Thank you. I wish they had used a pairwise comparison system like the one built by pil0u [1] for this. If I hadn't looked at all of them in advance, I would've had to go back to "n…

Maybe this will lead to more business for tailors doing alterations, assuming the clothes people end up buying are expensive enough to justify it.

Someone did an analysis and concluded that it appear to be at least partly (~10-15%) LLM-generated, or at least LLM-translated (see comments): https://www.lesswrong.com/posts/s58hD…

LLM slop article. But as for the topic: To me, "Kanban with refinements and retrospectives" is the sweet spot. The concept of Sprint seems not only superfluous but to add unnecessa…

This sounds like it only changes the framing, but in reality it would lead to completely different behavior, so the "leave the gun alone" option would likely lead to far fewer deat…

Made me stop reading a few paragraphs in. I don't have a "problem" in the ethical sense either, but as the sibling comment notes, the way LLMs write is rather grating. To make matt…
