It's worked for me for about 10 years. Maybe don't forget if it's so critical that you get to work the next day. Sounds like you have a skill issue

Reading LLM's all day makes me really cynical, and I have to suppress the urge to judge all text written in that sense. SO I get where they are coming from, but people need to consider that they can be wrong, and that there is a real person whose feelings you can hurt by saying "OH this is like LLM, gotem!"

This one is so short and only has one LLM-ism, it's entirely possible it was human, I'm 60/40 on it. Unless you are 100% sure it was LLM, please don't call it out.

It turns off if you uncheck "hokousha/pedestrian network". Based on their placement I'm pretty sure they are elevators, I wonder if they actually do have that angle.

That is interesting, I had no idea comments were used in the process. I've only been using frontier models with maxed thinking, but this could be useful on the other end.

I actually share that opinion of no comment from LLMs. I just dont want to read them. So as usual, an opinion is… an opinion.

I use it in my guest PC, it comfortably hits 165 fps in Rocket League at 1080p. Something about using the 1080 for 1080p feels poetic.

I think everyone does this. It reminds me of a possible related phenomenon. The act of remembering what you do takes a few extra brain cells, to enable the “recording function “. If you are on complete autopilot, doing a routine task, you will often forget to turn on the recording function. Like the other day I tried to remember whther I had run the dryer and realized it had been completely optimized out of my memory.

Nice, this makes me feel a little better.

Good point. I self host headscale but it also has the ssh feature, probably also insecure.

Sounds like you are talking past each other. GP is saying the harness of codex is higher quality, which I can believe, even if the models are not as good as Opus/Fable.

I'm on iPhone, i found a workaround involving having headscale set the dns using 'magicdns' or something and having that pihole join the tailnet. after that everything is mostly groovy but the individual components don't easily seem to be able to connect to a different vpn.

I remember having problems using tailscale vpn 24/7 and pihole on my home network with the phone pointed at the 192.168 address for DNS. Pages would take 5s to resolve and start loading.

Unfortunately, Pihole was less important than Tailscale and I have to put up with mobile ads.

I would love to know if there's a way to secure this though. I'm not prepared to have people constantly trying to login to my immich instance so it's only accessible via VPN

Bugs happen in all code. The difference is, anyone can fix stuff in open source. Closed source bugs are out of control and must be worked around. Usually by switching to OSS

The other day claude spun up 100 agents and took an hour to type 30k token document to tell me something was impossible to do. I googled it, found a pr on the 3rd link that showed it was possible. "You're absolutely right!!"
