Read this. All of it.

100 percent, this. It shows that Apple is well into the creative-bankruptcy phase of corporate lifecycle.

God forbid you and your fridge body "come for me." LOL
Live by the sword, die by the sword. Those who pick fights with me should understand that I will find out who is really pulling the strings and come for them, not just their puppets …

I've been making a kaiju game in the browser on the side, inspired by 70s tokusatsu shows. The buildings are hollow and built from thin wall sheets like the old Tsuburaya miniatures. Jump into one and the walls crack into shards, and once the ground floor goes it pancakes.

I worked on this stuff so long, with so many different pieces to it, that by the end Claude had totally forgotten the original thing we were doing.

I am reliably informed that the thumbs-up in Slack is seen by Millenials and Zoomer as passive-aggressive or sarcastic. Gotta retrain my @Yammer-addled brain.

Yeah, he's always been full of shit.
There he is... the walking talking turd we always knew him to be. Just last week, he was ejaculating over the remade Adobe suite.

Absolutely. I have always objected to this use of the word "taste." It trivializes the importance of this. I have used the term "product sense," but "judgement" is great too.
taste is basically a nonsense word that most assume to mean aesthetics. clearer would be objective vs. subjective judgement. AI is naturally strong at objective judgement and subjective judgement might just be objective judgement when observed in volume.

It's really quite something when doing stuff with LLMs that you have to oscillate between deliberately built verification systems and just yelling at your little demon servant differently
