Seems to be getting a polarized response. I quite enjoyed the it, but I do think the creator should have made it clearer that a) it is in fact a joke site and b) it does not consist of actual Claude responses.

It is easy to misinterpret this site, and therefore not "get" the joke.

The memory in the PC I put together early last year is now worth about three times the total cost of all the parts I used to build the thing. It is absolutely crazy.

I really like the reMarkable tablets, but they are still not quite the replacement for a paper notebook that I would like. I think the main problem is that the refresh-rate/software is slow enough that trying to "page through your notebook" to find specific notes is a grueling experience. The alternative is to just make lots of one page notes, but things still become difficult to find (not to mention you add a lot of stress coming up with good names for stuff...)

I was kinda shocked by the results of his informal survey, because this was a big focus of my ethics course in college. I guess a lot of developers either didn't get a CS degree, or their degree program didn't involve an ethics course.

The Skype for Business "installer" is too good at removing stuff.

Skype for Business stop working, I run "Repair" on the installation, progress bar zips to completion. Skype for Business is now gone. Oh, and so is the rest of Microsoft Office.

Indeed. I supported the absentee voting push during the pandemic, but one thing a lot of my friends don't understand is my opposition to absentee voting being normalized going forward.

In the US, implied employment contracts are "at-will". This means the employer may fire an employee for any reason (except reasons that explicitly break a law, like firing a black employee for being black). Likewise, an employee can quit at any time, with no recourse for the employer (2-weeks notice is a custom, not a contractual obligation under at-will employment).
