yesterday i signed up again for claude max $200 plan and had it change the whole visual metaphor of the productivity app i’ve been working on intermittently over the past year: instead of a traditional UI with tables, lists, tools, etc, i told Fable to use a desktop OS metaphor instead for displaying the various built-in mini apps (tasks, chat, notes, etc). all with a functioning dock and animated wallpaper and multiple window support etc.

fable was able to solve the problem but really i’m beyond the point of being impressed by an LLM doing some upfront task. everything worked, it “made no mistakes”, all tests passed (it even fixed old tests), but i was like ok whatever thanks. i blew past my $200 limit in 2 hours.

and now i’m sitting here like, ok, now what? do i ship this? hear me be a whiny bitch for a second: that it was too easy killed the whole part of the journey of making an app where you become a new person through the creation process, and you earn such pride in your work which in the past gave you the energy and courage to ship things.

and i’m like, i can ship this. i can try to make a buck. the app is done. but i just don’t feel a bond with the work. now if you were a somewhat savvy operator, the business type that would happily sell refrigerator coolant if you sensed an opportunity, AI will be a godsend for you. but i don’t wanna sell refrigerator coolant.

and now because everything is so easy, i hardly ever feel like i’m solving a real problem anymore. it’s like how deep of a problem am i really solving if someone can one shot my app in 2 hours?

i will say that in those 2 hours yesterday, i really enjoyed being back near the code. there’s nothing funner than making shit.

it’s just that the new way of doing things kills a lot of the creative and spiritual juices you used to get before, that many times lead to commercially beneficial outcomes.

now, i just don’t know what’s worth building anymore.

@elonmusk No. Grok lies. Nice trick to call Grok 'maximum' truth-seeking. It requires Grok only to be over 50% truthful.

1. Trump ganará las elecciones de 2024

2. Estados Unidos 🇺🇸 irá a guerra contra Irán 🇮🇷

3. Estados Unidos 🇺🇸 perderá y cambiará el orden global 🌎🌏

Breaking

Palantir was allegedly hacked. An AI agent was used to gain super-user access and here”s what the hackers allegedly found:

Peter Thiel and Alex Karp commit mass surveillance of world leaders and titans of industry on a massive scale.

They have thousands of hours of transcribed and searchable conversations of Donald Trump, JD Vance and Elon Musk.

They have backdoored the devices, cars and jets of world leaders and accumulated the biggest archive of blackmail material.

Palantir is creating nuclear and bio weapon capabilities for Ukraine and is working closely with the CIA to defeat Russia. They believe they are one year away. They plan to achieve this by keeping Russia busy with meaningless peace negotiations.

Palantir is responsible of the majority of Palestinian deaths in Gaza. They have developed the AI targeting for Israel.

Palantir is an arm of the CIA and all data from international clients is copied into a CIA spy cloud.

Palantir has become the most dangerous company in the world. If you work there you have the right to know that this is what Palentir AI is used for, without your knowledge.

The Palentir data the hackers allegedly gathered will be given to Russia and/or China. I was chosen as a trusted partner for this publication. I’m not involved in the Palentir hack and I don’t know the hackers. But I do know that the hack happened.

When I was 16 years old, I attended a meditation event hosted by Deepak Chopra in Europe. After the event, I lined up to ask him a question about my spiritual practice. He gave me his number and insisted to meet later that night. I was alarmed and my intuition warned not to go, so I didn’t. That was also my wake up call. Male gurus are a construct. Smart girls are real.

Thousands of men, women and children killed. A place in ruins. And then launch a corporate sales pitch at WEF Davos of a monstrosity built on the same site with the likes of Tony Blair on the “board of peace”. The word grotesque doesn’t even begin to describe this.

We are not safe under Trump

[Andrés Manuel @lopezobrador_]

Estoy retirado de la política, pero mis convicciones libertarias me impiden callar ante el prepotente atentado a la soberanía del pueblo de Venezuela y el secuestro de su presidente. Ni Bolívar ni Lincoln aceptarían que el gobierno de Estados Unidos actuara como una tiranía mundial.

Presidente Trump: no caiga en la autocomplacencia ni escuche el canto de las sirenas. Mande al carajo a los halcones; usted tiene capacidad para actuar con juicio práctico. No olvide que la efímera victoria de hoy puede ser la contundente derrota del mañana. La política no es imposición.

Recuerde que “el respeto al derecho ajeno es la paz”, como nos enseñó Benito Juárez en el siglo XIX. Soy mexicano con mucho orgullo, pero también latinoamericano. Apoyo incondicionalmente a mi presidenta Claudia Sheinbaum.

Por ahora no le mando un abrazo.

"Pedimos a los estadounidenses que financien el ejército, pedimos a las madres y padres de todo Estados Unidos que nos entreguen su recurso más preciado: sus hijos e hijas”.

Pete Hegseth, secretario de guerra de EEUU, profirió un discurso delirante donde pide a las madres estadounidenses que entreguen a sus hijos para luchar en sus guerras imperialistas, a los que solo ve como "recursos" para lograr sus objetivos.

Que tiempos tan oscuros en este sistema capitalista, donde los psicópatas copan los puestos de poder y abiertamente hablan de personas como si fuesen items desechables que vale la pena gastar en sus guerras de rapiña solo para llenarse los bolsillos.
