I beat it! This is the first of your challenges I’ve actually completed.

It’s coming along nicely btw, some people are saying they don’t like the timer but I personally think the timer adds a lot to it. Also only being able to attempt once makes it more competitive, like if you combined hardcore minecraft and wordle. Hardcore wordle.

When you said that “His code was slop well before LLMs” got a good cackle out of me.

The fact is, most people don’t have taste and haven’t had taste, LLMs just amplify what was already there. Good taste is good taste, slop is slop, and shit is shit.

Glad you guys were able to go your separate ways.

I’ve been a big fan of SearXNG for a while now. My distain for google has only grown, so having the ability to search and avoid things like yk, small AI models being installed on my PC without my consent, is awesome.

Amazon just publicly touted New Glenn as the backbone of Leo two days ago. Now they’re looking at significant delays to a network that’s already years behind Starlink.

I see so many shitpost twitter and facebook pages that claim actually harmful misinformation, absolutely disgusting levels of picking one and ignoring the other. Especially when given the evidence now, she was sharing legitimate information.

It’s a delicate balance currently. Local models are catching up in breaking speeds while OpenAI is publicly stating they want to sell AI like a “utility” aka only through API pricing.

Meanwhile datacenters put out more pollution and use more electricity than all the plane rides Bill Gates took with Epstein combined, for business meetings of course.

ninjahawk1 — Sat, 16 May 2026 20:43:23 +0000

I’m personally not a fan of OpenAI always referring to their model as “providing intelligence as a utility.” Sounds very condescending, are you saying this isn’t something we already have? If that’s the opinion, may be good to reflect on how the models were trained. On millions upon millions of books which no authors were compensated for.

But that’s besides the point, the whole initiative is self-defeating by design. This isn’t like power, it’s something humans do inherently possess, this is simply a way to amplify what already exists. Intelligent people using AI generally seem to be more productive than when they don’t use it, and lazy or unintelligent people generally see cognitive decline, at least based on what I’ve heard online but I could be wrong on that.

So saying “this is where you get intelligence” is both false marketing and destructive to OpenAI as a company, since by all definitions, it isn’t true.
