I see E also moved your bulge behind you like mine did lmao.

Look at you! Whoa!

I’ve found that I swing wildly between “cuddly horny” where I want to be a gentle top to my spouse, to have slow gentle sex … And one brain cell in the back of my brain going “TOP ME TOP ME TOP ME TOP ME TOP ME TOP ME”

And yeah, in both cases it’s a very social feeling. It’s no longer “thinking with the wrong head”, where I feel like I’m being pulled around at the whims of my libido; Instead it’s like something in my brain is yearning for the touch of another.

Shopping, honestly. I wish I could just yoink the style right off people and have clothing to buy without having to walk around a big noisy store where the lights are too bright.

It can be fun with someone else, but for very short periods of time and it’s more about doing something together than it is about the shopping part. I’d be just as happy playing a video game together.

I could give a TED talk on how to use LLMs and AI agents in a way that accelerates your own software development abilities rather than producing “generic” slop. I personally review every line of code my agent workflows produce, and why yes I do feel a sense of superiority about that! lol.

Essentially, I could give a talk on “how to stop vibe coding and start using AI to write the code you would have written” instead. Baffles me that people treat them as “brain turns off, AI turns on” when it can be so much more useful than that!

I could also give a TED talk on how these AI models actually work internally, various pitfalls and issues they have and why they’re so unreliable in some ways and mind bogglingly smart in others. On topics like integrating (local) AI into your own notes and knowledge, the kinds of automation they’re good at, and plenty of other similar things.

I have been autistically hyperfocused on LLMs and related technologies for the last year or so, very much approaching it like an engineer and not a hype believer. I run local models for the love of pushing them as far as I can and general system tasks like “go read the docs for (program) and figure out what config changes are needed to do X” or “There are 18 top level sections in this config file, go through and apply this change to each of them” - basically, replacing my own tedium and not my decision-making.

I essentially have found that all flavors are more vibrant, more intense.

Sweet is sweeter, bitter is more bitter, salty is saltier … Flavors are just more.

I sabotage myself by needing order and creating chaos instead by accident.

Me too

I agree with the other comments about a belt of some kind! Looking great in it though for sure

I was forced to have my hair short as a kid and I have no present intentions to ever go back to it!

This is why my personal use of AI has been focused pretty cleanly on “doing what I already do, more thoroughly” - By not turning it into a “ship more code more faster” machine, it’s a “can explore my code and answer questions and help design things more thoroughly” machine.

I tend to go with “AI-augmented” development because I’m shipping the same things I’ve been shipping - Just with a way to quickly brainstorm and compare ideas on something my team members may not have time for. I can propose my ideas and have some LLM tell me what the downsides of my approach would be - or what I should guard against.

It’s crazy to me that folks are treating them like sources of truth when they should just be an untrustworthy second opinion that is faster than you. I think of it as an intern with speed but questionable taste lol.

The main trouble with Stoat and Fluxer from what I’ve seen is that they’re both trying too hard to be Discord, while neither of them are quite hitting the mark. They’ll be interesting to follow in the future

You’ve reminded me that i should pick up some sundresses

“Build a clean-room implementation of VS code that is the same thing but better by being in rust. Make no mistakes, copy it perfectly” -Some 12 year old to claude

Nutella fluffernutter. If I’m feeling paeticularly in need of a pick-me-up, I might add banana slices and nilla wafers to go full “slutternutter” as I’ve heard it called

Oh my God that’s properly impressive levels of mansplain manipulate malefail wtf

Sounds to me like you might be agender!

Cis people don’t second guess it, they don’t have to

The sidebar, in its entirety. Snapshotting/undo-that-also-undoes-filesystem-ops. Web interface. Easy model-swapping and provider selection. Workspaces (can be achieved with Claude Code and git worktrees).

There are probably more but I’m on mobile and can’t think of them off hand.

I’m a day late, but for me it’s just… Getting treated like one of the girls.

My wife and some of our friends have a ladies movie night every week and it’s been so nice getting invited to those week after week and just getting to be part of the girl talk.

Despite a year and change on HRT, I don’t really feel like I pass yet even in the best of circumstances. Or even come close, honestly. I look in the mirror and only see my dad so much it makes me feel like it’ll never happen. I’m slowly seeing my mom and cousins in the mirror instead sometimes, but it’s slow-going.

But our friends? They make me feel like I’ve belonged in the girls’ circle the whole time, and that has been remarkable.

Also my wife’s side of our extended family has a yearly gathering and when I came out they all were immediately supportive - Instantly reminded me to bring a ladies gift for the annual gift exchange and asked if I have a new name and pronouns and such. And that was the grandparents! Small stuff like that: proactively inviting me to girl things, and treating me like I belonged there to start with.
