I don't care if you have 3 followers or 200k, I will follow you because your feed seems interesting to me
Small accounts get pretty creative in trying to understand this algo.
I've one-shot (jk many many-shot) this in my desperation.
Esp. when 90% of all followers are bots, people who never reciprocate or lurkers wasting your precious impressions.
I'll give it 1-2 more weeks, then I'm coming back (I think).
I'm bombarded with these kinds of videos on my second account because I watched one to figure out wtf that was.
Can't even "not interested" them now.
Please tweak the algo it's doing a lot of weird things lately.
Why are music embeddings so bad in here? Nobody from the engineers enjoying some music?!
What's wrong with you guys...

With MSW 3.0 released this week, I want to try something new to make the project financially sustainable. I wrote an open letter about the project, its history, and impact on the ecosystem.
I ask for five minutes of your time to read it. Thank you.

Tips for prompting:
> LLM provides a long response. You glance over it and voice-to-text: "I agree with what you're saying, can you focus on..."
A long response is a sign it might have started to ramble because it couldn't infer the appropriate response or the task was too big (context issue, unclear goal). Read what it wrote - ask it to summarize in easily consumable bullets (format issue) - DO NOT AGREE otherwise you are biasing the model towards his behavior and you're polluting the context.
> LLM under-delivers, needs handholding, asks you to take over.
Role, defining the workflow and specifying goals will help with that. A clear task spec will too. Context might be too convoluted - you can try with a new session. Use /goal when appropriate - probe if the task is clear by summarizing the job at hand.
> LLM sidelines work, patches here, patches there, starts to patch foreign libraries.
Grounding and lack of architecture understanding. Likely you've vibecoded into oblivion without reading and correcting code organization / abstractions. Use a boilerplate or example project as a started. Review it before to understand it's architecture. Organize folders first and make sure you don't need big bang changes (single app repo -> mono repo conversion, framework A to framework B)

If code review didn't matter, I wouldn't use Rust. I would ask agents to write C. Or even assembly.
Choosing Rust for its compile-time guarantees is admitting agents make mistakes.
And if I don't trust them with memory, why trust them with business logic?
Hot take: I am really really exhausted to deal with neuro-divergent and cluster-b personalities (narcissists, psychopaths, borderline)
The amount of effort I'm giving towards catering to these people is disproportionately lower than what I receive back. Don't get me wrong - I'm selfless and trying to learn this trait. But at what point do you say "enough is enough, you're on your own"
The older I get the more society labels me as the white privileged man that should give back everything he has so he can suffer and others can benefit to fix the scale.
I'm tired, boss. Honestly looking for a framework that makes this easier to handle. Social media isn't helping. Politicians and influencial people are amongst those weirdos, too.
Feels like you're screwed if you aren't dumb and/or neurodivergent yourself and/or an egotistical maniac.
No offense ment, a rant I'm not really proud of. But as I said, I need to get this off my shoulders, because I'm tired boss.
Kyle Cook is right tho.
Theo is not really prompting, nor is he really focusing on the problem.
Maybe a bad example for somebody streaming this video but these are terrible prompting practices.
But the example (!) is good: focusing, reading code and communicating clearly is even more important in this brainrot era.
I love this generational movement and the impact gen x - z have to the alcohol industry.
When I was 16+ if you go to a bar you were allowed to drink beer. 18+ wine, spirits & liquor. And yes, we drank - sometimes a lot.
Getränkemark (liquor/bevarages store) was filled with different kinds of beers , and everything luring you towards drinking "good beer".
If you drank any mix-drink, you were labeled gay! Fastforward in my 25+ this whole thing started to shift:
More people driving, more virgin cocktails, and fancy low alc cocktail drinks came out. More 6packs of non-alcoholic drinks too. Spezi was know as THE german drink (Coke + Fanta mixed)
Beer - good still. Solid but consumed occasionally - at good weather. And this showed in the statistics where breweries had to find a solution. Fizz drinks: Brausen / Fassbrause.
Fruity occasionally fermented drinks - invented to reuse the beer equipment that was underutilized now. The market flooded with delicious hipster drinks.
The market has spoken. And since 30+ I enjoy fassbrause, spezi, fritz kola and "zero" the most.
Thank you for letting me drink at 16 and get schooled by life. Nobody in my friend-zone got hurt - we're all 0% enjoyers now.
Very interesting! Now that I think of it, I actually don't think I know a single person with a +$1M net worth who drinks (or at least gets drunk).
Interesting correlation.
My wife and I stopped drinking when she was pregnant almost 5 years ago and we haven't touched alcohol since.
