tayo42··on Agents that run while I sleep
It's 20 dollars a month to use...
tayo42··on Agents that run while I sleep
I don't think this is right becasue it's talking about Claude like it's a entity in the world. Claude reviewing Claude generated code and framing it like a individual reviewing it's own code isn't the same.
tayo42··on Meta acquires Moltbook
This whole site is full of tinkerers and I'm pretty almost none are getting rich off it or having their projects go anywhere.
tayo42··on Ask HN: Please restrict new accounts from posting
I was thinking he same thing but didn't want to post my complaint about other commenters becasue I think that's against the rules too?
tayo42··on Claude Code wiped our production database with a Terraform command
An experienced engineer still gets decisions overridden all of the time and has to suck it up or get fired.
tayo42··on Labor market impacts of AI: A new measure and early evidence
Not sure why the implementation is important or not. The point is the system will be triggered by some text input and complete the task asynchronously on its own.
tayo42··on Labor market impacts of AI: A new measure and early evidence
If i give you a task to write terraform or any code, you won't write what I write, you probably won't even write the same thing twice. You can introduce a bug too, we're not perfect. The output of the task "write some terraform" already isn't deterministic when dealing with people.
tayo42··on Claude Code wiped our production database with a Terraform command
Do you really want the Ai to not do the things you tell it?

It only knows what you tell it, if you tell it risky operations are OK, what do you expect?

> And to top it off, Claude (the supposed expert tool) didn't repeatedly output "Are you insane?

It did though acoording to the article and he ignored it.

The Ai can only work with what you tell it.

tayo42··on We might all be AI engineers now
I don't think your saying the same thing. Ai can help you get through the hard stuff effeciently and you'll learn. It acts as a guide, but you still do the work.

Offloading completely the hard work and just getting a summary isn't really learning.

tayo42··on Tech employment now significantly worse than the 2008 or 2020 recessions
What companies are hiring people to use rust?
tayo42··on Labor market impacts of AI: A new measure and early evidence
Your terraform written by a person already doesn't have deterministic precision. Ai isn't messing these things up either.

If your Ai work flow is still dumping logs into a chat and saying search it for some pattern, then you should see what something like Claude code approaches problems. These agents aren't building scripts to solve problems. Which is your deterministic solution.

Is identifying mammals without the letter E part of your ops work flow?

Opus 4.6 didn't have an issue with this question though.

tayo42··on Labor market impacts of AI: A new measure and early evidence
To deal with the problems where there is ambiguity in the problem and the approach to solving it. Not everything is a basic decision tree. Humans aren't deterministic either, the way we woukd approach a problem is probably different. Is one of us right or wrong? We're generally just focused on end results.

Maybe 2 years ago Ai was doing random stuff and we got all those funny screenshots of dumb gemini answers. The indeterminism leading to random stuff isn't really an issue any more.

The way it thinks keeps it on track.

This is what in praise of idleness is about.
tayo42··on Labor market impacts of AI: A new measure and early evidence
Ops hasn't been in the crosshairs of Ai yet.

Imo it's only a matter of time as companies start to figure out how to use ai. Companies don't seem to have real plans yet and everyone is figuring out ai in general out.

Soon though I will think agents start popping up, things like first line response to pages, executing automation

tayo42··on You need to rewrite your CLI for AI agents
Doesn't powershell have structured input and output?
tayo42··on LLMs can unmask pseudonymous users at scale with surprising accuracy
I skimmed some of your comments, You seem to be in the US, at least mid30s, you bought a .dev domain and run your own email? I would think those are possible leads. You really don't think you slipped up once or twice in 5 years of posting? I think an llm would go through all your posts and context of the posts to get. and that would be easier to check if you used any other social media with the same name and see if the accounts have similarities.
tayo42··on TikTok will not introduce end-to-end encryption, saying it makes users less safe
I can't tell if this is sarcasm or not
tayo42··on Elevated Errors in Claude.ai
I'm not sure what's involved with serving these llms or if the infra could be completely seperate or not for an internal one.
tayo42··on Elevated Errors in Claude.ai
Who fixes the Ai when the Ai is down? Semi serious since they're pretty big on not writing code?
tayo42··on Thirty years on, Pokémon is still a monster hit
I get the logic, I didn't grow up with my parents youth culture though.
tayo42··on If AI writes code, should the session be part of the commit?
I feel like publishing the session is like publishing a sketch book. I don't need all of my mistakes and dumb questions recorded.

If that was important, why are we not already doing things like this. Should I have always been putting my browser history in commits?

tayo42··on AI Made Writing Code Easier. It Made Being an Engineer Harder
When I've used AI for proofreading the suggestions it makes to me is to cut a lot and shorten it. It also gives me examples, never with my voice or style though.
tayo42··on The happiest I've ever been
Yeah sure, Email me by adding @gmail.com to my username and I can send it. I like to tell my self I'm still alittle anonymous online when I post but i blog with my real name.
tayo42··on The happiest I've ever been
If I didn't have a mortgage and family that would work!
tayo42··on The happiest I've ever been
I just wrote my own blog post thinking about this. I guess alot of us feel kind of weird right now.
tayo42··on OpenAI agrees with Dept. of War to deploy models in their classified network
How do llms get used in either survalience or for autonomous weapons. Using written English seems so inefficient?
tayo42··on President Trump bans Anthropic from use in government systems
So the government is phasing them out, or the company needs to get their act together?

Rarely see a company tell the government no though.

> I am in SFBA. Your reality may be different.

With my current job search I've got the sense that sf is once again the place to be. Everything else kind of sucks, lots went back on remote work.
