  • How is that patch sloppy?

    I feel the term slop is being overused to cover anything an LLM has touched. If I ask an agent to re-read a mail thread for me and apply the changes to my tree to review is that slop? Would you feel better about it if I copy and paste from email to code in my editor?

    I’ve just been doing a bunch of bug triage which was mostly driven by the agent although I checked the issues where it had commented. Was that slop? Ironically a lot of the issues where AI generated although for the most part more complete than a lot of the purely human submissions we get. Are those bug reports slop? What about the poorly drafted human ones?






  • At 43 that’s probably a little earlier than the OP expected and if their daughter wasn’t planning on starting that early it’s going to affect school and job prospects.

    That’s not too say it can’t work. One of my in-laws had their first at 18 and now as their last leaves for uni they are still fit and young enough to enjoy the empty nest experience.



  • I think Labour and Reform are also being crap here. However Zack has been riding the protest vote wave and as he gains popularity he gets more scrutiny. You might say it’s all the biased media’s fault but a politician complaining about scrutiny is a poor look.

    He certainly spends a lot of time on social media happily clicking away. He should spend more time learning the basics of economics so he doesn’t complain about being ambushed on understanding the debt and the deficit.
