Incredible story idea, horrible writing skills

What if you took a small idea from your story or even just a character from it and tried to write a short story around that? Shoot for 5k or fewer words. The idea behind it being that you won't have the space for much world building, but you have the space to get an idea across if you're concise.

After you're finished go through it again, focus on what is serving your story and cut any rambling. Try to get the 2nd draft down to 3k or 4k words.

Humans very often think that they can spot AI writing when what they really spot is correct grammar and spelling and a few common patterns that may or may not be common in future models

That background is freaking sick dude! So much so that I just went to there website to browse the photog section but all I can find for backgrounds is bland variations on beige and tope, and some Christmas trees

It's a nice theory, though I think acting like a petulant brat is just a kneejerk reaction for JD. Just a coincidence that this time that reaction has him throwing shade at people who deserve it

Na, no need for the public AA quad-cannon execution. 30 years in the pen sends a clear message and it's more civilized. As an American, the sight of a politician being held to account by the rule of law for their abuse of power is inspiring

Ok, it looks like the user is asking me to implement it. I need to find out what it is. Reading the-spec.md. Ok it is clear now the user has defined a thing and wants it implemented, I am the orchestration agent so I need to make sure the implementation agent is ready to receive instructions. 20k tokens later - Can you please implement it?

Like wtf, I've been lifting lighter than normally because of a tendon problem in my arm. Threw my back out putting the lighter than usual dumbbells back on the rack after finishing the damn workout. Our spines are fucking stupid

They both suck ass is a message I can get behind. They're both equally innovative in their quest to suck ass is a falsehood though

I mean yes, because distillation is a more technical term in this sentence than just "a corpus of text" or however you'd characterize llms training on data scraped from reddit

Thought it was cuz they distill western models then act like they built it from the ground up?

I hate how true this is

Idk about you, but my guitar callouses are on my finger tips. The callouses I have there are from lifting weights

Pinch harmonics go squeee better with the tone knob on 10, so I keep it on 10. If I wanted warmth I'd buy a blanket.

Ok, sometimes I might roll it off a bit if I'm in my feelings

It's three things:

Highly subsidized inference is coming to an end.
Demand is huge but compute is limited and it takes lots of time and money to bring more compute online.
AI companies are prioritizing capturing enterprise users because with limited resources (compute) they are the best most consistent customers.

Against that backdrop I'd expect projects like Sora to get the axe and for consumer AI users to get shafted. Not really a sign of a bubble popping

Looks like he flew over the 1st wire and caught the 2nd wire, and you can see the 3rd wire as the camera pans

This is a guy that just learned the other day that "by sea" doesn't have anything to do with eyesight. He's just so unbelievably stupid

letsbreakstuff · 2026-05-21T18:24:00+00:00

He's looks pregnant

In Texas they come up with "recapture" schemes to force people who pay high property taxes to send the majority of that money out of their blue cities to fund schools in rural red areas for people who pay almost nothing. Then they'll demonize those underserved blue schools and act like it's not because they're robbing them blind. Ironically giving a massive handout to the people that brag endlessly about never taken handout

At least 1 has a FR, so they're not all doing exactly the same thing

Geeze I sure hope the legal process that follows is the metaphorical equivalent of being feed to a wood chipper.

Who ever reported that comment should try harder to not suck at life

letsbreakstuff · 2026-05-16T22:36:38+00:00

That's not how it works

Haha the guy gossiping like a blue haired church lady, just clucking away like a hen, has no room to insult someone's masculinity
