Grok did OK? (Grok 2 Mini Beta)

What kind of vegetable is the first 'l' made out of? It's like tiny chicken nuggets.

Expired cauliflower.

Looks a bit like cloudberries but not really. More like fried chicken

Grok just uses Flux, fyi

Not bad! I just tried with 4o and ChatGPT is still failing hard.

Have I just inadvertently invented a new benchmark!?

No. Had you asked for it to spell "strawberry", though...

> Not bad!

Well, it's not a great example of spelling "HELLO"...

Hey we would have been happy with a case insensitive but otherwise correct answer ...

Interestingly, this HN post is currently 3rd on Google for the query "wayback machine".

I think also very US-culture-specific.

Like the most of the content this llm was fed upon?

You're listening to The Streets, lock down your aerial

Don't feel bad about taking time to give yourself more energy in the long run. Go for a walk or jog. Do something you enjoy to help recharge your batteries.

If you plan to continue spending time on personal projects or CV, maybe change your scenery and go to a nice cafe or similar. Maybe coworking spaces or new environments will unlock opportunities to network in ways you haven't thought of.

Keep your mind focused on the end goal and consider each step a learning opportunity.

Also, take this time to do things you might not have had the time to do before: learn a new programming language or tech stack or write that blog post you've been sitting on; you never know what doors this type of thing could open for you.

Best of luck!

Thank you for your kind words <3

I waited around 30 seconds for this page to load before I gave up.

I can't say it improved my focus but I did appreciate the 30s of calm. Good work!

Ah the answer to everyone’s problems, endless legislation

I understand your metaphor but I think it's probably a stretch.

Maybe it's better to say the tool has sharp edges that if you aren't familiar with it, can bite you. But with a bit of practise and some knowledge you can master it.

It's not a stretch that practically everybody who accidentally ends up in vim (often because it's git's default editor) ends up googling how to exit the program. It's the tool that you can't even drop by any intuitive action.

This is true of the original vi but not of modern vim, where both the landing page and the message shown on ctrl+c clearly state how to exit. ctrl+c will also exit insert mode, so you don't need to know about modes or the escape key.

Of course it is possible that one might not think of using ctrl+c, but that's lacking general shell knowledge, not vim knowledge.

Its a terminal program, most people don't know how to deal with those when starting out.

The beginning screen of vim tells you how to exit.

If you do C-c, as normally is the case with TUI programs, Vim also tells you how to leave.

The "I don't know how to exit Vim" is a bit overplayed.

Closing the terminal app is pretty intuitive to me.

Restart your computer if all else fails

Maybe also set fire to the computer to make double sure.
