Oh wow, that’s crazy did you buy and return them all at once? I never tried the return process because they just worked so well for me, have a second non waterproof pair as well and was planning on getting another to be honest haha

The only other brand I’ve tried is Xero, I like the prio line for running, but I know they have a pretty wide range including boots. Barefoot + speciric features always feels like a niche, I’m still looking for a steel toe boot

I use Lems Boulder Summit as snow/rainboots, as well as for their intended purpose of hiking. Extremely good in my experience, they have top down photos of the sole as well as detailed information about all their lasts

Awesome story actually if you have a minute to read through. Sounds like it would be very technical but the details are easy to follow

How did his shirt get so red?

The progress of what exactly? How much money companies can waste with zero roi? How have your personal finances been since you have “kept up” with AI? Are you making a thousand times more money now? Ten thousand times more?

100% adoption (the thing we were both referring to until you randomly started talking about something else just now) is a lofty goal yes, one that has been repeated in LLM marketing for years now. Always a few months away.

To address what you randomly just started talking about: Again, we’re on year five of identical testimonials to what you just wrote. Leave us behind if it’s already “very good”. Constant talk of getting left behind but nobody ever actually leaves

Been hearing that for years now, how AI is only a few months away from a variety of lofty goals. Funny how that never seems to fully materialize

If you get to be looking like this guy at that age I think at some point you’d probably stop putting shirts on in the first place

They “behave” differently based on what you put into it. If you ever get the opportunity to snoop, try and see how other people use theirs. You might be surprised. Most of the meme’s sentiment comes from a cohort of corporate minded people who use the llm as a yes-man

For one real world example, the relativey recent Krafton/Unknown Worlds lawsuit. Krafton used ai to devise a legal strategy which failed spectacularly. Funny thing is the chat logs came up in court, so you can actually see that originally, the AI tried to course correct the ceo like how you are describing in your use of it, but he had it charge ahead anyway, at which point it behaved like the meme.

In my personal life I encounter people who use it for everything and claim to be 1,000x more productive, but mysteriously their metrics are worse than before and they haven’t actually materialized any tangible achievements. I think that’s the case for most people, hence the meme

Be listening to this the rest of my life. RIP Ryan, you made a big impact on a lot of people
