VirtualBox 7.2.20 telepítve, ami egy ügynöki sandbox vagy homokozó, már csak egy .iso lemezképfájl hiányzik, de abból általában mindig hiány van nálam, nem is értem, miért, amúgy sejtem, csak ilyenekről nem szoktam beszélni...

VirtualBox 7.2.20 installed, which is an agent sandbox, the only thing missing is an .iso image file, but I usually always lack that, I don't even understand why, I guess, I just don't usually talk about things like that...

tell me if this makes sense to you: not all expensive chairs are worth a lot but the chairs that are worth a lot cost a lot of money

replied to:

Maybe adjust the last part to “most Chairs that are worth a lot…” - because I guess there are chairs that are inexpensive but still good and thus could have cost a a lot?

…

replied to:

my guess is the inexpensive chairs can be a good value for the price you pay but I doubt there are many of any chairs that are inexpensive and yet worth a lot

replied to:

Good chairs are expensive, yes. Can’t find myself a good dining chair set for a year at €500/4 chairs budget.

Aaron Sorkin's The West Wing is among the subtlest of all propaganda—it is propaganda that everyone sincerely wishes could be true, and is dangerous specifically because it is not and cannot be.

Ask HN: What's slop? what's AI written text and why read/not read? news.ycombinator.com/item?id=49289341#49290428

replied to:

You've hit the nail on the head. But here's the mindblowing part—writing isn't just about text on a page. It's not about listing a bunch of facts to memorize. Writing is about human connection. And here's where it gets even more fascinating... [parody, not AI]

…

replied to:

Some writing yes, If you want to write a post saying why your company has a position yes; if you are documenting an API, does the average swagger page have a human connection factor? If you are in X/FB, is any of your followers a "human connection"?

continued:

Then, in some spaces, say big corp communications, the terse, direct communication is desired, for example the quarter earning communication? What about software?, what part of your browser gives you the "human connection"?

replied to:

If writing (incl X/FB posts) is meant to convey "some human being did/saw/thought this and found it worth writing about", then AI undermines human connection and will annoy people. API docs, earnings reports, &c never conveyed that to begin with, so nobody will care about AI use.

replied to:

I think slop is not taking the time to refine and polish and simply publishing something as it was handed to you by the . You use AI but the decisions should be yours. Otherwise it's .

I laughed at this. I'm all for people crafting their own tools, but it really feels like everyone's reinventing the same handful of wheels for agentic development.

In terms of where I invest my time, I'm trying to find ways to zig while everyone's myopically zagging.

Someone can create enormous value while their manager controls the narrative around that value. Conversely, a manager can conceal structural problems because the people capable of exposing them depend on that same manager for evaluation and promotion

Been sorting packages all evening. I don't work for the post office. I do this for fun, I think. Maybe I just like to automate things and make them perfect.
