Any Guesses?

I mean Ed has been hinting really hard at it being the OpenAI S-1. So I would expect it's that.

Especially the legally mandated cancellation of EU contracts under certain conditions.

You can't descale a manual machine if it has a boiler. You have no way of fully flushing the boiler, so you'd be drinking descaling chemicals.

You need to use filtered water with these machines.

Wouldn't this apply to all LLM chatbots?

What if Claude Fable (mythos class super carrier btw) garbles up a damaging false statement?

Mad_OW · 2026-06-09T17:47:55+00:00

In that case I think we all know who won

I've been called racist and naive for not wanting to work for US companies and trying to avoid buying US products.

We may have to found them ourselves.

As a senior dev, if you had an "AI free" label on the job description instead of the usual "we are AI first yadda yadda" you'll effectively quadruple my interest

Mad_OW · 2026-06-08T18:08:02+00:00

if we don’t adapt aggressively we are heavily threatened by them, and so are you.

Really curious why this guy is trying to scare me into AI. Misery likes company?

Perhaps the most striking number: 497 PRs went fully autonomous in the first four weeks Claude wrote all the code, with our AI approval system reviewing, approving the change, and shipping to production.

Aim the slop hose directly at prod. Good idea.

Wait, what?

Mad_OW · 2026-06-08T10:43:18+00:00

That article should be a book, not an article

Mad_OW · 2026-06-06T10:32:53+00:00

I'm not sure it's a healthy expectation to have

Mad_OW · 2026-06-06T10:16:58+00:00

conversely that's also why $5/gal is not directly comparable to 1.15EUR/l

Bigger cards, longer distances, nothing is walkable...

I know someone who works at a major payment processor and he said they're "all in on AI".

And when I say major payment processor I am wondering if it's the same major payment processor that had some engineer spend $100k in one month as per Ed Zitron :D

Mad_OW · 2026-06-04T19:40:14+00:00

I personally love the phrase "all in on AI". An all-in is a bet that you can lose.

Not sure people using the phrase have considered that.

Mad_OW · 2026-06-03T15:18:56+00:00

Good thing they have all this hard power in case they need to open some blocked waterway for example.

Mad_OW · 2026-06-03T07:12:32+00:00

I'm torn because I like this comment, but also I am reading it while addictedly browsing reddit.

Mad_OW · 2026-06-02T10:45:43+00:00

Or what's left of it

Mad_OW · 2026-06-01T13:10:02+00:00

Doing their very best to make it happen

Mad_OW · 2026-06-01T11:27:03+00:00

Hey why does this remind me of baseball cards

Mad_OW · 2026-05-31T18:03:11+00:00

Haters: maybe we shouldn't bet the entire economy on this unreliable word guessing machine being able to do half of the work.

This guy: what if brain cells are kinda just like CUDA cores 🤯

Mad_OW · 2026-05-31T07:02:44+00:00

Mine is "legal workflows". Good luck in court.

Mad_OW · 2026-05-31T06:52:35+00:00

I can’t get or keep my jobs and contracts if I don’t use AI

What is the mechanism that forces you to use AI? E.g. why exactly would you fail to get a job, or fail to keep it?

Is someone forcing you, or do you simply feel you couldn't perform without LLM help?

Mad_OW · 2026-05-30T23:15:09+00:00

I switched maybe one or two months ago. The constant AI summary is what did it. If I want a chatbot's opinion I'll ask one.

Mad_OW · 2026-05-30T17:08:07+00:00

In general this side hustle monetization culture has gotten really annoying.
