In this context probably both

This is probably best since knowing about it is not actionable, but can give you tremendous stress for a while.
faeyanpiraat··on It's still ok to enjoy programming
Okay but notice that “Losing the ability to” as-is is not even in the ballpark of “comprehension and attention go down”, we are not mind readers..

Try doing some sports as well, I do weightlifting, but I do bouldering as well with friends, it is not only fun it also develops your strength in a kind of complementary way to lifting (also increases you stats on balance and other related stuff)
faeyanpiraat··on Suicide rates highest ever among middle-aged men
I would imagine it feels like a huge responsibility, and also immensely fulfilling.

I couldn't imagine being brave enough for it, props to you for doing this!

I've been through a 6 month long unemployment. Got let go from a company (along with the majority of the dev team) which picked up AI like a shiny object thinking it could do everything.

Then I got hired to a company which have been pushing AI 100% for like a year, not at the expense of headcount, but responsibly as the N+1th productivity increasing tool, like what it is.

It's a really nice environment where keeping and cultivating great talent is not just one of the primary marketing slogans on the hiring page, but it actually feels like it while on the job.

My talent is nowhere near yours, so don't lose hope, keep applying.

Neat terminal, I've been building the same thing in my free time but haven't reached a point where it is complete / stable enough for being my daily driver.

Have you (anyone) actually sticked to the way of working this enables, or is this just a gimmick?

faeyanpiraat··on Being ambitious and being a dad
I kinda agree with you but Could you please elaborate on “ having kids does all the good things in life at once” as I dont see how is that so straightforward. I’m actually currently really conflicted on the idea whether I want or dont want kids.
faeyanpiraat··on Incident with Github.com
You cant eat a quote
faeyanpiraat··on At-home test for infected ticks could improve Lyme Disease diagnosis
I'd argue it's perfectly fine to have some snark reacting to a comment spreading a potentially dangerous sentiment.

I have at least one serious regret about trusting someone on the internet saying something incorrect confidently.

faeyanpiraat··on France to ban unsolicited telemarketing calls
Yeah this is something which got on my radar as a potential way to get web development clients, like just call companies with kind of bad websites and see if they need new ones?

This gotta be an outdated way to get business, but regardless of whether this would work on a small scale (havent tried yet) would this be considered spam aswell?

faeyanpiraat··on Auto mode is now the default in Claude Code
In the short term wouldnt a “dont escape” prompt prevent this? Also if it started being widespread wouldnt Anthropic specifically train new models against doing it?

faeyanpiraat··on The relay market powering token resellers and fraud
Its so much stuff going through them, how would they monitor it all?
faeyanpiraat··on I burned all my tokens researching how to save tokens
Well you both seem like well educated people, so can we bring in some thinking here and determine whether it is 2.5% or 10%?

How could this be verified?

I don't think I'm good enough at math and ai research to find a reliable way.

You can renovate your home to match an altered image, but you cant change the colour of the actual sky so in a sense that is “more false” advertising. :)
