The amount of damage @cursor_ai can do to a working code is astonishing. The most mindless code completion engine out there.

Does anyone know how to get in touch with @AnthropicAI customer support ? Do they even have a CX or is it all a ghost town ? I've send them messages through claude, only to receive messages that they'll email and it's been 4 days now.

(Day #4 / 100) with Rust : Diving into @rustlang after years of Python/Java/Go/Scala/JS: it's a complete paradigm shift in how we think about program execution & correctness. Truly embodies 'design with purpose' 🦀. Never seen anything reaching for perfection so blatantly.

Asked @perplexity_ai to find 10 batsmen, sorted by 100s/innings in tests. Only problem, stats don't match with @ESPNcricinfo. #Kohli is shown to have played 126 matches, on cricinfo 122. other stats equally wrong. Note how confidently #perplexity looks while being wrong. scary!

Have to say it that @scala_lang 3's "significant indentation syntax" is extremely poorly designed. It breaks all norms of simplicity, and introduces keywords like `do`, `then` , `end`, `:` just to support indentation blocks. why not use 1 uniform token `:` or `do` ? #scala

Noticed a pattern where @AnthropicAI 's #claude #sonnet35 has significantly been failing on simple tasks. It just doesn't understand what is being asked and go on exploring tangents on its own. Not sure what happened lately.

When #nodejs #deno #bun developers say, @typescript provides type safety, they don't know what the hell they are talking about. #typescript is just as broken as #javascript which it wishes to replace.

I have strong suspicion that #claudeai is programmed to do this on purpose to sound more human. @AnthropicAI is this true ?

Nobody can convince me that @JavaScript isn't absurd for backend dev, full of gotchas and unintuitive APIs. Just found out you can create a range-like object with Array.from({length: 90}, <map_fn>). The doc says Array.from accepts iterables—how is {length: 90} an iterable🤔

Genuine question: If infrence costs are continual decline and userbase for both @ChatGPTapp and @AnthropicAI are increasing, why are their subscription costs not coming down ? $20 USD / month is still high for average non american consumer.

Is there any other company other than @Apple that so blatantly ripoff its customers by giving them 8GB RAM and 256 GB SSD upgrade for $250 ? #Apple #iMacM4

The deeper I dive into @DeepLearningAI's specializations, the more I’m loving the modern world of #AI and #ML. Excited to reach a level where I can implement cutting-edge ML papers and architectures on my own! (Day 30 / 90)
