like normal?

but i don't use ai to write code for me -- i use it as a companion thing where i ask questions and then, instead of asking for code, i implement everything myself.

it keeps me sharp and helps me understand the lastest ai stuff.

yup, that's exactly what i do.

if anything is making me less productive or just plain stopping my job, i raise an IT ticket, tell my manager and go for a walk.

it's pocketable!

that's the main for me: i also have a kobo and bringing it around with me is just too damn annoying.

being able to pocket this thing and read anywhere one handed is so nice.

depends on the country, i would guess.

but firing because "ai makes us more productive" is basically impossible in most eu countries.

>You call someone an author when they use a ghostwriter.

i don't know about you, but i absolutely don't. either you write the book yourself or you are not the author.

as kendrick lamar wrote:

I can dig rappin', but a rapper with a ghostwriter?

What the fuck happened? (Oh no)

>The agent angle in this post reflects what we're actually seeing from developers during our private beta.

legit question: did you invite anyone that isn't doing agentic whatever during your beta?

i tried both and i honestly... i didn't see anything different.

i want tmux for three things:

1. easy splits

2. easy scrollback

3. being able to restart a session if my terminal dies

given all that, tmux works exactly as expected.

what are all these "significantly better ui and overall ux"?

great work! i'm started trying it and it seems like it solves a bunch of issues i have with the native docker.

the only problem that i have, right now, is colors: i usually have everything in my computer as black[0], so the white highlight on the bar is so jarring! being able to replace that with something else is going to be great.

yeah but unfortunately an AI flow can bring promotions, while scripts won't

the main things are:

1. pin dependencies with sha signatures 2. mirror your dependencies 3. only update when truly necessary 4. at first, run everything in a sandbox.

i do the same thing, but not for typewriter, but because back in my leopard/snow leopard days, i setup -- to transform into —.

the thing is, i never setup it again but i kept typing --.

i've been using twitter/x since 2007 and it has not gotten way worse -- specially if you try comparing to truly bad era of the #failwhale.

i've always used double dashes -- because i once i setup a osx shortcut to change those into em-dashes, but i never bother to setup this again in other computers.

so now, i just use double dashes for everything.

(shit, i wonder when llms will start doing this instead of normal em)

same. i still remember how painful it was to setup services without systemd.

having to manually deal with daemons was so painful, to the point of being exoteric.

i've been to a bunch of concerts here in the netherlands and they do the most basic checks.

last time, they checked my wife's purse without a torch (so she could've hidden anything inside) and didn't check anything on me so i got in with two 1g edibles.

investors?

yup, same. slack thread with a lot of comments with people praising it.

others were quite skeptical, specially the ones that actually perused the code.

sure. he wasn't beaten to death.

but:

1. do you really wanna get into a fight because of this? because dude, i have a family to take care, so i would rather just not say anything.

2. you can easily die from a single punch

i've seen people get beat up because they asked an anti-social c-words to turn the volume down.

some people just cannot be reasoned and the amount of people like this is growing HARD.
