@mattparlmer It's funny how some VC firms gain edge from not investing in the outright frauds.

Almost $40m in VC funding, extremely obvious fraud never caught in diligence, good job everybody

A detailed and brutal look at the tactics of buzzy AI compliance startup Delve "Delve built a machine designed to make clients complicit without their knowledge, to manufacture plausible deniability while producing exactly the opposite." substack.com/home/post/p-19…

We had a good thing, you stupid son of a bitch. We had an AI super cycle. We had deflationary growth. You could've shut your mouth, grifted, and made as much money as you ever needed. It was perfect. But no. You just had to blow it up. You. And your pride and your ego.

@DeepDishEnjoyer stocks shot up 0.80% since you posted this 40 minutes ago huh?

We've entered into an agreement to join OpenAI as part of the Codex team.
I'm incredibly proud of the work we've done so far, incredibly grateful to everyone that's supported us, and incredibly excited to keep building tools that make programming feel different.

@buccocapital Wrong. You can always put "AI" on your company's landing page 10 times.
English
I don’t know how many times it needs to be said
If you are an AI loser there is nothing you can do to change the narrative except to accelerate
Accelerate or die
Maybe the paradigm will magically change. Maybe AI progress will stop. Until that happens? Accelerate or die

@djwhatley you're forgetting about the line of code that's if user.name == "elonmusk": dislikes //= 5
English
@ryxcommar Lmao it will be gone in less than 10 minutes after Musk sees the dislike ratios on all his posts
English
I don't have any real strong opinions on whether a dislike button is a good idea for a social media website.
I do have stronger opinions on whether a company with ~30 engineers can manage the nuances and complexity of any actioning of a newly introduced dislike button.

BREAKING: 𝕏 rolling out dislike button over the next 30 days.
English
It would be kind of interesting and funny if the dislike button was basically cosmetic.

@zeeg the dunning-kruger effect feels like it was invented for people who don't know how to evaluate LLM outputs who post "skill issue" when other people critique it
English
gonna mute 'skill issue' since thats the closest i can get to virtually punching someone in the face on here

so many people on this everything app trying to tell me what im doing wrong with LLMs as if I dont ship 100x more code than them
English
Senior PowerPoint Engineer retweetledi
To be clear I’m going to keep shipping using LLMs. It’s harder to optimize for when not to use them. It’s just a simple observation that I and many of my peers have had.
Sometimes the performance hit justifies the long term outcome - understanding the tech deeply does.
David Cramer@zeeg
im fully convinced that LLMs are not an actual net productivity boost (today) they remove the barrier to get started, but they create increasingly complex software which does not appear to be maintainable so far, in my situations, they appear to slow down long term velocity

@tolstoybb i know he said "hypothetically" but the strait simply isn't opening tomorrow. kamikaze drones are so easy to deploy that even poor ukranians can make a billion of them

@RvLeshrac @boyuan_chen It's weird. I've been using it a lot. I don't think it's useless. But it is invariably slop. The question that is relevant is, where is it OK to make and put slop code? Not all code needs to be amazing but some of it should be.
English
@boyuan_chen @ryxcommar Sorry, but no, no one gets anything even approaching good or useful results.
English
Every time I complain that vibe coding produces slop, people tell me I can get better results by writing more specific instructions for the machine to follow. Good idea! But I think we need a catchier name for the concept of writing specific instructions for a machine to follow.

@R3ginaTiedemann if you were so smart and special you'd have immediately known that "entropy" here is being used in the information theoretic sense, not the physical sense. guess you're not so smart and special.
English
I hate when avg engineers (upon whom I look down) and avg software developers (upon whom I look down even more) talk about physical phenomena like entropy and quantum physics.
You’re cognitariat tradespeople. Nothing more.
Senior PowerPoint Engineer@ryxcommar
There's a lot you can do with an AI coding assistant. But specifically for just adding or refining known features, if an English language descriptor has less entropy than the code itself, then a lot of the point of this style of coding goes away.
