It doesn’t read as AI to me. The grammar is human-level quality.
You’re doing great so far; keep making more comments like this and you’ll fit right in
I think looking back at history we’d generally find that the most peaceful periods coincided with there being the strongest, fewest hegemons

Claude uses straight, at least for me. I assume they’d use straight so that the curly ones can’t ever be wrong.

Haha glad to see someone else did something like this. A couple weeks ago I asked Claude to recommend a service that would allow me to easily view a local .xml file as an RSS feed. It instead built a .html RSS viewer.

Just want to say respect for making the blog and leading with a self-taught post about tungsten. Very cool dude stuff. Add an RSS feed.

I'm using it on a work-issued ThinkPad with 8 gigs of RAM and an Intel i3. It's fucking horrible

My thoughts exactly. Apple could probably go viral with the original style of ad today.
Not as cool as glasses with a camera in them.
I might have said the same, but ever since a guy showed me a first-person go-karting video he took on his Ray-Ban Metas, I've been hooked on the idea of being able to record experiences like that... so stupid but so cool.
