Sharing a link to my music blog: crusty-metallian.net Not a lot of content yet, it's a work in progress :)

Big list of events you've attended! Definitely dump more photos when you find the time. I'm more of a casual Nu-Metal enjoyer myself, but I can also appreciate some of the classics.

It's taken me 5 years to get a photo storage engine off the ground. I've got it now, so I now have to go back through time and get the photos up. AC/DC next Thursday!

I've been wanting to make some cute fox ears, and a tail! gonna have to buy a headband and some fur tho, UGH!! ႔ ႔ ᠸᵕ ᵕ 𐅠

New app versions with apple

I'm almost done making the lineart of the body pillow I'm drawing. sigh ...

Can really relate to

I'm going to attempt to build a take on a board game I loved, from 1989, MBT, by Avalon Hill. Watch me face plant. Starting by trying to understand hex math.

How can I change an organisation with hundreds of frustrated employees, when I can’t change my own life with only one person. Does a different person run a company and a different person live their life? I doubt it.

I think so, actually. My wife runs my household, I run my engineering org. As I get older I do see the two aspects of my personality start to merge but they are still divergent and were much moreso in my earlier years.

and to be clear, I don't mean that I offload all the work to her by any stretch. It's just that I'm much more outspoken and opinionated on the specifics of work life versus home life.

Had a little help from Claude to fix a bug in my NNW themes - to embed youtube videos directly in the theme. meaning NNW can now be my video player of choice from YT's RSS feeds directly. thechels.uk/…/nnw-theme-bundle-release-f3749adf9d58

hihihi

Tweaking the algorithm. Really want posts like i.e genuinely long discussions, stay longer instead of getting burried away by newer posts.

I think it works now better.

i just got home from the day trip to Zaragoza, it's late and I got to wake up early tomorrow (・・;) How am I visibly the most tired, but I'm the youngest? I need more stamina ( ￣▽￣)

One idea that I've been thinking about is an or where it is a app so you get a new file everyday right except the app keeps track of all the files for you. the idea is that anytime you type anything it it basically makes a commit and use so anytime you type something it commits automatically after a quick pause after you stop typing.

That sounds ! Could also create summary titles with for the filenames in addition to their date so you can find what you were writing about easily. Also full text search.

Yes! Great idea. Not sure how I would implement it but the main idea is that you should feel free to delete text through out the day because everything is tracked in a git repo. 🫣

Yellow world

Anyone like James Michener?

Why did the programmer quit his job? revealBecause he didn’t get arrays.

I suck at math so bad ；⁠∀⁠；

A lot of people write so much software to sandbox their AI agents. I say don't bother. Just give your agent its own non-admin local user account. It's easier and much more effective.

I give my AI Full-Access. :p

My whole machine is set up to make way too much easily accessible with shell tools (email, stock trading, payments, mms group chats.) I can't trust it.

hacks into @swiley's machine, pulls all funds :p

So it has full access to textlog!? ;)

Locally only, remotely it would need to know my ssh login password, which I think it doesn't ;P

…

I can’t trust it enough to give local access as well! Having a hard time to let go of control.

i dont think its all talk, these are smart people that have been in ai since the 2000s, and they raise good points. current incentive structures are very dangerous long term

they too have every incentive to exaggerate because they are selling safety and/or books on the topic. I don’t believe we won’t see it coming. Any issues that will manifest will be very visible and we’ll have plenty of time to mitigate their impact.

they could be making a lot more money by just working at ai firms i fear. the thing that got me worried the hacking incidents lately, huggingface etc. if the capabilities consistently outspeed the development of safety measures, and if the private arms race logic continues, i dont think this is a good spot to be in long term

One of the perks of working from is I can brush my at 3:38 pm if I need to
