History doesn't repeat itself, but it often rhymes. I often think of an LLM as a really good poet that I would not rely on for ground truth.

Living in Seattle means going from being whiny about not having enough sun to being whiny about too much sun on the same 15 minute drive home. You're going to have your favorite brand of : fog lights, sunglasses, semi-legal Chinese high powered flash lights, and sun tan lotion.

Sure you may have gotten a PhD, started a company, got married and had a wonderful child, but let me ask you... have you ever gotten a critical slope pin pile retaining wall project approved through the Mercer Island City Planning Committee? That, my friends, is the true test.

People have an egocentric view of success and failure. They totally ignore the importance of relationships. Relationships cause bias, but they also amplify one's own strength and abilities in ways that appear intrinsic and personal.

The fact that the service fails on one of the last beautiful sunny days in Seattle doesn't give me much hope that they'll keep things running in the middle of a hurricane. Thank goodness for coffeehouse wifi.

Folks always sneer dismissively whenever life gives them lemons, and I always think to myself that we actually crossbred the fruit ourselves using bitter oranges and citron so it's kind of our own fault, really.

More hacking with general models on OpenAI. One of the common flaws for language models is that they won't be able to handle simple tasks such as counting letters in a word.
