And worms think it’s beautiful! The other side with the colors? “Yuk!” say the worms.

Yeah, sorry if my tone seemed patronizing.

And I can relate with you. Orbital predictions? “This body will collide with that other body 7 years from now”? Whoa. Magic indeed!!

It’s okay not to understand everything about Math. I used to be a big enthusiast, even went to engineering school and loved the Math parts of it. But there are many, many, many topics I don’t have the time or energy to grasp them, and I’m okay with that.

But yeah, nothing too magic about it. If you have one apple and you know that someone will give you another apple in 30 minutes, how many apples will you have in 45 minutes? That’s right. 2 apples. Of course, predicting orbital trajectories is much more than that. But that’s pretty much about it (lol!)

No need to call dumb to the person asking the questions. Answer them and help them see the light without them feeling small. None of us came to this world with knowledge.

Easy peasy:

Communities = commies

You’re welcome.

What are you implying? That there will be a catastrophic galactic collision?

Because that’s not happening. Look it up.

Interesting!

Hm, I guess you’re technically correct, but going so far back to middle school is like saying that “Santa is being sold as reality” because we thought that he was real at that age.

It’s a cool coincidence, though.

I mean, come on. The region called after the constellation with the north star, which aids with finding where the north pole is, has polar bears. Nice!

Or Newfoundland.

“Top” and “Bottom”.

You probably know this, but aside from that, Claude has “plan mode”. When writing, hit “Shift+Tab” a few times until you select it. Claude won’t immediately start coding when you give it instructions.

Also, ask him about the "superpowers* and “ask questions” skills. Game changers too.

It depends on how it’s executed.

If it’s sold as true satire or fiction, I’m in. WWE, John Wick, Rocky III.

If it’s sold as reality, yeah, it’s garbage.

Edit: though I just read the fucking article and what these fuckers did is inexcusable. And those who watch this, yup, you’re right. Garbage.

Do you tell Claude to make a plan first?

That helps me tremendously. Whenever something needs to be modified, I tell it to update the plan first, and to stick to the plan.

That way, Claude doesn’t rewrite code that has already been implemented as part of the plan.

And understanding the plan helps understanding the code.

Sometimes if I know there will be a lot of code produced, I’ll tell it to add a quick comment on every piece it adds or modifies with a reference to the step in the plan it refers to. Makes code reviewing much more pleasant and easier to follow. And the bugs and hallucinations stick out more too.

Thanks! Yeah, lack of ethernet ports is annoying. I bought a USB adapter to have one.

Nice! Thanks for your answer.

Whoa, what laptop did you end up getting? 64GB? Nice!

Thanks for the links.

Well, that’s disappointing.

How are they assholes? What did I miss?

Thanks! It’s interesting to hear folks say that other machines are as powerful and less expensive. The irony is, they’re less expensive because they have everything soldered on and designed to be eventual e-waste more quickly.
