Me: Okay, there's been a thunderstorm, the heatwave should be over now. (New health bar appears) (The sun is now named 'Sol, Starflame of Regret') (Objectively the greatest piece of classical music ever recorded starts playing).

I think to deal with the heat today I'll just do the sensible thing and throw myself into a wood chipper

Ok let‘s go

Anyway, my theory - FWIW - is that lots of the experienced and senior people who are hooked on LLMs are actually having a midlife crisis, and that spending money on Claude is cheaper than buying a Lambo buttondown.com/justenoughin...

my friends, it's so hot, don't waste your precious energy on people who are being wilfully ignorant. they don't deserve it.
