This. I had a 10000 line css file, and told it to do a find and replace on some colours. It was hilariously bad at this and started chewing tokens. Asking it to write a script to swap it out and then execute that script for me and it was done instantly. Knowing the right questions to ask an AI is everything.

I actually have noticed it do this by itself a couple of times, it's where I got the idea to do the same

This is huge news if we finally have a model that is able to say "I don't know".
jofzar · 17 days ago
If a model doesn't "know" what a PM is then I worry about any of its other outputs. That should be dictionary lookup.

It's not just erotic role play that the censorship affects. My life involves a lot of sexual discussions and that means that everyday talk, chat summaries, email rewrites or translations will cause the model to shut down. I do the latter a lot especially to find colloquialisms because Google translate is often too literal. It's so annoying.

Right now I'm using abliterated llama 3.1. I have no need for vision but I want to use the saved memory for more context so 3.2 is not so relevant. Llama 3.1 is perfect. But I want to try newer models too.

Until gpt-oss can be uncensored it's no use to me. But if there was nothing erotic in its training data it can't be. And no, I never have it do erotic roleplay. I'm not really interested when there's no real people involved.

Sorry just to ask, what kind of job do you have? Sex therapist sounds like the closest?

A lot of "engineers" nowadays don't know the concept of per-user/customers configs and how to build/expose them to non-technical staff.

The main appeal of feature flags is simplicity and being a low-hanging way to apply per-customer/user configuration, few platforms allow true a/b testing (amplitude comes to mind but I'm sure there are more).

Statsig and launchdarkly are the one that come to mind for me.

I've played guitar for 23 years, and there is something just off-putting about most of the music on that page, but particularly "Yellow Bus Jam".

The guitar solo sounds very unnatural, especially the phrasing, which is totally random. Blues musicians are actually attempting to say something through their instrument. This was just a random number generated solo played by a 6 finger three handed robot. No thanks, lol.

I really wonder if it's the singing are the reason, it's like amazingly off beat it's so jarring.

“Let’s try a different approach” always makes me nervous with Claude too. It usually happens when something critical prevents the task being possible, and the correct response would be to stop and tell me the problem. But instead, Claude goes into paperclip mode making sure the task gets done no matter what.

"let's try a different approach" 95% of the time involves deleting the file and trying to recreate it.

It's mind-blowing it happens so often.

Ah nothing like a double emdash early to know that the page is not worth reading.

I’d care about this if I was selling in India or Africa.

If I’m selling to cash cows in America or Europe it’s not an issue at all.

As long as you have >10mbps download across 90% of users I think it’s better to think about making money. Besides if you don’t know that lazy loading exists in 2025 fire yourself lol.

It really depends on who your clients are and where they are.

https://www.mcmaster.com/ was found last year to be doing some real magic to make it load literally as fast as possible for the crapiest computers possible.

I'm curious which mailbox they sent to, trying to find a mailbox is surprisingly hard even with my Google searching.

My favourite part form the original report was that paradox had no way to find their security team ( to contact) and their security page just had "We worry about security, so you don't have to."
