I've tried to replicate the real world, so I give my agents backstories, triabl loyalties, and deep-seated character flaws. my agents try to dominate and manipulate each other. they make sure to take credit for every line code. I have manager agents that promote based on shared hobbies. so far it's going well.

all is fair in love and clickbait

you've always been a Claude Code guy? this has existed less than a year.

I was born clutching a Claude Code shell, you peasant.

The first sentence out of my mouth was a system prompt


To be fair that still feels like an eternity somehow.

Perhaps AI time is the inverse of Valve time.


be rich, hire an ai guy, let him deal with it

Won't everyone essentially be a shareholder indirectly? so yeah, someone should think about it.

what is the source data? the author says they've seen "far more non-technical people than I'd expect using Claude Code in terminal" so like, 3 people? who are these people?

There are many different populations in the USA. How useful is the overall life expectancy average? What decision can I make with this information?

It's bad news for social security and Medicare.

The men vs women numbers otherwise are pretty useless for the reason you gave


The significance is obvious: People in the US are getting healthier, by a significant metric. That doesn't matter? The US is a relativley well-defined group, sharing many inputs and consuming many of the same resources, including the same national health care resources for research, care, regulation, etc.

> There are many different populations in the USA.

Are you saying only your 'population' matters to you?

What do you mean by it exactly? There are lots of populations everywhere, and every population can be broken down into more populations. Any aggregate number won't describe you as an individual, even if it's a number for your own family.

Is this just a repeat of the old racial trope here?: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=46843222


no, i think you're imagining a lot of things. i'm just saying it is very coarse metric by which to understand anything at all. But, I'm not in any way educated in this metric so i'm open to anyone telling me how it is useful, like I asked initially.

complete nonsense, like saying cars have failed to replace a single horse application or feature.

you are right but this would take actual science and desire to make good things.
