අද පොහොය දවස. ශ්‍රී ලංකාවේ හැම මාසයකම පුන් සඳ පායන දවස පොදු නිවාඩු දිනයක්. වෙසක් පොහොය (මැයි මස) ලෝකයටම නිවාඩු දිනයක්.

Today is Poya Day. The full moon day of every month in Sri Lanka is a public holiday. Vesak Poya (May) is a holiday for the whole world.

sometimes I can feel the nerve endings on the ends of my fingers and it hurts really bad! my fault though, I am a serial nailbiter..

Really glad to be using Haskell for work - especially in today's climate with agentic coding. Our team uses containers to keep our development environment consistent across team members, though, and most agent sandbox approaches want to either offload your work fully to the cloud or they want to sandbox the agent harness process itself. We're not ready for full cloud based development (yet?) and sandboxing just the agent doesn't work for us when the agent needs to run docker.

... because letting the agent run docker gives them a too-easy escape hatch from their sandbox. So we're currently stuck with using VMs. This turns out to be tricky but seems do-able. My current approach is to provision a VM image and use Incus for the execution. My main goal is to keep my current workflow of local/non-agent dev working seamlessly and share the source with the VM/agent.

This means sharing my working dirs with the agent VM but overlaying artifact dirs from VM-owned block devices so we don't take too big of an IO perf hit. I also don't want the agent to be able to git push so that means we need some quirky git config to rewrite origin paths and thread through some agent specific PATs ("thanks" GitHub) for read-only repo access. These ALSO need to be threaded through to the development containers - they need to clone private repos.

... in the end, this seems to work but I haven't lived with it for long. There are still some quality of life issues to work out, but I think it'll work out. At this point, I've removed all coding agents from my host - and that's nice.

Curious, why does using Haskell make a difference here?

…

It's tangential to the sandboxing topic, really. I started the first post with a broader intent in mind and then elaborated on the sandboxing setup I'm working on. For AI-assisted coding, though, it's nice because Haskell provides a lot of feedback earlier in the development process compared to lots of other languages. It tends to work once it compiles (obviously not all the time).

More tweeter than tweeter?

more like the original version ya

My first post on Twitter in 2007 or so was kinda about the utility of broadcasting what was on my mind. :)

How did all the tech oligarchs seem to go fash so quickly?

Actually, this makes sense to me - www.youtube.com/shorts/-sFwG2lt-nU

every society gets the kind of criminals it deserves.

what is that supposed to mean?

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

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

…

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

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.

People have no idea how many news websites, SaaS websites, and apps I would subscribe to at prices of $30/year or less ($2.50/month).

I've been curious about the reasoning for prices too. Like, there has to be research behind it... But I agree it is far easier to buy four 2.5€ services than one for 5

So, I'm watching two shows right now - Silo and Attack On Titan. I'm nearing the end of S3 on Silo and have just finished S3 of AOT. The parallels between the two are interesting but the contrasts are more interesting, namely how much more intricate AOT is.

Throwing heavy circles over my head is the most fun i have each day.

Hello! Is anyone else trying local AI? Im dont know what im doing but lately ive been trying "Llama 3,2 3b instruct q5km" on my phone and its been surprisingly good.

Its to replace using central ai for basic tasks like text editing, analysis and brainstorming.

If you have Mac, you might check out this app: blaizzy.github.io/nativ/

…

i think the best you can get right now is qwen 3.8 27B. youre gonna need 24 gigs of some fast memory though, i heard theres decent quantizations that can also make it run on 16. im quite excited about open/local models, but theres big investment overhead with the prices right now

You might be able to try out colibri, its quite good and the models are a bit better. I am unable to connect any of the cli agents to do things with it though, probably due to context limits, but try it out. OlMoe is the lightest

Spotted this Royal Air Force A400 over the lake yesterday, it was so different from civil planes www.planespotters.net/…/zm420-royal-air-force-…atlas-c1-a400m-180

Can Digital ocean stop changing their UI every single day please. Its jarring to navigate it now, might as well go to aws at this point.

stop using ai then, easy as that!

what does ai have to do with it?

oké, megdumáltatok, a héten telepítem a kis virtuális állatseregletem mellé (webszerver, mechanikus 1. generációs robotkezdemény, led kijelző szalag) az első ai agent chatbotomat, egyelőre Virtualbox Ubuntu alá

Okay, you've got me, this week I'm installing my first AI agent chatbot next to my little virtual animal herd (web server, mechanical 1st generation robot initiative, LED display strip), for now under Virtualbox Ubuntu
