I think the main thing I'm waiting for in the atproto space, for _most_ applications, is private data solutions. And the recent RFC on private data spaces (I forget the terminology) is a start, but has a ways to go.

* You're just describing arranging the test setup, which is independent of storage medium. * Is your repository interface untyped? * Depends on the fidelity of your fake, but generally I find FKs to be an antipattern these days. * What

I've yet to be convinced all of this effort is worth it, compared to the ease of using a repository pattern and just using a fake for tests. And, like, I don't think we shouldn't be doing these efforts, I guess, as they may s

While there is _some_ truth to what they are saying, it is an unnecessarily hostile and nihilistic take, intentionally eschewing nuance. Often hot takes like this can serve a good purpose. I'm not sure that this does.

Alright, we're halfway through the Pantheon scene where David hacks the data center with the satellite phone. Though, the phone moving with the vibration was always the more believable half. The ultrasonic pressing of the keyboard is m

Hmm if a particle is a quantized packet of a field, then if multiple quantizations are possible in a field, then it's possible for more particles than fields?

Is that not kinda the point? People reach for the things you mentioned wayyyyyy before they should. Just because you want something queue shaped or search, doesn't mean you should reach for the big, specialized, expensive technology, w

Holy fuck, not everything in this life needs to be profit maximized.

1. This is kinda a dick move. 2. Regarding the title... you can definitely prompt them to be dumber, clearly. We know performance can be improved via prompts, from "baseline" performance. So this is a weird title.

If you ever suddenly get IPv6, it may become globally reputable without you realizing.

1) They reached out to me. 2) My answer was applicable and accurate, but insufficiently _unique_ for them.

Earlier this year I was told I failed an interview because when asked why I wanted to join a company, my answer "could apply to other companies in the same stage of life." They apparently required me to be _uniquely_ interested in

I recommend installing Omarchy and playing with it. Read through the Omarchy repo to see how the things you liked and disliked were set up. Then install arch or Cachy or some other Arch based distro and just use the parts you liked. I am co

So, capabilities/type systems. Building code architecture guardrails steep enough the AI won't jump the fence/take shortcuts.

On both points, sure, trivially, if I do not value property or the rule of law, I will not care about destroying it. But obviously we're talking about the moral value of the implications more than the direct value of the camera. Do kee

It is against the law, but I would wager it is morally coherent to smash them.

Presumably because you just put the styles in the component.

Those are fairly indistinguishable. It's when they start removing letters from words to save... debug symbol bytes or something? That's when c-style naming annoys me.

Nitor - a discord clone with a shared/federated Identity layer, but self-hosted "servers/guilds". Trust model is to trust the guild server (e.g., so private channels work as one would expect with moderation capabilities)

Looks like almost as good as JJ but with VC money.

Fuck no! Of course he can't be trusted. We know that. Nobody questions that. We know that about most of the "elites" running the show. We're just in this shitty pit of despair where people are desperate. It's diffic

Mastodon, Bluesky, etc are neat - both in what they're trying to be and their technology. But ultimately these days I reject them in favor of more local socialization (again, not geographically). What this looks like is a constellation

Let's be real, LinkedIn is full of LinkedIn Lunatics but pretty much all mainstream social media is pretty shit. They're just different flavors of shit. LinkedIn: bad. Facebook: bad. Twitter: I literally think it contributed to th

Yea, and it's a protocol problem more than anything. It would not be difficult to bolt on some kind of permissioning system to a PDS, but nothing else in the system would know how to handle that.

Eh, depending on how you're running agents, I'd be more worried about installing packages from AUR or other package ecosystems. We've seen an increase in hijacked packages installing malware. Folks generally expect well known

That's kinda what I mean by the "very useful" part of my description. For all the flaws of the LLMs of today, in some ways context management - nominally a weakness - can be leveraged as a tool.

Private channels in public servers exist. I'm almost entirely on private servers.

This probably needs a bigger callout. A user who isn't familiar with ATProto doesn't even know to ask this question and the design space from its contemporaries (e.g., discord, slack, etc) suggests that chats are nominally private

If open models on local hardware were more cost effective and competitive, it would be obvious that this is such a superficial approach. (I mean, it still is obvious but what are ya gunna do?) We would be doing the same general loop, but fi
