We've re-invented GNU screen in the most inefficient way imaginable
- block_dagger 8mo agoThat’s not at all how this works. Commands are relayed through Anthropic’s servers with a client polling mechanism.
- reverius42 8mo agoRight, that's the "most inefficient way possible" (though personally I disagree, there are more inefficient ways to be found).
- bandrami 8mo agoYou could put the transport protocol on the blockchain, I suppose
- throwaw12 8mo agoYou are making me more creative. we can upload snapshot of zip files to blockchain, then notify customer via servers
- wild_egg 8mo agoI'm probably 10 years out of date. Are ethereum smart contracts still a thing? I'm sure you could deploy one of those for every agent session to handle the notifications
- gtowey 8mo agoEven better, train an entirely new LLM with your prompt added to its data set. It will be imbued with its own latent sense of purpose. All you need to do after that is type "let there be light!"
- bandrami 8mo agoYes, that's a significantly less efficient way to manage persistent sessions
- 63stack 8mo agoI'm pretty sure "how do we disallow running our agents in screen sessions" is on a jira board at some places
- petesergeant 8mo agoI’m running the agent in tmux in a colo. When I’m at a computer I use that, when I’m on the go the RC app is more convenient
- Toutouxc 8mo agoWell it DOES have less storage than a Nomad (hence lame), but this way you don't need to pay for a public IP address, or for a VPS to run Wireguard on, or for a commercial VPN solution, and then install a terminal emulator on your phone and set up SSH keys.

- lkjdsklf 8mo agotmux/screen is literally less work to use than this thing. You need to learn to type less than a dozen total characters including the command. Not to mention a lot of terminals automatically integrate with tmux so you don’t have to do anything but open the terminal. Sure, different tools for different people. And if you want to use a new fangled triangular wheel they just invented, no one’s going to stop you It’s still a triangular wheel at the end of the day

- ebiester 8mo agoPeople tried reinventing terminals, SSH, and tmux for phones. It's a pretty terrible experience using your thumbs. And it takes significant know-how to set up. And in modern stacks, it almost necessitates a man in the middle - tailscale is common but it's still a central provider. So is it really the most inefficient way possible?
