The rho coding harness I’ve made has come along way and I’m constantly trying to evolve it, but whenever I go back to pi it’s startling the difference of what a solid computer science background brings.

I can't figure out what's leaking on my '73 F250. Shows up slowly at the back of the oil pan. It's pretty clear because I've recently changed fluids and scrubbed the engine. It was definitely brake fluid for a while after it was overfilled but that has evened out. The oil level is steady after when checking every 10 miles or so. I think anyway... hard to know with these 😬

Coming from HN to post that I've been using Argon all week and it's the first Gemini model I've stuck with for more than a few minutes. It's very good for what I do and it's so nice to read back another style of voice.

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

replied to:

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.

replied to:

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

az interneten nem lehet egy képet sem átméretezni, sem Windows alatt, a Grok is csak hozzávetőlegesen dolgozik, mi következik ebből, muszáj lesz beengedni Gemmát, mintha Linus Thorvalds a napokban panaszkodott volna, hogy a Linuxot is elárasztotta az ai

You can't resize an image on the internet, not even under Windows, Grok only works roughly, what follows from this, we'll have to let Gemma in, as if Linus Thorvalds had complained the other day that Linux was also flooded with AI

Beautiful day with local community. Lots of physical labor, all my joints are swollen, back sore, soles of my feet aching, but a beautiful day of people working together and recognizing what a special group we have.

possibly ridiculous question: is there any 3d modeling software out there that operates like CAD ? (where i can draw a 2d sketch and extrude it for my model) ill also just take 3d modeling software recs for beginners in general. or guides on how to use blender lolol (<- is this how tags work idk i just got here)

replied to:

maybe try fusion 360 its free for personal use. Onshape is browser based you can try it too.

replied to:

will look into fusion 360 ty!

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.

continued:

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.

I imagine something terrible has happened (again) and the world is talking about it. I avoid reading general news. Too depressing.

I recently made a 10 foot sailboat and took it on a fifty-mile adventure in the Salish Sea. I can still feel the way the wind pushed the boat over the water. I kept imagining the way that our progress was the sum of the vectors of wind, current, and gravity.

replied to:

Sailing feels amazing. Wind, current, and gravity are pretty good analogies for our path in life. Thanks for sharing. Enjoy your future sailing trips.

textlog brain worm! cheers!!

As I’ve gotten older, my mind has turned on in ways that prevent me going back to sleep. Hope you get the rest you need!

hey, here! I was a coder not so long ago, and while I search for new tags for myself, why not searching for new ways to connect with people too?

replied to:

yay! have a good time on here Fixed!

thanks!!

replied to:

Hey, nice to meet you! What made you quit coding?

replied to:

Same! Didn't quit, but I don't think I'm a coder anymore. I don't know if I'm an AI orchestrator, harness programmer, dark factory manager or whatever title we come up next, but it's been a while since I wrote my last LoC. What about you? Saw some Pi on your feed. How are you navigating this?

…

replied to:

I just incorporated AI into my workflow. A new tool I am meant to master. The nature of what I do has not fundamentally changed, only the process of how to do it. Ironically I don't use Pi at work (only Claude Code was allowed there), but it is what I enjoy using on my personal projects. I love how flexible it is.
