well i’ve come across it loads, especially 1/2) during REPL style build outs and 2/2) calling libraries and frameworks you are not yet familiar with.
perl another offender… is it a hash? is it an arrayref? over time you get it right, but by trial and error and looping. json suffers this too, arrays different from strings, different from numbers etc, but opaque until checked and liable to change
I've just put GLM 5.2 through my __qualitative__ benchmark. I was quick enough to capture Claude Fable, so now you can compare GLM5.2 vs Claude Fable vs Opus 4.8 vs Chat GPT 5.5
check the backlinks[1][2] in the article before you start throwing around accusations. I am not (yet) a person that has advanced notice and access to models.
Fable just got announced and I did a rush out article because people are curious. I released the post mere hours afterwards and it takes time to create the output, slice into videos, make a wordpress article on top of taking my son to basketball training and eating dinner. I’m in London and this was all happening at 1am.
If you check the links my previous articles have all the juicy stuff you are criticising me for not having with little preparation.
How is a side by side direct comparison NOT precise?
The John Snow Pump… where they sealed it up to stop Cholera is very small.
Also Novelty Automation (WC1R 4AX) is a tiny interactive museum/wharf end arcade which has some very intricate mechanical entertainments. Some are tiny.
Wait until they find out how many people place perfectly timed horse racing bets on the winning horse, JUST before the start of the race. 100% of them knew to back the winning horse
My latest game BossBattle[1] (html5, have a play) uses AI for graphics, some strobe effects, a C64 loading screen shader.
I have decided to lean in to it and I will document all the places I use AI in the game on my blog[2]. Not everything works, notably 3D assets[3] and sound effects.
There is a lot of human content… i paid for a lot out of my own pocket and have limited budget. It started in 2021 before chatgpt. LLMs cannot do everything and that’s not the purpose.
Generative AI makes me as an solo indie dev able to make the game. Without the AI the game wouldn’t exist
Terminals are text. Text adds features missing from gui namely:
* Ad Hoc
requirements change and terminal gives ultimate empty workbench flexibility. awesome for tasks you never new you had until that moment.
* Precision
run precisely what you want, when you want it. you are not constrained by gui UX limits.
* Pipeline
cat file.txt | perl/awk/sed/jq | tee output.result
* Equal Status
everything is text so you can combine clipboard, files, netcat output, curl output and then you can transform (above) and save. whatever you like in whatever form you like, named whatever you like.
In spare time I make:
