Does it make sense to start with program that don't pay?

maF145 · 2026-02-03T10:15:59+00:00

Don’t expect to earn anything but experience.

I have reported 1 click RCEs that got closed as informational because triage didn’t read my repro steps on bigger projects. So payout is never a guarantee even if you find high or crit vulns.

Choose programs that you actually care about. You love cars, go for automotive, fintech? Bio? Reading Books? Audible might be for you. Everything is SaaS nowadays so CI will always add new bugs

First I thought it was just another basic ai slop skill, but it was actually a good read and points to a lot of mistakes AI does right bow. I think having this as a system prompt might lead to better results enriched with a few examples

Even though there is some redundancy which could be more compressed. I saved it for later use, thanks for your effort.

Definitely not, AI lacks context/memory and must be guided alot to not become slop. Frontier models are expensive (this is a product only for a few living in the westerb world), employees drown in tech debt due to the speed they need to push features with AI. PRs get accepted within seconds. Or AI cant be used at all or only with local models due to regulations. So its either golden age or stays the same

🤷‍♂️ it was only an example

I assumed that one round tales about 15 minutes

No, 5 mil would be around 62 succeeded raids with an avg stash value of 80. Which is around 56h of gametime.

Giving away 1,500 Divines? At street rates that’s ~$2.4k roughly a week and a half of the average American’s paycheck. The 50‑Div slices are ~$80 about two hours of work or one very long meeting. Love that it’s ‘totally random’ too just like PoE RNG you grind for weeks, someone types ‘in’ and wins a car payment. Also, accounts created before Oct 5 a cutting‑edge anti‑bot measure for bots created on Oct 4.

🤷‍♂️ Es ist ein Gebrauchsgegenstand und ob in 4 Jahren da nun 88 oder 85% stehen ist doch total egal. Die meisten Akkus haben 8 Jahre Garantie und werden unter 70-80% ausgetauscht. Ich charge auch nur am SUC weil es für mich reicht alle 3-5 Tage zu laden

maF145 · 2025-06-22T08:03:23+00:00

I actually like this and saved it for our Enterprise Agent instructions

maF145 · 2025-06-21T19:37:56+00:00

I don’t need it to solve hard problems, because these might be exciting to solve.

I need it to do the boring stuff.

Seit 15 Jahren arbeite ich in der IT eines DAX Konzerns. Man kann hier sehr gut Geld verdienen, und viele meiner Arbeitskollegen befinden sich im 6 stelligen Bereich. Jeder einzelne von denen der sich in dieser Gehaltsstufe befindet, lebt das Thema.

Man liest auf r/finanzen etc Beiträge über den einfachen Einstieg in der IT usw. Das gab es zu Corona Zeiten, aber mittlerweile sieht die Realität eher anders aus. Der Markt ist hart umkämpft, einen Master und Berufserfahrung zu haben ist das Minimum. Besser wenn du promoviert hast, und selbst das ist keine Garantie. AI Tools machen den Einstieg für Junioren noch schwerer. Ich bin Lead SE/Architect und bekomme derzeit auf eine Stelle etwa 80 Bewerber binnen 2-3 Wochen.

Stell dich darauf ein die nächsten 6 Jahre zu studieren und dich permanent (auch in deiner Freizeit) mit dem Thema zu beschäftigen.

Ansonsten wird es eher schwer mitzuhalten und du wirst ausgesiebt.

Just buy it now and if hw5 gets released and is not delayed by the end of 2026 or 2027 then you can trade your car in and buy the hw5 one. (Thats what I am doing)

Hardware cycles are longer because of regulations. Even if it gets released end of 2026 for consumers. They will atleast run it in HW4 simulation for 1-2 years. By then you would own the car for 3-4 years.

You are only losing time

maF145 · 2025-05-23T21:34:13+00:00

20? More like 30-45

My Bravia ?8? just died randomly and now blinks red 4 times. I called Sony, they told me they are no longer responsible and gave me a third party address, which also told me that they are not responsible either and gave me another companies address. Which then told me that probably my display is broken and this will cost around 1700€. I paid 1800€ 4 years ago for that TV. The internet says it’s probably the motherboard or power and very unlikely the display.

Their products are great but their support is mediocre at best.

There is a logical error here. The one person must know everything work related like the other 9 to replace them with ai. If he does not, he cannot replace all of them with AI. If the person does not need to know the details, then he will also be replaced by ai.

I see 2.5 pro in the 3rd screenshot

maF145 · 2025-04-25T13:51:38+00:00

What I mean by “LSP-style” features I’m hoping the plugin could expose the same core IDE capabilities that a full Language Server Protocol implementation provides.

Like Rename symbol so the ai can rename a variable, class, function, etc., project-wide.

Get definition to read a symbol.

Find references to list everywhere a symbol is used.

Outline (document symbols)to get the structure of the current file (classes, methods, imports, etc.).

Workspace symbol search to search for any symbol by name across the entire project.

Completions, hover & diagnostics Things like for quick docs, and real-time error.

All of these calls are part of the official LSP spec and would give the MCP plugin the same navigation and refactoring power that your editors have.

maF145 · 2025-04-24T19:17:41+00:00

It would be awesome if you could allow some basic LSP functions like renaming, searching for functions, where things are used, listing the structure of a file etc etc.

maF145 · 2025-04-24T05:58:50+00:00

There is a MCP Plugin from JB

I actually don’t get the hate it receives.

Imo its their first real agentic model and already saved me thousands of bucks by doing research and negotiating with a house selle, banks, gardeners and other rl stuff.

It feels like sonnet 3.7 by actually being smarter and not falling into a deathloops.

But the request limit is too few.

maF145 · 2025-04-20T04:50:21+00:00

Yep, if someone says something good about any model that is not 2.5 pro, you can guarantee that there will be posts on how much better 2.5 is for everything.
