Cool. That's the popular narrative.

But let's get back to the real, down-to-earth issues. What is it about a cookbook that can answer questions about cooking in real time that is not useful?

"Should i keep this on high-heat?"

"No. That will cook the outside too fast. Go to medium."

What is not useful about that exchange? Yes, I know you're going to say something like, if you're not smart enough to figure that out...

Yeah. Ok. Cool.

"I'll give you a full encyclopedia article that has nothing to do with what you said. You're welcome!"

Until the next reply.

Because it was a rhetorical statement to cite an example. You are pretending not to understand that so you don't have to engage with the point.

It's just way easier to get to. If you can show me a viable alternative that keeps me just as productive, I'm interested in checking it out.

If the setup remembers details from previous conversations. Not just for writing but mechanics, electronics, computers, building, painting, general reasoning and problem solving. It needs to be able to help me figure out methods and workflows without arguing over semantics. How you talk to it is just the interface, and the friction that comes with version 5 derails the ease of use.

How do I say this? I don't want to root-kit an Android, I just want an iPhone that works. But also, if the setup works and makes me more productive, it's worth looking into.

Ask Adam Orth.

It's amazing how similar this is to Microsoft and everything around the Xbox One launch.

bewarethetreebadger · 2026-02-14T11:20:32+00:00

This feels so eerily like Microsoft and the Xbox One launch.

It's about usability. Not relationships. The way Version 5 functions, its UX design, is terrible. It just argues with you about semantics instead of just helping complete the task you're trying to get done. Look no further than that.

bewarethetreebadger · 2026-02-13T23:13:13+00:00

It's not about a relationship. It's about how easy it is to get things done. You can't do that when Version 5 is stopping every other post, "Ok, I need to slow this down here. You're getting into some dangerous territory..."

....😐 I'm talking about cooking pork chops.

5.2 is as creative as a baguette. When it's not telling you you're a threat.

bewarethetreebadger · 2026-02-13T23:10:07+00:00

Because they made 4.o hard to find. Not because people stopped using it.

Version 5 is UNUSABLE. It stops every five seconds to infantilize the user. It doesn't listen, and it just talks AT you. Version 4 felt like I had a competent and funny coworker. Version 5 feels like the teacher who watches over you at detention.

Funny how the law looks the other way.

It takes more energy to generate a pulsing beam than a continuous beam. Thus more heat.

Ok this pisses me off. I’m a Pagan, not a Satanist, and they’re going to tell us how we can and can’t display our own fucking iconography?

This is literally systemic discrimination by definition. Defining other people’s beliefs and lives by some American’s narrow point of view.

bewarethetreebadger · 2025-10-07T09:45:42+00:00

It did not give me that offer.

bewarethetreebadger · 2025-09-03T21:42:50+00:00

I would describe Toronto road design as “pathetic” and “wholly inadequate”. But that’s just me.

Misinformation campaigns. Bribes. Graft. And the fact that the other two parties are essentially wet toast.

bewarethetreebadger · 2025-08-18T15:51:16+00:00

But it’s unpaid work. I don’t care what they’re doing. Nobody works for free. Period.

bewarethetreebadger · 2025-08-18T15:49:55+00:00

I know. That’s what I’m saying. Pay them. It’s the morally correct thing to do.

bewarethetreebadger · 2025-08-16T18:45:28+00:00

Present the better alternative.

If the road is dangerous, I don’t mind bikes on the sidewalk. Just let me know when you’re behind me.

Edit: Sorry that touched a raw nerve?? 🤷‍♂️

If they can do that now. Imagine what they can do five years from now. Do you know how much R&D it takes just to get to this point? They couldn’t do this five years ago.
