It was new bike day last week! After about 7 hours worth of ripping around the sandy, loose roads and trails of LA and SD I can say I’m quite happy with the build! (my only gripe is the 11th grade marketing homework level quality of the “exaero gr” branding on the fork, fix incoming 😆)

I do feel bad for this person but the apology to Claude has launched me directly into the sun. I can’t tell if they are repeating the same mistake by assigning too much agency to the LLM or if they are a genius for deflecting responsibility through said assignment of agency? 🫠🫠🫠

my luke warm take is that if people knew what it meant for a compiler to be correct the broader idea of “abstraction” would be much clearer since its usually the first example they encounter note for nerds: this conflates abstraction/refinement with “less detail” which are not necessarily the same

my reviews of the Precision Fuel 60g Chew Bar: all the fragrant charm of a urinal cake in a gummy that will take you at least 5 actual minutes to chew through resulting in a glucose spike second only Everest in its height and rate of ascent (they work real good on rides though)

There are a lot of rather awful things going on in the world just now but fwiw I had a nice bike ride today. (A cool flyover, watch at 10x 😅) strava.app.link/lImUDx6McXb

I don't know that it means overmuch since people who seem disenchanted with AI aren't, afaict, arguing that we can't be rivaled in intellectual power but I found this interesting. (Also you should reading Turing's Cathedral it's a very good book that is only partly about Alan Turing).
