| 3388 | This is actually a fascinating project, |
| 3389 | and the above description from two days ago, |
| 3390 | was about a project I started to do exactly this, |
| 3391 | with Claude. |
| 3392 | It is interesting, |
| 3393 | its useful, |
| 3394 | its important. |
| 3395 | So why not do it? |
| 3396 | I fear a dead end. |
| 3397 | I was asking Claude to build this for me, |
| 3398 | and it was an endless stream of disappointments. |
| 3399 | Claude is stunningly stupid in some very serious ways. |
| 3400 | Plus, |
| 3401 | as a proprietary system, |
| 3402 | interfacing with it, |
| 3403 | the cost, |
| 3404 | the challenges of a context window that I have poor or no management over, |
| 3405 | these are problems. |
| 3406 | I could replace Claude by some open LLM I could run locally... |
| 3407 | use Claude for design, |
| 3408 | but integrate into the local system... |

| 3412 | I can resume the word–pair counting project. |
| 3413 | Now that I have built up enough infrastructure, |
| 3414 | it should be resumable. |

| 3452 | So the question becomes: |
| 3453 | what should I work on first? |
| 3454 | The answer is, |
| 3455 | perhaps, |
| 3456 | all of them, |
| 3457 | all at once, |
| 3458 | in parallel. |
| 3459 | I was gong to write much more here, |
| 3460 | explaining each, |
| 3461 | reviewing each, |
| 3462 | weighing the pros and cons of each, |
| 3463 | but then I interrupted myself to chit–chat on discord, |
| 3464 | and now I'm chit–chatted out and don't want to write any more, |
| 3465 | and instead just start doing, |
| 3466 | instead. |
| 3467 | So, |
| 3468 | fuck it. |
| 3469 | I'm done here. |
