In a reductionist view yeah but blog generators and agent harnesses sit at a different spectrum than an EHR/Excel/whatever other insanely complex edge case ridden work you can think of

Since an agent could write all the boilerplate needed, I wonder if that offers any more reason to choose Ember over other frameworks/libraries now

Since it's too late to edit: I am not disagreeing that humans are innately valuable. I am disagreeing with citing Genesis for that.

> That is to say, this is an incredibly widely and deeply held value by a vast number of people over millenia, not to mention the many others whose religions may contain analogous claims. So fallacious?

I complete agree humans have this innate value. But I don't see how the Genesis quote is useful to support that

Citing "God created man in his own image" for robustness doesn't really land well. I'm not even an atheist either.

- Ending something with "happy to ..." (usually "happy to help") - And a variant of the above is omitting the subject, "happy to" instead of "I am happy to" - Codex refers to "the spine" of

It's very interesting how fascinating the Vikings still are to many people. They did a lot of amazing things, and a lot of horrible things.

Saying "LLM" now sounds dumb. Just say "model". Some are no longer "large" and that is arbitrary.

How did they convince Claude they hadn't stolen it?

And if I don't care about cost, what about actual performance?

by triyambakam 6mo ago
I had put an example like "decision locked" in my CLAUDE.md and a few days later 20 instances of Claude's responses had phrases around this. I thought it was a more general model tic until I had Claude look into it.

The ancient Hawaiians had two main seasons - winter and summer, marked by the rising of Pleiades in the East during the winter and the setting of the Pleiades in the West summer, which corresponds roughly to November and May. And lines roug

This sounds like moving the goal posts but Gemini is generally not a good model. Try Sonnet

It's proper grammar but I have only ever seen journalists use it. It is a strong signal in my experience

Smells like LLM written. Maybe useful advice though. Who actually writes the hyphen in compound modifiers (or even knows what that is)? E.g. "team-level" instead of "team level". > I couldn't have been happier. A

I didn't say it must be always correct

by triyambakam 11mo ago
But what was the original estimate? And even so I'm not saying it must be completely and always correct. I'm saying it seems wild to have no starting point, to simply give up.

I just find it so oversimplified that I can't believe you're sincere. Like you have entirely no internal heuristic for even a coarse estimation of a few minutes, hours, or days? I would say you're not being very introspective
