I have something that usually builds, tests, and deploys under five minutes. It has been over two hours and forty eight minutes and it is still going on today... ๐ซฃ
There's a really good one run by someone in the Netherlands. He forked the software and made a ton of improvements. I was on there six years ago. I wish I could remember the name.
After months of hardly any rain, Iโm really enjoying a cozy day stuck indoors just listening to the downpour; getting on with doing some house cleaning. Is it too premature to declare this autumnโ
You've hit the nail on the head. But here's the mindblowing partโwriting isn't just about text on a page.
It's not about listing a bunch of facts to memorize.
Writing is about human connection.
And here's where it gets even more fascinating...
[parody, not AI]
Some writing yes, If you want to write a post saying why your company has a position yes; if you are documenting an API, does the average swagger page have a human connection factor?
If you are in X/FB, is any of your followers a "human connection"?
Then, in some spaces, say big corp communications, the terse, direct communication is desired, for example the quarter earning communication?
What about software?, what part of your browser gives you the "human connection"?
If writing (incl X/FB posts) is meant to convey "some human being did/saw/thought this and found it worth writing about", then AI undermines human connection and will annoy people. API docs, earnings reports, &c never conveyed that to begin with, so nobody will care about AI use.
I think slop is not taking the time to refine and polish and simply publishing something as it was handed to you by the #AInotesfollow. You use AI but the decisions should be yours. Otherwise it's #slopnotesfollow.
There are two kinds of suffering. One which you run from, and it follows you everywhere. And there is suffering you face directly, and in doing so become free.

So damn insightful.
For the first time in a couple of year, I wove a rattan basket today, and the best part is it only took two hours when I was expecting it to take all day #basketrynotesfollow
