- Comment on I Went All-In on AI. The MIT Study Is Right. 5 days ago:
Trained dev with a decade of professional experience, humans routinely fail to get me workable specs without hours of back and forth meetings. I’d say a solid 25% of my work day is spent understanding what the stakeholders are asking for and how contort the requirements to fit into the system.
If these humans can’t be explict enough with me, a living thinking human that understands my architecture better than any LLM, what chance does an LLM have?

- Comment on Linux gamers on Steam finally cross over the 3% mark 5 weeks ago:
Valve and Lenovo released a SteamOS machine not long ago, and it showed marked improvement in performance over windows. Then people have been installing bazzite on the Rog Ally and reporting 30% fps gains on identical hardware over the “xbox optimized” W11. Microsoft might have money but I’m not convinced they have the competency to compete. They’re trending towards digging their own grave in the portable market.

NYC was very windy when I visited and the direction would change between blocks. Made using an umbrella a bit of a pain. It’s more like creating a tunnel effect than blocking it.

This is part of their FAQ, copying here because I assume you can’t access it. Maybe it has your situation.
Tap for spoiler
* Why can’t I access Catbox/access files on Catbox (files.catbox.moe)? * Good question! It turns out certain governments in the world hate freedom of information, don’t have net neutrality, don’t see online service providers as legally exempt entities, or a combination of the three! * You will have issues accessing Catbox/files on Catbox if you are connecting from the following countries or providers: Austrailia * Why? - The Australian government had a heart attack after the Christchurch shooting, and decided that Catbox was a terrorist propaganda spreading website, and has instructed multiple Australian ISPs to implement DNS blocks of Catbox’s domains. * How to resolve? - Changing your DNS servers to a public server (i.e. 8.8.8.8, 76.76.2.0, or 208.67.222.222) or utilizing DoH should mitigate this problem. Ireland/UK * Why? - Unfortunately the love of footy has overtaken the sensibilites of the British and Irish governments, and they have decided to implement an IP level block on Catbox’s primary IP address, due to clips of games being uploaded to Catbox… * How to resolve? - You will need to utilize a VPN in order to evade this traffic hijack. Iran * * Why? - Unknown, but I’m sure you can probably make some pretty accurate guesses. * How to resolve? - You will need to use a VPN to bypass the IP-level block. Afghanistan * Why? - Unknown, but I’m sure you can probably make some pretty accurate guesses. * How to resolve? - You will need to use a VPN to bypass the IP-level block. Comcast/Comcast Business * Why? - Comcast Business’ “SecurityEdge” hijacking attack intecepts traffic going towards Catbox. Residential customers are blocked by “xFi Advanced Security” I have been unable to determine if this is a DNS level block, or an IP level block. * How to resolve? - Comcast Residential: Disable the “xFi Advanced Security” hijack on your router. Comcast Business: Disable the “SecurityEdge” hijack on your account. See here. Spectrum * Why? - Spectrum’s “SecurityEdge” hijacking attack intercepts DNS requests for Catbox for an unknown reason. * How to resolve? - Spectrum Residential customers should disable the “SecurityEdge” hijack in their router/account settings, or use a VPN to bypass the hijack. Rogers * Why? - Unknown. It appears to be dynamically filtering web traffic to Catbox. * How to resolve? - Disable the “Advanced Security” hijack attack in your Rogers settings Verizon * Why? - Unknown. This is a DNS based block, which means Verizon’s DNS servers are returning no result for catbox.moe. * How to resolve? - Changing your DNS servers to a public server (i.e. 8.8.8.8, 76.76.2.0, or 208.67.222.222) or utilizing DoH should mitigate this problem. Quad9 * Why? - Quad9 actually pulls an aggregate list of URL blacklists and uses them for their filtered DNS service. Catbox is frequently added to no-name blacklists for various reasons. * How to resolve? - Use Quad9’s alternative DNS server 9.9.9.10, or switch to another public DNS server

That’s a very specific and interesting exclusion, weird. Well sorry man, best of luck finding something that works.
- Comment on Recommendations for Note taking app with simple needs 2 months ago:
I use notesnook but I don’t self host, just the app locally. It has an option to insert a task list into the note, and that has drag and drop reordering. It also encrypts at rest, and has text search. Hope that helps your decision.
- Comment on Senators Press Amazon’s Bezos on Unfair Scheduling Practices Hurting Workers: Amazon’s “just-in-time” scheduling leaves hourly workers with volatile schedules, uncertain paychecks 2 months ago:
That sounds wonderful! I remember trying to juggle two jobs and it was damn near impossible because both demanded full availability for part time work, leading to their late-released schedules conflicting constantly. Eventually one fired me after i came in late from the other. My next role I set very clear boundaries that “main job” had first dibs, luckily that place was flexible enough to accommodate the shifting schedules.

Kind of a weird thing to press amazon specifically on, any hourly job I’ve had basically gave the next week’s schedule the thursday before…
