From the second paragraph:

> July-August 2026: the warning shot that was real

I am so tired of reading unfiltered AI slop like this. What, as opposed to the fake warning shot mentioned nowhere in the article?

For over a decade, Google's been wearing the environmentally-friendly / carbon-neutral label as part of their public-facing brand values. It's definitely been eating into their CapEx then, and this isn't much different.

This is beautiful work! First, I thought this would involve using PCA to go from 3D to 2D, which would result in an easier selector to use, but at the expense of representing every person.

Then, I thought this would stop at using the U-space vectors (the ones that form the basis of the PCA image) and their corresponding ellipse to form our color space, but no, the function fitting is a very slick idea, even if it was executed by hand.

Lastly, I love the presentation of sampling from different r values. Whether you sample from a fixed r value or a range of r values, I bet this has great applications in game design or animation.

I still don't quite get the manual data labeling process at the beginning? It seems like it would encode some bias, but the consistency of the first point cloud and the results certainly speak for themselves.

When you have Claude Code indepedently author commits and PRs and merge them in, it'll always credit itself as an author. I assume it showing up in the README is a byproduct of the same logic.

Every time I come across a pudding article, it stops me in my tracks. They're always so rewarding!

I have the same issue. Perma-black loading screen that resolves as soon as I disable ublock origin. Using Firefox on Debian.

I interpret it a different way than that. I see application code and testing code as both a part of blue team. It's the code reviews and architectural critiques that are part of red team.

Personally, I've found GitHub's feature of AI PR reviewers exceptionally helpful. I think that's the type of red team LLM app Tao is describing here.

They made Claude Code available on their $20/month plan about two weeks ago. Your point still stands, of course.

I love the animation when you click "No" on "Do you want a new Pebble?". So extra.
