Disgree except with the food desert thing. Theyreactually way cheaper than some chemically-generated-fiber cookies n cream bar bullshit. Its just that they take some effort and time to make and everyone wants convenience
So dont listen to it? I mean what is the problem here.

I never listen to basically anything spotify recommends me, just songs from bands I already know and love. And if I were to purchase the whole discography of the breadth of music I listen to it would cost the down payment on my house

I just took the test. It makes it VERY hard to express right wing viewpoints as it expresses them in extreme and obviously negative terms. I think it would be pretty hard to get anyone to score roght wing on that test
What? Are you kidding? Youre equating anti AI sentiment with anti-black racism?

Thats so fucking absurd and also insensitive

How can you afford a 300k mortgage at 55k a year. That would be a very large percent of monthly pay right?

Youve never heard of someone being addicted but youve been taking it nearly every day for a decade? Do you hear yourself?

People keep making comments about fable like this? You could only use it for what like a week? How is that at all enough time to evaluate? Opus 4.6 didnt suffer from this problems for a hot minute and then when newer models were released it got worse. I think they change a ton behind the scenes and allocate compute however they want, so the model you use today may behave much differently than how it behaved yesterday
Claude today is trash vs claude when opus 4.6 came out. Its slow as fuck, goes on cknstant rabbit trails, wont do what you tell it, gets anwers wrkng etc
Trump is great at gettinf christians to completelt forget their moral stances

I reallt think forum comments are heavily astrotrufed. Me and all my coworkers agree Opus performance has been horrible for the last to months or so.

I went from spending 20-60 dollars a day in api fees down to like 5 dollars a day cause I have had to limit my use to things I know it performs reliably on.

Damn bro you're so cool

I mean, you could probably make these comparispns in 2006 when the movie came out. Perhaps it wasnt prophetic but rather just a sature of the general human condition
