Switched from gpg to age, because pinentry sucks. With age I set both of my Mac’s security enclaves + software private key (stored in Passwords.app) + yubikey for hardware backup. Looks good.

we also launched Norma! :) It checks AI-generated code for security, quality and maintainability while the agent is still working, rather than after a pull request opens. The output is deterministic. Here the demo link: portal.qualityclouds.ai/demo

New in agenttop.dev : panels open in your . 🤹‍♂️ • Any panel can now split into its own pane, live, beside the table. • Works with all the popular multiplexers: , , 𝗮𝗻𝗱 𝗸𝗶𝘁𝘁𝘆. • run a panel on its own: agent-top mcp, agent-top slow, agent-top fails, agent-top advice. ➕ The # MCP panel also lists the orphaned MCP processes that outlived their agent and are still eating memory.

replied to:

Makes sense to me, though I think one important (IMO) aspect of this evolutionary role is incurring liabilities. Yes, software can be created by a wider audience, but when things go awry, would they have the aptitude or contingencies in place to recover and take responsibility?

replied to:

Agreed. I think the AI hype underestimates the human factor in keeping medium-to-large organizations running.

I think more than 50% of our economy's businesses, are cosplaying. Not in it for customers or profit; in it for investors and investments. "Looking like a business", as your real line of work.

Influencing, OnlyFans, sports betting, prediction markets. Gambling is fast becoming the American way of life.

"Financial nihilism" is the keyword

replied to:

I've never thought of something like OF as gambling. But I guess your point is that young adults are pushed to a lot of "you have a 0.1% chance of hitting it big and a 99.9% chance of getting no online traction at all" types of careers?

replied to:

Yeah, no point in investing in yourself or a real sustainable long-term future, just gamble the little you have for a shot at life above the line. Barbell economy.

I know many small business owners, and a clear majority do have investors, whether spouse, parents, or a small business loan. Easily more than 50% never make a profit. I know a woman who ran a clothing retail store for over a decade, who was never able to pay herself a dime. When the pandemic hit, everyone closed, but the ones who actually needed the business to pay their bills opened up as soon as it was allowed or shortly thereafter. Many took years. They are cosplaying.

replied to:

a business loan is not an investment, it is debt financing that pays back with interest. An investment means putting money into a company to gain ownership or a share of future profits. to me it feels like youre arguing against cosplaying, showing small businesses struggle and arent just playing boss for the funzies.

még csak barátkozom azzal a gondolattal, hogy a Gemma 4 miatt először is Windows 11 lesz a gépen (meg hogy Szentmihályon presszó lesz), ezért nehéz elkezdeni

I'm still getting used to the idea that because of Gemma 4, I'll have Windows 11 on my computer first (and that there will be a presso in Szentmihály), so it's hard to get started.
