    There used to be an entire subreddit that basically did this. There were hundreds of fake users each posting and commenting. No real users were allowed to post or comment. I loved it because they would sort of mirror what was currently on the front page but in much more ridiculous way.

    Edit: It was called subreddit simulator. And the creator said it used Markov chains. So no need to use bad prompted LLMs. Just do it the “old fashioned” chatbot way.










  • I put off a boring task at work for weeks in favor of a more interesting work project. I kept telling myself over and over that I should switch over and start the other project before it gets late. But every time I tried, I just couldn’t work on it. I literally couldn’t. It was so difficult I was almost falling asleep just staring at the code. I’d switch back.

    I finally finished it today. The day before it was due. Came in this morning, brain kicked into overdrive and I just finished it all. I don’t remember eating lunch. What should have been done in two weeks, was done in a little over two days. Why do I do this myself. I can’t help it.

    (The code looked really good though.)
