Ask ChatGPT or Gemini to give you a web page's CSS color, or from a screenshot, is still trash. HEX, HSL, RGB doesn't matter. They cannot give you the correct and accurate color. At least for now. Both will try and give you a wrong interpretation.

ChatGPT tries to please and leans optimistic. Keep poking at it and stay skeptical, and you’ll get great results. Gemini 3 knows a lot but often feels like a Negative Nancy, and its hallucinations hurt credibility. ChatGPT feels like a peer; Gemini feels high and mighty.

Instead of having humans (peers) doing Design Crits and Design Reviews, have AI help you. You'd be surprised by how good some of the feedbacks are.

Opening statements for Grandpa Vicha's case will finally begin 12/8 at 9am, Dept 23, after 4+ years of delays by public defender Raju and ideological judges like Linda Colfax - who is presiding over the murder trial. Will Grandpa Vicha get justice?! We've tracked Judge Colfax in

Long-time Starbucks shareholder, heavy coffee drinker. 3rd Wave coffee culture wasn’t really a thing for me. There are signs the turnaround is working, but they need to fix pastries quality ASAP. It’s been tasting like airline food for years.

Peak Japanese government English. I think what it's trying to say is: “Are you traveling with family? Do you want to fill out their customs forms together with yours?”

LLMs are great for sanity-checking on misleading MSM bullshit narratives. Most of the time you can spot the BS, and check your assumptions quickly. Sometimes the model also catches the nuances and shows where you got wrong.

5.1 vs 5.2: “Short answer: no meaningful change in conclusions vs 5.1. The newer model doesn’t flip the assessment. If anything, it tightens confidence.” 👀

5.2 is good. We are back to the "we are so back" phase. "It's so over" should come any day or week now. Competition is awesome.

Intuition isn’t vibes-based. It’s pattern recognition.

Multiple drop-ship e-commerce sites are pulling the: “We are saying goodbye 💔 because of rising tariffs. Buy now! Deep discount!” It works on me every single freaking time. 🫠

Other than Die Hard, I love watching Home Alone 2 during Christmas. Both movies reflect the “America Confidence” era. We were not perfect, but “we go it”. These days, it’s self-doubt: “Do we still got what it takes?”. We do, but the doubt is real.

Interesting observations in Japan: if you see a young family with 3 to 4 kids in a family, it’s not unusual at all. If people do get married these days: they tend to have multiple kids. The real problem is that not enough couples are actually getting married.

Shit post time: To advance Reddit, Inc. communities, they’ll need a “I disagree” action. Downvote is being used as a suppression mechanic (for a very long time), which isn’t what it was designed for.

Osaka always feels more like Bladerunner to me than Tokyo. Osaka doesn’t / can’t hide the heavy industry, shipping docks, and the chaotic side of the area and the culture. Tokyo is just much better at hiding the other stuff.

It’s actually really cool to see Electric Ford F105 on the road and charging at EA and Tesla charging stations. It’s sad to see they are going away. Economic factors aside, full-size pickup in BEV is entirely possible.

First Word Problem: Ask for decaf mocha at night. The barista probably didn’t care. ‘Stayed awake until 1:30 a.m. 🫩

OK, one thing that sucked with the tariff that no one really talked about: camera and photo equipment prices (from both Japan and Germany) have gone up anywhere from $500 to $1,000 USD. Sadness. 😭

As a Sci-fi fan, I feel there’s plenty of room of telling Leftist ideals and stories. The Expanse did it recent years and did it well. Starfleet Academy is just a nonstarter day one.

I’m slowly warming up to Claude. Gemini is still good. ‘Still preachy but accurate. Muscle memory still goes to ChatGPT, but the model is showing a lot of flaws and inaccuracy as I used the most.
