ok, let me expand on why I don't like it... It's making a niche rarely done use case safer at the cost of making the common case (browsing the web) less safe. And yes, I am fully aware that I can not press the button that give ran

You can make a harness fully functional with just the "shell_exec" tool if you give it access to a linux/unix environment + playwright cli.

Well, this seems like a terrible idea. I really don't want websites to be able to access hardware. I am already uncomfortable with the webcam access.

A lot of things don't need that. Also, don't underestimate the reliability of simplicity. I was a Linux sysadmin for many years, and I have never seen as much downtime from simpler systems as I routinely see from the more complica

Lol, try 20 min at most if taking it slow. (I used to be a linux admin)

Disable password auth and go with key based, it's easier and more secure.

I remember being impressed with the Azure docs... until I spend a week implementing something, only to have it completely fail when deployed to the test environment because GraphAPI did not work as documented. The beautiful docs were a comp

You really want to claim that with the amount of outages lately? We are trending towards zero nines (not 100) uptime.

It's not a parody when they accept money and deliver the service.

If I had a puzzle I really needed solved, then I would not ask a rando on the street, I would ask someone I know is really good at puzzles. My point is: For AGI to be useful, it really should be able to perform at the top 10% or better leve

Now I feel lucky that I switched to just using OpenRouter a year ago because LiteLLM was incredible flaky and kept causing outages.

The article explains it. This is not for streaming over the web, but for editing professional grade video on consumer hardware.

I recently had to go through several remote desktop apps before I found one that would work.

Nice, that actually looks really good. I was not expecting that. Usually when there's no screenshot or video for GUI apps I assume it's because the creator is not proud of it, so a sign that the UI will be shit.

pointing at the menu and saying "that one" works just fine.

Atomic rollback is kinda big for servers. If you manage enough diverse servers, then patching will break something critical fairly frequently. Back when I was a sysadmin, Windows updates would break some server every 2 months, and Redhat ev

I started out running FreeBSD on my home servers, then moved to Alpine Linux because all server software that I wanted to run was provided in Docker docker containers and with docker compose examples, so it was just easier. Moving the ZFS p

This honestly sounds like the best proposed solution I have heard.

Isn’t this pretty much how everyone uses agents? Feels like it’s a lot of words to say what amounts to make the agent do the steps we know works well for building software.

I can't believe how far down I had to scroll before someone called the OP out for not having actually read the article and just decided to make up their own topic.

Isn’t dependent types replicating the object oriented inheritance problem in the type system?

Outside of work I don't know anyone who pays for AI. But I have noticed that everyone seems to be using ChatGPT as the generic term for AI. They will google something and then refer to the Gemini summary as "ChatGPT says...".

Yeah, but PayPal is an even bigger pain.

If maintainers of open source want's AI code then they are fully capable of running an agent themselves. If they want to experiment, then again, they are capable of doing that themselves. What value could a random stranger running an A

Having used AI to write docs before, the value is in the guidance and review. I started out with telling the AI common issues that people get wrong and gave it the code. Then I read (not skim, not speed, actually read and think) the entire

Bad example, you really should just write caching yourself. It’s far too little code to pull in a dependency and if you write it yourself in every project that needs it then you will get good at it, so cache invalidation bugs won’t be an is

Looking at https://arcprize.org/leaderboard the cost/task is about the same as Opus 4.6.

Every single new tech industry thing has to learn security from scratch. It's always been that way. A significant number of people in tech just don't believe that there's anything to learn from history.

At $13.62 per task it's practically unusable for agent tasks due to the cost. I found that anything over $2/task on Arc-AGI-2 ends up being way to much for use in coding agents.

None of that stuff is necessary, they all get it right with the initial question and no further prompt if you dial the reasoning effort up.
