If only they were willing to change their affiliations as easily as they do change their hair color.

The only solution that I've found to work, somewhat, is to plan with it to design the APIs exactly how you want it, atleast the public facing ones. It still does all kinds of mess in the functions but those are easier to cleanup on the next iteration cycle. If you let it design everything, it'll definitely go overboard.

I have come to the same conclusion. I'm thinking it more like "raising" these subagents via iterations and tuning until they are "grown-up" and basically become reliable. Thats why even though I can setup a team pretty easily via claude code, I don't see the benefit until the would be team members are reliable. Once the main subagents are solid, we can move on to build a team by pointing them to these subagents - atleast thats what I'm thinking in my one-step-at-time slow way. Most probably overcautious and maybe even wrong but if I'm seeing a subagent doing weird stuff across many executions, I can't build much in terms of layers on top of it.

Nationalisation is an option worse than the advantage of having the companies at their whim and command while keeping them around as a separate entities for blame-gaming and convenience based distancing.

I am sick and tired of these teenagers and their sharing of bash oneliners on insta.

Obviously the solution is to ban their use of all social media so those pesky bash oneliners can't be shared in the first place!

Absolutely not, that would prevent profits to big political donors. Instead we should ban bash oneliners, or ID gate them. No loops or pipes (etc) unless you've handed over government issued ID.

Then we can build a centralized database of government IDs and use them to make deepfakes, send spam in the mail and perform identity theft. Genius!

I tried to sign-up with Hetzner instance last night - after all the signup etc, it expects me to enter my passport information for "verification". Fuck that.

I re-tried Firefox couple of weeks ago, in the latest episode of a series of tries to "finally" migrating to it. Same CPU fans blowing like jet engines randomly. None of that with Vivaldi (which is anyway all Chromium/Blink underneath) - so came back to it.

Firefox has so many nice things like containers but basic performance issues are still unresolved.

I think that depends on what sites you are using/things you are doing with it. The only time the fans turn on for me is one specific dashboard in Home Assistant. Nothing else I connect to even moves the needle on temperature/CPU use

I first touched a computer after completing my university degree and I still remember the happiness I felt by simply running a DOS command and seeing the expected output.

It does't matter when the plug finds the socket - it is always electric.

This is really beautiful.

I went through the blog. I started using Claude Code about 2 weeks ago and my approach is practically the same. It just felt logical. I think there are a bunch of us who have landed on this approach and most are just quietly seeing the benefits.

This is what the blog writer wrote in email informing about the vulnerability:

> I am offering a window of 30 days from today the 28th of April 2025 for [the organization] to mitigate or resolve the vulnerability before I consider any public disclosure.

> Please note that I am fully available to assist your IT team with technical details, verification steps and recommendations from a security perspective.

He is offering a window of 30 days and that he will consider public disclosure only after that window. He didn't say that this was the full and final window. He didn't say that he will absolutely and definitely disclose. He is being more than co-operative by willing to offer his time and knowledge in this matter, even if he doesn't need to.

If they are not Google, then instead of push-and-shove legal threats, they could have been forthcoming and said something like, "We are not an IT company with expertise in this matter. We will definitely need more than 30 days to resolve this matter. Please let us know if you are agreeable to a longer time Window of <n days> before you consider disclosure."

To top it all, they ask to keep this matter away from the authorities despite:

> The Maltese National Coordinated Vulnerability Disclosure Policy (NCVDP) explicitly requires that confirmed vulnerabilities be reported to both the responsible organization and CSIRTMalta.

So he followed the law and that is bad, how?

> I don’t think cc’ing the national agency was that necessary given the scale of the problem that necessary given the scale of the problem.

Children's addresses were publicly accessible via the vulnerability - does the urgency solely require the matter to be large scale to be taken seriously?

> Maybe should’ve just given them a call and have had a friendly chat over the phone. You would’ve helped them and stayed friends.

The same could be said about the company. Why are only people expected to be nice and friendly while it is fine for companies to issue legal threats?
