time to boot up some Lode Runner.

google searches have been terrible for a long time, which is why i have to kind of index all the links and blog posts of use from hackernews....

what about coder (and coder workspaces)? https://github.com/coder/coder

This same tale could likely be applied to a lot of VC Funded SaaS....

my thoughts exactly.

I like apples.

You must be thinking of a different Oracle [1]. This Oracle is all in on AI.

It doesn't irk me. But it's really funny how much the industry has changed, and I kind of think the 2008 financial crisis as that point in time.

It's also funny to me to think that computer science got to be a trendy degree, vs the small programs back when I went to university, even at a top comp-sci school.

I have a theory that a lot of people who would have normally gone to Wall Street for their lucrative jobs, couldn't, because of the crash, and Sillicon Vally was about to start booming in big ways....

That's pretty neat. Was fun seeing Seattle rendered this way

Our skills and agents use deterministic tools for things like: linting, ayy1, etc....

We have the exact same thing, we actually install a "plugin" engineering/org wide, and one of the skills in there, is a /skill-mananger skill that can browse other skills in another repo, install, uninstall, and create new ones with all our specific requirments. Semantic versioning allows us to have a hook to auto apply updates, too.

Seems to be helping people share things around the org.

This is pretty much what I've been saying for 20 years, but with content in general. People's time is fixed: 168 hours per week to: work, sleep, eat, excercise, commute, and then....

- read

- watch content: a movie at a theater, youtube, short-form socials, streaming services, etc..

- read a book

- scroll on the phone (won't list all the apps out)

- play a video game

- play a board game

- listen to music

etc.

So much content, fixed amount of time.

Funny, Nix is next on my list.

I'm setting up my new blog right now. I'm thinkin of having a toggle to "hide" ai generated content from my main list of writing, and labeling (and a disclaimer at the toop of each ai-generated post a message).

Example home page: https://taude.xyz/ Example AI Slop post: https://taude.xyz/posts/the-tool-stack-behind-this-blog/

Not trying to self-promote, but honsetly trying to leverage AI when appropriate, and to also not take away from my hand-written articles that are typically my thoughts and opinions....

- I get OS level notifications when the agent is ready.

- I don't need to use TMUX's wonky keyboard shortcuts

- I moved off of TMUX anyway, when ssh-ing into remote servers became 'not a thing'

- automatic coding session management, like auto resume, layout manamgement, etc. out of the box, without setting up TMUX, which could be a wormhole for some, by the time you fix mouse scrolling, cut/paste, etc...

I'm currently using CMUX, and been pretty happy with it it at this time, but loving the evolution of all these tools

they're refering to this: https://futurism.com/artificial-intelligence/ai-companies-de...

just like ai will create amazing tests suits for the broken code it writes, if one isn't carefully watching...

EDIT: of course it probably helps to have an up front tdd test suite, but often isn't the case.

Funny enough. I never smoked, but I often went and hung out in smoking sections outside our work office. I really enjoyed how open smokers were to just random conversations, and the quick 10 minutes of not looking at the screen were typically energizing. Almost like a natural pomodoro work schedule that forced up out of our desks, and then out of our offices.

When i was in college, we wrote a lot of C code in those blue notebooks. And this is a long time ago in a galaxy far, far away, which is probably why I don't totally didn't hate whiteboard coding tests. And when I'm trying to work with a new programming language or tool, I'm usually writing things out by hand (helps with the memory, like the article referenced).

i've actually had marketed to me on the socials a course on "transcribing" professional writers demonstrating various angles of the craft. I'm sure the course was vibed or something. Pretty easy to identify authors you like, and whose dialog snaps, whose descriptions you identify with, whose doing great character development, etc. And then transcribe them....

EDIT: maybe the term I was looking for is: copywork?

Also, Google isn't scraping your data....

The Tour De France had one a long time ago, writing chalk signage on the roads [1]. I had to search for the YouTube video about it....

If i'm reading this correctly, can run Immich from a Raspberry Pi 4? That's pretty cool.

I bought all the stuff (new case, networking card and a Jonsbro N4 to repurpose some intel i7-9700 era processor and motherboard, but didn't get it setup yet, as I was starting to rethink the power consumption....

Also looking to use this rebuild as an opportunity to learn Nix.

Let me know if you all have some good article references, to point me at. I've been doing some research, but could always do more.

I may end up putting a low power NUC in the case, or something. I don't know...

I remember collecting original Shatter when it came out. The big novelty was that it was 100% created on a computer. Pixels and all in the output.

it said in the original article on the bun rewrite ~165K.

Everyone is deluding themselves if they think their enterprise privacy contracts with these frontier model companies (especially in CA) aren't reading and processing their private data

I do a really lightweight version of flash cards. Everytime I'm learning a new tool or tech, I grab oversized notecards (my favorite are 8x5" dot-grid cards). I put a label at the top, and create bullet points of each item i want to remember. I then review. No individual cards for each item or anything. Just all the things grouped on one card as bullet points.

For example, I'll have a `sqlite` card, and put all the commands and everything on it, as I learn them. I'll use it as a cheatsheet, but then also a few minutes of mindful review. This for the toolings that I want to know well enough to not get slowed down googling the commands. I do this for a lot of CLI tools, but also things I need to remember about the business of my company and working across group, etc....

Eventually the five or six working cards I have, get put on a pile and new ones come in.....

at least you haven't optimized a workflow to convert the page to markdown file, download locally into some folder that you watched 30 youtube videos on how to organize your knowledge graph....to never read later, or to burn 10s of Ks of tokens to build into karpathy wiki knowledge tree....

This is what I'm hoping to do. I haven't done much research yet, so I look forward to reading about your learnings. (Also to the person who responded to you with their experience and link.)

Thanks for saving me probably some hours...

EDIT: I'm also coming from an old Synology NAS from the ~2015 era.

I shift a 1 GB electron app to a 900 MB browser tab (i don't know what it actually is, but the number of Tabs I have taking up 1 GB memory is shocking these days).

Trying to vibe as many of my own CLI toolings as possible....
