doing this is necessary if and only if one's egg carton is opaque, bc a surprising lopsided distribution of mass could potentially lead to catastrophic mishandling of the carton. but the carton in the screenshotted post is transparent, making it an example of cargo cult behavior in this case

why is it that so frequently in the present day when we interact with a web page we find it buggy and/or sluggish and unresponsive? even operations which do not in any obvious way involve heavy computation or network operations can become arbitrarily slow. it would seem there is no good excuse
using "defense" as synecdoche for the american war apparatus is demonic propagandist behavior but also so thoroughly normalized that people will act like you're being obtuse if you point out that it's a really really really dishonest term for what it describes
we have to always be ready to defend ourselves with lethal force against the possibility of anyone anywhere in the world doing anything we don't like
imagine looking at the amount of munitions america has recently used for stupid shit & concluding we're going to "need" to focus on making more munitions as if we just "need" to constantly keep an insane stockpile for the next lunatic president that wants to have the nation go on a killing spree
sipping coffee, checking on my agents. claude failed to patch firefox to support the nonexistent browser apis my bank's website is tryna use. no matter; codex worked its own angle, got root on the bank's server. i spit out my coffee when i see the debit billing for the kimi that fucks my wife for me
universal basic income sufficient to cover 3/4 of the subscription you'll need to have an agent working 24/7 patching issues to make the software you need for all your day to day tasks actually work
can't wait for the day when we finally get a ubi in the form of openai company scrip
i have no particular desire to see ai progress forced to slow down. i don't think the tech is innately evil or scary, that generating stuff w/ ai is corrosive to the human spirit or whatever. but i also dont think datacenter development is an unalloyed good for the places where it happens lmfao
it's interesting that not trusting big tech companies to be true to their word is painted as "defector" behavior here. ought we default to believing that the tech industry writ large has our best interests at heart? that honest people rise to the top there? why would a person believe that?
Jeremy Diamond ☕️@dmnd.me · 16h agoFirst, and most importantly, anti-data center folks refuse to believe data center developers and tech companies engage in good faith. They have staked out a purely reactionary position. Negotiation is useless. Just reject everything by default. They're playing this as Always Defect.
gh issue close 43582 --comment "WONTFIX: just paste the whole codebase into fable bro what do you mean ur not paying our lord and savior dario amodei your tithe of 200$ a month yet what are you some kind of luddite"
not a fan of the idea of FOSS making the assumption that its users don't need it to be good right out of the box bc they can each individually pay a subscription to one of ~3 companies for a frontier coding agent or pay for hundreds or maybe thousands of $ of API use to get it working adequately
glm is stupider in my agent loop than when i just paste documents into the webui 😭
the one cartwheeling in out of nowhere at like a minute in lmfao
CSketch@csketch.bsky.social · yesterdayOh my god I think I found the video.
hmm looks like inference could be considerably cheaper if openrouter didn't occasionally decide to switch to a provider that doesn't have a cache and thus costs like twice as much per request 🙃
scratching my head looking at errored-out commands that seemed to just die silently at a random point in their ordinary execution. turns out glm snuck a [:500] in that truncates stderr output before it gets logged. why did glm decide to do this? who fucking knows
unix not allowing whitespace before the #! at the top of a script is so ass
set a 5$ daily spend limit and k3 hit it before actually doing anything lol
k3 will really burn a full dollar just kinda poking around to get its bearings huh
