I think this is great! i've long wanted a future where i can stock my fridge and cupboards with goods and scan the barcodes in and be tracking what their expirations are to better manage when i need to restock or throw things out

Which ones? Because there are a lot of instances where genuinely good, productive and useful programs were cut.

A true loss for synthwave music. His music was amazing and rich and exciting in a way that many artists fail to reach.

Since when?

this is "too little, too late" for me. I'll stick with opus 4.8.

I was surprised to see .cern as a TLD - i would not expect it to need a family of websites in the way .gov or .mil do.

surprised at the responses to this post. While I thought the title was dumb, the underlying thesis is not the ragebait I was expecting, and I actually agree with the author.

LLM's work best when they can call a tool and observe the success/failure of a change. If you're HITL then you're the tool, but the result is the same. only slower.

I'm working on a 2D game (pixi.js) with claudecode, and after I moved some logic into a webworker the LLM created a headless simulation exercise of it and would run this to test performance changes against (or in exploration of an issue), which I was surprised by.

I also created some robust graphs & metrics which were easy to screenshot and upload to claude. this was a HITL but it gave claude a lot more insight into what's actually happening instead of guessing when the browser plays the game and has FPS drop.

LLM's do best when they can see what their code is doing. If you can't remove yourself from that cycle of testing you should at least optimize it so you can give rich errors.

it started out alright, but then it just became obvious.

was the give away for me.

I haven't told you to do anything, only highlighted that you can choose how to live your life, including not using LLM's.

Believe it or not, some people actually do derive a great deal of value from LLM's and it's also ok if you don't or can't.

That's a choice you are free to make, just like you're free to shrug and not use the internet or computers.

Let us hope this only accelerates the proliferation of local models

Thanks Claude.

wow... this is me

Slashing prices is only going to go so far...you couldn't pay me to use chatGPT or codex. I used chatGPT for a long time but once i switched to anthropic i could sense a higher quality and a lot less frustration and correction on my part.
