On the one hand we have Claude doing my work for me, on the other hand it is laced with unoriginality, on the gripping hand everyone will get all references. All witty stuff disapp…

Okay. In my experience asking an LLM requires you to know the right set of questions and the right process for working through the problem that you’re having. You have to know the …

as soon as you start calling a group of stock tickers the “magnificent 7” they’re destined to underperform, as that’s a feelings based assessment and many investors will continue t…

“When the stocks don’t go up they don’t match the market which generally goes up”

I mean, technically… I’ve lived in that world. You just go back 25 years. We had the Dewey decimal system (card catalog) and the library, hard copy encyclopedias. You could also as…

Excellent point my colleague has the exact opposite incentive.

Sure, if we’re going to go that broad. People are already leaning heavily towards learning nothing instead of using Wikipedia. I guess to me it has to be comparable to be an altern…

The free alternative to Wikipedia is the library, not “don’t learn anything new ever”. I find Claude is surprisingly similar to a confident but incorrect coworker, with the benefit…

The solution is inexpensive drugs for addicts, minimum standard of living, programs for getting off drugs. But there’s an incentive to make drugs expensive and people desperate, an…

LLM is a powerful tool but it still doesn’t have the context that a person would have. A million tokens is a drop in the bucket compared to the overall context that the person guid…

I remember when there was a kid who kept installing this and the Chex doom on the school pcs in 7th grade. GTA was pretty controversial as a game even though it is incredibly tame …

People have a strong financial incentive to not understand this. It’s subprime mortgages.

20 juniors become some % of 20 seniors. and some % of that principals. Even if it lives up to the claims you’re still destroying the pipeline for creating experienced people. It is…

Yep, paid modding is Bethesda cooking and eating the golden goose. As soon as it happens it kills what makes their games special.

Some claim we are centaurs, we say Neigh!

The thing I really love about magic is that so much of it boils down to “I practiced for years and developed a seemingly superhuman ability to manipulate this object”. I really rel…

People downplay how important consistency is when trying to make changes to their lifestyle. Walking is good but whatever the exercise, a sustainable plan is best. Same reason behi…

Had someone put up a project plan for something that was not disclosed as LLM assisted output. While technically correct it came to the wrong conclusions about the best path forwar…

Dont forget the “murder for hire” user story

Yes, using anything less than the finest of French grapes from the Champagne region is just a sparking qbit.

I feel like a cut is a very specific type of weight loss where the person gets down to an unusually low body fat %. It’s to the point where each bit of fat loss is a significant po…

> Losing weight without losing muscle mass is very hard. Yes it is. > It requires extreme diets like a protein sparring modified fast where 80%+ of your calories are from lean prot…

Sometimes if everyone else is the problem you are the problem.

You’ll know when he ends every meeting with “dummies, get back to work”

There’s a strong argument that checklists are the opposite of what you want. In your example if I give you a list of ports to close, you might close those ports and leave all other…
