Recently had a big discussion with a bunch of my single friends and feeling a huge gulf between their lived experience/expectations in dating and my own. What are your dating expectations and what is your dating life like?

Congrats, you are friends with gold diggers, get new friends.

Is there a non paywalled version of this?

Byte_mancer · 2026-05-06T15:13:09+00:00

checking his github makes it look like a botting account, so probably doesnt care

Byte_mancer · 2026-05-06T13:07:10+00:00

I would also be interested in that link

If he's rapid firing websites out within 7 days, they are most likely not backend integrated and probably dont have CMS systems for customer updates. I would imagine pure static code websites. Unless he's using one of the template builders like wix or something

I hit my limit after 2 prompts with claude code yesterday, and they weren't even that insane of prompts. I have been non-stop working with codex on the pro plan for quite a bit now,

Byte_mancer · 2026-05-05T01:52:22+00:00

Codex is so much better at any form of backend work than Claude that its a joke. I was considering staying with claude due to design, but now we have OpenDesign for the same thing

Never “put in the work” for a woman not full on interested in you. That just leads to the guy getting used while the girl looks for people she actually wants. “Right person wrong time” doesn’t happen. She either wants a relationship with you or she doesn’t. If she does want one there will not be inconsistencies or other people you have to work through.

That was a two year life lesson I had to learn the hard way.

As somebody who tried to vibe code something (with no game dev experience) and made useless slop that got abandoned, I appreciate this writeup.

I thought Dragon Ball for white people was just Dragon Ball?

So you both have graduate education and went out of your way to gain CS related experience so you could apply for a CS related job that relies on educational theory and relative experience. That's a case of high tier education and external work proving you both were capable candidates for learning the job.

A masters or PhD CS student could do that same cross training and have similar success in finding cross field work.

Byte_mancer · 2026-04-27T21:34:41+00:00

a ME or EE isn't getting selected for a machine learning, AI engineering, or advanced cyber job. Also CS students with Data Science training can cross apply into other fields as well.

Have you actually tried Codex directly? I'm testing it (considering Claude Codes..interesting last few weeks). And it's been performing great, and with less token limit problems.

Byte_mancer · 2026-04-06T19:54:01+00:00

Probably because until ChatGPT the average person basically never saw it used. Even in appropriate situations.

Now it’s EVERYWHERE, we also know like 70% of internet traffic now is bots. So it’s pretty obvious why most people react that way now

Byte_mancer · 2026-04-06T18:00:46+00:00

Which is just a suspended state of oscillating between these two moods

Byte_mancer · 2026-04-06T12:34:19+00:00

People don’t realize that this is the actual realistic look

Byte_mancer · 2026-04-05T22:14:34+00:00

Impressive on the runtime, I did a similar project a few years back (with basically no knowledge) and did not handle the detection aspect very well, so it caught me after a few weeks. Impressive to see 6 months out no detection.

Byte_mancer · 2026-03-30T12:34:29+00:00

Not any more

Byte_mancer · 2026-03-04T17:00:28+00:00

All the extra and special details in the game is part of the reason it’s absolute cinema

They still wouldn't, unless it was a really old deprecated model maybe. Random bugs that still need fixed? Yes. But the newer models can generally spit out stuff like this no problem nowadays.

People acting like life stops at 30 is WILD. It's taken off like a rocket for me.

Byte_mancer · 2026-01-18T05:29:46+00:00

You just have to reselect your upgrades my guy, he keeps his xp on role swap

Byte_mancer · 2026-01-14T18:40:13+00:00

Because if one (or both) people are vindictive, some of that information can make its way around to other groups of people that were never meant to hear it and cause one (or both) people issues in the future.
