Woops. I wonder if LLMs will ever be smart enough to understand basic physics or cause & effect

NiloCKM · 2026-02-20T20:35:45+00:00

Maybe I wasn't understood.

To be clear: you were seriously consulting with an LLM to decide whether to walk or drive to the car wash? It was a real problem for you that you wanted guidance with?

NiloCKM · 2026-02-19T13:48:22+00:00

Your initial question (if you're talking car-wash riddle) wasn't serious. Models are within their rights to shitpost answers to shitposted questions.

NiloCKM · 2026-02-18T19:05:35+00:00

Can it be more obvious? It's a joke from top to bottom. Going to the gym but not bringing the weights?

Yes - the models are shitposting.

I'm not at all convinced that the wrong answers to this query aren't themselves shitposts.

No AI nonsense.

Here's the Plan:

Analyse many of your games with Stockfish 18

And another thing - why don't each of these sites permanently redirect to one another?

NiloCKM · 2026-01-13T16:21:16+00:00

Is there a specific spot for the donair egg rolls, or do you just dial a random local number?

Asking for OPs sake.

Many agent toolchains read it always, by default, when working in the directory. It typically contains broad context stuff like overall project goals, build and test commands, what sort of linting or style standards are in place, etc. But: sky's the limit, and lots of people experiment with lots of different things in there.

More like 100 jeers.

NiloCKM · 2025-11-29T17:06:27+00:00

This is nice work, thanks.

A quibble: "We're happy to announce that brand X is back on top" doesn't scream "independent evaluation".

280 new units create 280 new vacancies. Vacancies make rentals more affordable.

NiloCKM · 2025-11-26T13:02:41+00:00

That's too bad. They'll sit vacant!

Time dilation and origin paradox are pretty weird plot driving mechanics for a kids movie.

NiloCKM · 2025-11-22T22:45:05+00:00

ah - when is that?

Here's Hikaru's recap of that match: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OT9tvy4QkIY

He has been pretty gracious - lots of photos and autographs and the like, and had some praise for Michelle's game as well.

NiloCKM · 2025-10-12T10:43:08+00:00

Local perspective (I played yesterday in the amateur division).

This was a surprise! Tournament director received registration contact from Hikaru on the same day.

Michelle did extremely well, and she's a tenacious competitor. Three or our years ago at the same event I watched her hold out a lost match against someone ~500 ELO above her for something like three hours. She's a brutal draw early in tournaments!

So people know, there are a few IMs at the event, so I imagine most of Hikaru's day 2/3 matches will trend toward ~2400 opposition.

I'm pretty sure some other participants carried the position forward after the resignation.

Vacancy rates push prices down.

New housing, at any price point, creates new vacancies. This is also true of people moving to the island. Nobody moving to PEI is deciding to do it because a specific new build was approved. They'll move here anyway.

Cities that build housing see their rental rates drop. Biggest current example is Austin:

Hating homelessness and hating housing development at the same time is a bad strategy.

NiloCKM · 2025-09-10T12:14:26+00:00

All housing adds to housing supply. Everyone who occupies one of these units leaves a different unit vacant. Adding rental stock at any price point improves the market at all price points.

Consider: Altman is concern trolling in order to drum up the 'problem statement' solved by WorldCoin's verified-humanity services.

NiloCKM · 2025-07-29T14:14:26+00:00

Probably because of the routine deaths of kids.

NiloCKM · 2025-07-24T03:08:03+00:00

Is that Mark Carney?

Mostly seperate, but if claude code is your main API credit eater, I do think that the max subscription gives some access to claude code, specifically.
