I've had good results getting AI to do create both an app guide, and do naive UAT testing - it sometimes gets lost in the weeds, and sometimes hyper focuses on things that aren't important, but it also clears the deck of knuckleheaded things that would waste human UAT testers time. I run it any time major features goes in, and it regularly clears up things well.

I feel like your suggestion would be a nice organic extension of that same practice (at the cost of more infrastructure/tokens)

It might be, when used sparingly, but when it's the first sentence in a wall of text as Claude goes way off the deep end on a two page description it becomes the easiest readily available tell that you're about to be frustrated.

Humans are very good at pattern recognition - Claude is _incredibly_ repetitive in the way it starts to struggle to communicate. I think there's also a ton of overlap in the Jargon instead of Usefulness that developers see in annoying middle management/salespeople. Circle back, synergy blah blah.

I don't think the individual turns of phrase are inherently problematic - but the process is triggering.

"Webmasters" - now there's a term I haven't heard since 1998!

The vast majority of bots are still failing the header test - we organically arrived at the except same filtering in 2025. The bots followed the exact same progression too. One ip, lie about the user agent, one ASN, multiple ASNs, then lie about everything and use residential IPs, but still botch the headers

I don't think #notAllTeslaOwners is going to convince people not to have these visceral emotional reactions. I'm not entirely sure what people expect when the worlds richest man makes a point of trying to make millions of people unhappy, trolling or otherwise. This is the natural outcome.

The article specifies those as the source

Hm. I thoroughly disliked it - 100 layers of abstraction, glue and duct tape in the cloud to construct a rube Goldberg machine that doesn't work. It felt like everything wrong with modern tech.

Haha I'm sure you mean "barcades", but that was amusing.

Yeah, I loathe it. I use Linux (of all stripes), Windows, android etc. So it's not brand loyalty. The UX is trash.

I think you may have missed the joke - they were implying Github was using Copilot internally, causing the outages, due to poor output. Not that Copilot itself was unavailable (although that may be true, also)

While I agree with this as a general rule, it ignores an entire class of problem. I work in a data preservation space - if we let people delete things every time they wanted to, it'd be a disaster. Instead we 'tombstone' it (hide from everyone but admin), then let someone with some space from the process confirm it actually should be deleted. We've averted dozens of disasters this way.

I'd argue the user must feel in control, as you say, but not necessarily _be_ in control.

At least in our experience, it's graduated based on age and ability. Soft fruits and vegetables with a glorified shape cutter. Firmer things with a plastic or ceramic knife. Harder things with metal.

Not dissimilar to what you'd do at home, except supervised closely with peers and integrated into the classroom.

Edit: I should mention that gross and fine motor control is a really big focal point in general. Like how writing things down has been shown to improve memory, other forms of tactile interaction increase engagement and learning.
