  • @exchgr @rubenerd yeah, I've had that experience as well, though less often as I get accustomed to its limits and ways to encourage sane behavior the first time. It's not smart, but it has infinite patience. If you give it clear success criteria it'll hammer on it until it's right, and it can even do it without hand-holding, if you give it a sandbox (I have a couple of VMs, one Rocky and one Ubuntu, just for letting LLMs run wild) and tell it not to ask permission.

    100% ok

    > Cloudflare è un'azienda privata e deve seguire le leggi

    100% ok

    > dover sottostare all'ok di colossi privati per le nostre leggi mi sembra distopico

    100% ok

    Ma
    1) nello specifico Cloudflare ha ragione
    2) oggi non c'è ancora un'alternativa all'infrastruttura di CF
    3) certe leggi sono più distopiche di un big player

    Allora.
    Il piracy shield è una cagata pazzesca ed è vero che i legislatori ci capiscono una mazza.

    MA Cloudflare è un'azienda privata e deve seguire le leggi e stop. Ce ne frega niente se non gli piace o se li è difficile farlo. Se se ne vuole andare dal mercato italiano, lo faccia; un sostituto che riempie il vuoto esce fuori subito ne sono sicuro.

    Che dover sottostare all'ok di colossi privati per le nostre leggi mi sembra distopico.

  • @swelljoe @rubenerd there was a constant feeling of “it’s so close!” and then every time i’d read the diff as i was committing, i’d spot another area where it had missed something, or done it in a weird way

  • @swelljoe @rubenerd in the end it did what i wanted, but it took all afternoon and a bit into the evening to do what i probably could’ve done in a couple-few hours in intellij

  • @swelljoe @rubenerd counterpoint: i was trying claude code with opus 4.6 today at work for the first time on a hefty refactor, and it was…fairly slow and tedious to use. while it certainly can use tools to analyze and spit out quite a volume of code fairly quickly, i’m also accounting for time lost coercing it to correct its own errors, of which there were more than a few, and which a less experienced dev would certainly have missed

    #WritersCoffeeClub – 24 Dec What's ‘load-bearing’ in your life which helps you write?My health. I have been living with a chronic potentially lethal medical condition for 20 years now, with medication side-effects that include brain fog. Modern medicine keeps me alive. As an ex-pharmacist I know how to work the system and am doing okay. But I'm getting older and I'm acutely aware that any illness—another case of COVID19, for example—could render me unable to write again for a year, or ever.

    #WritersCoffeeClub 17 Nov. What role does race play in your work?The concept of "race" is a vile 19th century shibboleth invented to support colonialism and to justify so-called "scientific racism". Human races are far less distinct than cultivars of broccoli or breeds of dog: we're all one hominin species.So I generally only use it in my fiction as a handy tag for "the character talking about this shit is misguided and/or has an evil agenda".

    #WritersCoffeeClub Footnote: "Destiny" tends to show up more in fantasy than SF. On my to-do list is a hard-SF Chosen One narrative—our protag knows from an early age they're not like the other kids in the hive. Only as they near adulthood do they learn that they're a member of a rival eusocial hominin subspecies, and they've been created to infiltrate a neighbouring hive and kill and replace the queen ... Like, "Hellstrom's Hive" meets this whackiness in ants: https://www.nature.com/articles/s41586-025-09425-w

    #WritersCoffeeClub Oct 22: What inspiration have you taken from historical figures or events?Tons! As Ken Macleod observed, "history is the SF author's secret weapon".I'm currently grappling with a space opera where the adversary is based on Ignaz Trebitsch-Lincoln, only I'm having to tone him down a bit to make him more plausible!https://rationalwiki.org/wiki/Ignaz_Trebitsch_Lincoln
