Yes, yes it is fake but it still captures the zeitgeist of working in a corporate environment.

About 26 miles from the hospital I was born in, or 35 miles from my family’s home at the time. I haven’t gone far, but each move has a been a little bit further.

Who knows, by the time I die maybe I’ll live outside the local metro area!

Or attract people who probably shouldn’t be teaching.

I’ve used cursor quite a bit recently in large part because it’s an organization wide push at my employer, so I’ve taken the opportunity to experiment.

My best analogy is that it’s like micro managing a hyper productive junior developer that somehow already “knows” how to do stuff in most languages and frameworks, but also completely lacks common sense, a concept of good practices, or a big picture view of what’s being accomplished. Which means a ton of course correction. I even had it spit out code attempting to hardcode credentials.

I can accomplish some things “faster” with it, but mostly in comparison to my professional reality: I rarely have the contiguous chunks of time I’d need to dedicate to properly ingest and do something entirely new to me. I save a significant amount of the onboarding, but lose a bunch of time navigating to a reasonable solution. Critically that navigation is more “interrupt” tolerant, and I get a lot of interrupts.

That said, this year’s crop of interns at work seem to be thin wrappers on top of LLMs and I worry about the future of critical thinking for society at large.

+5 points if you realize it mid way through by the look on your audience’s faces.

Leopards exfoliated my face.

We can’t be sure, but we can send him to a prison in El Salvador on the vague hypothesis that he is.

Many years technically, but I doubt the stability of… well, everything, too much to say that with much conviction.

“Early reports indicate that a vortex has emerged as a result of the reversal which is drawing in carbon dioxide, microplastics, PFAS, and, inexplicably, members of the Trump administration.”

If you have a hairless cat in your house: No.

Based on the body scaling in this chart you’re at least as tall as a two story house then.

Sounds like that cop was… fluoreyed.

I’ll see myself out.

Don’t listen to them, buddy, you’re just as good as the rest of the sooty owls.

The shitty part is even if people still pursue vaccines despite new obstacles, we’re definitely losing herd immunity. Seems like these measles outbreaks are just a taste of things to come. What a timeline.

“RFK questions guidance on not putting spring rolls up your anus.”

Their analysis also revealed that these nonclinical variations in text, which mimic how people really communicate, are more likely to change a model’s treatment recommendations for female patients, resulting in a higher percentage of women who were erroneously advised not to seek medical care, according to human doctors.

This is not an argument for LLMs (which people are deferring to an alarming rate) but I’d call out that this seems to be a bias in humans giving medical care as well.
