Not a vending machine. It’s clearly the third member of Daft Punk with a snaggletooth.

The next row would be “boss fires you thinking Claude can maintain the codebase.”

Guy in the front row: “hey, walk forward the same number of steps as there are R’s in ‘resurrection’.”

What exactly should LLMs be used for?

Finally, the Republicans will wake up and see Trump for what he really i-

Kidding, the Republicans are going to surgically implant their fingers in their ears and claim it’s a forgery by Democrats or some shit.

If you were looking for a choir to preach to, I imagine this is about as choir a choir as one could find. Where this image really needs to go is on Xitter. Not that anyone here is likely to go register a Xitter account to do so.

Have you seen Gotham?

The horrors persist, but so do $5 single-topping hot and ready-to-go.

Nope. I reply to bots quite frequently. I’m often the only commenter in the thread, but if I have something to say about what the bot posted, I’ll comment.

Often my comments are to make fun of blockchain or LLMs. But if the Hacker News bot posts a link to a blog post on underwater beekeeping and I have an opinion, I’ll post whatever I think adds to the conversation.

Nice try, Danny Ocean.

That sounds like exactly the sort of thing therapy is for. I’m no kind of expert, but it’s very likely there’s a lot of deeper things keeping you from developing achieving the kind of skills you’re wanting. And it sounds very much like it’s a problem in your life that’s causing you a lot of anxiety and pain. I think if there’s any way you can do talk therapy, that’s the place to start.

Wow. Huge topic. And it depends on a ton of things. And I definitely don’t feel like I’ve got it all figured out myself.

If you’re young and just for the first time having to manage your own affairs rather than depend on parents to help with that, then self-help kind of stuff might well be a fine place to start. (Just avoid Jordan Peterson.) If you’re older and feel like you’ve had the time needed to develop those skills and still don’t have them, it’s likely there’s something deeper going on that might benefit from therapy.

I personally cared for my ailing grandmother for a long time. And that shit’s hard work, and takes a lot of time. In the process, I let a lot of things go by the wayside like yardwork, home repair, and organization. Now that she has passed, I find myself with a lot of remedial work to catch up on. I feel like I’m making progress. It’s frustrating and slow, but it is progressing and that’s the important part.

Every time you see a Grimreaper thread, I want you all to remember…

I can definitely see a lot of good applications for this way of doing things.

It does seem like I often run across “error handling” code that literally just catches a bunch of different exception types and throws a new exception with the same content from the caught error just reworded, adding literally zero helpful information in the process.

It’s definitely the case that sometimes the exact sort of crash you’d get if you didn’t handle errors is exactly the best sort of exception output the program could do given its particular use case and target audience. Or at least it might be best to let the error be handled much further away in the call stack.

Well, 50% is “at least 15%”.
