I was not interested in his phone until my eyes were drawn to the image of some great big jubbly boobies staring back at me. I’m sure you’ve encountered the phenomenon of noticing something unusual within your line of sight. If you’re going

You’re being condescending and invading my space, now fuck off. Am I doing it right? No. That’s responding with aggression, to an otherwise placid comment. I posit that you would be better off practicing being less offended and stuck up you

Serious boundary? He put tits in front of my eyes. Am I supposed to remember to keep my eyes pinned to the floor when out in public? What a terrible way you must live. I’m afraid to say, that if you want a boundary, go home. Otherwise, acce

Yeah, you see, I don’t think you’ve quite understood the art of talking to anyone. It doesn’t happen by staring at the floor and minding your own business. Quite the opposite, mostly. Despite illusions and every misguided attempt, when in p

The other day I saw a guy on the train looking at pictures he was actively receiving of a topless woman. He was clearly enjoying it, in his own little world, so I leaned over and said “don’t get scammed buddy”. His anger brewed for a few mi

The difference is that _you_ wiped your own hard drive. Even if prompt injection arrives by a scraped webpage, you still pressed the button. All these claws throw caution to the wind in enabling the LLM to be triggered by text coming from e

This. I’ve seen so many tools solving problems that already have solutions lately because LLMs allow people to run off and “fix” the problem their way before they can a chance to discover existing, more appropriate solutions. The next step

It's the same story with these people running 12 parallel agents that automatically implement issues managed in Linear by an AI product team that has conducted automated market and user research. Instead of making things, people are ma

Don’t use it, or give it access to nothing important, therefore vastly limiting its potential. That’s the only way. Prompt injection is a thing, and a lot of vibe coding, Gas Town, Ralph-loop enthusiasts are vehemently ignoring the risk bel

There’s simply not enough of a market for these bigger orgs to be truly interested/invested in audio, video and even image to an extent. They’ll wait for progress to be made and then buy the capability/expertise/talent when t

And OpenClaw is nothing revolutionary. It’s all shit we could do before OpenClaw. It’s just that no one was stupid enough to do it. Now everyone has gone crazy.

I mean, ppq.ai (which I’ve never heard of) had zero to do with the commoditisation of LLMs. The industry did that. And services like OpenRouter are far more serious and responsible in this area than this ppq.ai is.

It appears to me that the same people who think “vibe coding” is a great idea, are the same people who think “Gas Town” is the future, and “OpenClaw” detractors are just falling behind. For your sake, I’m not saying they’re wrong. I’m just

I still read the LLMs output quite critically and I cringe whenever I do. LLMs are just plain wrong a lot of the time. They’re just not very intelligent. They’re great at pretending to be intelligent. They imitate intelligence. That is all

That’s cool. I know context windows are arbitrarily larger now because consumers think that larger window = better, but I think the sentiment that the model can’t even use the window effectively still stands? I still find LLMs perform best

No, when we write code it has a an absolute and specific meaning to the compiler. When we write words to an LLM they are written in a non-specific informal language (usually English) and processed non-deterministically too. This is an incre

Sorry friend, if you can’t identify the important differences between a compiler and an LLM, either intentionally or unintentionally (I can’t tell), then I must question the value of whatever you have to say on the topic.

(Replying to myself because hn) That’s not the only difference at all. A good use of an LLM might be to ask it what the difference between using an LLM and writing code for a compiler is.

Actually, we’ve been formally declaring the logic of programs to compilers, which is something very different.
