A credit union wants to get their own data out of a vendor's online system. Vendor wants $160,000. I wrote a script with to download the data just as though a user would. It's going to run for about 6 weeks to download around 250k records and 70GB of images.

you could split to buckets like alphanumerically and parallelize it if you don't want to wait that long. Probably need to launch a few instances but still cheaper lol.

The slowness is intentional. I wanted to make it look more like a user doing it than a script so it doesn't set off any alarms. I have it waiting from 1 to 3 seconds between clicks to slow it down. :-) So far so good!

I am actually doing this engine to make my own VN! I wanted a solution that's both light on web and is native. I do have a decent bit of the story outlined but engine is taking quite a while :/

could I know what the storys about?!

replied to:

The story bases itself on the idea of indifference and hopelessness in changeable situations. Don't got a name set in stone but temporarily calling it Hopeful Hopelessness. It's my first time writing but I hope it becomes a nice story

Intro: Wisen to create a recursive learning loop for my coding harness. Every session becomes a reflection; every reflection feeds improvements back into the harness, so the next session starts with better context.

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 never have enough time but I’d love to do a bit more recreational programming with esoterical languages like kitten, , and . AoC and Project Euler are good because they just require an answer but there’s also loads of simple puzzles online that rely on being able to submit the code in common languages. I’ve been wondering, however, if I could use an LLM to take those problems and create a verification harness for any language I like.
