Ah man, federal hemp ban means no more weed drinks here in PA soon
but at least that solves one problem: how do you, without sounding like a big bang theory character, refer to a "weed drink"?
Been trying Whole Foods delivery. Today they randomly canceled on me for no reason. Which makes me so mad and leaves me no choice but to ... go shop at whole foods 🤷
My toddler, upon seeing a book of his rival's works. Or his own works. Or really any pile of papers he can dump all over the floor
I like bands that tell me exactly what to do. I listen to Imagine Dragons when I want to imagine dragons. I listen to Rage Against the Machine when I want to rage against the machine. I listen to Jack Johnson when I'm horny
Idk, Bloomfield's local street artists won't be happy
ALT Graffiti that says "lower the minumem wage"
Half a million workers in Pennsylvania still make less than $15 an hour — you can’t live off of that in 2026.
Now, we’re finally able to change that.
The very first bill that I will sign into law with our new Democratic majority this January will be to raise our minimum wage — and make sure every Pennsylvania worker has a livable wage. It’s long overdue.
all saints' day? yeah ok sure and tomorrow is diesel saturday. john varvatos's birthday. whatever, man. kooplesday
Despite all the slop, I hold out a lot of hope that "Claude make me a website where people can enter their insurance info at the eye doctor" will actually make a lot of everyday websites *dramatically* better
thinking about this a lot too
one thing I notice when I rewrite claude to be legible is, I'm making it more active-voice. so yeah, like "the pack is said aloud" -> "the agent talks the way the pack is written."
claude talks in rules like a textbook, I try to write like a story
something I'm learning the hard way (and I see lots of people still not realising it) - whatever plain-english agent-writing style guide you were using for the models over the summer NO LONGER WORK for Opus 5.5. anything pushing towards concision results in a very particular way of using seemingly "plain english" words in contorted ways to mean non-central meanings. it's neuralese disguised as plain english. reading it feels like I'm having a stroke, or doing a maths exam I'm unprepared for
I was manually reviewing some opus-written prompts and finding howlers like "write each part to its job, in as few words as do it"
I'm currently having opus sweep all my writing-style prompts to remove mentions of conciseness. Trying to re-frame in terms of "not including information that is not necessary", but at this point I would rather more verbose writing than this hyper-compressed nonsense

TIL that the anecdote about the pottery students who made a million crappy pieces becoming good, is a fucking lie lesswrong.com/posts/LrAqM4bG…
mannn I am excited about political results BUT whenever I look at any political ad I get sad
"I'm fighting for people like you, not the big corporations"
fuckin' come on, might as well say "I am Good and not Bad"
and this is the best of it!
(I know I'm being a huge nerd rn)
I would like to thank our wannabe-dictator for being, in addition to historically corrupt, just monumentally dumb enough to piss off even the God of Gas Prices
tfw the day is getting closer to its end and there's still kid bedtime, chores, and work, and you realize you will not get a chance to do a single thing you want to today
"Post Malone" sounds like a prophet but in reverse. Like John the Baptist but instead of "Jesus is coming" he's like "Karl Malone was already here."
