    Nice try with the gaslighting. Google's AI "summaries" get things wrong all the time even now.

    Only people actually do care about the process by which the products they use were created. It's our job, as experts who build things, to educate our audiences why and how we build…

    I'm of the deepest conviction AI-generated text should not show up at all. Proving that however can be difficult (obvious LLM tells aside). Requiring evidence of authentic human au…

    Since you know very little about Jarred, why are you not investigating all of the issues raised about how Jarred has run that project from the get-go? It's not childish in the leas…

    Write code like an agent will never touch it, that's my motto. (Because it's true.)
