But like the east wing I’m sure they’ll do it before there’s a chance.

Fuck this timeline

How can anyone realistically plan resources, staff, whatever, if they have no idea it’ll be funded for a month or 20 years? They really want to destroy American ingenuity, science, all of it.

Just a bunch of white nationalist drones existing to keep the engine going is what they want.

I just relied on different agents/models and kept asking a thorough prompt of “analyze the agents.md, cursorrules, etc and ensure its token efficient and enforces everything” (it was very specifically worded, I may have even asked an agent for how to ask agents for it) and just kept jumping from the 3 big models and medium and high thinking, each one kept finding little things and at one point moved entirely from one strategy to another, if I remember right.

Once I felt good enough I’ve been using it as my setup for my application and it’s been pretty good without any modifications or tweaks. Originally I decided to do this because I got tired realizing that it wasn’t honoring things I told it to. For example “restart the application after every modification to the server code” and it would “forget” to do that often… somehow now I’ve got it really well tuned for my particular codebase and approach to developing.

Seems like the progressive disclosure approach is the best for context efficiency; I wound up with a somewhat tight generic AGENTS.md, and the .cursor/rules individual files with glob matching for file names. Cursor honored those well.

I must have spent a couple hundred on the company dime having the models rephrase/rewrite or change where instructions were found, what made sense as a skill vs a rule, trying to keep things as portable as possible. At this point the Cursor-specific files would need to be ported to a different agent/framework if it needed to be. But the content should be pretty solid.

It was an interesting (and productive) exploration for me

Some companies like Kleenex or Band-aid… they’re synonymous with the product. Hershey is very well known for chocolate and probably many other products under their umbrella.

The only marketing you really need is if you see some concerning dips in sales due to competition, or to push a new product. Instead of spending billions on marketing, keep your prices low and competitive, don’t cut corners on quality. I’m tired of companies cutting costs to maximize profits but still marketing to consumers all the same while degrading the products.

It surprises me that these datacenters hum even far away from the buildings. Not too shocked about water but that also seems like a solvable problem by using dirty water, somehow keeping some closed loop system, things that people much smarter than me have looked into.

I thought there was a lot of work done back in the “open datacenter” era when FB and Google both seemed to open source their plans and tech and stuff.

It’s crazy that now more than ever there is demand for DCs but either they’re cutting corners on efficiency and being responsible stewards, or these are at some scale that still hasn’t solved some of those basic concerns.

Ultimately Plex is just fancy wrapper on ffmpeg and some media index/scraper, library management, and then native device apps. It’s crazy that something like jellyfin still hasn’t improved well enough.

At least notepad has rich text, AI, tabs! /s

However, a lot of those people could benefit from not being in a faux Christian echo chamber, just like their tv on Fox News 24/7 already.

All this is doing is delegating more work to AI handled by a lot of junior and unskilled “engineers” overseas or on h1’s

Azure is a disaster. Windows just keeps getting worse. Their branding department I am convinced is staffed with nutjobs. Someone has a fetish with the word “copilot”

This is them applying a bias against an institution they don’t like by framing it as fraud and abuse (while they ransack the country at levels 100x larger)

But sounds normal for this joke of an admin.

The government uses drupal a lot, not surprised to see them use WP, however I wouldn’t be surprised if they don’t administer it well
