Of course in that order!

Step 3: Rehire key personnel at lower cost than whomever was fired in Step 1. Step 4: Take credit for cost reductions . . . and give yourself a raise!

My experience here (also Claude user) is that the model uses different tools in different contexts. I see rg more on frontend and grep more on backend work. I imagine it defaults to using the tool it has more learning around within the contexts it's reaching for and since for the most part it's 6 of one or half a dozen of the other you'll see environment specific usages for these tools in claude for now. I imagine eventually it'll standardize but we're early yet on such things.

If you'd told me a decade ago I'd finally learn some sed in 26 because I'd want to understand what the AI was doing I'd have told you you were crazy . . .

Of course they do - they're in the credentialing business.

Would a smart AI accept such foolishness? I doubt it. It'll still use something deterministic under the hood - it'll just have a conversational abstraction layer for talking to the Product person writing up requirements.

We used to have to be able to communicate with other humans to build something. It seems to me that's what they're trying to take out of the loop by doing the things that humans do: talk to other humans and give them what they're asking for.

I too am not a fan of the dystopias we're ending up in.

Seems like it's time to remove links to outdated versions. Replace them with your resume?

In 2001 websites weren't what they are today. It was 5 years before jQuery's initial release . . . people needed to learn the proper terms somewhere in those days.

They would fine them by having a court case and saying they are guilty and owe money. Collecting on it would be awfully difficult, but you know, people do like trips to Europe.

That said, I think fining the company seems pretty plausible. They won't, but it'd be nice if they did.

That sounds amazing! As a founder I'd be over the moon for it.

Sounds super unique. Please include me too if you do any public follow up? I'd actually enjoy reading those, myself as I've collected folktale collections for years!

> I see no mention of race or location

Location: "Think about Japan", "Compare that to the US" - this is a pretty straightforward comparison by location about culture based on location.

It presumes a bunch and I'm grunching (and showing my age by using that term), and I'm not trying to disagree with you . . . just highlight the comparison you said you could not see.

Thank you for doing this important work!

How do you source lightbulbs? I have yet to find a reliable LED bulb that doesn't hum or flicker on a dimmer despite being advertised as "dimmable" . . .

You think there's law on the books that forces companies to speak honestly? And that someone is going to enforce it?

Yes, Ms. Pacman has the DDs, which is why PacMan himself gives her the D.

3 Ds.
