man this post got zero up votes. And we are the only two here. I was so inpsired by the look and feel of https://alexwlchan.net/2025/copying-sqlite-databases/ which is on the homepage right now I thought, if I just make a story look that good, it will also get a lot of votes...

claude code, all cli, but it's because I'm old school vim only guy

are you keeping the name? bold choice

I remember in 2011 working for a startup that made sure to pay the intern minimum wage to avoid any lawsuits. It's tricky to make sure they are getting "school credit" for the work. Without that you can get sued for sure.

couldn't I just like pinky-swear to my friend and that should be enough?

the quality of the writing is just so great, reminds me of Miranda July.

so i watched the video and see fetch to get the current time in the UK. Can you give some other use case examples?

i feel like new accounts should start with 1 credit not 0

lol. i like my article from 2021 about being stuck. You are never actually stuck: https://andrewarrow.substack.com/p/installing-go-from-source...

Well the victim needs to:

1. Download someone else's rule file. It might look ok, be in someone's well respected repo.

2. Not view the rule file with hex editor and notice the weird unicode chars that are giving bad instructions but don't appear when you view the file normally.

If you've seen Robocop this is like his secret primate directive.

um, this is just mockup?

oh this video is for you:

"How To Know If You Should Work Harder"

He talks about exactly this. Has a great line something like "you just want to be able to say I gave it my all and mean it."

If you stop now do you mean it?

I'm a little order, 49 and I recently "gave up" and took a W2 job. But I was definitely done. Could not go on with my make it big ideas one day longer.

I asked Claude if this was true, and Claude confirmed.

screen shots? or video? i have to clone the repo and run it to see?

nice, how about being able to add "approved faces" to the dictionary. Kinda like with google doc spell check I can tell it a mis-spelled word is actually ok. So if my friend Bob is on the list and he's detected that doesn't count.

I guess the point I'm making is why are you not just asking AI these questions?

------------ This probabilistic approach allows the system to:

Escape local energy minima (preventing the system from getting stuck in unrealistic configurations)

Properly sample the thermodynamic equilibrium states according to their Boltzmann weights

Model thermal fluctuations realistically

The beauty of the RFIM specifically is its balance between:

Ordered tendencies (through the J parameter controlling spin-spin interactions)

Disorder and frustration (through the random fields)

Thermal noise (through the temperature parameter)

This combination creates the complex behaviors you're looking for in your simulation - like phase transitions, hysteresis, and avalanche effects. The random fields introduce "frustration" into the system, where different forces compete and create rich, emergent behaviors. --------

that's all from ai

sure but all I did was use these prompts:

"I'm working on a small system simulation project that explores how instability can emerge from the interaction of various variables over time. Recently, I’ve been trying to incorporate the RFIM (Random Field Ising Model) into the logic—but I’ve hit a wall. It’s not the math or the concept itself, but rather the total lack of Korean-language resources or beginner-friendly guides that’s been challenging. any well-documented codebases I could learn from or could point me toward approachable explanations or tutorials"

"put this into simpler english: You should start with a Monte Carlo implementation using the Metropolis algorithm. You now create a lattice with random initial spins... make random fields for each site... randomly selecting sites. Then calculating energy changes for potential spin flips. Accepting/rejecting changes based on energy differences and temperature"

You should start with a Monte Carlo implementation using the Metropolis algorithm.

1. Create a grid with random up/down spins

2. Add random magnetic fields at each point

3. Pick points randomly on the grid

4. Calculate energy changes if you were to flip a spin

5. Decide whether to accept the flip based on temperature and energy differences

can you compare this to https://github.com/eyaltoledano/claude-task-master ?

nice where does the name come from?

This was fantastic find. I've added:

container_cpu_usage_seconds_total: total CPU time used

container_cpu_cfs_throttled_periods_total: how often a container gets throttled

To our Datadog Charts. And I'm adding

import _ "go.uber.org/automaxprocs"

right now.

'“Under the First Amendment, if the Government opens its doors to some journalists — be it to the Oval Office, the East Room, or elsewher — it cannot then shut those doors to other journalists because of their viewpoints,” McFadden wrote.'

So, where is the limit then? Surely if a group of journalists had some very extreme viewpoints on race or religions that would be more of an issue for McFadden?

"based" is a slang term that originated from internet culture, particularly associated with certain online communities. It generally means something that is authentic, unfiltered, or grounded in truth, often with a connotation of being bold or unapologetic. The term was popularized by rapper Lil B, who used "based" to describe a mindset of staying true to oneself, regardless of societal norms or criticism.

I had to look it up.

Anyone's welcome to run their own on another domain. Would be so cool to see someone do this. shellmates.com is for sale $5k!

I'll keep running on the subdomain of https://shellmates.andrewarrow.dev/ because I don't want to spend any more money on another domain lol.
