I hope flock gets sued into oblivion, and I hope the officer that deployed a canine with no good reason gets sued into oblivion and loses his job. What a disgusting misuse of power.

for found in kitchen!

this file is extremely helpful actually. I have it configured so that the server that runs my git server when ssh'd into will automatically use the real ssh port.

This is a great change!

idk. I'm just extremely not sold on the idea of having practically any interaction going over the wire unless absolutely necessary. Keeping everything in the browser for as long as is physically possible is what improves responsiveness, a single page application, once loaded, is not susceptible to spotty connections, dropping packets, a slow connection, whatever, like html-over-the-wire is.

I have been extremely bearish on html-over-the-wire solutions from the minute I saw and understood what HTMX was trying to achieve. In my eyes, the only way to truly achieve what I, and users, expect in a web page is with a SPA. I understand the hesitation to use heavier SPAs, but my hesitation to fetching html from the server after the page load to update the page is much larger. But I also do understand how html-over-the-wire provides a good middle ground between web 1.0 apps where basically every interaction reloaded the entire page, and web 2.0 apps that feel closer to an actual application rather than a website.

I really like the idea of a work chat that could somehow be intelligently summarized, organized, and searched or shared via LLMs.

"feel like a single-page app" except that its not and it will never be. I hate HTML-over-the-wire solutions to any problem. There is not a worse solution that has been more normalized than html-over-the-wire.

"I can do math really fast"

"okay, what's 137*243"

"132,498"

"not even close"

"but it was fast"

As it's phrased in response to "are you happy to accept cookies", I suppose it could make sense, but I think every cookie button should be legally mandated to say "I accept cookies" or a similar variation that makes it EXPLICITLY clear that I am accepting cookies.

Personally, I like the LLMs.txt standard. I see AI scrapers hitting a few of my sites all the time, and I honestly am currently ok with my content being scraped (though I still retain my rights over my content, and this does not serve as permission to steal my content should I decide I am not okay with the theft of my content). Anything that can, sometimes quite dramatically, lower the bandwidth and cost of scrapers for both myself and the scrapers sounds like an ultimate good to me. I can understand the... I guess it's a repulsion to it, since you're putting work into something that ultimately leads to your content being stolen. However, we as developers must come to understand that in the current year, developers use and sometimes rely on large language models. I myself use Supermaven and have experimented with various LLM platforms, as well as self-hosted some models. LLMs are a great tool if you can use them correctly, though I am not some AI evangelist, not by any means. I believe LLMs.txt offers a significant benefit to users, operators, and AI providers.

As far as I see it, if a country is truly desperate to get some foreign good, it will. We see this with GPUs in China, despite there being very restrictive sanctions against China receiving American-produced GPUs, China, nonetheless, acquires American-produced GPUs. It's an endless game of whack-a-mole to get sanctions to completely work, and when they do, you've probably crippled your domestic markets.

This is a really good piece. In my eyes, AI as a creative medium is nothing more than an erasure of the human spirit. Instead of people reaching for a pen and endlessly monologuing onto a piece of paper, many instruct chatgpt to spit out some disingenuous garbage instead of using their ability of expression to create something actually meaningful in the world. AI is removing the need to have thoughts or ideas, many people dont care for the real purpose of creative expression other than praise or admiration, and as a result, real creativity is squandered by an illusion, a counterfeit. It's truly terrifying to think about where this continuous loss of authenticity will bring us.

I really think this exemplifies the reason why Lua is so useful.

I genuinely believe if the author understands it, AI tools to assist with development are amazing. I use an in IDE AI autocomplete, and it has increased my productivity dramatically without it. I'm still very capable without AI autocomplete, once you start to over rely on AI tools, and lose understanding of your codebase is when you're more vibe than not, and that's where I personally take issue. AI generated code I think is mostly fine assuming it isnt just a copy and paste from a oneshot chatgpt message with absolutely no understanding of what the code is doing whatsoever.

I think, like most things in the hiring process, being honest is your best bet.
