I don't know man, even AWS gives you cryptic errors if you have a drifting clock and try to perform some operations. Feels like a pretty forgivable mistake.

While AI has made my life as a developer worse in many, many ways, I am conversely really glad the conversation has shifted past these types of tricks, framework wars, etc.

This is so, so much fun to click around. I really recommend having three tabs open — I'm like Jeff Mills in the browser.

I thought Quiet Storm was on 105.3. Man I miss Philly rnb... SF radio doesn't even come close.

Amazed that I have never heard of this. Feel like the positive PR would be a large incentive for them doing this at all.

And to announce it on a Friday night. Brutal.

Reading this really makes me wish that I had a slightly better workflow. I'm really soley dependent of Fable to the point that I don't use other models, and I've already sort of hit a point where I'm running into usage limits every week. I am really living on borrowed time — when Anthropic finally collapses their 50% usage increase at the end of August, I'll definitely be forced to switch my workflow. When that happens, I have a hard time imagining that I'll be sticking with a single model on a single provider.

I am actually going to guess that this is in fact unfortunately not an LLM. I have been made a few audio webpages and don’t think a lot of these mistakes would have been made, even though the model can’t hear :^)

I normally don't comment on matters of taste like this, but wow this is brutal. It's like someone threw the site in a vat of molasses.

Similarly blessed that I am too stupid to comprehend this post. This person compares themselves to Prometheus and is begging for cash? What? Why is this not flagged?

It's a bit like a payday loan — the drivers need money _today_ and effectively borrow against the depreciation of their vehicle.

I hear you — but what do you think Spotify or any of the other streaming services are? In my mind, algorithmic streaming services have much more in common with this "experiment" than your local radio DJ.

At this point I think many of us are similarly exhausted by this sort of trite exercise. I really don't need some VC backed startup to show me this sort of output any more, especially when the output in question is obviously boring and substandard.

Probably one of the most reckless things I've seen in software. Beyond safety or quality, at the very least: what about all the existing contributors' PRs? Fuck 'em?

Right — it does seem cool but the voice is patching over a major gap. If I'm talking already, why wouldn't I just describe what I'm looking at and have the AI grab it for me?

I do agree. The Gary Tan takedown page is equally sensational, kinda for no reason? There’s a lot to rag on with Gary, but this webpage makes it seemed like he killed a guy or something.

It’s also kinda the case for sports too — I literally just watched LeBron throw an alley oop to his kid a few nights ago.

I actually don't understand how this would affect bankruptcies — why?
