Opus 5.5 fixes many of the issues in Fable 5.1 but he drops the ball constantly. We run a prototype, fine tune some parameters. Then he transitions it to production. It looks off. So, did you port the curve and its parameters? No, he just vibe coded a new naive implementation.

I find rationalists to be earnest, intelligent people deeply committed to the betterment of humanity and willing to take ideas seriously — traits they share with fascists, communists, and religious fundamentalists.

So, concentration of powers and removal of dissent so we can go to war sooner?

Team humanist comes across as naive but morally grounded. Team rationalist is technically convincing but unlikeable and increasingly untrustworthy.

This is what happens when you have a Popperian Open Society and a diverse demographic. Pick one.
