The sycophancy is one reason I stopped using it.

Everything is genius to it.

I asked about putting ketchup, mustard, and soy sauce in my light stew and that was “a clever way to give it a sweet and umami flavour”. I couldn’t find an ingredient it didn’t encourage.

I asked o3 if my code looked good and it said it looked like a seasoned professional had written it. When I asked to critique an intern who wrote that same code it’s suddenly concerned about possible segfaults and nitpicking assert statements. It also suggested making the code more complex by adding dynamically sized arrays because that’s more professional than fixed size.

I can see why it wins on human evaluation tests and makes people happy — but it has poor taste and I can’t trust it because of the sycophancy.

Does Data’s head getting buried in that cave for hundreds of years count?

Political assassinations in Canada and Election interference

Not a fan of this… they cross too many lines domestically here in Canada to share intelligence with in my opinion

Cops should be held to a higher standard with their given authority.

Yelling racial slurs while arresting someone should be a hate crime put at minimum harassment.

Doesn’t he have immunity now?

You would not believe the number of people I’ve interviewed who excel at making Python read like ass.

Quitting my last job for this one might be the best thing I’ve done since I tricked my wife into marrying down.

My mental and physical health has improved a ton.

This is how I feel about vibe coding

“Claude can you help me with this”

“Sure, taking a look”

you’ve exceeded your allotted token limit

Oops.

This is why I call scrum masters scrumlords.

Thankfully my boss is hands off so I took a walk and then worked on an internal tooling side project that really only I will appreciate.

I wish I had that luxury with work.

All my personal stuff is 100% unaffected though!

This is my workday now

https://xkcd.com/303/

I store iso country codes and use them as the primary key in a countries table.

On today’s show we’re going build the quadrants largest Batleth and we’ll be putting an inboard motor on it. We’ll talk to Ranger Dan about controlling tribbles, and then Harold has a demonstration of some alternatives to pain sticks.

I just don’t think the US would think twice about detonating a nuke over Vancouver if it saved Seattle.

That concerns me greatly about a system like this.

Mars has that face silently judging me from afar.

What bothers me is it still gets a prominent spot in aggregators like Apple News.

Even if you block NatPo it gets shown to you just greyed out.

I’ve since quit that app and I only u use CBC and paid news (yay Canada News tax credit!), but most people do not.

That’s a bit fucked up.

The pedophile thing?

Nobody ever said competition was a bad thing.

I think we should tariff them for what we think their labour and environmental practices would be under our laws, and other than that let them sell their products here.
