Re:Show HN: The load-bearing vocabulary of Claude

I treat the Claude output that is hard to comprehend as an encoding/encryption. Claude knows how to decipher it, humans don't. I see this frequently in design docs from inexperienced engineers who used LLMs - they will contain terms (often two words hyphenated) that aren't obvious and should be defined, or simply replaced with simple language. If you prompt claude it is able to decipher and explain / replace this gibberish.
Re:Quality of drinking water varies significantly by airline

My understanding is the water tested in this study is the water in the lavatory faucet and what they use to make hot beverages onboard. If you ask a flight attendant for water you would always get water from a can/bottle/box depending on airline, at least based on my limited experience.

Remember NFTs? It was all the rage not that long ago and anyone who questioned otherwise was said to 'not get the big picture'. NFTs were going to improve EVERYTHING.
It's not exactly the same, but the hype is similar.

I hate ads. Used AdBlocker since ~2005 when I was in middle school and first got internet. If I'm going to see ads, they better be relevant.

Hiring one person to do this at a company this scale, will give you results in the next decade. BTW, when the report is complete, it will no longer be accurate. Sure you can scale the process by putting more people on it, but it won't scale linearly. Additionally you will need buy in from all the system managers to dedicate time to assist the new data privacy team. It is doable, but comes at a cost.

This gives you some idea, but it doesn't include coupons, deals and lightning sales in the tracking.
