> Everyone gets distracted, forgets things, procrastinates, and loses their keys; what matters clinically is the severity, persistence, combination, and impairment associated with those experiences. Everyone pisses, too. But if you’re doing it 45 times a day, I’d probably go see a doctor.

OR. Here’s a controversial idea. We have a cultural problem in that if you have an issue it MUST be health related instead of you not having matured enough yet or built the experiences required to handle a situation.

Everyone has a disorder? Or do people just need to learn skills that genuinely take time to develop as a part of a life that requires a lot from you?

God, not to mention how home are designed around the two-machine space.

It's just too slow of a model. I know, I know there's new hardware, but my business paid like 4-5 grand for this MBP at the time, and I just don't feel the need to pay 7-8 grand to step up to current hardware when token spend is what it is.

What a fucking ridiculous thing for me to learn by social news.

most engineering tasks don’t require frontier llms

when they get stuck, then i consider moving up to more capable models

purchasing a claude plan seems widely unnecessary to me

the tasks they do better than the average engineer cut both ways: unless you have an existing portfolio of well written and designed work done pre-llms, it looks like you’re producing slop that pretends to be well designed

poor typography choices despite using the mode,

poor layout choices despite using popular CSS frameworks

etc

bad engineers will always be bad engineers

tools don’t make up for it

edit: a follow up to this— everyone is using eyebrows in their layouts and have no fucking clue why it was done to begin with

everyone has a status pill floating above their front page hero display text and its not fucking status related

so gross

In the mean time, if you're unable to derisk Mullenweg out of your business stack, this is a good first step.

They don’t reply to these threads to share that knowledge because these threads devolve into cesspools about how you should just use Rust despite the language not meeting specific requirements authors have that you have to do additional work and maintenance for in “safe” languages that you get for free in C because you don’t have to emulate it.

OS, browser, fingerprinting, networked bytes, residential address spaces.

All of it is done.

Unfortunately, the calculus has changed and it seems cheaper to me to just use MiMo V2.5 for pennies or DeepSeek V4 Flash instead of using Qwen anymore unless I need a local model specifically for doing reverse engineering work that gets otherwise rejected.
