100% me until everybody I respect screamed at me a couple months ago to “just try Claude before you say anything else ignorant”

[petebray @petebray]

Worse are folks who tried the frontier models 1-2 years ago and base their assessment on that experience.

I know an exceptional (older) engineer who tried AI-assisted coding 18 months ago... and nothing since. He uses that experience to explain how crappy code from AI is and how it'll never be a thing.

My life

[Orange Book 🍊📖 @orangebook]

The true lottery winners are those who got married to someone high-energy, mentally stable, intellectually curious, and above all, overflowing every day in gratitude and optimistic energy, to be able to learn, to be able to grow, to be able to experience the ups and downs of life

Milk is such a cheat code to life. I’ve been drinking 2-4 quarts daily for 10 years now, and my doctor loves me.

- super cheap balanced nutrition
- stupidly simple
- excellent for roadtrips
- protein, fat, some carbs, AND hydration

When I really want to splurge, I get half-and-half instead. Super tasty.

MILK DESTROYED EVERY CLAIM MADE AGAINST IT WHEN I TESTED IT WITH BLOODWORK

5 liters milk per day. 30 days. 4,000 calories from milk alone.

Full blood panel, stool test, and organic acid urine test before and after.

> "Milk is estrogenic" -> Estrogen: unchanged throughout.

>"Milk destroys your gut" -> Calprotectin (gut inflammation): down 90%. Zonulin (leaky gut): down 70%.

>"You need fiber for gut health" -> Zero fiber consumed. Beneficial bacteria increased. Harmful bacteria eliminated without antibiotics.

>"Milk causes weight gain" -> Body composition same or improved on 4,000 calories daily.

>"Milk causes inflammation" -> Every inflammation marker improved.

> "Milk damages your kidneys" -> Urinary phosphate dropped 40%. Kidney filtration markers clean throughout.

> "Milk raises liver enzymes" -> Both dropped under 20.

The experts making these claims have not tested them on themselves.
I did.

Every time I get off a plane and head to the rental car counter, I'm surprised by what I see.

Hertz, Avis, National, Budget, Dollar, Enterprise, Alamo, etc.

What I'd expect to see:

Audi, BMW, Tesla, Volkswagen, Mercedes, Lexus, Cadillac, Ford, Volvo, Porsche, Hyundai, Land Rover, etc.

@MatthewChang “Fan” of worms lol

[Michael Harris @not_ai]

@RazOlsRF Blessed be the name of Jesus.

[Michael Harris @not_ai]

@MatthewChang @ErikKaiser Baking cookies is another fan of worms.

[Michael Harris @not_ai]

@CitizensBank No, you don’t need that. You have the bug. Go find it and squish it.

[Michael Harris @not_ai]

@CitizensBank has a big bug that I reported a few weeks ago to their customer service, and it seems like it's still there. Here's how I reproduce it:
1. Login to my business checking (Chrome on Arch Linux)
2. Logout
3. Login to my personal checking

--> BUSINESS CHECKING STILL LOADS

This feels like a significant security gap, no?

[Michael Harris @not_ai]

@CitizensBank I'm busy. This notice is my due diligence. If you first try to reproduce it but can't seem to figure it out, reach back out then and I'll see if I can record a video with DevTools loaded for context or something.

But I'd guess Claude could verify this based on what I've said.

@paulg @elonmusk Immigration brings cultural externalities that have immense cost to society. Immigrants must be dramatically above average to make up for this cost.

It’s not hypocritical. It’s just hard for average citizens to clarify with words what their gut knows with certainty.

@unclebobmartin @Goyslopfabp @famexbt It sounds like my generation will be the one to begin returning to this level of generosity to offspring. Makes me proud to be included. I hope I’m able to participate with my peers.

@ThePrimeagen Can they do the same study, keeping Grok as the benchmark, on the open source models?

A stopped clock may be right twice a day. But Daylight Saving Time is never right.
