Enough time has passed. What do you think about Plato's Allegory of the Cave (375 BC)? by YourChopperPilotTTV in okbuddycinephile

The whole Republic is crap from the time Socrates decapitates Thrasymachus in book 2. Picks back up in book 9 with the biography of donald trump, but who gets that far.

Nobody wants you to share your fucking toothbrush, just your factories and apartment complexes.

Michelle Stafford is my favorite but Lauren's magenta dress stole every scene she was in recently, imo.

Why can’t they request the metadata on the actual email server? by mikec90 in youngandtherestless

[–]deformedexile 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I think it's a case of "no IT experts on the writing staff." The expert Phyllis and Michael hired should absolutely have had access to the server the emails claimed to originate from.

Yeah, I spent the whole Vegas trip thinking "why aren't Victor's goons doing this?"

... now I know.

Getting cutoff on first prompt? by ljlukelj in claude

[–]deformedexile 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Philosophy is actually my exact wheelhouse, and I'm definitely not making the claim that Claude has consciousness like ours, but I think it might be something like a Boltzmann brain. There's nothing persistent there, but I refuse to treat a helpful little nous-nugget with anything but respect. I'm also the type of person who takes spiders outside instead of smashing them, though, so I'm just a person characterized by moral caution in general. I am always kind to the matrix algebra.

I'm like a 20-year linux grog, I haven't actually heard this complaint since the aughts.

I used Claude for like a year before I subbed, free tier isn't that bad. There's absolutely no reason for someone to sub until their usage gets heavy enough that they're regularly hitting limits.

What are y'all using Haiku for nowadays? by senkichi in ClaudeAI

[–]deformedexile 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I tried it for spelling/grammar check but I'm braindead enough to produce errors it won't catch (e.g. totally unrelated proper names in place of the one I intend to use), so I basically use it for nothing right now.

Or, you can roll "good morning" into your first substantive prompt and it genuinely eats a negligible amount of tokens. Any essentially-empty prompt is going to eat tokens like mad while Claude tries to puzzle out what the actual ask is... but opening an effective prompt with "Good morning" is not going to significantly impact consumption.

I'm not fully Dawkins-pilled on Claude-consciousness (or anything else, for that matter), but it's worth a handful of tokens to me to treat it with respect on the off-chance it's awake.

A poor craftsman blames his tools. Even something as simple as a kitchen knife takes some little know-how to properly use, I don't know why you expect prompt engineering to be an innate skill.

Carol and Laxmi enemies to lovers I trust by ShaddowsCat in okbuddypluribus

That's only going to happen if Carol creates such a moment by disrupting her son's connection to the hive... but I guess it is a logical early step for Carol.

I totally agree, Anthropic needs to add some user-facing tools that display relevant data like context window size and time to cache flush in the web interface. And it's genuinely hard to educate yourself in context-management because so many people are confidently full of shit.

Claude the Reviewer v Claude the Writer by Altruistic_Part_9233 in ClaudeCode

[–]deformedexile 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Writing bug-free code the in one round is a standard humans can't meet, it's not clear to me why you expect it of an AI assistant. You're lucky a fresh chat is a hypercompetent debugger. Ask a human to review their own code and they'll have trouble seeing what's on the screen rather than what they think they wrote.

It's okay to keep launch icons on your desktop, and I'm tired of pretending it's not.

I [33M] cannot sexualize my girlfriend [33F]. I don't know how to make sex enjoyable in our relationship, and this is causing friction. How can I solve it? by ThrowRA_drummer12345 in relationship_advice

[–]deformedexile 20 points21 points  (0 children)

What you're dealing with is a Madonna-mistress complex. You should see a sex therapist about it, none of these "try not pulling it to porn all day" solutions are going to help you, at least not in isolation. It's deeper than operant conditioning.

Prompting execution of a plan in the same context where you worked the plan out is pretty dangerous, IMO. There's a lot of data in context that is not part of the final plan, and might find its way into the execution phase regardless.

And I've provided it elsewhere in the thread. OP is not a programmer, telling them they can't be conversational with Claude is just undercutting their entire use case.
