> I'm not so sure where AI would land in the turn of the millennium Apple culture.

Instead of doing almost correct email summaries Jobs would have a LLM choose color of the send button with an opaque relationship with the emotional mood of the mail you write.


I think there is too much focus on the article and too little focus on that the host is some sort of dyi solar powered server.

You reminded me about this solar powered beauty https://solar.lowtechmagazine.com/

Hey you’re right! That’s cool.

> I never saw it, never felt it. Still don't.

I got the same condition for diesel fumes since my military service. Thankfully I remember how dizzy I used to get around fumes but I really have to force myself to avoid fumes now even at the faintest smell since I can endure it ... when people around me start complaining I can't even smell it.

I assume you lived there since childhood and got used to it from that time?


> I assume you lived there since childhood and got used to it from that time?

Yes. Born and raised in Kraków, spent maybe 5 years living elsewhere in total.

Executing remote code is a choice not some sort of force of nature.

Timesharing systems are inherently not safe and way too much effort is put into claiming the stone from Sisyphus.

SaaS and complex centralized software need to go and that is way over due.


Awesome! What’s your strategy for migration of the entire world’s infrastructure to whatever you’re thinking about?

My strategy is to not use "the entire world's infrastructure" which makes it redundant.

If enough people cancel their leftpad-as-a-Service subscription the server can be unplugged.

(Yes I am somewhat hyperbolic and yes I see use for internet connected servers and clients. I argue against the SaaS driven centralization.)


> I argue against the SaaS driven centralization.

How does that help with the topic at hand? (LLM-assisted vulnerability research)

Are the decentralized systems that you prefer more secure/less buggy/less exploitable by LLMs?


I mean, yeah you can have the joy of being right from the heights of the hill you are standing upon. But It seems like you grasp the heart of problem being discussed.

How do we deal with the floods threatening those living in the valleys and slopes?


Did Toyota pay for "Smug Alert"? Wasn't that the one where owning a Prius was smelling your own farts?

Yeah I think that Joel Spolsky wrote some blog post about Dilbert cartoons on walls being a red flag. However, surely no cartoons is surely more often down to stiff policy which in it self is a way worse red flag. (Black flag? At least on the beach)

This is so depressing to read but I can't help feeling you are right. The feeling is quite surreal becouse if I turn off my computer I can't notice the difference locally in my county. It is like lunatics from "the internet" runs alot of things now irl.

Sugar free soda?

... is an exception, and not the rule.

The abundance of "fat free" and "low fat" products. A huge increase of "protein heavy" and "low calory/sugar" products.

All these tell that people do have a preference towards buying healthy stuff, given the choice. It's not their fault that they have been misled by the media/scientists in some of those cases.


As soon as I try to scroll down on the page the commit message dissapears and some js loads:

Anyone else got this problem, Firefox mobile ...

Latest Safari on latest unmodified macOS on an M4 laptop -- same

Firefox Desktop on Ubuntu: same problem.

Chrome on windows, same

Well nice to hear at least not Firefox sabotage then. Probably the fancy highlighting of the diff or something that crashes or something ... ridiculous fallback in the error handling to abort to a error message instead of the diff.

There is a lot of "attention" to go around for small group interactions like this subthread. Like a bar chat I guess.
