You can do engineering without an engineering degree. A degree is just a piece of paper.

I don’t think most people would say that the United CEO was killed for his political views. He was killed for the actions he was taking at his job. Not saying that’s justified, just that there is a difference there.

Yup this is what I've got up and running recently and it's been awesome. My setup is roughly the following. - Dell optiplex mini running Proxmox for compute. Unraid NAS for storage. - Debian VM on the Proxmox machine running Forge

I’ve found that I hit the limit just around the end of the 5-hour window, so it’s definitely been usable for me. But I’ve mostly been using it for gitops infrastructure in my homelab. I wonder if the token usage is lighter than if I were de

Have you ever smoked? I feel like I only hear this sentiment from people that have never tried nicotine. Nicotine absolutely produces effects that people enjoy. Smokers don't just do it because they want to smell bad and look cool.

There was some whole blowup with Booklore over it being vibecoded by a single maintainer recently. I think the project has changed ownership since then, but be cautious. I use Calibre + Calibre Web. Definitely a bit old and clunky, but reli

This is just... not true? I'm curious what you mean, because iCloud cannot be on by default since it requires you to set up an iCloud account. You're asked to sign into iCloud during device setup, which you can decline. Do you m

I make the commits myself, I don't let Claude commit anything.
71.
by dml2135 6mo ago
So if I use Claude to write the first pass at the code, make a few changes myself, ask it to make an additional change, change another thing myself, then commit it — what exactly do you expect to see then?
72.
by dml2135 6mo ago
Yea in my Claude workflow, I still make all the commits myself. This is also useful for keeping your prompts commit-sized, which in my experience gives much better results than just letting it spin or attempting to one-shot large features.

Same, I've been enjoying it a ton. Recently, with the help of Claude, I've used it to set up an entire CI/CD pipeline for my home server. The flow is roughly: Build Nix config into a VM image => Deploy VM to Proxmox via it

What you are describing sounds like a specific subset of professional engineering discipline, but I'd argue that "engineering" is much larger -- it isn't only "engineering" when you do it well and responsibly,

by dml2135 7mo ago
What is your definition of engineering, that "craft work" doesn't meet?

My point is that nix is a big enabler for me to use AI to configure my system, because it provides a safer environment in which to do so.

> But if the declaritive file is not read/understood, what is the difference? Well the main difference is precisely that I have a clear opportunity to read and understand the declarative file. But even if something were to sneak in
78.
by dml2135 7mo ago
For me, the difference is that there is no way in hell that I want to give an AI assistant full access to configure my system live. With a declarative config, the only access it needs is to an isolated git repo.

Ah, disappointing, I was planning to set this up at some point soon. Anyone know of good alternatives for setting up your own iptv channels?

But are you bypassing a security measure if you provide false information, when true information would also have let you pass?

Strongly agree here. This is an extremely predictable outcome of selling AI facial recognition software to American police forces.
83.
by dml2135 7mo ago
The “I” in “AI” stands for “intelligence”. Cops are using AI facial recognition because it is being sold to them as being smarter and better than what they are currently capable of. Why are we then surprised that they aren’t second-guessing

And who exactly is the target audience for a regression?

by dml2135 7mo ago
I would not say that this happens "a lot". This is the sort of thing that one tells themselves to justify their own introversion.

There are millions of Macbooks out there that will be out of MacOS support one day. If this project diverts just a fraction of them from becoming e-waste for a little, it will be a win. And then beyond that, there is simply no laptop manufa
