It hurt itself in its confusion!

Skill issue (sad gen Z noises)

My boss’s boss is eerily kinda like that. She gives me the creeps because she’s also trained as a nurse and she could probably kill if she wanted to and get away with it.

everything Trump builds looks gaudy and cheap

Precisely! This is nothing but insult to injury.

I don’t rely on the LLM to give me the answer.

So why are you assuming that I do, again? Aren’t I the one telling you that I do manual searches precisely because the search function is so hit or miss?

it’s not good for creative works.

What creative work? This is basic communication that we carefully outline first and then feed it to the LLM to spit out the same thing in formal language. Lol

How can I possibly be doing it wrong when the page it’s citing mentions nothing of what it’s taking about, or when it tells me to do something that we as a company do not do?

I’ve been doing this shit for 20 years now.

Welcome to the club.

it’s an extremely useful tool

Sure, for writing letters but not for searching which is what I’m taking about.

It’s not harder, though, it’s actually quite instant if you know what you’re doing. A lot of documentation is literally one single web page, and the majority that is not can be navigated with the regular search and ctrl+F just fine.

There’s no substitute to taking 40 minutes to get acquainted with the documentation to know what you need rather than trial & error your way through a problem blindly.

you could get an LLM to return you the correct page in some documentation

It’s unreliable and prone to errors, and I say that after using LLM-based searches for months at work. Too many times it confuses areas, makes stuff up, or cites some irrelevant page just to give any answer at all.

You’d just lick it clean at that point, like cats do!

You may think you’re being clever, but that is hardly a reasonable comparison while also ignoring the glaring corporate irresponsibility underlying both.

Better question is, when did you lose basic keyword-based searching skills? I know you may want your answers on a platter but realize that there’s value in manual searches. Searching for something with LLMs on the page that you’re on is questionable on so many levels.

Japanese (稀): rare/seldom

Orto: Ass (not everywhere, but where I lived, it had that meaning) / vegetable garden

Ohh, a vegetable garden in Spanish is “huerto”. Interesting that they’re so close yet so far.

Not in my experience, but then again, I left a couple years ago so maybe they changed it when I wasn’t there.

Meh, go have fun.

I also have one! And it doesn’t work.

in your fantasy world where cops don’t exist, who intervenes when someone inevitably commits a crime?

Who intervenes when cops are around, though? I’ve been laughed at in my face and told they couldn’t do anything despite us having proof in the form of a brick through our window. Not even the restraining order was honored.

Or how about the time I got beat up and all they did was allegedly take some notes and tell me they couldn’t do anything because it was private property despite my fresh bruises?

Or them cat-calling a 15 year-old that they’re supposed to be protecting?

Kind of useless if you ask me, and I haven’t even gotten to the malicious stuff like locking up my brother in law for a year and pressuring for ransom and sacking his family’s home.

It’s kind of insane how much we believe in their image rather than rely on their actions to even dare be so condescending.

Japan was doing that a couple of years ago.
