this quote makes me feel Linus need some sleep.

"... Quite often at that point, when I look at the code, I sometimes find issues."

made me giggle. "half the time, it works 100% of the time!" (ref)

not saying its not moving in the right direction but i feel a lot of these things that are now security defaults are a bit oversold considering a lot of people seem to rely on them being enabled and will just enable them again to the same effect. so theres not really more security.

ofc, better defaults are better theres no argument there. just feel like the whole approach of these tools to allow arbitrary code execution and remote resources by design is the really issue,.not the default settings. (ofc, i have no solution for it too!)

now it will say mhm, and yeah to pretend its listening. Just like a real human -_-.

skipping it too. these things never translate well from books. havent really seen any good scifi novels turned to movies which were then also good movies. (understandably,.you lose a lot of detail).

maybe its just not my medium.

can actually imagine this might end up making enough data (like social media sites do it, not litteral data but metadata / profiling the generally accepted cost for 'free services' to make it generally available, atleast someday.

like people can use youtube and facebook etc. for free too.

ofc its maybe not an idealist thing but looking at how those services work and how people enjoy using them it might not be all that bad (the integrity of people using the data could be better perhaps but this is humans learning to overcome their own shadows. it takes generational learning).

ofc not sure about the sites goals or anything but thats what came to mind thinking about the costs involved and how to expose it for free permanently atleast at some tier

im just sad it didnt render a qr code leading to malware :'). the different ways ppl look at obfuscated codes and scripts hah

i think the proof is in understanding how LLMs work, not a certain prompt. this because output isnt determenistic and hence a single prompt couldnt (theoretically) reliably prove anything. thats the exactly problem :')

this definition is already flawed which should indicate its difficult to put good regulations in writing.

a service you pay for is not your property. and the licenses for games could be seen as a service rather than goods since they are now digital. ofc this is not nice or good, but its possible to do it to skirt ownership rules regarding 'goods'.

for PS5 the problem might be this.

you can sell a license and enable download for games but how many games can you realistically fit inside of a ps5 without some weird storage array in there... games are huge these days and wont get smaller.

for PC customers, storage is their own responsibility. for ps5 im not sure it could work the same, how extensible is the storage etc.

i would expect such things to come with a subscription, so u can access all games u want anytime while the subscription is active and install/download on demand.

the subscription cost being low vs game prices would offset the ownership problem for a lot of people.

i know many people who have subscription to platforms who do this today on PC in order to access many games they cant afford to all buy. (they buy ones maybe if they end up played a lot).

the problem now with these platforms for PC is still they only offer a selection of games, to encourage purchases (because the platforms are more independent from PC and game makers than say PS5 and sony are..)

very interesting insights! thanks!

i would investigate how claude code and codex work and suggest to build your own. it is not as hard to do as it seems (its not easy still, the prompting specifically). it can show u how workflows, skills, memory, plans etc. work so you can experiment for yourself to implement the workflow that suits _you_.

its an interesting excersize, for me i started with a simple repl to call models through model adapters, then allow them to list directories and read files within a chroot, build up slowly to also write access to files, then look at whats out there and try to build stuff you like from it.

the prompts are hard and there are some weird issues u will hit that will also help u understand certain fundamental limits etc. - understanding those can help also understand why some things dont work as hoped just yet.

for example, i had a real headache trying to make interactive specialized identities within workflows, so each stage is handled by specialized identites which have specific tools and focused context etc. theres a lot of hallucination too so u gotta have a lot more model cals, maybe do consensus between models etc. adversarial identities to review outputs before applying etc. All the stuff you still end up doing yourself again despite having programmed / prompted it all in...

initially it was all one context and identities struggled to remember what part of the process they would do, what tools they had vs what tool outputs to expect from previous stages etc. (it was funny but a big mess)

i use codex now, its closest to what i want, i couldnt get it better myself. claude wants to do too much and 'complete' stuff to much for me..

there are people blogging about loop programming, i did not investigate it thoroughly yet but id expect for myself id have similar results as my previous endevour.

edit: wanted to add, my motivation as claude dumps a lot of text back, i was using it back then. i wanted to give my models part of the screen as 'surface' to pin images, charts, and text etc on there, this worked nicely but i could not get them to do it really organically (prompting issues).

i thought i would be cool if the model could be like hey human, this thing we keep on screen while we discuss / design, like an architecture diagram. went to vulkan / glfw3 and rendering a terminal in there to get good enough pixel accurate graphics for presentation, that worked well and claude built it really easily.

negativity is usually the easy path so evil and dimwittedness go together quite well.

this sounds like a mess :') i am happy here in NL most people know the rules. occasionally you hear someone huffing and puffing about an oblivious tourist but thats about it. ofc there are anti social ppl still but the average is to know well the rules and follow them. it makes it so its pretty risk free in any mode of transport.

Only motorbikes is tough because people dont like them going past them in traffic jams :/ the last bastion of decency in our traffic xD... (lets forget about people who own racing bikes they dont count)

the make sense for DJs and producers. preferably WAV full quality.

in DSP it matters a lot, so if mixing digitally or producting remixes etc. its useful to have more and larger samples to work with

not to mention they are kind of capable of executing code and susceptible to injections which also amounts to being practically backdoors if youre not super careful about how u use the tooling

aah cool, thank you..100% missed the update :). thanks! thats good to read honestly lol. not that i use windows much but i felt it was MS trying to undermine it. happy it got restored and there remains an alternative to butlocker.

maybe rather than protocol its program. then it all makes sense no. File Transfer Program. voila.

this is what i would recommend. hoist it over from freebsd. it works well vulkan is fully usable, mesa works nicely. Even seen people playing with CUDA tho i didnt get that workin myself yey.
