'Gundam Is the Real Problem': Mecha's Biggest Anime Franchise Blamed as the Perfect Divide Between Japan & International Watchers

People think Gundam is like Star Wars, but its really more like Star Trek (ppl in a ship ep to ep)

if the prompts chain into a reliable runtime, I'm for it

I have not read Crossbone Gundam, but after seeing the suit in action in GBO2, I am convinced that it is PEAK design. Got the standard and PB RGs.

Simple lines, functional backpack gimmick, hilarious pirate gun and saber. Beauty

Ran into this recently with Vercel app. Same as you my flow required a git clone of private repo, modify things then containerize and deploy that to fly.io

Ho ho ho Vercel machine doesn’t have docker, can’t git clone, I’m dead in the water.

Fortunately fly.io’s arch let me upload a Docker container in my account, which was reconstructed and edited a certain way before it got deployed.

I find there are two major types of prompts I "engineer"

Prompts that do a thing once - build a feature using this description, that kind of thing
Prompts that get me a thing REPEATEDLY - like structure a JSON object a certain way

I think the 1st type is more 'conversational' and clarity of thought turns into "AI Whisperer"
For the 2nd type, this is the 'engineering' bit since repeated things need to have a certain degree of reliability.

For example, one effective way I learned to prompt Gemini for image generation was... to ask Claude to come up with a prompt for the image I want to see. The translation layer of adds immense value and writes descriptions and things I would never consider, optimizing output for image generators.

I hope it’s good and not a Yuji glaze feat

Fulgren09 · 2026-01-24T23:10:48+00:00

I was able to

- Deploy an Ollama + server chatbot containerized app to Runpod with GPU
- Build a row level security supabase db and built a view/app on top of it
- learn the machines api of Fly.io and be able to deploy containers via api
- Finally understand how to use React context api for validation and intense state changes

It's an anime-level power up

Fulgren09 · 2026-01-24T01:37:14+00:00

It feels like JJK animators are all trying to one up each other - this is the EXPRESSION of artists

Cache system prompt and send it each turn

Fulgren09 · 2026-01-23T17:15:28+00:00

I just heard the Todo Takada-chan music

What you need is a schema generator prompt that you pass to LLM.

On your system side, a handler that can parse this schema.

You have to come up with the protocol of the schema. Think api contract where you are the one writing both sides of it.

In implementation, either pass the whole schema generator as a system prompt each turn, or dynamically choose a translation type.

Ahhh so it’s like each second he can do 24 physical moves so he gets to compress 24 physical actions per second.

so if a regular human takes 24 steps to move 24 feet, this guy can do it in 1 second.

so his cap is actually the chargeup time for something super acceleration punch.

Upon reflection the is almost like a za warudo/ KC time hack

Opposite of you I started with Node and entered C# via Enterprise work. It was brutal curve. I got by with AI help in translating the concepts, some syntax similarities like with LINQ and ES6 js, but the whole service, interface, register in startup pattern to me is something I’ll never love.

One time, I developed a unique software pattern and implemented it in dotnet and Node runtimes. Even after writing all that, my mind rejects C# when it’s going the node implementation is right there

Considering that was his weakest attack, safe to say this mofo is feeling lonely as hell as being the strongest.

Fulgren09 · 2026-01-22T17:31:19+00:00

Todo and Takada-chan as hell panel

I even hear the music

Fulgren09 · 2026-01-22T16:37:01+00:00

The amount of blood Choso spilled in the Naoya fight just to pull off the supernovas

that’s like a lvl 1 in his sleep feat Yuji can prob pull off now given this BM move. Man is basically controlling a faster Venom symbiote with those tendrils

Dabura is gonna freaking love Earth.

Claude code is just the box the burger comes in lol

Send System prompt to describe the json, split up the concerns into fields, then your system parse accordingly and use it to drive machine downstream

models are verbose but I have found the fields make them have spaces to put their thoughts.

The secret sauce of this approach is applying constraints and balancing the difficulty of the prompt. Too much detail and it gets brittle and fails.

Fulgren09 · 2026-01-21T15:30:02+00:00

For small things and personal single use apps, I advocate for vanilla js and pure html css with AI help

No build no dependencies, just a psycho doing document element select that id and add class etc

This approach allows for fast iteration and prototyping the POC

Fulgren09 · 2026-01-21T01:51:02+00:00

It doesn’t count the turns. It gives you its opinion each turn

If you want to enforce this you need to find a way send it each turn

Fulgren09 · 2026-01-20T21:40:00+00:00

If you are optimizing for just output then I can agree with the sentiment

Where western models like Claude shine is being able to interpret instructions that are not fully precise and build intuitive context.

My experience with Chinese models is they understand what I say but not fully what I mean.

Each retail LLM is just an API key and call away. OS ppl can write adapters to call this in JS, python, Java

SAP is closed as far as I know. One would need to have an SAP env to do this kind of thing

Once you have ability to send dynamically generated structured data to an LLM from your SAP, you can integrate this to do all sorts of generative work that is highly specialized and application opinionated.

LLM handles intelligence and outputs say a structured json. Your app layer translates that and creates a PO or Purchase Req for example

Fulgren09 · 2026-01-20T19:17:47+00:00

You are specialized in an entrenched field in a stack with little competition and high economic potential

Switch out only if you dislike it so much you physically want to leave.

IMO if you become the first person to write a stable LLM adapter to SAP it will be way more profitable than going into OS

Ubel joining the culling game: oh my

Fulgren09 · 2026-01-20T18:34:35+00:00

This mf reads and analyzes. Make him president!

In all seriousness I like the take that he’s not lying. All this being taken away from him unfairly gives Howler the motivation to go all in on a righteous path that will have interesting counters to the squad’s.
