Consultancies sell the resume and not the person. It's easier for them to quantify, "We have 300 CCAs" than it is "What have this person Kim who is really good."

Yes, because if that was their sales pitch, they would need to pay Kim more, and they would have to account for the fact that she's already allocated elsewhere. It's better to pretend all those CCAs are interchangeable.

Mars isn't a good option due to lack of magnetosphere.

Personally if you want to propagate life by shooting containers of RNA at different extraterrestrial plants.


> due to lack of magnetosphere

Well, it's certainly one of the concerns there. After the lack of an atmosphere, biosphere, usable water...


Low gravity is another at only 0.39 Earth gravity.

It's an excellent option if you want to secure an incredible amount capital investment in a non-nonsensical pig of an idea - with visionary animations doing the heavy lifting as the most alluring lipstick known to man.

If people enjoy coding by hand: GREAT DO IT!!!

My mental model is that coding by hand is similar to horseback riding, sail boating, etc. These skills are still enjoyed by people and in some circumstances they are invaluable.


As Annie Duke said in her book Quit, "quitting on time usually feels like quitting too early." Grammarly was a great in the 2010s, but now it's too easily replaced.

It reminds me of winzip.


Depressingly enough, if Grammarly does throw in the hat, we'll lose an application of clear utility that could be run entirely locally.

It seems like there are many apps that can be run locally that use LLMs. Although I haven't used this, I found it on reddit and it's made by a student. https://github.com/theJayTea/WritingTools

Seems like there could be others that are better.


I believe the person you're replying to meant local inferencing. The tool you shared, like most (all?) LLM utilities, is wrapping API calls.

IIRC, I think the core of Grammarly is a CL-based pattern-matching system, so it may be even simpler than that.

I would say that the empirical data of the number of people who die with a belief in God may contradict your assumption. I'm not religious but I have many religious friends and family members.

What about

  ~/.claude/settings.json
  {"permissions": {"defaultMode": "plan"}}

Not only that, Iran is attacking Saudi and friends infrastructure so that they have to use their capital there and not invest in the USA's AI nor government debt.

Almost any name is better than GIMP.

It would be impossible to come up with a name that reflected the nature of the gimp program better.

more importantly how is Anthropric going to fix Claude if Claude can't help them :-D

That’s funnier than it should

My guess is a nation state attack but my guesses are usually big and wrong.
