just coined a new term

AI sloppery (n.)

the careless mass production of low-effort AI-generated content, products, designs, writing, or opinions with little originality, taste, or human judgment.

example usages:
“LinkedIn is drowning in AI sloppery.”
“That app feels like pure AI sloppery.”
“The problem isn’t AI. It’s the sloppery.”

@GuruPashupati your writing is pure rocket fuel for my being - an instant turn ON!

[Guru Pashupati @GuruPashupati]

BE THEN DO

Be turned on, then do, and you'll do well. Be neutral or repulsed or afraid and do, and you'll do badly. It's that simple.

What does it mean to be turned on? It's to find the feeling and thought that makes you feel active in your blood. It changes your hormonally and biochemically arouses you to take action. You can't get your mind off it. 

I write articles everyday because I think "maybe one line I write will transform someone else's life". This thought makes me write everyday even though I don't get any material benefit out of it. The joy of helping others makes me write. It turns me on.

Here’s what most people don’t know, this energy of being turned on is always trying to get your attention, and only this energy can make us happy.

By giving in to the thought or feeling of being turned on, we feel a sense of purpose. Please don’t confuse this with craving or addiction. Craving and addiction is wanting relief from not honouring this energy.

We crave things to relieve the grief of not knowing what our true ambitions are. All addictions are substitutes for a clear purpose.

Not acknowledging and articulating your positive ambition leads to great pain, and people often relieve this pain by getting addicted to things.

What is the difference between positive ambition and needs?

Needs are just necessities, achieving them removes the problems caused by not having them. Needs are not optional. If you don’t have them fulfilled you simply cannot function.

Positive ambitions are always out of your reach, you have to grow into a different person to be able to fulfil them. 

Such ambitions are called ‘Trishna’ in Sanskrit. They are different from greed, curiosity, need, plan, desire, want etc. Trishna is only one at any given moment. It comes out of the thought ‘who you have to become next’ not ‘what you have to do next'

Someone who comes to clarity about who they have to be every day, achieves extraordinary spiritual and material success and never needs to focus on techniques and practices. Techniques and practices happen automatically without any willpower or planning.

Always be aware of and behave like the person you need to be, not like the person you are. This is not being an impostor or lying, it is life’s constant call to you to evolve.

If you behave like the person you are you will only get the result you are already getting. 

Behave like a better person than you already are and you will notice something startling.

You will find that your actions are clear, effortless and unstoppable. 

There will be no more experience of obstacles or hesitation in your actions.

@davidcafor So cool. Let’s gooo!

@val__greg superb, thank you @val__greg

claude code tip:

when context compaction kicks in, it auto-summarizes your session, but that summary is lossy. decisions, constraints, edge cases you discussed? Gone.

fix: run /compact yourself before you hit the limit, with instructions on what to keep.

ex.:/compact Focus on: current auth architecture, and the unresolved rate limiting bug on /api/users

you control what survives, seems to give better results.
