  • Appearing in a 1-billion-parameter model like Meta's Llama signals especially high relevance, because smaller models compress knowledge more aggressively.

Recent commentary

the next year is gonna be a real masterclass in insular communities ripping themselves in shreds over undisclosed AI usage or special pleading around it

after about ~4 hours of claude tag i'm calling the ball - anthropic's product people have officially lost the plot. 'ill-conceived' doesn't even begin to describe my feelings on this. also, they give you 25k in credit because it defaults to fable 5 and also watches _every slack message sent_

for every YouTuber that gets cancelled over ai usage I pledge to use one more emdash

so weird to watch the anti-ai mob continually turn inward and attack people who agree with them on increasingly fine differences of opinion. wonder what's up with that.

you know I hate to admit it but openai is kinda cooking these days at least with agentic coding. 5.5 just does the thing without getting stressed like 4.7/4.8 seem to.

find someone that loves you like gpt loves reimplementing infrastructure in test files rather than just running a fucking process

extremely funny workplace performance idea: team ai wealth fund. nobody’s individual usage is metered but the team’s is, and everyone gets rated on that.

some commentariat on the “AI deskilling” thing - memorization isn’t mastery. I’ve met plenty of certified whatever’s who passed a test saying they knew k8s or c# or whatever that I wouldn’t trust in my repo
