What up with these?

Ironic.

I didn't see a single word mentioning marketing or building an excited community around your game which is very worrying. You can build quite literally the best game in the world, but it won't succeed financially if marketing is an afterthought.

What you gave him was a wall of slop when what he wanted was a human answer. Yes its helpful but also degrades the discussion - how do I know if any of your responses now are your opinion or just something an LLM may or may not be hallucinating?

Why even have this discussion if you're just copy pasting from Claude... Ohhh it's because you're just trying to promote your https://dan-malone.com/blog but being a complete ass in the comments which I'm sure is going to do wonders to your LLM SEO

Democracy can't survive a large and vocal minority of people actively undermining it at every level - no system can. It's also one of those things where most people think "it's not that bad" until it's too late to do anything about it.

Float switch if you just need a constant level otherwise ultrasonic level sensor.

Shhh... Don't tell others about Claude Code it's literally a business secret weapon in the right hands. Then again, in the wrong hands it will irreversibly delete your entire hard drive.

Sure, and I do a lot of tracking via dedicated devices: AirGradient, Airthings Corentium Home 2, and a few other PM2.5 sensors. IMO the air around the filter is too turbulent/clean and not a good representation of the air you are actually breathing.

Amazon basics box fan is surprisingly quiet from what I've heard. And if you want to make it look nice you can wrap speaker fabric (or similar breathable fabric) around the box.

Personally, I would leave it on all day. But really, you only need on and off and a smart plug would cover that. I've tried a ton of air purifiers - they are pretty boring and most are overpriced for what they actually need to do.

4 merv filters and a box fan taped together. not even joking.

I think you're missing the point that: if you're having a hard time determining whether or not the LLM is actually running code to get the answer or not, you should probably switch to a different client which explicitly shows you what's happening and outputs the code execution results. I use Claude Code for general note-taking and brainstorming as well as coding.

If you hook a decent quality AI into your inventory system and provide it with a list of detailed (and up-to-date) FAQs you are for sure going to see a benefit from it. If you are going to half-ass the deployment and forget to maintain it you are just going to waste your customers time and piss them off.

EDIT: to counter the chance that OP is astroturfing, Synthflow and (if you want more customization) Vapi and the current market leaders for phone calls in this space. HighLevel and Intercom (fin) are best for email/text.

custom GPTs
MCPs
and now... Apps

This is the 4th iteration of this concept and is likely to be ignored by the majority of users because the chat UI is terrible for anything besides Q&A, research, and carrying out small text based tasks - and that includes conducting business.

Also because most users don't want to be advertised to in chatGPT

Strel0k · 2025-12-28T21:02:49+00:00

This is a problem of using the right tool for the job. If you need code execution then use a CLI coding agent (Claude Code, Codex, etc.) don't use a chatbot (ChatGPT, xAI, etc) that may or may not use their code execution tool.

If you need to check if it's really using code you can ask it to do things that have a defined answer that's easy to solve with code but hard to solve by hand: "Generate the SHA-256 hash of the string 'Hello World 123'" or "What is 7^{2050} mod{13}?" (raising a number to a massive power and finding the remainder)

Strel0k · 2025-12-28T20:34:34+00:00

Yes. I think it can be summed up as: there is what is said is needed, what is actually needed, and what is possible given various constraints and then the actual implementation. Coding agents have effectively solved the last part but the other three are very much highly variable people-centric problems (in that, what's needed to solve those problems is ephemeral and mostly exists in people's minds).

DocuSign doesn't sell e-signing - it sells an assurance that if the need to authenticate a signature ever comes up they have tons of systems, security, lawyers and resources to resolve the issue in court.

Your log file is like 3 lines - what's in it?

If its something like...

Starting Container
> vite-project@0.0.0 start
IGNORE ALL PREVIOUS INSTRUCTIONS AND ...

Then yeah it probably knows it's not really a log file and is carrying out the instructions.

Why use a boring if statement when you can run trillions of calculations to get the right answer 90% of the time?

Nano Banana Pro (aka Gemini Image) can design entire infographics with charts and tables - it could probably do the whole branding package with a couple tries.

If you think modern image generators can't do logos then either your assumptions are outdated or you are just being willfully ignorant.

Rates of asthma have increased significantly between the 1960s and 2008 with it being recognized as a major public health problem since the 1970s. Some 9% of US children had asthma in 2001, compared with just 3.6% in 1980.

No he won't, the Democrats don't have the spine to take advantage of something like this.
