You could text Paul. He is but a Google search away to see the shtick.

You could send an interview request to their technical staff with an assignment that injects the fix into their production environment.

I suspect that these problems exist everywhere at this moment in all major systems.

Perhaps a bot to attempt to make contact and alert the staff.

Consent is implied when on the Internet, by design.

I wondered about this myself as the explanations and documents I have been maintaining are becoming increasingly 'slop', but a different kind of slop.

In the past I could get an explanation, where I was able to track the line of thought. Now when I read through the explanation it is like someone has taken two or three explanations and merged them into each other, like there is a combining of iterations without clarity.

example:

The tree is blue.

The tall tree has the color of blue.

the tree, while tall, is blue.

That finally gets squished into: the blue tall tree has height and is evident of blue.

Is this double speak or injected double effort of words?

Yes. Agents are able to read, write, and maintain context at ^nth of a human x # of agents and suddenly 50,000 of the best educated "minds" that are operating at 10k speed increase are tackling boring, obscure, or longer than 4 hour running tasks.

Scale baby!

IQ level of clients may have something to do with it.

Human wealth? Humans, some, are worth more than others, per birth rates and varying investments by institutions.

Isn't this the sum of dating apps?

The subject was related to the OP. The reference to the cost of the alternative was a currency conversion from tokens to dad joke.

No. Postman sells nothing of value.

At this point I do not see why the entirety of their software could not be a one shot prompt for the price of deer nuts.

Low end - absolutely.

High end? Not yet. Corporate contracts are getting human only oversight with us. We have tried to compare but found that the signal vs noise generated doesn't compete with our expensive legal department.

Nobody wants to admit that while partial to one company or another, brand and all that, I highly doubt that within 1-2 years we can tell the difference between model output for 90% of our tasks.

Except for the 'vibe' of some of the models with their writing or testing style I am not certain I could tell you which model is which unless asked.

Switching from model to model at the moment has been seamless without extensive 1 to 1 bench-marking but most of my tasks are never 1 to 1.

From what I am seeing about 10% of our AI spend has any ROI. You can count 90% loss of $XX but the ROI we get from that 10% is 200%-10000% of our spend.

Getting and retaining customers is 99% of profit which is why sales, marketing, advertising, and creativity is always in high demand. After that, quality.

Define these terms because it is trivial to mitigate.

LLM can define backup job, write scripts and configs.

AI connects to blank system, builds out config and then creates scripts to run rsync.

The way some people fear AI is not realizing that it is doing the operations.

Bell curve. Top 10% of smart are trying to do the work. The bottom 10% are avoiding the work, finding a way to kill their boredom through disruptions. That middle 80% cannot stay or complete tasks because of the disruptions.

Segregation by IQ, GPA, or test scores would help those who are capable of achieving what is possible.

Cha...ya know neuron, Dave is out and Jenny is on maternity leave - let's reschedule for 2 week okay?

No good. I am out that week. How about the 3rd week of November?

That's no good. Second week of December should work for all of us.

--near actual conversation with (State) government coordination team to have a 20 minute discussion.

Ignoring the stabbings and shootings, the children are not disciplined, properly supported, or permitted to excel. The speed of education moves at the slowest students and interrupted by the most disruptive.

The teachers cannot fail a student so the illiterates move up with the educated, where the gap becomes evident, the disruptions turns to abuse and attacks because the feral children cannot maintain civility.

This is now trivial with agentic tooling. I recently used a separate laptop and VM over a weekend with an agent to complete a full migration. Cost is hours and a dollar in tokens.

In the current age of AI, open source means exploits can discovered directly through the code. The flip side is the patches can also be managed.

We are in that period between when software was good enough and when software is certified as secure by the writers.

The days of importing frameworks and libraries written by strangers is over. I would say the entire industry is not prepared at this moment for the unpatchable event where the only solution is to power off or disconnect.

With AI and agents there is no longer obscurity.

I would expect a complete liquidation, resignation, and forfeiture of all assets to the investors if I was working as a founder or investor.

I read a lot of old material from 1-1900AD where I can pick upon the author's 'voice'. There are subtle clues, like if they had a regional accent, where they use a specific word or type of cadence.

AI does the same with responses where the cadence is some type of formula that becomes identifiable.

Each of the big models has their own but an example of the cadence is

A) Agreement or Acknowledgement with the User

B) Specific detail gets a paragraph of detail related to the previous response

C) Overview of the conversation's current state

D) Prompting or Direction for this conversation to go

E) Landing on a beat. Wrap up the vibe. Recap with a zinger.

I cannot unsee it and a few of the models are annoying. I have attempted to build out the Agents and context to avoid the 'last beat one liner' without success because after 2-3 more turns, I get "That challenge was accepted and you stepped up. You're the winner this round".

Have you checked with the newsgroups and gopher web on why this became a thing?

Obviously tailscale has some great devs, security is complex.

There is some weaselly language.

In some circumstances default config? with password? this is a condition leading to the next

someone already authorized to connect over Tailscale SSH they have access, but it may be limited or restricted, although scope could be beyond the intended

may be able to perform actions beyond the permissions If there is a full moon and your brother in law's second cousin is wearing a hat, he may be able to use your upstair's thermostat provided you have a second story.

Better planning, specs, and defined agent tasks with skills and logical and technical separation.

If there was a well known company, TrustedExploitAndPatch Inc, that had faces and contact info and dropped an 'oh by the way.txt' file with the details, screen recording, etc. after patching showing they didn't exfil all the coins - would people be happy?

Even if someone finds your wallet and returns it, full of its original cash, they still would have had time to snag your credit card numbers, figure out your address, what coupons you have.

The alternative is a guy in a suit walking up and saying "I saw your wallet in the bushes on 144th and 132nd."

The game at the moment is capture as much content as possible.

I have gone deep in dealing with naming and names.

Versions are good for backend but when communicating I want 2 or 3 levels of detail.

Class_Generation_Modifier

Astra_8_Fast

That's it.

This means: Class - Tells me what it can do, how well. Generation X end of life is ~18 months. Modifier: Variation of options.

And the modifier can be dropped if you add more classes.

Fog, clouds, steam, ice.

At certain temperatures water is indeed not wet.
