Ah, someone who doesn't have a valid argument but feels compelled to argue anyway, and so resorts to personal attacks. I know, it sucks to be in such a position. But you'll feel better once you accept reality. Buck up.

Confusion usually surfaces immediately, so it can be steered properly. Being sure of a decision that turns out to be wrong usually means a bug that could bite when you least expect it.

Running 24/7 doesn't make sense though, unless you're providing a service to others. But if it's just you then there has to be time taken to review+test what's being done and craft new prompts. And if that local har

Of course it's still lacking. In contrast, how long does it take for a human to go from birth to being able to break any world records? How many years of dedication just to hone themself for that particular thing? And is a human breaki

There will be no escape. Prepare to be outperformed in all the things.

It does visibly use a few more tokens in the short term. But it hurts Claude's ability in the long term if removed because it has to either think more every time it encounters that section in the code (more invisible thinking token

It isn't about making readers not think about foo. It's about biasing thought about foo in a particular direction. And I've seen it work multiple times: agent mentions it encountered X comments in the code and revised its act

Yep and the point is moot in that sense. There are those who will use the gloves as prescribed, same they wouldn't stoop to beating up a person of interest, etc. And there are those who will go directly for the sensitive areas out of s

With a little imagination, anything can be misused and abused.

All covered in the article. Touching face, chest, groin, etc is forbidden. And the shock is local to the touched area (unlike tasers).

Looking into git history is an active decision that's usually only done after something undesirable happens, and now there's the need to try and find why. Better to have the context passively loaded as part of working with the rel

> useless, noisy and confusing That's your perspective. For Claude that's an extension of its thinking, which makes it work better. Just like the person who takes notes so they have references for later. Take it away and you&#x

It's likely not helpful to you, but it is to Claude. Basically a memory entry at the exact point of relevance, with the same caveats. One advantage though is it survives cloning, so another using the project benefits.

Those verbose comments provide context for why something is there way it is, so it can take those decisions in account when making changes in the future.

A nice idea that I've made a few attempts to implement myself, but somehow always end up with more than I intend. I'll just use this to... seed.

The physical work before was never distributed either (which is what makes them economically valuable), so the the point is mostly moot. I say mostly because at least when these neglected works become part of a training corpus, the knowledg

Automating input is just sending character codes. It's all wonderfully simple and uniform.

That's what the grid crop should handle. The detail is retained at that level, and then everything is logically stitched together again using the lower-res-full-image as reference. That's going to be 2x token usage at minimum thou

Copyright should be banished out of existence so information, which is a trivially reproduced intangible, can be freely copied and distributed anywhere it can be useful. Instead of having the crap like what happened with the Internet Archiv

You can't compare an island or food to books though, because the former are only really valuable in their atomic form. Like if you take detailed pictures, people can't live on or eat those pictures. You scan books though and all t

You don't really need metadata to automate in a terminal. Literally everything is there in the clear and ANSI is used for control. It's all characters; no need to think about pixels (I made something that automates TUIs[0] BTW. Fo

Was it greed? Or was it a unified vision?

Why should they buy the books then if they can't do what they want with them? Just leave them wherever they are to rot and eventually be unceremoniously dumped anyway, without being preserved in any form. Some things are just unavoidab

It's easier to automate TUIs, since it's just text.
