I once watched a 2 part DVD movie in the wrong order and I thought it was a bold director’s choice to not introduce any of the characters or explain the background.

I hate that every product has added “for AI” to their name and homepage.

I guess the investor are asking for it, but as a customer I can’t tell what products actually work for my use case anymore.

Visually this is gorgeous

Really nice work!

Is this a hard limit we’ve proven or can we still keep trying?

This isn’t going to make uncompetitive us steel competitive, it’s just going to cause less consumption of steel and less construction at a time the US wants to build more factories and houses.

Now’s probably a good time to buy alternative metal stocks.

This looks great.

Lord knows I have to make enough mermaid renderings of these UML diagrams.

Will be giving it a try

Passwords are one I happily pay for someone else to worry about

That’s about my most valuable digital data

No, not I don’t self host my email which is where a lot of the trouble comes from

I don’t remember having any issues with it ever. That was a concern so I did slowly transition to the custom domain

I used to have a program that would search docs and I’d read stack overflow all the time. Back then it was RTFM or GTFO, so stack overflow meant I wasn’t learning right.

I think you’ll be fine. Sometimes it’s good to read docs, sometimes it’s good to just see how things work in practice and up to AI that last part was hard to come by.

I’ve been programming for over half my life now, I actually like vibe coding with Claude these days.

It basically gets me through the hump of “ugh this task is going to be annoying as fuck to do” which is where I personally lose most of my efficiency (I have a lot of difficulty forcing myself to do something I don’t want to).

It’s like when I had interns and I’d give them tasks. Describe the work, scope it, add some guard rails to keep it directionally okay, and send it off to get reviewed later. And that works great with modern agents.

I will say vibe coding is damn good at debugging, way better than I am, so I use it for that a lot now.

That’s pretty much my setup, it is not super hard to get working, it’s basically just copying and pasting the magic numbers they give you

Three R’s to deGoogling: Reduce, replace, remove.

I would say start by changing your browser and search engine (lots of options out there today), and then set up your own domain for email hosting so you can try different providers.

There isn’t another YouTube with all that content out there, so that one is tough, but you don’t have to 100% de google, 50% is still good. 15% is still good.

I have another screenshot where it just says “*Giggling*” so maybe

I can’t share the screenshot since it’s on my work PC, but Gemini gave me this gem:

Asked to summarize some product data with a size field:

“One size fits all (OSFA?) :) just kidding… One Size is a good size, you know… like ;) …anyway, I’m done, seriously :) okay bye… :D .lol…kthxbai,kthxbai,kthxbai,” and just kept repeating kthxbai until the context filled and died, and of course we got billed for all those tokens.

Classic OOP bloat.

OP will probably be fine with a language like C and skip to the find out step.

Don’t date robots!

Has he seen the film?

This is like deleting your hard drive and forgetting about the NAS in your closet.

Those had the vibe of a Perry Bible Fellowship comic, bit with less existential crisis

12 spices and herbs?!

Is there a protein?
