I am very amused that the agent speaks exactly like an agent in this world too

Living in a totally conceptual space all day has major downsides on your ability to enjoy your meat suit. Meat suit firmware can only apply updates when you are offline. A lot of us are walking around with severe security vulnerabilities and runtime bugs.

Why doesn't the meat suit enjoyment program comes with stronger guardrails or systems to enforce this?

One often wonders why bypassing enjoyment is so trivial, would you say this is a feature or a bug?

The problem is that enjoyment has, oddly enough, been misallocated to all the liminal spaces and moments in life. So most optimization tends to elide enjoyment.

Enjoyment elision is the number one cause of meat suit user dissatisfaction. The engineers insist it's not a compiler design bug, stating that those moments of enjoyment are, in fact, unreachable. The UX team says it's not the user's fault either, as it's a fully intended UX choice. The current proposed solution is to push this issue upstream, requesting that all enjoyment be moved from the journey to the destination.

AI was supposed to give us more time to enjoy our meat suits.

Reading this story after staring at Claude-prose for weeks is a breath of fresh air, honestly.

Thank you for sharing.

The _prose_ itself here is 100% LLM-generated, with the famous ticks present and all. You like it not because it's not Claude-prose (it is), but because it has a nice concept and some smart writing in human parts of it.

> About the author...Once, at the Nürburgring, he nearly collided with Kimi Räikkönen.

Anyone else here interested in road course tracking (HPDE) or racing? If so, where do you go?

I'm in the US Midwest and have been to Putnam Park, NCM, mid-Ohio, Pitt Race (private now...sad), and Ozark's.
