@bbech@mastodon.social @ozoned I was surprised too. I wonder what caused the change.

@ozoned Saturday night is usually pretty slammed and loud at most places. Beow's Brews is perfect (library ✅ alcohol ✅) but only if you could shift earlier, because it closes at 4.

@drweissbrot @fasterthanlime Justified text is great in printed media. On the web, the quality of the justification is pretty limited.

Claude is only sycophantic until the bill comes.

@bcantrill@mastodon.social @ahl@mastodon.social Looking forward to it! I'm especially curious to hear ways to stay rigorous when reviewing LLM output from others. Whether it's PRs, job applications, documentation... the sheer volume of these things is increasing rapidly and staying rigorous is getting more challenging.

@mwichary@mastodon.online If I had to bet, my prediction is that garish ads will be added to the free tiers, similar to YouTube & almost every free service on the Web today. But free and paid tiers will have something more subtle. Not "ads" but biases towards certain products, services, etc. Asking chatbox XYZ for shoe recommendations will reliably result in Nike, that kind of thing.

@mwichary@mastodon.online Yeah, it won't last long I'm sure. It may be harder than usual to tell when the enshittification begins because some of he ads/etc will be in plaintext too.
