Daily bunny no.3164 finds the smugglers' hideout

I’m all for using LLMs when it makes sense, but the walls of text are unnecessary where a few bullet points suffice.

Captain Haddock looking very frazzled, saying, “What a week, huh?” Tintin leans into the frame and says, “Captain, it’s Wednesday.” Snowy is very excited about the drink he has found.

Good reflexes and a frozen shoulder don’t go well together 😫

last week i remembered that macOS lets you set your own icons and that *I* have the power to delegitimize the professionalism of the software that runs on my machine, so here's a thread of the 16 new icons i've made so far i really forgot how fun it was to just sit down and make art for myself :')

Writing LLM evaluation criteria is an art

Convenient!
