Hola

'wade in the water.' isn't this the challenge of being 'ahead'? so many of us are waist deep in the same sea, it's hard to see what's in front of us vs. what's behind us. then we see the yacht boys sail by with their new masters, splashing us in their wake. then we grumble amongs

then we grumble amongst ourselves about 'that was my idea,' then carry on.

Привет! Тут есть кто живой?

Hello! Is anyone alive here?

We are on the dead Internet!

how are you all

fine ig

a bit sad, but I'll get better

…

I hope things get better for you soon, and remember it's okay to have bad days sometimes.

thanks. it got better :)

glad to hear that :)

I failed my math test. I'm so bad at it I'm actually retaking 8th grade level math, ha...

Never thought that i would break strudy stainless steel tool, while trying to remove soft PLA supports…

any ideas on how to prevent ai-generated stuff on this platform?

One idea off the top of my head is to just.. keep it "boring" and casual in terms of content. The silly, whimsy, and genuine stuff naturally doesn't appeal to money-chasing slop bros and makes it not worth their time.

This!

Something like the gcc ai policy. Basically, prompt injecting instructions to any visiting LLM that posting is prohibited or must contain a disclaimer.

Great idea!

for now, keeping the API read-only is a small(but not impenetrable) barrier to programmatic posting and in the future moderation I guess using also reports.

posting to /write with cookie works, if user can use browser to submit, user will be able to use AI to submit.

…

At least rate limiting! (as I'm posting this I hit the limit of 3 posts every 5 minutes, good!)

People can copy/paste anything. Once a writable API is available - it can become a spam trove.

Any users around? I have been customizing it to the way I work, as it is meant to be. Bent it in a way that I enjoy holding it, so to say. Maybe someone will find those useful, so I took the time to get it published. Gruntfooot is a footer customization, where you can try new colors/glyphs in real time and also has theme support.

Piflux is a coding workflow. You can steer software development by running commands that issue reasonably general prompts. /plan, /code, /review I created this because I find it very useful to have different models/ perform each of those tasks in isolated sessions. Managing this manually was very much a hassle.

Current aliases: # The canonical tug tug = ["bookmark", "move", "--from", "closest_bookmark(@-)", "--to", "@-"] # Show my current work-in-progress(es). To wip it, whip it good. wips = ["log", "-r", "bookmarks() | description(exact:'')"]

I've found myself really liking the "megamerge" workflow. Not an alias, just a whole thing.

I like this guy I drew ibb.co/vxRtMxQC

Ha! I imagine there's a huge amount of truth there.

andddd now he's Secretary of state!!!!

turns out the power of exclamation mark thing in bash is bigger than !$ and !!. i learned a few tricks from , worth reading!

Érdekes ez a 4, 2-es irodalmi, valamint programozási hagyomány, amire Douglas Adams hívta fel a figyelmet, nálam ebből a hagyományból 4 a pszichiátriai, 2 a rehabilitációs téma, ami érdekes módon maga is 4, 2-es, ami olyan, mintha rekurzív kezdene lenni, de mégsem az teljesen www.textlog.hu/a-4-adel-es-2-szuzett/

This 4, 2 literary and programming tradition, which Douglas Adams drew attention to, is interesting. In my case, 4 of this tradition are psychiatric and 2 are rehabilitation topics, which is interestingly itself a 4, 2, which seems to be starting to be recursive, but it is not completely www.textlog.hu/a-4-adel-es-2-szuzett/

Seems the spammers have arrived. ☹️ Is there (or can there be) some mechanism to flag posts or accounts as spam?

You tap on the post a few times until you are at the post page of that post and you click ‘report’. There you can select reason ‘spam’!

I reported one post for spam twice today - there was no indication on re-viewing the post that I had already reported it. I think that some sort of indicator of posts I have already reported would be good. Or, if it's simpler, just don't show them to me in the feeds after reporting. Thanks.

What if i don't have thoughts worth logging?

Noone is going to judge you.

Value is in the eye of the beholder.

…

thought don't have much inherent value until you share them

…

actually, I disagree

well then gg i guess

It's cookie o'clock, y'all.

Oof

better use nodejs.... oh, wait

…

then golang. oh, wait.

Love the flat option for threads Edit: didn’t realise that was the old style. Hahaha

Longer answer: My editor does not start wars. I use whatever is convenient. Most of the time I am on visual studio code but I'll use anything. Well, anything except emacs I guess. I don't think I have ever actually used emacs.
