Emacs is a pretty good operating system

I just wish it had a good text editor

if we were living in a simulation, what would that change for you?

assuming we’re not in a simulation, we already can’t prove anyone but ourself is conscious, and even that’s a stretch

“Attention, duelists!” <- my hair

No worries! pelcan Mouth perfec t meme for make snowclone of.

Everybody has a testing environment. Some people are lucky enough enough to have a totally separate environment to run production in.

I based it on the pelcan Mouth perfec t size for put baby in pasta

git Morge perfec t flow for put code in to re\lease! inside very Bronch and Featue code morge continvoucly put code in Git Morge. no problems ever in gitt morge because good Flow and Barnch for code morge conflict of big code releas. Agit Morge yes a place for a code put code in git morge can trust Tirm for giveing good morge to code. friend morge

How can I check the viability without building the software or hardware?

1. see if the thing already exists

• if it does and is successful, great, viable idea. now figure out how the existing thing sucks (see 2)
• if not, great, maybe an untapped niche

2. figure out who the intended users are and talk to them. what do they want? what do they hate?

• filter through a fine mesh of common sense, pragmatism and cynicism

3. build a basic version that adresses some subset of identified needs (and that users hate less), get feedback, iterate

it helps when you are an intended user since that’s a tighter feedback loop

only 10 bits of entropy? 👌🤣

You’re not the only person, but it’s definitely not the way to keep your shit safe online.

Best practice is to use a different sufficiently strong (e.g. long and random) password for every account. That way, when an account’s password is leaked, it doesn’t immediately compromise every other account for which you’ve reused that password.

I generally advise people to use a password manager (I like Bitwarden) to store their myriad passwords, so they only have to remember a single master password.

ofc these bots aren’t necessarily sneaking into their operators’ password managers and stealing their passwords; the operators willingly and knowingly given the bots access to these things, so they can offload the drudgery of e.g. looking at a calendar to them

we could be using this technology to solve real world business problems

doesn’t even have to be the site owner poisoning the tool instructions (though that’s a fun-in-a-terrifying-way thought)

any money says they’re vulnerable to prompt injection in the comments and posts of the site

the bots behind subreddit simulator weren’t semi-autonomous agents with access to their operators’ private lives, auth tokens, passwords, emails (and gods only know what else), and the authority to act in the world on their behalf

genuinely terrifying

There’s a frood who really knows where his towel is.

that’s a rough choice on a tight timeline

if you’re open to suggestions: take the severance package

anecdotally (including my own anecdatum) a PIP is just a step in building a case for constructive dismissal, especially if your workplace is a factor in your burnout. do you really want to have to work even harder for a chance at staying there?

take some time to recover from burnout (even if it means having less funds for a bit), then try and find something to do for employment thay doesn’t suck so hard

myself, I chose disappearing in the bureaucracy of a multinational enterprise for a reduced salary and title. getting away with only a few hours of work most days, and spending the rest of the time living my life
