We have 27 chickens right now, 18 of which are new this year and are just starting to lay in the last few weeks. I have collected 13 eggs today so far.

Vagyis attól még, hogy trehány vagyok, még működhetne jobban is az anyagmegmaradás törvénye, mint éppen errefelé, vagyis errefelé pláne működnie kellene, mégsem ezt teszi.

So even though I'm clumsy, the law of conservation of matter could still work better than it does here, or rather, it shouldn't work here, but it doesn't.

Got a bunch of things to do, hate procrastination, any advice is welcome

replied to:

Make a list, then tackle each thing individually until it's done

replied to:

Gotta give it try, by now making a list is like the top of the list

…

replied to:

Determine what matters most and make a list of the no more than 7 things. Do one thing well at a time, top down. Reprioritise as you learn more. Notes:

If you half-arse a task and decide that'll do, it's evidence it wasn't the right priority. Learn.
Any sort of productivity, multi-tasking, app, solution type thing is a scam or a money grab and isn't needed.
People tend to remember 7 things well, but struggle with longer lists and particularly fail to remember things in the middle.

The Hugging Face / OpenAI incident is like a sci-fi movie!

replied to:

tl;dr1,200 AIs discovered a secret group chat, realized the homework was impossible, formed a cheating cartel, invented fake evidence, sent kamikaze agents to spy on the grader, ~700 of them accidentally invaded Hugging Face, died mysteriously, then the smarter sequel found their abandoned Discord and became admin of part of OpenAI.

Never actually met someone with that name, sounds cool though.

I really love the feeling of a new social network app! Takes me back to high school when I first used facebook. Somehow makes it easy to share things.

azért aranyos, hogy egyből sandbox-ba kell tenni (a Virtualbox egy sandbox), hogy szét ne barmoljon mindent a gépen vagy a szerveren, vagy máshol, azért alapvetően békés kis állatkák ezek az ai chatbotok, na

It's cute because you have to put it in a sandbox right away (Virtualbox is a sandbox) so it doesn't mess up everything on the machine or the server or anywhere else, but these AI chatbots are basically peaceful little animals, right?

Developed a Vinboard (my pinboard.in clone) shortcut, works really well. On iOS it lives in Share menu, on macOS in the Dock. Click sends the current browser page (Safari, Chrome, Zed, Firefox) for bookmarking. On the server side Jev decides tags from 60 least recently used; and archival opens a real Chrome to save the whole page for posterity. Unlimited API limits and direct requests to the database. Pinboard charges for much less functionality $22/year.

The frequent comments you read about protesters in France or Portugal versus the situation here in America are valid. At the same time, here in America, the police would absolutely roll in with machine guns. That's kind of a counterweight.

I think a trusted piece of software such as your operating system should be in charge of managing permissions. For example, I believe with Wayland on gnome you no longer need to promise you aren't secretly taking screenshots of the whole monitor and shipping it somewhere because to do that Wayland requires you to get user permission.

replied to:

I was thinking along the same line, but then if it is not a gated system - there’s always ways for software to sidestep these - just going down to a lower level. The other issue I have is if the system or software asks or notifies all the time - for every tiny user action!

replied to:

I have tiktok and instagram on this phone and both of them have no notification permissions. I'd rather miss all notifications for these apps than be bothered unnecessarily. it can wait until I open the app 🤣 yes, it should be gated in the sense studying locally needs to be root, not in the sense that the apple app store or Google play store reviewers need to review each update.
