<p>Fair, I am/was confused by the hosting model and presentation. This is a nice User-preparation/consideration, I guess. I still maintain a backup filesystem unaware of duplication at the block level is a mistake.<p>I completely overlooked the shipping-of-tarballs. Links make sense, here. I had 'unpacked' and relatively-local data in mind. Absolutely <i>would not</i> go as far to suggest their scheme pick up <i>'zfs {send,receive}</i>'/equivalent, lol.</p>

<p>As is always the case, short vs long term... but I think I'd put effort into migrating to a filesystem that is aware of duplication instead of trying to recreate one with links <i>[while retaining duplicates, just fewer]</i>.<p>Effectiveness is debatable, this approach still has duplication. An insignificant amount, I'll admit. The filesystem handling this at the block level is <i>probably</i> less problematic/prone to rework <i>and</i> more efficient.<p><i>edit:</i> Eh, ignore me. I see this is preparing for <i>[whatever filesystem hosts chose]</i> thanks to 'ameliaquining' below. Originally thought this was all Discourse-proper, processing data they had.</p>

<p>Right, I'm fine with humans making the call. We're not so injection-happy/easily confused, apparently.<p>Discretion, etc. We understand that was the tool making a suggestion, not our idea. Our agency isn't in question.<p>The removal proposal is similar to wanting a phishing-free environment instead of preparing for the inevitability. I could see removing this message based on your point of context/utility, but not to <i>protect the agent</i>. We get no such protection, just training and practice.<p>A supply chain attack is another matter entirely; I'm sure people would pause at a new suggestion that deviates from their plan/training. As shown, autobots are eager to roll out and easily drown in context. So much so that `User` and `stdout` get confused.</p>

<p>I don't think so, feels like the wrong side is getting attention. Degrading the experience for humans <i>(in one tool)</i> because the bots are prone to injection <i>(from any tool)</i>. Terraform is used outside of agents; <i>somebody</i> surely finds the reminder helpful.<p>If terraform <i>were</i> to abide, I'd hope at the very least it would check if in a pipeline or under an agent. This should be obvious from file descriptors/env.<p>What about the next thing that might make a suggestion relying on our discretion? Patch it for agent safety?</p>

<p>Same reason I've passed along offers for management roles and continue to ignore <i>"fiverr.com"</i>. It's less having done <i>"The Thing"</i> and more asking for it/a substitute. With an LLM/freelancers, the muscle memory, skills, or whatever I might develop <i>(along with the thing)</i> have been, well, outsourced.<p>What's more, I can already explore five ideas at once. There is no backlog formed by incapability, lol.<p>I don't understand the eagerness for <i>"productivity as a service"</i>, celebrating quotas, and lot of other conjecture I could get twisted up with... but I'll skip it this time. Rarely pays off :)</p>

<p>It's pretty single-server focused... but there <i>is</i> a <i>'Multi Host'</i> mode. One instance can use SSH to look at N systems <i>[independently]</i>. This consolidates the Cockpit endpoints you might need to use/ports to open... but doesn't give much in the way of <i>orchestration.</i><p>I <i>believe</i> when <i>'roscas'</i> says this feature was dropped, they're talking about the requirement to enable <i>'AllowMultiHost'</i>. As far as I know, this is still supported with some risk <i>(according to the latest docs)</i>: <a href="https://cockpit-project.org/guide/latest/#secondary-auth" rel="nofollow">https://cockpit-project.org/guide/latest/#secondary-auth</a></p>

<p>Hypotheticals are truly exhausting! I had a wall of text and chopped most of it off. This started out as a joke and now it's dead, thanks.<p>The failure/assumption of under-13 or whatever, as a result of manipulation, is fine. I'm not actually trying to solution something though, jeez.<p>I find it more compelling to say, for instance, <i>"x% of our users have chosen not to share their information"</i>... rather than <i>"y% have not set it"</i>.
