"taking things one flower at a time", says no one... but people should :)

the game is bot approved! try now for true agi

even if you think agents write "reasonable" (rust) code/tests, don't let it define the invariants for your domain. "plausible validation" shouldn't be good enough. _look at the code_ (at least if you don't have _unlimited token_ and can't _fix everything_ with that)

I think there’s different levels of jargon. Some deserve to stay and everyone should know about them, even non-technical people, but many are only useful for technical people in a field and are okay for that purpose, but feel like “inside baseball”. The problem is not a lack of technical terms or that they’re used, there’s a real necessity for them by technical people, the issue is not putting enough work to find less technical or simpler definitions for non technical people. Monoid is certainly universal enough that people should just learn what they are. But its typical definition could still be improved somewhat for non-technical people. Monad probably is in the same category. I get there’s always a tradeoff with being absolutely precise vs more understandable, again the issue is not enough effort is put into finding simpler more clearer description, people are just said to learn all the technical jargon and definitions. I don’t know why we’re so allergic to thinking of additional simpler or more understandable alternative definitions for non-technical people. At the end of the day although unwillingly jargon also acts as a gatekeeper making a subject seem more confusing or difficult than it has to be. We tend to converge on technical definitions over time, but not as well on non-technical ones. The only reason I can think of is that it doesn’t seem worth the time and effort, since technical people are the ones who need definitions the most and technical ones are probably the best, and non-technical people care less and have less need for knowing the subject at all, so why bother? Just cram anyone who wants to become an expert or learn through the technical definitions. But I doubt the current status quo is the best we can do.

#lockedin tis so easy

It's snack time y'all!

this was written during a much darker phase of life, and reading it now, it feels like i had the overall idea pretty penned down even then. life takes its turns as it does.

one thing is nice with llms, it has made things very easy to work in domains that you're not familiar with! (given that you have ppl who can validate it)

Timeline polluted by _so many_ ppl qting dhh 🫠🫠🫠

🌕 there are lines you read, and there are lines that read you. you survive both, you survive another moment of reality punching you 🌕

honestly terminal skill issue if you can’t afford to pay your employees something fair. You’re probably an idiot.

idk.. that's a lotta guess for tiny work that it had to do! ngmi

lore accurate summer memory

let's see if this boots up :) this was my first "smart phone"! ~10+yrs ago, this phone made it possible for me to "see what lies" beyond my small little town! forever grateful to every single device ive owned!

When your younger sibling asks, "why would anyone keep two/three keyboards!" But he doesn't realise you are planning to buy another one👀👀👀

Quick fix sandwich saving me again tonight!

Clicked similar ones many a times, one more today :)

Almost got ran over while walking... What a way to start the day!

Will i finish this degree or will this degree see me get finished first, i wonder! Also, it's nice that i can take my time doing it as things go on in life, and not have to leave everything for a degree! (random click— chennai, last year)

nix mentioned!

i think i read the "most ai generated" report today, and i think no matter what you believe for llms being able to generate good code or not, "caring about all details that matter" isn't solved in any way. you cant have ai as a placeholder 4 you even if ai can do "more" than you.
