That’s because you pay attention to your body and you’re not in denial. Above 37 degrees, your body cannot regulate itself, and it starts being seriously uncomfortable before that. Going outside for a run when it’s 40 is unbelievably stupid

Thousands will die, but one guy went jogging at 40 degrees outside so it’s okay.

Unless the aircon is a heat pump, in which case it’s also useful in the winter, it’s more efficient and carbon neutral if your electricity grid is decarbonised. If most people can’t afford a heat pump, why do we entertain the idea of making

Same in France. The trick is to wait for a control visit, and then turn on the cooling.

That kind of thinking kills more people each year in Europe than guns do in the USA. Let that sink in.

If he is confident enough to make economic predictions, it’s only fair that we take him to task on these.

Does the « greed of the few » include the masses who use air travel across the world, who use cars, who rely on energy infrastructure? I guess the answer is somehow no, because this is populist drivel of the worst kind. Did not expect that

This is honestly a very, very naive statement. We are social animals and we naturally gravitate towards devaluing and shaming certain styles of speech. We police speech already! It’s often unfortunate, but it’s not devoid of function. I, fo

It’s short term happiness at best, and at the expense of every other possible architectural characteristic (maintainability, performance, reliability, scalability, you name it).

I suggest a look at the recent economic development of Bangladesh, if you want something less abstract to illustrate the point that the reduction in poverty is very noticeable. You would think that a great reduction in extreme poverty would

A cursory look at the fall of extreme poverty across the world, over the last few decades, is enough to refute the idea that the world is largely based on exploitation.

Interesting! Is it any good? Did it age well?

A nice bonus is that sysadmin tasks tend to be light in terms of token usage, that’s very convenient given the increasingly strict usage limits these days.

No need for any AI-specific tool, this is exactly what devcontainer is for! Just tell your agent to use devcontainer up (and docker compose down the other way).

The thing is, with manual coding, you spot a view in the distance, you trek your way for a few hours, and you realize when you get there that the view isn’t as great as you thought it was. With LLM-assisted coding, you skip the trek and you

I have Hermes agent run a cron each hour to check if the Steam Controller if finally on sale. I don’t if that resonates with you, I quite like that use case personally :)

Thanks for the explanation! I wish I could edit my comment to reflect the truth.

Wow, that’s a total deal breaker to me. Using git may require a complex mental model, but at least it’s not doing anything I didn’t ask for.

Undefined variable references? Did you not instruct it to run typescript after changes?

That argument seems to assume a security model where the default prior is « no hostile agent ». But that’s the problem, any agent can be made hostile with a successful prompt injection attack. Basically, assuming there’s no hostile agent is

Internet access is required to install third party packages, so given the choice almost no one would disable it for a coding agent sandbox. In practice, it seems to me that the sandbox is only good enough to limit file system access to a ce

Code is not the only thing the agent could exfiltrate, what about API keys for instance? I agree sandboxing for security in depth is good, but it’s not sufficient and can lull you into a false sense of security.

But even then, the agent can still exfiltrate anything from the sandbox, using curl. Sandboxing is not enough when you deal with agents that can run arbitrary commands.

A tale as old as time: hubris. A successful system is destined to either stop growing or morph into a monstrosity by taking on too many responsibilities. It's hard to know when to stop. React lost me when it stopped being a rendering l
