The world today if AI models never saw any legal documents and laws during their pre-training.

AI-generated technical docs are crap. It’s not just the choice of smarty-pants words. It’s failure to generalize and be concise, constant repetition and long lists of synonyms and concepts. Where AI got it from? I think I know the answer. It’s legalese. It’s how lawyers write.

I never understood 8h overnight sleeper trains when I was younger. You need some time to unwind and get to sleep, then wake up in advance for morning routine and breakfast. Too little time for good night sleep remains. Now I’m older and I do understand.

Coding agents be like: "config can classify this macro family without another name hard-coded in the grammar". Wait, what!? What do you mean by _another_ hard-coded name in the grammar?

I've updated my 5 year old Polyhedra Explorer pet project from Kotlin 1.5 with WebGL and KotlinJS React frontend to Kotlin 2.4 with Compose Web and Wasm. All migration done by 5.6 Sol in 2 hours with a single prompt. 2x speed up as a result due to JS->Wasm transition. ⬇️
