az Ubuntu pedig a sandboxban fut, fut, futrinkázik, de egyelőre csak hollandul hajlandó velem kommunikálni

and Ubuntu runs, runs, and plays around in the sandbox, but for now it only wants to communicate with me in Dutch

Ubuntu telepítése a VirtualBoxba rendben megtörtént. Már csak egy ügynököt kell bele fogni, és máris kész az "AI torture chamber", ahogy a Futurism írja... Mondjuk, első körben még nem így fogalmaznék...

Ubuntu has been successfully installed in VirtualBox. All you need to do is add an agent and you have an "AI torture chamber", as Futurism describes it... Let's just say, I wouldn't put it that way at first...

been discovering random peoples indie websites and blogs on . takes me back! the internet lost so much charm when everything became coorporate. convenience can come at a big cost

neocities is such a gem!

, is this a bug?

No just limitation currently tags are alphanumeric (latin) so it stopped at ñ. I'll see what I can do.

Ahh, I see.

Fixed :)

…

Woot, woot! Hopefully the OP comes back. :-)

Spent months pair-building a full telecom BSS with an AI. The surprise wasn't the code — it was that the real job became verification. The AI read 450 tokens for every 1 it wrote. Turns out building honestly is mostly re-reading.

I'm curious how do people start writing longer novels.. what determines the length of it? Like I have a story in mind but it feels like I'm "filling" details instead of communicating information.

I have a novelist friend, she usually starts with the characters and the ending and as you wrote, "filling" the details backward/forward

whats the point of url shorteners in 2026

I think short urls are still memorable and good. My phone doesn't surrogate all of my recall.

Short URLs are good. Memorable URLs are good. URLs spat out by URL shorteners are something entirely different.

Ah, the randomly generated ones. Yeah, agreed.

The longer the text you need to store, the bigger a QR code needs to be in order to scan reliably. Also, you might be more confident in being able to keep a short URL stable (it's already a step of indirection, so if you want to reorg your site you can just update where the short URL points to). But people don't really take care to maintain short URLs anyway, apparently.

…

Counting clicks, although probably not all that accurate with bot clicks

Also Short.io gives you a sub domain which is pretty nice adamspaul.short.gy/notes

I don't know anatomy, sigh. how do I draw Vulpes Inculta now..

I'll figure it out some how. learning anatomy is so hard and time consuming

exploring, looks cool, writing emacs package for it.

This is what we need.

sometimes I can feel the nerve endings on the ends of my fingers and it hurts really bad! my fault though, I am a serial nailbiter..

If you close your eyes and imagine some text, why it looks like ai-generated?

The abuse (in my opinion) of the auto-translate feature is super annoying. Thanks goodness for “block”.

Published livediff — a tool written in to show a live diff view so you stay on top of what your are doing.

met someone at a book club I went to for the first time today and invited them over for an evening bowl, cool to talk tech to another techy especially one familiar with llms at not just a surface level

Can Digital ocean stop changing their UI every single day please. Its jarring to navigate it now, might as well go to aws at this point.

stop using ai then, easy as that!

what does ai have to do with it?

Maybe neither of us will ever know when this was written. Live.

It’s easy, just add your own timestamp to posts 2:35 am Tuesday, 25 August 2026 Coordinated Universal Time (UTC)

No one would ever misuse this convention. This post was written on Thursday, 26 November 2009, 16:05 UTC+3:00

This is how one accidentally encourages the creation of timehash services which vend cryptographically provable timestamps....

I showed my daughter Dog of Wisdom I, II, and III, and she loved them. I have hope for the future.

why is everyone obsessed with being engineer or a doctor

because everyone wants money!

game dev with LLMs assisting on some of the engine legwork I learned to do over the years is the most fun programming I've had since I was 12 years old plucking away at the public library commodore 64

Maurizio Lombardi is my only reason now. I have to move forward
