  • I was having this exact conversation with one of the archetects in my company - top down orders were to start integrating llm's into our engineering workflows - so be it, they sign my paychecks and selfishly i want those to keep flowing - but beyond the quality and slop concerns i had already raised and were disregarded, i was realizing that i was losing my intuition about the code i was releasing under my name - it takes me longer to answer questions and i cant just wing my answers based on the intuition built during development because i didnt build intuition during development when development was outsourced to the llm - thats a liability im trying to highlight to managment and their risk analysis and also to myself for risk reduction

    Intuition isnt made in documentation (nor the slopdocs llms makes that no sane person will ever actually read) - its built by the effort of comprehension and theyll be no shortcut to that

  • I love meshcore, have a repeater and im building out my local mesh - such a shame about andy overstepping and slopping such an important thing - thanks for this psa

    Genuinely decentralized and resilient communication is fundamental to individuality and resistence against authority - for andy to try and assert himself and coopt larger authorities into this is frankly disgusting and i appreciate the explicit splitting off from him - hes acting dangerously wether he knows it or not.

  • As an adopted kid who was rescued from an abusive environment, and is now an adult, this is a pretty messed up and just mean in its generalization.

    If you are a potential parent, and your heart is big enough to let a kid in genuine distress and need be a part of your family and life, like i once was, i beg of you to truly consider the option

    Absolutly i had issues coming out of my original household and the foster system, and thankfully with the irrevocable love and skill my foster and then adoptive family put into me, i did change, i was able to heal, i was able to get better.

    To forsake all the children is bad, certainly i was difficult for my family, and maybe even more than the average biological kid (even so, ive seen some monsters that were bio-raised, im sure you have too), i came out alright, and i protect and have undying infinite love for my family, the family that adopted me and helped me when and where i needed it, and tolerated me with their love through my struggles

    If you are thinking of becoming a parent or adding to your family, you should at least consider adoption, at least seriously ask yourself the question and look up the realities and see if its right for you.

    And if, after looking it up, you understand that your heart is not the one that can take in an adopted kid, then you shouldnt adopt, and that is ok too. But if your heart is the kind that can, then please do not be discouraged, contact the foster care agency and tell them youre cautiously curious and you can figure it out further from there.

  • After i turned 30, i was rapidly confronted with consequences for my unhealthy lifestyle from my teens and twenties, you learn quickly that things need to change after glancing at death a couple times and at hospital stays.

    Thankfully i have the motivation to keep living, and that began to drive my actions after that

    Eat healthy less processed foods made in your kitchen and bought from farmers and markets

    Gym and active hobbies like hiking and dancing at least three times a week

    Hygene routines solidified, brushing teeth twice daily, non negotiable, thorough flossing and even tounge scrapping daily, fresh clean towel after the daily shower - its worth the extra laundry imo

    Skincare, especially daily sunscreen, non negotiable - face, neck, and exposed arms - brimmed hat when on a daily walk, upf 50+ clothing if outside for more than an hour doing chores of on hobbies - in the morning vit c on the face, and in the night a retinol (vit a derivitive)

    Hearing protection when at any music shows, wear them so you can keep hearing shows for the long term and not be that guy that says "WHAT?!" at every sentence. Genuinely, i prefer to go with good earplugs now than without

    Keeping hold of and scheduling meets with friends, family, and neighbors - as you get older it gets so easy to drift a part, we are all busy, and that 3 minutes spent texting to say "hey lets hang out, does thursday evening work?" makes good friends into best friends - lonely people die faster - be that family, friends, neighbors, and yourself

    As i get older and take care of myself, its easier to love myself, and thus, its easier to love other people and receive their love too. Get philosophical about it, it also takes care of you.

  • Does he try to look like the devil, or does that apperance just like, manifest itself after doing enough evil?

  • Yeah and? Going into schools as a mentor role and coming out with a "romantic" relationship with one of the students whom he met when she was 16/17 is what id call grooming behavior.

    Its not ok and it should not be glossed over in one paltry sentence.

    This guy is a creep.

  • Why is there no mention of his grooming and pedo behavior?

    Keep these creeps away from power, have we not learned this lesson?

  • Know your neighbors, befriend your neighbors, when the collapse happens you'll need food in your gardens sure, but you'll need your neighbors to think you're more than a spare pantry when their food gets low, even better if you like each other enough to form a real community thats more defendable and resilient than any single household could be

  • Gotcha, thanks!

  • What does a launcher do, what can a non-default one do (or not do) that warrents the effort to not just use whatever the default is?

  • If it was an egg or roten fruit sure - something easily identifiable as harmless - but when you spritz something from a syringe - that does cross a line to me - you could see and hear the panic in the room of people understanding omar was not directly harmed but could be poisoned - that fear, the fear which interrupted and shortened her speech is what is criminal, just shy of terrorism, in my view

    If its not illegal, then we're going to go down a slippery slope of "im not touching you" style games, a line has tk be drawn and i place it here, somewhere between throwing a milkshale at someone as being a basic assult and spritzing someone with an unidentifiable fluid as being more than just assault

  • Think assets - the main issue is that all major currencies, banks, and exchanges are deeply correlated to the petro dollar - anything tied more closely to the currency than it is to practical reality is likely too correlated to the usd.

    Think of things that could remain useful and valuable outside of the financial system collapse

    precious metals, real estate, tools, farms, service and manufacturing businesses

    These assets require more effort and have less protections and are currently less liquid than the standard financial instruments of stocks and bonds.

    however as a person who beleives in the inevitability of a global financial currency reset/collapse within my lifetime - i weigh those risks and efforts and liquidity as more acceptable than the old/current era's stocks and bonds - i still hedge my bet by owning stocks and bonds of course - but the ratio between real assets and financial instruments is shifting more to real assets

    Do not trust financial instruments that represent real assets like reits or things like gld/slv or futures - during a force majeure event they will just be pieces of unenforced paper

  • Is the process of tearing and chewing the ai art, he made actual art

  • I really recomend checking out a weight loss clinic, the one i went with was not a chain and didnt accept insurance, its run by an obesity M.D. doctor, and their spouse a professional dietician. There they prescribed me a flexible diet that has me going to the grocery store and cooking in the kitchen and an excersize plan that has me going regularly to the gym (in the beginning with a personal trainer) and weekly tirzeptide injections and some specific supplements after taking blood work.

    I've lost over 100 lbs, sustainably at about 2lbs/week, and i feel better than I ever have.

    It costs me about 500$/month for the service - cheaper exists - but the support from the professionals along with the guided plan has worked wonders, now that im approaching my goal the conversation has evolved into safely tapering off tirzeptide, how to avoid rebound weight gain (like i have in the past weight loss journeys), technical talk about how ghreline and leptin work and can override will power and how to avoid and deal with that scenario, etc

    The pros know how to focus and train you for genuine lifestyle change as well as the turbulence between changes, not just weight loss

  • I think there's a pretty good argument laid out in this video that the ballroom is a literal cover for a bunkered database
