I'd lean similarly, but those regimes you list aren't likely going to be done by accident.

I have just taken this in stride but it has struck me a few times recently that everything I see now.. I basically have to classify it as to be immediately discarded or worth my time to even begin reading, and even if I do continue reading then I still have to be constantly evaluating if a person bothered to struggle with (write) it or not.
Quite frankly this is.. fucking terrible? Even worse, the end of something for humanity..?

This reads as some people made up some categories then classified people into them.

Good to see Josh writing, especially after his courses have taken such a hit. He is excellent. As an electrical engineer and also now CS grad and someone who has purchased his courses wanting to be able to work across the entire stack.. yet have also thought "thank god I don't really have to learn css" now (yes, due to increasing model performance).
On that note I may know just enough to be dangerous thanks to Josh (casting spells: e.g. shouldn't we group those in their own container and then within that container shouldn't that be a flex box?). I guess I'm here to say humans are full of contradictions.

Nevermind! I just went down a rabbit hole on "negative hard feature mining" that has simple origins from early days of object detection and bootstrapping!
I'm sure pangram has to deal with a lot of bullshit to keep retraining on new model output though.
Re:Credit Where Credit Is Due
on Tuesday October 20, 2026 @09:03AM (#50165753)
Can someone educate me - does pangram actually work? Why are people acting like this tool is god?
I thought definitively classifying writing was essentially an impossible problem. Of course, we can often smell it, but again, that's not definitive.
