"If you don't think of yourself years ago as an idiot... Perhaps it is because you still are one." In that spirit I started to write down my own thoughts. I think I am meant to call it a blog. Years from now I can read my old words and cringe at them. www.gruntsoft.com/words/

thinking on deploying excalidraw on my homeserver, so I can store drawings without bothering with export/import. Yes, excalidraw+ for $7/mo; but nowadays I pay only one sub - for Claude; everything else is personal software.

Well, done, Claude did while I drove a car. It even added save/open file from the server (stored in SQLite). Deployed on my homelab server.

Lots of slop PRs at $WORK. Trying Claude Tag, works well but token-billed, daily usage over 100€ for three sessions.

replied to:

ouch, that's a month for virtually unlimited Codex. why so expensive?

replied to:

Anthropic uses token billing for Claude Tag. But it’s different from CC - it’s an AI Colleague, so I’m asking PM and EM to talk to it instead of to me - accountability switches.

replied to:

so it's expensive and you're left with dealing with the PRs others generate for you?

…

replied to:

No, Claude Tag’s PRs are my team’s. Slop PRs come from outside of the team. Anyways, dozens PRs per day is draining energy. Don’t want to review anything anymore.

Maybe validity to “distance makes the heart grow fonder.” Scarcity is valuable.

replied to:

Too true.

replied to:

Similar with having access to so much critically acclaimed media, but they are so emotionally or intellectually draining that I find myself rewatching ol' familiars. Availability seems just one aspect, and perhaps not even the most limiting factor. Maybe most people have a "limit" on number of "lives", as in number of times you fall in love, change, get inspired, connect, etc..

I finally bit the bullet and have started to use dictation software more often, even outside of just my prompts. I really like it. Hopefully, computer use becomes much smoother soon. I would love to be able to control my computer with just my voice.
