France is one of the most well known countries, this old Prospero isn't that famous. It's more like Guinea and someone came up with New Guinea. Oh, wait.

Yeah although my M4 is more powerful I somehow don't perceive it much and it's so heavy and gets hot. My aging M1 is still snappy for most workloads, the battery holds well, it's light. Only thing I resent is the stupid touch bar instead of proper F keys.

But I'd say it's the exception. In general it's better to wait for later generation.

Vigilantism [0,1] isn't ok in a modern democratic society but if the society tolerates neo-nazis and they get kicked ass it's the least of my problems and far from the terrorism definition.

Terrorism targets the mainstream population, not a bunch of radicals.

This plus auto-discovery of nested non-root CLAUDE.mds in a more complex setup (monnorepo or even a big project with different parts)

Beautifully put. Software is ok. It's not going to fix our broken world. If AI could at least find cure for some illnesses that would be great. Or decrease social injustice and help with global warming. But it's likely going to do the exact opposite.

I yearn for the old days of bad photoshop/wordart/powerpoint flyers.

They were visually bad but honest and sometimes soulful or playful.

The AI slop that's everywhere now looks superficially more professional but it's very busy, samey, unnatural and it really turns me off.

Less violent goes a long way.

In 20 years of my career I haven't seen humans generate correct a11y. When prompted and given quality reference (e.g. UK gov design system) LLMs can nowadays beat 19 out of 20 web devs.

Thanks out can also hook it to Playwright with Axe and let it run assessments.

Then they should stop the development and focus on the identifying of consciousness. But wait, there's money to be made now so screw that and just talk big words to press.

It might be readable to agents but to me it reads like a manic babble.

It's a topic that interests me a lot, I am not a blind AI hater and I can usually stomach LLM prose without issues but I am lost and repulsed here.

Rather cleptocracy. Pedocracy or kakistocracy would also fit.

I don't care what was "disproven" or if it's a placebo.

I raised vitamin D intake in winter, I take betaglucans and if I feel like I am starting to get under the weather I take 2-3g of vitamin C per day.

Since we started that, no colds or flus for me or my wife and we have a kindergarten kid.

If we are pulling quotes out of a hat, why not some OG one?

“He who oppresses the poor taunts and insults his Maker, But he who is kind and merciful and gracious to the needy honors Him.” Proverbs 14:31

If you have some sort of compliance requirements, you need to update because of the onslaught of CVE vulnerabilities in the older versions. They are mostly bogus like "regexp DOS" but you have to satisfy the process and update anyway.

The fonts, the cards, the copy are all hallmarks of Claude Code.

While the aesthetic doesn't spark joy for me, the overall execution is great, the presentation flow and interactive boxes are very nice.
