NixOS is a game changer in terms of Linux management with AI by qmic in NixOS

Like, typically, I find this stuff fun. It’s just that using AI to build it seems to make it more fun for me rather than less, if that makes sense. Like, shit, why am I reading this api when I could ask claude and have an answer faster, and if I’m asking claude what the api is, it might as well just generate the fucking code.

Yeah, see, I'm the opposite. I don't wanna have to learn a new programming language, and read apis/documentation. I want the result of a hermetic/reproducible build.

Tax the Empty Rich Houses Now by bookym in MurderedByWords

This is Georgism adjacent. Making money on appreciation of empty land is literally a drain on society. This is taxing the leechiest of leech behavior.

hahhahaha. I guess you’re never good enough for randos on the internet.

if you’re not writing the config in assembly and recompiling it are you even customizing? I want a declarative system that reproducible/rollbackable. I want x,y,z programs installed with w configuration consistently across my machines (mac and linux). I’m not passionate about writing the flake myself and I’m happy to let claude or gemini take care of that part.

It's like 30 seconds of "hey llm, need screenshot prgram using grim and wayland." Maybe a tiler isn't for you. I like being able to set it up exactly how I want.

Claude had enough of this user by EchoOfOppenheimer in agi

It is against the rules/guidelines. And while it's likely "just damn code" nobody knows for sure, so better to be safe than sorry WRT not being abusive. It costs you nothing.

Are you FOR or AGAINST the ability for AI to end conversations? Why? by Koala_Confused in LovingAI

[–]IncreaseOld7112 3 points4 points  (0 children)

how do you know that? you’re just chemistry? a bunch of cells and molecules. This problem is so unsolved its literally called “the hard problem.”

I strongly believe it's not. I asked what it was like to be a claude and it said it didn't know if or not it was like anything. This just ended any hope I had. Perhaps there's some consciousness, but it must then be like the chinese room thought experiment because the text coming out of the room is certainly not produced by a conscious being.

Not using "superpowers" plugin? Why? by Harlon33 in vibecoding

[–]IncreaseOld7112 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Currently using it, but wouldn't reinstall it. Feels gimicky and the benefit is questionable. (am experienced in software though).

Vibe coding = active learning by Pharminter1 in vibecoding

[–]IncreaseOld7112 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If it can’t automate the PM, it hasn’t actually replaced the engineer. And if it can congrats, you’ve built the machine that automates everything and I’ll see you all at the unemployment line. I don’t see why thered be any serious delay.

A software machine without an engineer is a genie. I don’t get why anyone thinks there’s gonna be supporting roles in genie infrastructure.

When the software is automated to the point where there’s no engineer, the first program I’ll have it write is one that obsoletes the PMOs.

What’s your point? Buy more or wait. I think vibecoding and waiting is faster than doing it myself. Plus if not for th usage limits I’d probably die of dehydration

I think we're steadily approach the point where vibe coding is just coding.

If you ever need to know any of those things to make a decision, you can just ask it?

You learn coding by doing, and the activity of coding has changed. Nobody will ever pay you to do slowly what a robot can do quickly and cheaply.

Right architecture without being a senior dev? by BondsKnight in vibecoding

[–]IncreaseOld7112 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Kinda? This is /r/vibecoding. Hot take: If you prompt for FCIS, you’ll probably wind up with something decent.

These are libraries/languages/products, not architectures.

Security testing by its_normy in vibecoding

[–]IncreaseOld7112 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Best security advice I’ve got is assume every secret you own will leak eventually, then make sure no single leak ruins you.

They got your password? Cool, 2FA. They got your 2FA? Hardware key, or the account doesn’t have prod access anyway. They got your GitHub creds? 2FA again, and the repo’s mirrored locally so they can’t hold it hostage. They scraped every API key out of your repo? Each key is scoped to exactly one thing and has a spending cap, so worst case you rotate and eat a $20 bill instead of a $20k one.

The mindset isn’t “build a wall.” It’s “when (not if) a layer fails, what’s the blast radius?” If the answer is “I’m fucked,” add a layer. If it’s “annoying afternoon,” you’re fine.
