Legit what one of our clients problem was. Normal web traffic wasn’t an issue and the logs were just a few megs. Yeah there was a problem where they were not rotating but once meta started crawling them 24/7 ignoring the robots.txt it kept filling their vps up. An annoying problem to fix once a server is completely full and you can’t even ssh in.

That’s the problem, they’re still doing the work and delivering tasks but just not following the guidelines. That’s a discussion we haven’t really had internally yet since it’s all been moving so fast.

Sadly already happens. We have some rules for our devs that use AI and despite requiring a human to put a screenshot into the pr and hand write the pr they still have an ai do it all for them and will argue about how it’s too time consuming to write a pull request.

I’d love to try this project out but I really don’t think it’ll stop anything, and they’d probably just ask their agent to remove the hook anyways like they do with our husky hook.

Used to be true but these days there’s enough data on real numbers it doesn’t matter. I get 8 calls a day now across two lines. Every day. Exact same time exact same ai voicemail.

It’s also a “you can’t scrape us but we can scrape you” mentality these companies are getting into.

It really sucks for small businesses. Their websites get absolutely hammered and they can’t afford or don’t know how to stop it. Cloudflare ends up winning as they’re the easiest solution.

It’s amazing how much developers want to automate themselves out of a career.

You’re thinking of a job that never existed. No one was only ever hired to open doors. Doormen have always had secondary duties that myself and others have explained.

And a lot of places, like hotels, they handle things such as luggage... definitely not just standing there all day just for a door, that's ridiculous.

I’ve been getting spammed with eBay notices to update my (used) items with fcc ids. They also don’t say which items needs it.

I watched one today in SF turn down a road, stop, back into an active intersection and continued to back up into the wrong lane, then back into a lane with a car in the lane before it stopped and blocked both lanes.

They should release either the server component or documentation for how it works and a way to unlock any protections around it. I’ve seen people argue before that releasing the whole backend stack would be an issue and I agree, but documentation shouldn’t be an issue.

And even then you should be running in a container at least.

That’s been a thing for years. No one is actually running the exes, or at least they shouldn’t be. Its such a simple thing to prevent too…

I’ve had mine going for what feels like ten years now no issues. Even longer if you could some of the earlier managers out there. The arrs are some of the most solid apps I’ve run. Especially once I switched them to use Postgres.

I tried it once and it barely worked at all. Plex would just show everything as unavailable. Really awful experience even when it did work.

No but they’re covering themselves as they’re also making fake accounts to bypass login walls. Probably to avoid a similar nitter issue.

No they haven't? It can hop at best, in a demo unit, designed specifically for that demo.

Also wouldn't be that crazy for them to put together a demo that'll never actually be a production vehicle. Dunno why anyone thinks this will ever ship like this. One thing to market a car, another to just show off features that just wont be real.

I was gonna say, I’d be shocked if it already wasn’t from the home assistant community.

I’m sorry you didn’t get what I was saying. Maybe one day you’ll realize what that mentality is.

As an introvert I’d say my social activity has stayed about the same the last 30+ years. Being out with people just drains me.

Same in Oxnard, they put a school zone on a divided ave. No one slows down. And there's a bus stop on either side so if everyone obeyed the "when children present" it would be a huge bottleneck. Even cops fly through it.

Doesn't that just cause speeds to creep up as people think it's okay to go a little over the limit?

I found an independent dentist that's actually on one of the dental boards and he's really well educated and aware of new treatments and doesn't just treat to treat, also not even that expensive. But those dentists are rare, and it's really hard (and expensive) to shop around. If anyone is in Ventura County CA and looking for a good one I can provide a rec.

That’s not how it looks in mine at all.

That many commits in a day I wouldn’t call it engineering. That’s basically brute forcing.

Have you seen the new Nova theme? It’s horrible, especially with vertical tabs.

I’ve had to block similar on clients sites. Their search pages would start to get hammered with obvious agentic search spam. Searching for thing not even related to the site in all combinations of the queries. Some of the user queries contained potentially PII.

The only time plex has been slow is right after one of their updates before they fix the bugs they always introduce. Faster hardware won’t fix that. Also apps need better preloading when scrolling. But again faster hardware isn’t the solution to sloppy devs.

Also I play back full 4k BR disk rips.

The part that’s insane to me is his company ripped off Disney IP then Disney hires him saying how much he loves and respects Disney.
