Codex /side allows you to toggle to a different pane and maintain an ephemeral or persistent side conversation at the context point which it was launched. It can't natively communicate back to the main thread though. It also allows you to fork the side chat into a new chat. I don't believe it can edit files in side chat mode so the only way to paste context back is fork and do that or just copy and paste. So similar to /btw but with other features.

Claude allows the teams feature and easily spawning co agents or subagents in tmux panes you can interact with (or send to the background). These can communicate with each other. Sometimes you can't interact with one of the tmux agents agents though if it was spawned as some specific type I can't remember.

How does that acceptance manifest in the workplace? Or have you found any accommodations that have been helpful?

Subagents will inherit the context window at the point in which they are spawned, but it sounds like you're more referring to orchestrating/conducting/managing multiple agents?

I really appreciate this sentiment. I've definitely had burnout thinking in the way of OP; this framing is more helpful than feeling inadequate

That’s a pretty good analogy though, noise is just information that isn’t immediately useful for the current task

If I need to know the current age I don’t need to know the past ages of someone

Have thought about creating this exact type of thing. I will be checking this out next week, and seeing what else might be out there though. One service I see that’s missing is parameter store, but if I actually needed it I’m guessing it would be pretty easy to add unless there’s a reason for not also including it.

I don’t know about timemachine but I have some anecdotal experience with Dropbox and ransomware. Essentially one person’s computer was infected which encrypted all the files for everyone in Dropbox. Because Dropbox had versioning on the files I was able to restore all the files back to the point before they were encrypted after removing and wiping the infected machines.

So if timemachine has versioning then maybe then you probably have some options, I’m not sure I’d call this being “safe” from ransomware.

What I’m saying though is that if I were running a script like this, unless I’m targeting a specific ip, I would just be scanning known ports for known vulnerabilities. I wouldn’t be scanning every single port.

Unless they are specifically targeting that system my assumption would be that they are just looking for open ports for known services, then if found checking if exploits work or not, and if not move on. I could very well be wrong but from a practical standpoint I can’t imagine this service mattering to someone that is running a program to scan for open ports with vulnerabilities.

I would imagine the amount of time someone spends “investigating” a port like 3306 is the amount of time it takes for the existing automated software to run a check to see if the mysql server is vulnerable. So unless the service on 3306 is able to spoof a vulnerable mysql server, they don’t care if it’s real or not. They just care if their tool reports a vulnerable service.

I can’t speak for OP but usually the issue with #3 for me is that the other criteria it needs to meet is that it works with whatever other integration I want. I remember when I looked the TP-Links were a good option but you just needed internet to set it up. Afterwards it just went on a vlan without internet. The camera needs to support Scrypted/Frigate for my use case but depending on needs for PTZ, Wi-Fi, resolution, night vision, etc, I may or may not be able to find one at a reasonable price that doesn’t require internet access for setup. TP Link makes good cameras at a good price but they require internet access to setup, so any camera that falls into #3 will get compared to a TP Link in #2

I tried this and had too many issues with other devices. I finally just bought a Brother laser printer with built in AirPrint that worked fine for many years but lately it seems to disconnect once in awhile. Current fix for that has been a smart switch that I programmed to just power cycle the printer twice a day.

Eventually I’ll just upgrade to a newer one with color and hopefully better AirPort support, but I’m glad cups and AirPrint works alright since I haven’t tried it in a few years. The issues your wife is experiencing though are likely the same ones that led me to just get a printer that supports it and from what I read at the time Brother has the best AirPrint support (purely anecdotal)

Awesome

Some additional feedback:

Still would be nice to just put in website.com and have it assume I mean https://website.com

- If a title is required maybe offer the option to just set the title as an emoji or something. This is definitely just my personal feedback I could be an outlier here.

- Once I submitted the email went to spam. I assume there’s not much you can do here other than become more established.

- After clicking the confirm link I’m taken to a page that says my changes have been confirmed and saved. I’d expect messaging along the lines of your page has been created along with a link to my page. Screenshot: https://www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/leus6ntppsf9yihe6i1sb/Lynx.Bo...

- At this point the only way I found to get to my page is just to type in what I assumed was the url format into the browser: lynx.boo/username

Wrote the feedback as I went through it. Once I see the page itself I understand why a title is required and an emoji might not make sense. Love the super clean layout and simplicity though, I will keep this tool in mind.
