    Look you can be pedantic about the language all you want. I'm 100% for preferring saying LLM when you mean LLM. We're in a thread about AI surveillence. Note the "I imagine there a…

    Someone recently linked the "eating your seed corn" wiki page about AI and it feels like it sums it up. Except there's mass directives to eat as much seed corn as you can

    There's some short manga thing about an anthropomorphic floater if you like this vibe

    Using the broader label to imply good things about the narrow thing sucks. Like being pro "technology" means nothing

    A second agent reviewing it adversarially resolves some context rot. Whatever they trained these LLMs on will just infinitely double down so I break it with 1 layer of checking and…

    Wild because people wouldn't do that with a friend. Something about an LLM giving people info has this insidious stoleb valor to the LLMs work. Like that wasn't your thought, you j…

    Even over phone calls you get a sense so unless it's in timing it isnt demeanor either

    I don't understand some previous complaints. It's dense and verbose seem at ends to me. I know you probably don't consider it dense but wondering if someone can shed insight. I fin…

    Unless the party you prove it to is obligated to stay up forever and has service guarantees, yeah

    Especially if the path is well trodden. "Make me a kanban board for construction tasks. I want you to walk me through the process of hosting it" worked for me.

    do parents not control routers and cell plans? I feel like it would be easy to look here for header based solutions. They probably exist tbh. Then just ban your kid from VPNs.

    I know this is a plug but I thought of it, too! I hope this is the next benchmark they saturate. I like where Karpathy is going; I had the same thoughts about LLM generated slop sc…

    They can't even run a vending machine. I don't want to do a shallow dismissal, but I think there's a gulf between my understanding and yours. I hope it's me so I learn something. I…

    it's crazy because I've seen "implement flappy bird on an FPGA with VGA output" as a 2 week project to a human as something immediately understandable. Maybe it's the smoothness of…

    I don't understand why verifying isn't in the loop. If you gave an LLM: "is this statement consistent with this RAG data?" it would do well. It feels lazy that this isn't built int…

    The grid doesn't give you money in these locations. They give you credits for future consumption. You can only spend this on energy. If you always have a surplus, you will just rac…

    they're saying you might not use the extra energy if your PV runs year round. If you continuously had a year round surplus, you wouldn't have a need to buy any energy, so the credi…

    It's justa caveat is side to the main point. No human would say that. It's like a load bearing utility shed
