if you use LLMs for any sort of serious work i deeply feel for you

copilot is like using a pre-print age copying monk to write code for you from other code they copied in the past except the monk has had a lobotomy and people keep praising how useful it is and then wonder why software is so shit and wasteful today

now more than ever, despite all misgivings about new leadership and layoffs at mozilla, if you care about the internet and you're still using chrome/ium over firefox, you are the problem

now i wanna make modern qwk

i don't like gemini because i think it's an echo chamber that largely ignores everything that made the early web great (interactivity, marquee and blink, plugins, gaudy css) and only works for modern computers. i'm gonna come up with a qwk-like thing and i'm gonna target windows 98.

i enjoy people who go out of their way to completely ignore advice. "how do i clean corrosion off a PCB" "vinegar and then IPA" "i'm gonna use wd-40 instead." 👍
