Mostly an advert for JIVX language learning tools. The entire site seems to be AI generated and there is no real trace of a human involved in the writing or curation.

It can become really addictive. That loop of having an idea and watching it come to life. A friend and I jokingly refer to it as cyberpsychosis. Because when you code by hand, eventually your brain gets tired and you have to stop. But Claude never gets tired, so you can sort of push yourself past what’s reasonable and spend a wild number of hours prompting for new changes. Instead of a healthy dopamine cycle, it feels more like the inexhaustible random reward cycle of gambling.

EDIT: This is in reference to a portion of OP’s comment that was removed. :)

^ Yeah I mentioned the OP had created a ton of different AI projects (based on history) but I deleted it because I have no proof OP is the author. It does seem likely though!

That is an interesting statistic, but would be even more interesting if it were explained.

Is this solely explained by air quality getting better? Is the climate getting dryer around the area, hence less water vapor in the air?
