I mean, I have three kids

"To begin with, it is essential to emphasize that we say a Balaclava and not a Balaclava."

Right. Thanks for clearing that up, AI.

Negative. I am a meat popsicle.

Look, I feel for junior admins, I was one 35 years ago and the only reason I'm where I am today was because I had to learn the hard way, repeatedly and often.

I use the shit out of opencode to do things as a force multiplier, not as a way to keep me from knowing what its doing.

The point at which we're optimizing for "we don't need to know that anymore" is the point at which everything blows up, because agentic work is not fully deterministic, models hallucinate even simple things.

Blindly relying on your agent weapon of choice to just do the right thing because you didn't take the time to understand how the lego fits together is an actual problem.

Like six months ago we got a presentation from an AWS guy on the AI tooling available and how it fit with our particular use cases.

At one point seemingly out of nowhere he pointed out on his screen share "Look at how many tokens I've used this month. I run so much Opus." It was a number that was offensively large.

I remember thinking "That's a really odd flex, this crap is so expensive the fact that you use so much should be a red flag"

He demonstrated a number of Claude Code use cases he had to manage and tweak AWS infrastructure that made me, the old greybeard sysadmin older than the internet think "You've used AI to do something that was a single command."

So this story makes sense. They were being encouraged to just blast away at it six plus months ago.

You can Adblock a mobile browser (sort of). That would not be at play in the app.

It’s always about the cash.

Right this second, four.

I harvest tabs mercilessly, I either read and close or if its something I want to keep I have the bot clip into my obsidian vault

Do people just name things now without googling to see if a project already uses the name?

I use Atkynson Mono Nerd Font in my terminal. (Name is different in the forked font, it’s spelled Atkinson Hyperlegible officially)
