Man, I got ready to debunk this but just questioned my life choices instead. Why the fuck am I glued to my smartphone arguing with people posting shit like this instead of spending time with my daughters, creating new things or looking afte

I've had negative responses to small, isolated submissions that I've heavily QA'd and semi-positive responses to longer ones. I think it has less to do with the "realpolitik" of the code itself and more to do with

I'm going to say it - I think you're just spending a lot of time around very negative people, possibly in a social media bubble. A lot of the stuff you mentioned isn't really AI (the risk of job loss from which I agree is rea

I installed Ubuntu on an old laptop that I let Claude Code sysadmin. It makes it really easy to self-host open source stuff, and if there are issues it can fix them too. Funnily enough, I've had a somewhat mixed-to-hostile response wh

It's funny you say that, I do see where you're coming from. I don't personally see cost as an issue, since I'm using it for a small business with a subsidised consumer subscription (subscription cost is negligible compar

I run a few small businesses and quite regularly get unsolicited emails/calls. There's absolutely a real, qualitative difference between contact from a real human being who respects everyone's time and has done actual researc

I've had the opposite experience giving claude code SSH/ADB access to my devices. Not sure if it's the model itself or the harness, but I haven't had to manually do a sysadmin task in months.

I was about to "correct" you but then read the username - has the best model for agentic coding/sysadmin not just been Claude every single day since Opus 4.5 released last November?

Usually I will ask the LLM to commit only the work it just did, in case the worktree is dirty. It also tends to write actual in-depth commit messages too.

I think literally anyone would stop reading these randomly long long bash commands at all after prompting Claude to do some basic sysadmin task and getting 15 of them in a row.

For installation, maybe. sometimes. (The biggest issue I'm aware of is that if you have an old version of the app indexed anywhere on your root drive - for example in ~/qa/app-v1.02-DO-NOT-DELETE - it will literally stomp ove

I used to really enjoy this aspect of older games like Warcraft 3 and TF2. You'd get the one guy on your server who was just in another league compared to everyone else, and it was so satisfying to get the kill on him. And sometimes,

I mean, let's be real for a second. It's cybersecurity. Yes, it does skew male, but you're probably looking at 10x the standard population density of Autistics, and 20x the density of trans women. I'm sure there are oth

Not really, no. My point is that a $100/mo LLM subscription is generating $5000/mo in value, so even a negligible difference in performance wipes out the cost savings completely. Same reason it makes sense to assign a team of hum

We are obviously limiting access to be read-only for anything customer-facing (it will be able to put recommendations in the dashboard but not actually change things directly) but I think the point of GP's comment was literally just to

by AussieWog93 1mo ago
Yeah, fair. If we were talking $2,000/mo vs $200 then the maths starts looking very different.

To put actual numbers on it, since using AI to start solving all kinds of bottlenecks/inefficiencies in our small business, we've seen monthly net profit go up by around $4,000 USD. These are semi-permanent fixes, and the tech is

I think we put up with Fable's occasional hiccups because there's nothing better at the moment. I use Claude Code semi-heavily for my small business, and the $100/mo I pay for that is a rounding error compared to the value it

I think the implicit assumption is that if you explained to the owner of the website what the scraper was doing, they would be more than happy to allow it. The bot was also being generally courteous, only scraping the 2-3 pages needed to ge

This is a sensible choice. Their newer models are heavily trained out of the "whoopsie doopsie I deleted prod, and all backups too" behaviour from last year. I've been running it for months in auto mode, heavily, getting it t

Honestly, this is a problem that has been solved by LLMs. Just point Claude Code to the server over SSH and say "We need Immich to be served over HTTPS". You could theoretically upstream the fixed compose.yaml if you felt like it

I don't see the AI bubble popping any time soon (as in, not in terms of physical datacenter buildout - stock prices could fall). Even if progress hits a brick wall, we still have multiple years of just expanding out the models we have

I don't know whether you're looking at small-to-medium batch indie stuff, or big customers, but if it's the former I'd reach out to Josh Lifton from Crowd Supply. Surprisingly accessible guy and this would be a great fi

I mean, if you could get Opus or even Sonnet 4.5 at 1000+ tok/s exploring the codebase, they would probably change that setting back. But either way, I think GP's overall sentiment of "delegating intelligence-saturated tasks

I read the paste, it got the etymology wrong, no? Schlong comes from shlang (snake), not shlemp (is this even a word? I don't speak Yiddish but couldn't find it on Google). Oxford also claim that its first recorded use was from
