this whole thread reads like russian propaganda

the house of cards will soon fall and then the US will be in a recession. And there will be zero regulation until that happens.

bunch of haters in these comments.

you know, i think this is great and thank you for sharing

i wish i could do syntax highlighting in my head

and this is why you read the code

Most people don't use flash cards at all. So if their experience with them is terrible then why would they keep doing it? Also effort can be fun. Working out is effortful and most people don't do it. So, they should go to the gym and try to have a good time. If they aren't, maybe the advice to do some 5x5 program or Jocko whatever workout is not good for them. It's just a heuristic to stay motivated. But yeah, my friend just finished med school and memorized like 30k extremely complicated cards. He did not "have fun".

I love this. Did you make it? Why?

The best advice I've ever read about flash cards is if you are dreading to review, because you are forgetting your cards or they are too complicated, you are writing cards wrong. Learning is supposed to be fun! Also, Common Core should ship Anki decks. I seriously think so many problems with education stem from students not realizing that memorizing is actually very easy with FSRS, and thus struggling and hating learning.

there should be some law where publications have to track their brier scores

dungeon crawler carl is a great series. never read a litrpg in my life and i probably won't again but DCC is really fun. and calling it amenable to LLM is pretty reductive in a stupid way as the book absolutely could not be written by LLM

This is a beautiful and haunting book.

yeah, the "proactivity" of recent anthropic models and sophisticated bullshitting are bad, although my experience is that even on simple tasks i've never used a oss model that has consistently been better in terms of the quality of the result.

Frontier models are still better (everyone would use them if it was cheap). Open source models are capable on even non "simple" problems but I trust them less, even though I usually write plans for all changes, and they are worse at debugging. I recently converted my homelab to nixos and let's just say Deepseek failed and Fable did great (the night before getting killed)

As a phish fan, this is an especially sad read. I wonder what new developers might feel, if they have the same sense of wonder and joy, listening to a brand new jam, working with an agent to create something, learning a thing or two about development, and being proud. I hope so.

holy crap, I was literally imaging how I wanted something exactly like this yesterday! you are a hero!

it's not formal writing it's a blog post.

"Not as an aesthetic choice. Not as nostalgia. But as a thinking tool" is a perfectly normal sentence, and I think there is an equally bad trend of people assuming things are AI written and forget that AI was trained on human writing. But to your point, agreed there is a disconnect when things are in fact written by AI, but I skimmed the article anyway so to me it didn't matter lol.
