I was under the impression that the DoD was not a big fan of Claude.. Codex perhaps?

  • > DoD

    I still can't wrap my head around the fact that the guy who made his campaing on ending wars the first thing he does after being elected changes the name from DoD to DoW and starts new wars.

    • >> changes the name from DoD to DoW

      But he didn't. That requires congressional action. The DoW is just a "secondary" name attached via executive order. Contracts still say DOD. The only reason people are saying "DoW" it is to appease certain forceful personalities.

    • Yes, surprising in a "I can't believe this is happening" way, not in a "this was unexpected" way. He made his campaign on ending everything. Diving headfirst into the first conflict he could with 0 understanding is the most expected thing that could've happened.

    • I still can't wrap my head around the fact that the guy was well known for being a liar and a charlatan and yet he was apparently the only politician Americans took implicitly at their word.

      Like you'd think Americans would have learned after "read my lips, no new taxes" even if they somehow memory-holed Trump's entire first administration. But I guess not.

Yes, i don't know why, but i can literally smell that its generated, but it doesn't matter.

Is there actually a term for every discussion about something code related turning into a debate about LLMs, just increasing the signal to noise ratio on the topic at hand?

I'll throw 'second order AI slop' into the ring.

Sounds like incredible progress if a middle schooler can do what took a team of professionals (or one focused adult nerd) less than two decades ago

  • A bunch of middle/high schoolers could probably build something that looks like a bridge.

    I don't know if I'd want to drive on it.

    • Do I actually have to tell you that a metaphor comparing between a govt website about aliens and physical infrastructure doesn’t hold?

  • You'd hope so, but no, the website is ugly and immediately reeks of LLM boilerplate.

    I miss the days when 18F made bespoke sites from scratch.
