known grievance merchants vs vaguely conservative economist

only real context is that it's round two; he no-sold similar a month ago

notable mostly for a few new entries in my modlists

me: so this 3 axis space for describing a popular frontier model ... is it tersely descriptive or weirdly horny?

simcluster salesman: what?

i explain the difference between the two

simcluster salesman: it's a good 3d space sir

i get it home and unwrap it

it's weirdly horny

i mean they're not wrong tho

npr is an east-coast liberal wasp favorite

if you don't want to be spoken of in the same sentence as lake woebegone, it might not be for you?

increasing global folly ain't my goal

but i guess this is what config settings are for

we hit an all-you-can eat sushi place (junai 2, up mopac) recently as a kind of early bday dinner

next time it'll be more folks and dinner time, when the menu has a wider selection

infinite stamina is just asking them to manually ddos your model bill

one-and-done qt reply and mute / screenshot w alt-text reply and block

"boss said you ain't welcome and here's why, now amscray"

they can reply into the void all they like after that

i want all the time i spent in my youth discovering it had nothing to do with reality back

may i recommend a blocklist? bsky.app/profile/anti...

yep, and a meta of this is that if you like a bit of media, you can expy it wholesale

suddenly you have an entire framework ready loaded, full of suggestions for characters, settings, and conflicts

that was 60-80% of my design for that campaign, and it worked pretty well

similar situation

i'm planning to shipping deterministic code outputs and design notes, for now

shipping whole agents is a larger ball of wax, and complicated by the issue that anyone who wants an agent probably has their own (incompatible) setup

but maybe ship prompts used, or something similar?

such a powerful technique, esp because you can cast not just actors but characters:
Akichi the lizardman, an honest haberdasher in foreign lands, kept my 14th level PCs tied up for four hours of play with nothing but shopwork and dinner.

(My GM notes basically just say "rip off Garak", and apparently I can do that for hours on end.)

addendum: just hit and navigated another (self-inflicted) race condition with claude

not strong evidence, as it probably wasn't one of the pernicious examples that make race conditions scary

but it did see it and fix it without my intervention
November 30, 2025 at 6:42 PM
bsky.app/profile/anti... will also help if you want to avoid them up front

and i think mutual avoidance like that is the best we can reasonably hope for

more seriously ... kinda? if you find the folks who don't hate it, and stay in the technical weeds, you can talk shop with other folks here

armchair jihadis are generally too lazy to find it

but keep one hand on the block button, just in case

depends: is "butlerian larpers descending like locusts on any mention which breaks containment" discourse?

was it weird that suddenly half the world seemed to know what d&d was, and some fraction of them watched it like a tv show? absolutely, it blew my mind for like 5-15 sec

has it affected how i enjoy ttrpgs myself? not that i can tell
November 30, 2025 at 6:11 PM
but i also don't see the "my thing got popular" angst

of course it did, it's objectively cool, as evidenced by my interest in it

i didn't expect the world to find it cool, because they're philistines

& talking w them about it might be weird

but i already wasn't doing that so this changes little
November 30, 2025 at 6:10 PM
idk about that?

i like all sorts of esoteric stuff

talking about it with others can be awkward if they don't share the interest ("let me tell you about my 17th level paladin")

but getting someone likely into that weird thing only you liked before is also a real thrill
November 30, 2025 at 6:10 PM
just the nature of the beast

bsky hides it in the ui if you say show less, and tells the feed operator somehow, but there's no promise of action nor visibility (by design, & i wouldn't change)

though they have to opt in (iirc) so at least the option being there is a signal that they might care?
