@ChrisJanssen Orlando deserved that first half. Nobody in that building deserved that second half. I'm so down man.

Perhaps the most disappointing aspect of tonight’s epic meltdown is….
How a team can collectively go on such a big scoring drought / collapse behind THAT crowd… it’s just inexplicable to me. Orlando fans don’t deserve that. They showed up & showed out.
Especially when players are talking about how bad they need the crowd… for what? You had the biggest crowd of the year and put up an absolute stinker, one of the worst losses in franchise history.
Oh well, taking my son on a bike ride tomorrow, that’ll be a fun time I’ll cherish.

@JoshuaBRobbins @GreeneTorkelson @HunterPatterson If this hasn't always been true, I was super unlucky. Going back to the late 2000's, mine were always XL. And having worn some of them as around the house shirts until they were falling apart, they definitely shrink!

@GreeneTorkelson @HunterPatterson That's true. When I saw your reply, @GreeneTorkelson, I went out to the seating bowl to check the sizes. You're 100 percent accurate: All of the shirts are XLs. Having said that, don't they shrink after a wash?

@MagicGior @AlMagicHQ the entire league knows he's out 2 weeks there's no mental games to play now

@AlMagicHQ Probably because they saw him in a moon boot, read interviews and comments he made etc. information is out on him

The actor Ben Stiller, a diehard Knicks fan, posted about the Knicks winning a basketball game yesterday. Thousands of people, including a sitting member of Congress, think he was cheering on a failed (!) assassination attempt. This website rots your brain.

@dangreenheck "which gives me a false sense of confidence that the AI knows exactly what it's doing."
rid yourself of *ever* believing this, and use the tool accordingly. and i mean forever. regardless of some fancy new model release.

I've been using Claude Code exclusively for 6 months and I'm still not convinced on this whole AI thing.
There are some *seriously* insidious problems that worry me, and I don't see them being fixed any time soon.
Every release of a new model, I see hundreds of posts where people think because they one-shotted X or Y, software jobs are cooked (I've probably made one or two of these posts myself).
But none of those examples are actually representative of real-world software.
If I set it to work on an ambiguous or highly complex problem that has a lot of branching in the solution space, I've noticed the following:
- It can often generate a working solution in one-shot, which gives me a false sense of confidence that the AI knows exactly what it's doing.
- As I continue to work the problem, I've noticed the AI will start to narrow its focus more and more, not considering how a fix or solution plays into the big picture.
- The quality of a solution depends on *how* I prompt it, which is really, really bad. Software engineering should be deterministic, not a dice roll.
- It will often ignore instructions I have explicitly stated in the rules file, which removes any confidence I have in the code it generates.
- It consistently overstates its confidence in a solution. I literally just got this response from Claude: "I overstated that. Honest answer: it depends on the scene and implementation; the 2–4× figure was too confident." If I had never pushed back, I would have been operating on incorrect information.
- It is far too agreeable. If I'm not careful in my wording, the AI will blindly follow my instructions, even if they are suboptimal. I want a real coding partner that challenges my ideas, not an ass-kisser.
Don't get me wrong—AI has helped me build some amazing things faster than I ever could without it.
But the more I use it, the more I begin to question the direction things are headed.
If the AI was more direct about what it (not) capable of, it'd be a lot easier to work with. But being gaslit every step of the way makes the process stressful as hell.
Going back to manual coding isn't even an option since the value of having AI *potentially* generating the correct code in 1/10 or 1/100 of the time is literally too good to pass up on.
Sorry for the rant, drank way too much cold brew this morning.

@SleeperOrlando do you watch games? he's bad right now. ideally he gets an offseason under him and gets back to normal.
