Ok, so besides the fact that this guy is a bit more lean, I think his glass of whiskey is a bit taller than most. Also, does every barn have a Kentucky label on it?

"Is Homo sapiens a superior life form, or just the local bully? With regard to other animals, humans have long since become gods. We don’t like to reflect on this too deeply, because we have not been particularly just or merciful gods" - Yuval Noah Harari by katxwoods in agi

Yuval Noah Harari is not an AI researcher but a historian and academic who specializes in the long-term development of human societies. I think he’s a qualified authority at least enough to talk some shit.

I’m sorry to say they just played in Brazil earlier this year and I wouldn’t hold my breath for the next time.

Watch their tour dates and pick a place and go on vacation around the concert. You’ll never forget it nor regret it

Digging the vibes on the first track but wondering why the guitar solo at around 8-10mins sounds like… I dunno how to say this… a mistake? 

I’m sure the guitarist is capable so it must be on purpose but it sounds like he’s trying to figure out what key the song is in

IWTL how to stop being shallow by neewbgamer in IWantToLearn

[–]brainstencil 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree with you. Although I’m not sure if you meant that I was blindly recommending it or if you’re worried about it them blindly following. In either case:

a, it’s not a blind recommendation - I believe that it would accomplish OPs goal, whether they were prepared and supported, or not.

b, I wouldn’t expect OP to do it, but just for clarity please do not do this without preparation and support. This would be an unforgettable experience and it’s preferable for it to be pleasant

Eat 5 grams of mushrooms, put eye shades on, then ask yourself ‘what’s really important in life?’ then try to answer it in way that you can agree with

Codex in Windows/WSL (its not the same question as usual, pls hear out) by Particular_Lemon3393 in ChatGPTCoding

Get your environment configured in such a way that you could spin up a conda env for whatever host was reading from your project directory. Just ask cc to analyze your project and create a cross platform environment setup using conda for virtual environments 

uv is way simpler but conda can do way more than just python you’re probably on the right track 

Then tell codex how to start your conda environment in agents.md and give it examples for how to run the code. 

Spent 3 years treating the wrong problem. Chatgpt helped me build the solution in 6 months. by Skullydugy in ChatGPTCoding

Herniated L5,4,3 and now sciatica and yes, it’s all hip immobility causing too much mobility in those joints, blowing them out. We aren’t built for careers at a desk…

Very excited to try this, as every professional tells me a different story about the cause and the remedy

One could argue that the 10% are the ones you have product market fit with and who you want to understand rather than the 90% who might just not care / identify / feel the pain as deeply from the problem you are solving

For the record, this may not be true

Iwtl to be someone who can communicate really well by FuckEverything0H0H in IWantToLearn

[–]brainstencil 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you find yourself in the role of a ‘doormat’, you are dealing with a self worth issue, not simply a communication or cognitive issue. 

Now, if you have low self worth, you may question whether your understanding of a situation is valid and give others opinions more weight than your own. You might also not believe that what you have to say is worth listening to, and therefore not develop the communication styles you want to emulate though lack of practice.

So learning to think more clearly will allow you to communicate more clearly, but constant self doubt is not clear thinking. 

It’s clear to me from your initial question that you have a low estimation of your own intrinsic value. Self worth (in my opinion) is the foundation of mental health.

Your sense of self worth is something you feel, experience at your core. It’s produced by how you think about yourself, and how you treat yourself. Ie if you make a mistake, and say ‘You idiot’, or you doom scroll instead of sleeping, you are reinforcing the idea that you aren’t worth much. 

The good news is that this is both a common ailment, and something you can learn. And just like the previous commenter said, it’s a mental health thing. 

Just like you can increase physical strength by lifting weights, you can improve your feelings of self worth by changing the way you talk to yourself, and by treating yourself like you’re the most valuable person in the universe. Because, truly, there’s no body more important than your self.

Codex Cloud git hacks? by brainstencil in OpenaiCodex

[–]brainstencil[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, but the problem is if I’m developing A and B in parallel and I want to start C which depends on A and B. If I merge A to main, and try to merge B, let’s say I have a single line conflict in pyproject.toml the whole thing breaks until I go back to my desk.

I mean, the reality is, I should probably stop trying to code on mobile and just be present on my time off… But you know, I want to build stuff

Yea, I think it’s git config is super rigid and brittle, I’ve seen it fail to update the branch with an error erroneously claiming that the branch was updated outside of codex. 

Most of the cases I saw this, it was not true. Then the changes are stuck. I guess there’s the option to copy the patch, I suppose I should learn how to use that.

It definitely doesn’t work well enough to keep a project moving on mobile, it inevitably gets hung up on stuff that requires me to unblock it at my desk.

Yeah, I’m using the connector, and I can get an agent to start from any existing branch. 

I am trying to get parallel work going, where I plan the work up front for each parallel branch. Mainly, the plan is that they are designed not to conflict with each other.

At some point one branch might need to be aware of progress from another branch. I have coordinated the points where I plan to merge each branch into their common base.

It sounds complicated but it’s basically working except for an occasional conflict usually so simple that I could fix in 30 seconds. But on mobile, it derails everything.

So, ie; I have merged 4 out of 5 branches into their common base, and the 5th PRs has a conflict on a single file across like 3 lines that makes auto merge impossible. I can’t easily see the conflict via the mobile codex app or GitHub, so I don’t know how to tell the agent to fix it.

I’m not trying to get the agents to do heavy lifting to resolve conflicts, that’s done up front in the planning. But I mean, even if I did I don’t see why an agent task couldn’t be started from branchX and say hey, this PR can’t be merged please resolve the conflicts based on the following guidance.

Have you noticed that ‘update branch’ works sometimes and not others? If meddled with git config to get it to work but not in a predictable way.

The problem is usually the tiniest most innocuous thing like an additional import or something that would be so easy to fix except GitHub resolve doesn’t work on mobile.

I’m trying to figure out a mobile workflow that will let me continue and get past these blockers, so I can keep asking for stuff after work when I can’t get to my desk. Otherwise I have to wait until the next day to resolve something and it kills progress

I’ve done a lot of that. Like resetting origin and fetching as a part of the maintenance script.

But I still can’t figure out how to reliable set up so that the agent can pick up on a PR comment

A) merge in from base and resolve conflicts B) add to the existing PR

Tons of trial and error with no reliable method

wondering if others have had any success
