I was about to prepare a rewrite cause a personal program was failing but realized I had an incomplete change and was incorrectly identifying an error from valid data. Actually so weird to pick up a project after weeks of not touching it

Last year I wasn't feeling too good. I turned forty, waited for surgery, and was hurt by my own colleagues. So I dealt with things. Maybe not so well, but to the best of my ability. One of the consequences was that I got a bit heavy. My body changed, and I didn't feel like myself. It was a problem for future me. So now I am here with this little belly of mine. We're not enemies, but I decided it's time to part ways. So I count calories. Maybe not so well, but to the best of my ability.

Wishing you success in forming the new habits you want!

Thank you! Almost back to baseline now, after a few months. trigger warning, eating disorders: I sometimes forget to log what I eat in my app of course, but what is perhaps slightly nore disturbing is the fact that I sometimes log stuff and then forget to actually eat them. Some sort of Baudrillardian simulacrum of eating.

Hell must have frozen over. I just installed Openclaw on my Linux box. I had already cobbled together an agent like thing (pi) that I talked to over Telegram, so I figured, let's give Openclaw 2.0 a try, locked down completely at first, but slowly opened up over time.

I've been enjoying toast to help click through a project. I still mostly use Zed to handwrite code, but it's nice to open a pane and fire up toast from the terminal. paradise-runner.github.io/toast/

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

replied to:

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.

replied to:

This!

…

replied to:

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

replied to:

Great idea!

replied to:

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.

replied to:

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

replied to:

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

replied to:

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

I though textlog was a gonner there. It was several hours with just a 502 response. Glad to see it's back!

replied to:

I messaged stagas on reddit about it when it went down lol

replied to:

I'm certainly glad it's still around, I just got here.

At a philosophical level, can we have nice things?

I want this expanded and enacted by one of those guys doing Jordan Peterson impersonations :D

And kermit the frog sardonically

replied to:

I think yes, but precisely NOT "at a philosophical level". You can have it only if you get your hands dirty and build it yourself. I think already proved this, just as a close example.

entropy says no

replied to:

If speaking on a philosophical level, then first we have to ask: what’s “nice” and what’s “to have” 👀

replied to:

If you consider what you have nice, you can have nice things. If your expectations to your surroundings are very very low, you will be amazed with all the nice things you get from people you meet through your day. My personal approach.
