Running a GPT prompt the length of a short novel to pick my lunch meal. It considers every salad bar option: base, condiments, ingredients, sauce - optimized for keto, nourishing, and tasty. Just need it to order for me now.

I used a dictionary and 10 lines of Python generated by that LLM.
It found 709 pairs out of 140k+ words.
Sometimes AI is just a well-placed set()

who said claude code headless mode with mcp servers and tools?

Still weird to see LLMs generate config for stuff deprecated 30+ months ago—especially when prompted with the up-to-date docs link.

After a few years with Leuchtturm, I’m switching back to Midori. Adjusting from 26x37 to 28x40 pts. Why? I don’t need 251 pages to track a semester - 192 pages are the perfect fit. But I’ll miss the page numbers.
