- skeledrew 11mo agoChoose whitelisting over blacklisting, like making your own tools that you give to it, and allow nothing else.
- alexfoo 11mo agoChoose racially neutral terminology… allowlist and denylist (or blocklist)
- dpifke 11mo agoShouldn't you be out protesting your local chess club instead of posting on HN right now?
- hluska 11mo agoThis topic was boring years ago. At this point, it’s all been said by better who are better at writing than you.
- blitz_skull 11mo agoNo, I’ll keep using the words that I want. I’m not going to be word policed by some twelve year old on the internet.

- metadope 11mo agoI am sorry and saddened to see your comment dimmed and dissed by our brethren. Everyone is in a mood, after entertaining the terror that comes with deploying unsupervised super-potent Agents, the year of living dangerously. I for one appreciate having my consciousness raised in the middle of all this, reminding me of the importance of other humans' experiences. Or, were you tongue-in-cheek, just yanking chains, rattling cages? In either case: Keep up the good work.
- simlevesque 11mo agoLet us know when your allowlist is done.
- maxbond 11mo agoI don't know why you're implying the list is unbounded but this isn't very difficult. You don't have to have perfect foresight and one shot the list. You'll add things as you discover you missed them or as you adopt new tools/scripts. Don't let the perfect be the enemy of the good, there is a lot of space between running agents directly on your system and an environment too locked down or sophisticated to realistically maintain.
- sunaookami 11mo agoOf course there are many ways but LLM don't use them. They use standard commands and you will get a confirmation prompt in the terminal where you can deny and you are thrown back into prompting.
- nicolaslem 11mo agoThey do get really creative to achieve their goals. Claude Code routinely uses these kind of one liners.
