What I notice about Claudish is that it has its preferred cliche’s and overstretched methaphores, it packs too many ideas in a sentence, and to achieve the latter it makes up adjectives.

I should try adding these tips to my system prompt. Is there a shorthand to describe such language use? I am not a native English speaker.


Look up the output-style setting, which is a bit stronger than putting it in the system prompt. The new "concise" setting is better than the default but in practice, Claude is a very stubborn model when it comes to these patterns and they're really hard to eliminate, mostly you can only hope to mitigate.

As for the wording of the prompt, you're pretty on point, I created a custom output style targeting mostly the first two you have there. Some people have wording that demands a certain technical standard or uses fancy words to describe what to avoid, but I haven't seen evidence those work better than asking plainly and I suspect the opposite: LLMs mimic the user to a degree so talking to it in terms of technical specifications and fancy words is an invitation to get them back.


The farm also runs the website that gets paid for ads. Google notices that the site triggers a conversion, so they will get the same ad again… It might be more involved but this is a large part of it.


The phone shows a date of April 1 in several screenshots. I would guess that is to pretend that the images were for an april fools joke in case they leaked?


The false chanterelle that I know is not poisonous.

The real thing is plentiful enough I don't mess with them, but I know people that regularly eat the false ones.


How feasible would it be to only offer a binary git (partial) download and move the html rendering to the client? It would still be a lot of requests, but less work for those servers. Not that I like SPA’s, but they could be useful here.


What also changed is bands don’t sell records any more. You got to pay the bills somehow.


Music piracy really did a number. People like to blame cheap streaming, but it's only cheap because the market knows it can't charge very much before people pirate instead. A CD album was about $18 in the early 2000s, so $32 today.


Careful what you wish for…


You only need one dev with the bright idea to pass data around via a clientside blob or cookie.


I don’t know if this is sarcastic. A lot of bloat in GUI apps is because they are built as websites with a bloated front end, dependencies, custom fonts plus the binary compiled code and the decompressed images cached by the browser.


When I was working on a post recently, I rediscovered that it is actually fun to draw. Much more fun than debating with an AI tool to generate an image for me. And given the time I already spent on the subject matter, the effort was not that much more. I can recommend drawing on paper. You can correct mistakes after scanning.
