  • And always with skepticism!

    A couple other cool things I’ve seen experts do:

    The first: finding bugs which, considering the scarcity of humans capable of bugfinding doesn’t seem so bad in our weeks with finite hours.

    Next, really tedious work that experts do know how to do, but simply wouldn’t prioritize because they have lives. A big one seems to be reverse engineering, like to give new life to ancient hardware. “I connected <ewastey thing> over USB at <IP>, give me control.”








  • Lotta the AI hate makes a lotta sense!

    Are you forced to use it for work? I’m thinking folks who love AI and/or use it daily will be in the best position to recognize the Claudisms they’ve seen hundreds and even thousands of times.

    Oh and get this,

    apparently that model loves to say “load bearing” and there was a commenter who picked that phrase up from their colleagues writing and started using it in their speech. They were asked why they were talking like Claude! They strongly dislike AI and never used it and were caught totally off guard. (Stinky situation, now that I mention it it’d make me want to only borrow phrases from pre-2022 books or something.)











  • Say you don’t care about cleanliness of the outside bag, you trust the little seal if any on the bag, and… the order is made fresh AND picked up AND delivered INSTANTANEOUSLY!

    Magic! …except… $20 for $7 of food?!?!

    PS: general public shouldn’t have that driver cleanliness concern, portions are generally extravagant nationwide (fast food too for combo meals … OK anything beyond bog standard combo), assume extremely-delayed food is rare enough it’s NBD—and still we are on the same page (where it counts!)

    Simplifying yours then:

    You pay $20 for $7 of food, how many more times you gonna do that :D (tech office workers say “MORE!” but, normal people… priced like gold for normals) [low mobility etc. excepted]
