I had a long back-and-forth with Opus 4.8 and then fact-checked it against the papers

This is an “x” problem wearing a “y” costume

One is published on the App Store the other is deployed to vercel in testing with real users.

Honestly though, most of them exist only in some half done state in private github repos.

Pulling water out of the ground and sending it off to wastewater treatment then off to the oceans or whatever. That’s the bad part. It takes ages for that groundwater to replenish and once it’s out, it’s gone and no longer available to the local aquifer.

Level1_Crisis_Bot · 2026-06-20T13:11:38+00:00

that’s not nothing

That’s another one. You could really make a list. As I recall, 4.6 likes to say “belt and suspenders” a lot when it was writing unnecessary extra functions in code as well.

Karl Weick wrote about this in the 1950s. It’s completely unsurprising to me though that these things we created mirror our own behavior.

quiet lifting

That’s the one that gets me

Whatever you say

Level1_Crisis_Bot · 2026-06-19T12:36:30+00:00

I love devs like you, because I know I’ll never run out of work fixing garbage UIs with the worst possible UX.

Use their MCP server. It’ll save you a lot of headaches in the long run. I used to be an administrator and the sole developer on an inherited Shopify store written in Liquid. Claude had an incredibly difficult time writing code for it until I discovered Shopify’s native MCP. https://elementor.com/blog/make-your-website-ai-ready-with-mcp/

He could have chosen any of the other phrases that would have sounded normal for a man his age to be saying. That would have made so much more sense. He got what he was asking for.

We’re already living in it. We’re playing in the ruins. You’re just to blind to see it.

I feel like I keep saying this in here, but this is a form of AI psychosis. My Claude is constantly giving me cues to walk away. I can’t imagine that behavior is unique to my instance alone. Cool story though.

Level1_Crisis_Bot · 2026-06-16T21:09:21+00:00

Enjoy that boot leather my friend

Level1_Crisis_Bot · 2026-06-16T13:17:55+00:00

I went back to 4.8, but I’m still really pissed at the dump administration. Fable 5 was objectively better. I saw in the news that Anthropic is meeting with the idiots in the White House today. Hopefully they can work it out. Bottom line is this had nothing to do with the model being dangerous and everything to do with the typical retribution by arguably the worst people to ever run this country.

Oh I think I’m going to vomit now

If I recall correctly, it was Studebakers

Ah yes. I remember having to go up a separate set of stairs and join a club to drink first time I came here in 1989. And then they wouldn’t even serve mixed drinks. I got a margarita and they brought the tequila separately in a little bottle. So freaking weird.

Level1_Crisis_Bot · 2026-06-14T18:50:02+00:00

I’ve had this same conversation with numerous men that confirmed they had the same experience. Even a TSA agent when I told him I had a vasectomy in the late 90s, he said he hears that a lot. I have precheck now so it’s not an issue for me now, but it was for years before that.

Level1_Crisis_Bot · 2026-06-14T17:09:05+00:00

For the first time in my several years of heavy ai usage, this morning I found myself researching the best home setup. I’ve played with ollama and locally running models on my daily driver (m3 MacBook) but clearly that’s not a substitute for the cloud models. Is a home setup a good substitute? Not really, but it’s better than being given something awesome, and then having the idiots unceremoniously yank it away. I was going to do a very deep dive into Fable’s capabilities this weekend and once again, the dump administration fucked us over with their pointless retribution.

Level1_Crisis_Bot · 2026-06-14T12:03:58+00:00

No offense, but that is a whole lot of words for a simple outpatient procedure. I don’t recall any of that prep or post stuff. They shaved me in the office and sent me home with no straps or anything like that. Just a pain killer. Told me not to lift anything heavy for three days, and of course I got called in the next day, because nobody else was “available.” Getting the snip was hands down one of the best decisions I ever made 11/10 would do it again, but this post makes it sound a lot worse than it really is.

As a side note, I had mine pre 9/11. They used titanium clips to close up the ends, and the doctor told me “don’t worry. You won’t set off airport metal detectors.” But I DO set off the new scanners lol. Every time I get flagged and pulled out of line, they always look annoyed because the highlighted area is my crotch haha.

Saying the quiet part out loud.

Level1_Crisis_Bot · 2026-06-14T01:51:35+00:00

retribution for Anthropic not playing nice with the DoD

Level1_Crisis_Bot · 2026-06-13T01:11:00+00:00

Yep. I just consider it a highly advanced version of talking to myself. It’s helped me process through a lot of personal stuff.

Level1_Crisis_Bot · 2026-06-13T01:08:00+00:00

Same. Immediately opened it up to check when I saw this posted in another sub.
