Most people, including really accomplished people, don't have an accurate mental model of how LLMs operate (and why would they?) You see this in widespread beliefs that AI is just copying from known sources, or that it only produces average answers, or that it can't generate effectively novel ideas

That's a legit premium experience I trust was accompanied with a birch switch to beat yourself with. I was more thinking along the lines of the pluralistic end of the sauna spectrum. We could call it the open source and creative commons version... Suggest June or July as prime time.

In this case, doing better means realizing that the Republican Congress is embedded in a system that extends well beyond the system that is specified by the Constitution. To break our TST we must understand, and intervene in, that larger system. 4/4

Claude Code overview - Claude Code Docs
Claude Code is an agentic coding tool that reads your codebase, edits files, runs commands, and integrates with your development tools. Available in your terminal, IDE, desktop app, and browser.

I would suggest getting your Claude legs by just spinning up Claude code in a terminal. It's surprisingly intuitive and much less faff than the web or desktop app implementations. Also more polished and has less weird frustrating foibles.
