Running LLMs with some form of sandboxing is much easier than eating healthy or going to gym. Speaking as someone that is procrastinating lifting weights but found 15 minutes to lock down Claude.

The chase of more and more books because of my Goodreads friends’ goals is what got me reading 70 books a year, and abhorring the experience. What a joyless hunger to get through books FAST. I stopped counting, and with a toddler I find bit

The safety and trust that comes out of a very reliable database setup is, apparently, a misplaced feeling that makes data bugs harder to fix. I really don’t understand their take. My experience is the opposite: add as many checks and safety

I don’t think we could have a productive conversation together. I’m sorry that parents irk you so much, I really am, and hope that this eventually gets better for you. I’m not in your country, and any tax breaks you think I get are offset b

Deno offers practically everything I see here, but is mature, serious, written before LLMs (not sure about now), and has a solid team behind it. But okay, it’s not the fastest kid on the block; although “X but faster” isn’t the most compell

I didn’t mean to go with the easy, default criticism of AAAs as slop and repetitive; it’s just that _lots_ of smaller devs/studios are putting out excellent gameplay and/or narratives.

It’s officially titled Multimedia and there are lots of practical classes. But about half of it was Sociology, Anthropology, journalism-related stuff, theory of symbols, screenwriting, analysing media, etc. We also had a semester of counter

I’m a parent and don’t agree with this kind of measure. No parent in my non-tech circle wants this. None of them are worried about the stuff politicians talk about. We care about raising them well, schools, energy drinks, bullying, whether

Yeah, some people really need to take a step back from where they hang out. If you think all there is to the internet is the Five Places and the Weird Chinese Thing (paraphrasing from OP), you’re being quite myopic. Heck, do we even know an

I like your take, but specifically to the Apple Watch: I’ve been using it for 10 years, and still find it annoying that Apple ships so few high-quality digital faces. It’s either cutesy stuff with one complication or overwhelming complex on

I assume he knew exactly what he was doing, given that his political allegiance spared him for some ongoing investigations, forced his stock into pension saving funds, pushes his failing car onto the foreground, etc. Well played Elon, selli

If you swerve hard enough, the car lets you. I agree the system can be infuriating, but in a long highway ride I found it useful. In the city it’s usually off, I think there’s a speed factor to it. (I disagree with many modern car systems a

I had a mandatory philosophy course as part of high-school, and as lucky to pick a practical-yet-philosophical degree. You can easily pick up other skills, but it’s lovely to learn philosophy early on. I spent my 20s trying to become a Stoi

I like the notion that religions prescribe a philosophy of life. That’s really all they are, with 1+ deities to justify the basis for it. Or, you know, you pick a philosophy that makes sense without the fear of god(s).

If everyone thinks like that, no jobs are created. Xbox hires a ton of people and creates genuine value for consumers. Okay, that last part you can question, but I’m an original Xbox-er so I believe in it. 3% profit should be totally fine f

Fair, but who told them to buy up everything? That part annoys me to no end. And the bad plays are management-related, so they’re firing a bunch of people…

I guess it depends on the country and how much the will deviates from reasonable clauses? I’m looking into making one now, and a notarised will has to have reasonable clauses straight away; an enclosed will that is open later can say whatev

I think the in-app PIN code and/or biometric ID is merely a convenience to avoid typing your password all the time. I’ve never used a banking app that doesn’t offer both, and then ask for your real login details every now and then. As

The scripted talks in front of fancy backgrounds do make it unpalatable, it’s just a fancier version of corporate slideshows. I suppose trillion-dollar companies aren’t as willing to take risks.

With the banks I use, the difference is: A) on mobile, use my face or 6-digit pin to get in. B) on web, go get my wallet where my ID is, hunt for the USB digital ID reader, grab a USB-C adapter, put everything together, and either confirm t

You can use Aivo with Claude Code. But… if you want freedom, I’m finding Pi to be frankly amazing. I detested OpenCode. Pi with some of the top plugins and hashline edits is very good. I stopped using MCPs because of their post about it, an
