Unpopular opinion but using LLMs to stretch yourself w/either time or technicality as constraints requires getting really good at defining the question to others.
Learning to use words more accurately and effectively to get your desired goal matters now perhaps more than it ever has.

Used PlantUML for years but it's not snappy and can be a real PITA to get working in GitHub Codespaces with port forwarding and the Markdown extension whereas Mermaid just works.

Buddy Holly was a talented star born in Lubbock that reactionaries only acknowledged after tragedy.
In life, West Texas culture treated Mr. Holly like crap. A star from West Texas toured after being rejected by their own hometown and ended up shaping generations on their own.

Today, the U.S. faces one billion+ dollar climate/weather disaster on average every 2w. That's a massive increase from one every 4m in the 1980s.
This is 'global weirding' and people are taking notice!
The government told NOAA to stop tracking these events: but @climatecentral.org is on the job.

Surely there exists a toggle to flip on a fleet.
