Could someone show me what a shared helper would look like in this case? This code looks easily readable to me and I fear abstracting it will just make it harder to reason about. Is it just variable_with_a_better_name =…
It's not wrong, though.
I'd love to know what one of those conversations looked like. "Using this construct in this part of the code increases it's performance by half of a percent. Obviously, this should be changed." "That code isn't in a hot…
Why are there differences at all? Unplanned differences based on training data sets? Or are the companies behind the LLMs trying to shape discourse through their models? I've been pushing the idea to people I know that…
That one for me is particularly painful. We were playing the alpha release before the game officially came out after work. I still work at the same place, though I've moved jobs within it a few times.
If you have hundreds of Steam games you bought through sales events, then that changes the calculus a bit.
> Cynically, I want to blame it on the absurd lack of empathy of rural Americans and a complete lack of ability to imagine day-to-day lifestyles that do not match their own. Doesn't that cut both ways, though? Controls…
This divide will never heal. I have no idea of how to get either side interested in the idea. I don't see a path to victory from any direction.
It's possible to care about more than one thing at a time.
Seat belts aren't forced on you - if you want to not use them and face the risk of fines, you can do so. Media ratings systems are informational, you can choose to let your kids watch R rated movies or above. Are they…
I kind of have a soft spot for the human race, I think it's worth the extra effort to try, at least.
I was thinking along those lines when I wrote it. I do keep the thought in mind when interacting with an LLM that it could mislead me because they always sound so confident and yet get many things wrong, allowing me to…
One more very minor step towards making the human race meteor-proof.
I just use it as a "mentor". A captive demon that has to answer my questions, no matter how trivial. Writing the code is the fun part for me, searching for answers to questions can be fun but I'd rather just ask the AI.…

It happened to me, and I'm 60. I lived in a rural area, maybe that's why.
I'd suggest going the route of having Claude teach you what you need to know. How do I uppercase this string? What's the best way to tackle this problem? Is there a standard way to do this thing? Then you learn along…
Track down the short story it's inspired by, Eight O'Clock in the Morning by Ray Nelson. I had read the short story somewhere, maybe in a compilation, and was delighted when the movie turned out to be obviously inspired…
I get a blank white screen in firefox on windows. I don't consider this to be blue, so I guess their blue is not my blue.
Do LLMs even learn? The companies that build them build new models based partly on the conversations the older models have had with people, but do they incorporate knowledge into their neural nets as they go along? Can…
I'm starting to do this at home, but the instinct to just do a web search is still there. I'm only using Claude Code at work because they are paying for it, so why not use it. I think I've used maybe 5% of my tokens for…
Also having the cursor show up in the proper place on a new form and having tab order work.
> An interesting side effect might be that only people locked out from using LLMs will learn how to program in the future, as vide coding doesn't teach you the fundamentals. This is the strange part for me. I'm one of…
So give it someone else's birthday instead.
Or take it one step further: 1. curate a list of creators you like on a local html page 2. follow a link into YT 3. refuse to log in to avoid Google keeping even more data on you 4. run uBlock Origin on Firefox to avoid…
