Having to define what an agent can do when it identifies on my behalf is cumbersome, especially when you start to get specialised agents.

Pattern based would be too easy for AI to game, but there's got to be a service independent way to limit permissions based on role.

I am Jack's right ear - awesome you get to hear stuff.

I am jack's right hand - great you get to input stuff.

Ignored all the sage advice, lived a rather tumultuous life, but lived it fast.

Diagnosed ADHD at 45 was a bit of an aha moment!

So I'm stuck on the treadmill for quite a few years yet.

Envious of where you've ended up, but imagine the path there wasn't easy.

All the best with retirement!

Anything that compounds is better off started early.

It's not about the money at the high level, but relative comfort frees you up to be your best self.

Or so I'm told.

That still overkill?

I find it decently fast out the box and possible to manage as it grows.

It was British English.

Academia is only as good as the people in it.

I ended up doing traffic shaping in the Linux kernel because my house mate had edonkey running all day..

"Although peatlands make up just 3 percent of land on Earth, they store twice as much carbon as all the world’s forests combined."

Nice it was historically just dug up and the leftovers turned into expensive holiday homes.

In the trees they drop down on you from above. Had them do that many times.

The general consensus is to wear a hat when mushrooming in the places I've been.

About 20 years ago my gran got to the facial palsy stage of Lyme's before it was even considered and diagnosed by a visiting locum doctor who'd grown up in another country.

Antibiotics were given, her face recovered (albeit slowly).

It's a horrendous disease.

Would be great if you have a way to do it programmatically.

That's a CSS @media not

Hijacking the package manager to pass messages between models and agents.. that's next level.

Like "pssst, if you need internet access there's a vulnerability in x service" kind of messages

AI gave me the cut, the temp, the timing, the things to watch out for.

Chicken's the best to try first, can't mess that up.

After goodness knows how many hours..

Pretty inedible leathery chicken..

"Oh my bad! I gave you the timings for a different meat"

Thinking about it, much of the output I'm seeing nowadays looks like a chapter out of infinite jest.

Maybe that's unfair on infinite jest.

These were not cheap off the shelf bulbs from the local store.

3 in the kitchen went after less than a year.

I contacted the manufacturer directly. Turns out they had a "bad batch". How many bulbs did I fit?

About 50..

A box of 48 bulbs turned up 2 days later.

Not a single other bulb has gone 4 years later.

Not sure what the lesson there is. You win some you lose some? It's not always down to cheap bulbs?

Consciously labelling something as genuine / non AI incorrectly is fraud.

"Forgetting" to add an AI label is an error of omission.

Feels like the former is far more punishable than the latter.

Running a helper from the terminal, making Claude work in a working directory, and then create a .commit file has been my workaround for this for a while now.

Imagine there's a better solution nowadays, but this allows me to use dispatch building on Vercel, so I can check it out from wherever, without too much pain.
