kderbyma··on It seems that the age of reading might be a short anomaly in human history
The Atlantic.....mouthpiece of the globalist hegemonies and military oligarchs.....

right.... yeah....thanks for nothing

kderbyma··on Trump blitzed by Wall Street Journal for 'destroying US jobs and raising prices'
Do Canada next!!!!
kderbyma··on Give Smart People the Tools to Do Smart Things
Yes when the sole purpose is to remove the livelihood of people in an attempt to make short term gains for selfish short term reasons....AI is a weapon when you have corporate stooge lackies who have nothing but animous towards fellow humans who dare to work...and try to live. If AI was beneficial, no one would profitize it....but lbr...you know that...
kderbyma··on Multiple Pentagon floors locked down, evacuated due to 'hazmat incident'
Fire up the shredder!!!! (Psst make it look like a plane flew through a china shop)
kderbyma··on Claude Code refuses requests or charges extra if your commits mention "OpenClaw"
Claude is bad for business....that is painfully obvious.

At this point I assume you are coping with having drank the koolaid and fired key staff believing claude will replace them...back when it was cheap....because nearsightedness affects decision makers much more during hype cycles......

kderbyma··on Group Pushing Age Verification for AI Turns Out to Be Backed by OpenAI
Obviously....its always the same....USA is a protection racket through congressional lobbying....OpenAI cannot make a useful product so they will prevent othets from doing so
kderbyma··on Learn Claude Code by doing, not reading
They wont be profitable at this point...they just dont realise they are eating their own tail.
kderbyma··on Learn Claude Code by doing, not reading
This has been 6 months of constant decline so at this point I am wondering when they cliff it like wework
kderbyma··on Thoughts on slowing the fuck down
Plumbers are working on very standard systems, they have to front costs and secure work. It only works for them because enough people use basic plumbing services to sustain them. But how many have return customers and guaranteed work for long term projects?
kderbyma··on GrapheneOS will remain usable by anyone without requiring personal information
....You are a bot...this is a stupid NPC fad the past few days....Real People were not affected...If I see one more complaint about this, I am going to start reporting every poster as spam and bot traffic....
kderbyma··on AI-generated art can’t be copyrighted after Supreme Court declines review
Tell me you cant take good photos without telling me you cant take good photos. Photographers have the skill of colour, framing, perspective, and timing.... and if its nature, they also have to carry heavy bags of camera gear along with their hiking gear and bear spray etc and go out and then cpture photos....national geographic literally made its career off photos.....do you think about what orher weird takes you may have and never notice how wrong they are?
kderbyma··on I'm helping my dog vibe code games
"Historians looked back and determined that it was around the year 2026 AD-HE (Human Era) - that the prime canine species began to raise from merely companion to colleague...and so the Dog Days began....woof" - Puppers Domingo, Good Boy, Esquire.
kderbyma··on Training a Human Takes 20 Years of Food
This what I expect from a mid marketing team.....not a supposed visionary thought leader (/s).....

This is completely fallacious thinking that I assume is meant as a means of manipulating people who dont think deeply about the implications and procession of ideas that leads such obviously disingenuous intelluctual dishonesty....

Waste heat....is not the same as a biologically closed loop which microbes, bacyerium, myceliums, and plants and aninals all work in a concerted effort....

My Food becomes fertilizer....His waste becomes nothing of utility (unless they have amazing efficiencies that defy what we know about physics...)

kderbyma··on Man accidentally gains control of 7k robot vacuums
He couldve cleaned up....
kderbyma··on Don't create .gitkeep files, use .gitignore instead (2023)
Arent Gitkeep files specifically for empty folders that are intended to be there?

That is what I have always used them for....

kderbyma··on The three year myth
You sound like a dreadful psychologist if true. You clearly do not have empathy or understanding or tou have burned out and need a break. Your so assured in your antagonistic retorts that you are unraveling the very point of trust you staked to give your opinion social validation....You are lacking aelf awareness and it shows that clearly you are generalizing the diagnoses and possibily you just over diagnose narcissism because its easier?
kderbyma··on Scott Adams has died
Liar. I literally was worried since november when he had to stop his podcasting....You are a cruel individual who clearly has political issues and your name seems about right.....
kderbyma··on Scott Adams has died
So sad....I knew this was coming when he got ill recently....I will really miss him. I enjoyed his podcast, despite sometimes disagreeing quite a lot - he somehow was always someone who felt sincere in a way.

Hi my name is Kyle - I have 10 Years professionally - Ex-cofounder Legaltech SaaS - Self-taught programmer and have been coding since starting with C++ in 2005 and Flash games.

I am passionate, hardworking, and strive to do my best and drive real change. I like working with highly engaged teams, where I can take on important roles with autonomy and be involved in the decision making process. I have a keen eye for product and customer fit - and I am always asking questions to ensure that I understand new information, perspectives, and priorities.

I am looking for team where there is a shared sense of purpose - and a long term vision. I want to work with a loyal group of people who aren't chasing fads, but who instead are focused on their customers, their employees, their product (or service) and who are focused on good fundamentals - not hype.

I am unemployed at the moment - and would really appreciate some reach outs. I am available ASAP - and hungry!

kderbyma··on Employee commits suicide after MongoDB fired her during mental health leave
I think the Head of HR should face legal repercussions and have a full audit. I guarantee you that they have committed other crimes....
kderbyma··on The highest quality codebase
Yeah. I noticed Claud suffers when it reaches context overload - its too opinionated, so it shortens its own context with decisions I would not ever make, yet I see it telling itself that the shortcuts are a good idea because the project is complex...then it gets into a loop where it second guesses its own decisions and forgets the context and then continues to spiral uncontrollably into deeper and deeper failures - often missing the obvious glitch and instead looking into imaginary land for answers - constantly diverting the solution from patching to completely rewriting...

I think it suffers from performance anxiety...

----

The only solution I have found is to - rewrite the prompt from scratch, change the context myself, and then clear any "history or memories" and then try again.

I have even gone so far as to open nested folders in separate windows to "lock in" scope better.

As soon as I see the agent say "Wait, that doesnt make sense, let me review the code again" its cooked

kderbyma··on Walmart exec: 'I've never believed in the term work-life balance'
HR people are usually the least humane people on the Org chart. They often will include the worst offenders of out-of-touch views and often privileged lives whilst championing their own self interests yet gate keeping the ability from anyone else. HR is a disease - the worst of the worst .
kderbyma··on Langjam Gamejam: Build a programming language then make a game with it
I have been doing something minor - not full language - but I am working on a couple DSLs for my game engine. The games themselves are interpreted by my engine console - then transpiled to webgl and JavaScript.

The DSL is for cutscenes and scripting dialogues and movements and transitions.

The idea was to have a screenplay like language that would run in my game engine so I can write the scenes like a script instead of like code.

—

Then I am using a LUA like subset for the core game logic.

I don’t think I would want to have the entire thing written in a custom language though, as that seems unnecessary

kderbyma··on AI CEO – Replace your boss before they replace you
My Last Job could definitely benefit from this…. /s (not)
kderbyma··on Music eases surgery and speeds recovery, study finds
This is not surprising to me. It’s clearly directly wired into our emotions and nervous system. The nervous system is the key part which is being healed and so stimulation will likely increase the speed of reconnections
kderbyma··on Dead Framework Theory
It would be nice if JSX was natively supported in the DOM as some kind of syntactic sugar on components by the browsers and this would fix the cycle of abuse and allow us to eventually get back to less compilation except for typescript
kderbyma··on My chilling week on Roblox: sexually assaulted and shat on as a child avatar
It’s fascinating how society refuses to acknowledge the systemic predators (corporations like MindGeek and Roblox and OnlyFans etc) - but will constantly try to rake the moral high ground on political fads and petty crime.

It seems like the more horrific the crime - the more profitable it is to someone….once a business mode supports the criminals…. Well….at what point is it collusion, willingly turning a blind eye, so the execs maximize that next quarterly bonus —-

How much of a bonus is worth the mutilation and destruction of kids…. ?

—-

Another question…. Why do the porn industry and the game industry both sequester themselves in Montreal primarily?

Is it the mafia in the city? Is it corrupted politicians? Is it taxes? What makes pedophiles and sexually exploitation and child grooming and Wokism…. Reside in Montreal in such abundance?

kderbyma··on Why aren't smart people happier?
It’s because everyone else is dumber than them…. So they constantly see avoidable mistakes and misunderstandings that could have been avoided…. Yet they cannot make the other people understand….because they think differently about it, and the people who don’t have that intelligence will not necessarily even be able to reorient their brains for the new information to be absorbed correctly.

I constantly get demoralized by stupid people….. it’s truly horrific. It’s a disability as far as I can see…I am disabled by others stupidity….

Not surprising to anyone who has had a near death experience….
