Even if you don't have cryptocurrency they can still go after your GitHub credentials and run some very expensive agent and runner workloads.

I've started developing with a separate user account to limit the blast radius but you still need to login to access repos and use AI features.

Some companies don't split because they want all internet traffic to go through their internal MITM proxies to enforce acceptable internet use and data loss policies.

I initially thought this was a good idea too until another comment pointed out you'll lose most business or personal customers in offices because they connect through VPN gateways running on those cloud services (especially Azure)

> I believe our current work environments will be romanticized one day

While I'd like to think so I can't see myself romanticising the open plan cattle pen we're in now.

I do romanticise when I had my own cube and desk, still loud but nothing compared to the cattle pen we're in now with long floor wide benches, having your opposite neighbour's face in your field of view all day and everyone yelling on zoom calls from all directions.

Remember? I'm still using it! As great as streaming is it's always an arms race with blocking the ads, sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't. They're now streaming the actual content off pubads.g.doubleclick.net to make sure if you block ads you don't get to see anything. It also embeds ads in the stream that ffmpeg merges.

MythTV lets me record free to air and skip through the ads.

As a new starter to the team I was flooded with alert emails every few minutes. When I asked what the deal was, was promptly given a bunch of mail rules every other team member used to dump them all into another folder they never looked at.

> A few nights ago I instructed my project manager bot to ship one secret feature to PromptBase at 4am and deploy it whilst I was asleep - it just had to benefit the site in some way.

> I wanted to see what this felt like - which sounds weird - I know.

This is such a needlessly reckless thing to do on a 500k user production site that takes customer money.

> Amazing to see people going on a beautiful hike, while chatting with agents all the time to "do some work".

I disagree, enjoy the beautiful hike and give your brain a rest.
