Agree. His argument is clever though in that if you disagree, you may appear like you think you are good at something that you are actually bad at :)

I'm curious what kind of prompting or context you are providing before asking for a liquid soap script - or if you've tried using Cursor and providing a bunch of context with documentation about liquid soap as part of it. My guess

The point wasn't chatgpt, it was the question I was introducing that hadn't been raised yet. I don't view the output of chatGPT to be likely bullshit, nowadays it surprises me if it is wrong about a factual question like the

If I had just said, “from what I can tell after briefly researching” maybe I wouldn’t be taking so much heat on this one - the point wasn’t chatgpt, but to raise a point that hadn’t yet been raised in this discussion- what exactly is legal

If what chatgpt said is incorrect, I would love to know. Are you not interested in the legal details of these cases so we know what can be fought under current law and not? The cruelty of the actions should be judged harshly, and in the lon

I think it's important to know exactly what happens in these cases to not be vulnerable to counterarguments. It seems in addition to the cruelty of selectively enforcing laws, it is clearly illegal - so we can fight these actions in co

Maybe I could refine it to, what motivates many people who are attracted to wokeness is an earnest desire to do good things. I do think good comes out of it, along with bad. But we can set that aside and refine the point that I don't t

by krosaen 2y ago
His accounting for what attracts people to wokeness is incomplete. Certainly there are prigs in the mix, but for most, I think it's that wokeness, as he defines it, is often tightly coupled with good things, like sexual harassment bein

This is really cool, glad to see someone making a real product out of this - have seen demos in the past. One thing I've always wondered is if this could be made to work for group video chats - depending on the tile you are looking at,

I know sql pretty well and still find value in this kind of tool - creating schemas and inserting data is a clunky part of sql - the query language is where it really shines. So I can imagine using this to quickly insert some data or to get

I have found libtree to be nicer, sounds like it doesn’t suffer the same risk. But there is the added inconvenience of installing it - but usually mild given prebuilt binaries for common distributions.

Yegge no longer thinks knowing these kinds of details matter so much, can’t find the exact timestamp but it relates to the skills shifting to being really good at prompting and quickly learning what is relevant https://youtu.be&#

Cool, thanks for these details - perhaps I'm underestimating how much faster I could be learning with a tool like this - I also think how much time one is spending makes a difference - I would be chipping away a few hours a week max, h

Sofas of the last 15 years suck if you think buying a stylish looking $1000-2000 sofa is going to last. Try $4000-5000 and you will get a really nice long lasting sofa. You can repair / restuff / reupholster it every 10 or 15 ye

Seems like the market rate for a well made sofa is more like 3-4k these days. If you think you're getting that for 1k you will be disappointed.

Same - this is the kind of article that would have been easy to write in a lazy finger pointing way, but it's clear they took pains to justify their arguments and IMO didn't fall into the anti-work reactionary trap.
