not once did I ever understand what the difference was between Claude Chat and Claude Cowork. I use both and I mostly just guessed when to use Cowork.

JerryRigEverything will deploy his hardness pick test in short order I'm sure.

If you think a Nathan Fielder project is going to rehabilitate someone's image then you don't know who Nathan Fielder is.

Let's see who has the last laugh.

It shall be us, the audience

This is the correct answer. We'll be amusing ourselves to death.

He who laughs at last, laughs best.

"oh you said 'nitter', yeah that's OK"

this is basically the inciting incident of the recent movie Hoppers

I predict "data centers" are going to start being built but they'll say it's a distribution warehouse for motorcycle parts or a factory or something. There'll be a token amount of floor space set aside to manufacture pen cartridges but then there'll just be an incidental 200000 sq ft of server racks.

Actually I'm sure they're already doing that.

I’ve left so many PR reviews in the last few months that are essentially “this looks good but delete 80% of the comments.”

Lets assume one of two worlds - one where AI is constantly improving and one where the tooling is a dead end. In the first world the AI generated comments are no better than the commentary that would be generated in the next six months - in the second world the AI generated comments will obscure the human written comments.

In what world are AI generated comments actually value adds?

If the AI (or the person) ran into a non-obvious constraint, or some externality, or there’s a plan that just isn’t implemented yet- then the comment wouldn’t be able to be divined by the AI. But yeah just pointing the AI at something and saying “write me docs” will get you something at best equally good as what’s going to be available.

this. like I feel that even telling sonnet 5 to explicitly not add comments it still produces them even on suppa simple logic

Ah, so literally a word.

I was thinking you could probably get a fair bit of accessibility by using <div>s for your text rendering- or by maintaining a separate, hidden outline of DOM elements mirroring what’s on screen.

> maintaining a separate, hidden outline of DOM elements mirroring what’s on screen.

Is there any analysis on the efficacy of this approach? This is always my first thought in these discussions. Performance of WASM with native text IO. Being fully "hidden" one could just use semantic elements, skipping most layout div's, maybe in turn reaping untold accessibility benefits?

Being such a simple idea I cannot believe that it wasn't tried and abandoned before.

Why should anyone who's not a Klingon care about "honor"?

A part of living in society is following societal norms.

"It is no measure of health to be well adjusted to a profoundly stick society" - Krishnamurti

Exactly. It is societal norm to not harass other people, whether you do it online or offline. Do you realise how incoherent you are?
