  • The one thing Krispy Kreme has going for them is if you can get them fresh and warm, they are pretty damn good, and they generally make them fresh all day. But at least in my area, what they did is open a handful of locations where you could get them freshly-made, let those build some hype for a year or two, then close them down and sell the pre-packaged garbage in grocery stores and gas stations.

    IMO they are still generally better than whatever other basic glazed donuts you can buy off the store shelf, but if there’s a local bakery that sells fresh donuts though, 10/10 they will be better than Krispy Kreme.




  • I try to make it work for me–I really do. But it’s just never worth the time & effort.

    Recently, I asked our company-hosted instance of Copilot to draft up an application note for a new product we are releasing to help get my documentation juices flowing. This product is well documented on our internal sharepoint/teams/outlook/onedrive servers that Copilot scrapes, as well as some public facing press releases and marketing content, so I asked Copilot to draft up an app note for this product specifically by name.

    Its first draft had tons and tons of info that was just straight-up wrong or super vague. So I refined the prompt asking it to cite sources for each paragraph. Lo and behold, there were 9 citations, and 8 of them were general technology references or competitor products.

    Maybe it’s a skill issue, but I can’t get over the fact that this shit is not just so factually wrong, but so confidently wrong.
