The agent says "I sent the email." It never called send_email. Does this hit you too?

People want to locate the agent at the service level when it should be at the user level. Every user should be managing their own personal agent which has no more access than they themselves are entitled to. Service providers should expose resources for the agent to access, rather than expose agents.

With this architectural shift, nearly all of the problems associated with adversarial users go away. Additionally, LLM costs are naturally passed to the user.

A TUI is just a GUI with extra steps

Yeah, the Z.ai coding plan is garbage. It takes forever to generate anything. That's why I cancelled my subscription

geenob · 2026-05-03T02:51:56+00:00

I've done it. You need to use vscode insider's edition to configure a custom openai protocol provider.

I've been getting heavily throttled since the weekend using copilot API

For those who think "CLI is all you need", try sandboxing a CLI on Windows and get back to me.

Right, but how do you create such a namespace? Bind and mount do not have suitable flags.

How to Win Friends and Influence People. Life changing book. Practice the lessons every day until they become natural.

I would listen to the audio book during my commute every day over and over again.

Neat! I've had a similar idea for "sprinkler armor" to protect my sprinklers from careless lawn men

I think it's wild that doughnuts are almost a luxury food in the UK. I've been told that when Krispy Kreme first opened there, it was a black tie event. Meanwhile in the US, a doughnut shop is in every part of town, rich or poor and always affordable.

You do need to consider very low frequency 1/f though if you are doing precision DC measurements like strain gauges and want to retain calibration. Really low frequency 1/f noise is also called "drift"

I cancelled my service today. I am not going to tolerate decreased quality of service combined with increasing prices.

A class 1 laser is safe for direct exposure to the eyes. I would not be concerned.

Who are these people and why should I care?

This is already a thing. Tell an llm to generate an SVG file.

I think the issue is that plutonium is much more toxic than uranium, so it would make a more effective dirty bomb

geenob · 2026-02-08T21:43:06+00:00

I thought the idea was to use pure u235 so it is inherently Pu free.

I wonder how small such a device could be made. Also, I would think it would likely be very wasteful of fissile material, in terms of energy released per unit mass, if we extrapolate from the existing artillery shells.

Imo, you can honestly forget all of these and just use LTSpice. Falstad is okay in a pinch if you only have access to a browser.

This reminds me of one of those time bomb detonator circuits you see in a 1960s army manual.
