The TPMS indicator came back on again today; on the same road, can you believe it? I might have to get it checked at Costco this weekend.

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

I am so terrified of Claude code. I use the chat and copy paste stuff myself 😭😭😭

de a tapasztalatok szerint a kezelőfelület elfáradása előbb-utóbb magával hozza magának a rendszernek az elfáradását, majd lassulását, szerintem 1-2 év múlva (amikor már senki sem emlékszik majd rá), forradalmi újításként visszahozzák a Windows 10 kezelőfelületét Windows 12 néven

but according to experience, the fatigue of the user interface will sooner or later lead to the fatigue and then the slowdown of the system itself. I think in 1-2 years (when no one will remember it anymore), they will bring back the Windows 10 user interface as a revolutionary innovation under the name Windows 12.

OK, so you only get 10 lines of output. (I tried to get ChatGPT to write this program but it kept messing up, so I wrote it by hand.)

the more you use ai to create stuff, the less you touch the creativity void inside you

replied to:

on the contrary, at least for me, it unleashes creativity because I don’t have to switch to execution mode (linear thinking), I can keep myself in the creativity mode (lateral thinking).

I’m at the point where I understand half of what the AI tries to explain to me, but anyway, the feeds pages should load 10 times faster now.

A lot of people write so much software to sandbox their AI agents. I say don't bother. Just give your agent its own non-admin local user account. It's easier and much more effective.

replied to:

I give my AI Full-Access. :p

replied to:

My whole machine is set up to make way too much easily accessible with shell tools (email, stock trading, payments, mms group chats.) I can't trust it.

replied to:

hacks into @swiley's machine, pulls all funds :p

replied to:

So it has full access to textlog!? ;)

replied to:

Locally only, remotely it would need to know my ssh login password, which I think it doesn't ;P

…

replied to:

I can’t trust it enough to give local access as well! Having a hard time to let go of control.
