TIL Pop-Tarts are now lower quality than the old generic knock offs

Reply in thread

Ever since Pop Tarts started going down the shitter I've been saying they'd make a fortune if they did their own version of the Double Stuf Oreo aka just sell Pop Tarts with an actual amount of filling with measurable thickness rather than a thin sheen. Now by the time they've gotten around to it, they're still a bastardized shrinkflation shadow of their former selves, and the flavors they chose for them look utterly unappealing on the box to boot.

I Went All-In on AI. The MIT Study Is Right.

Not immediate failure—that’s the trap. Initial metrics look great. You ship faster. You feel productive.

And all they'll hear is "not failure, metrics great, ship faster, productive" and go against your advice because who cares about three months later, that's next quarter, line must go up now. I also found this bit funny:

I forced myself to use Claude Code exclusively to build a product. Three months. Not a single line of code written by me... I was proud of what I’d created.

Well you didn't create it, you said so yourself, not sure why you'd be proud, it's almost like the conclusion should've been blindingly obvious right there.

Don't forget the inevitable "3 months ago we were made aware of a breach of the BONTO! servers. What information was taken? Bet you'd like to know wouldn't you. What have we done about this situation? Fuck you, that's what."
