I feel like I also have to congratulate you for actually engaging with people after your made your project.

99% of people vibe-coding stuff (either Minecraft mods or side-projects) just hand-off announcing it to the LLM. Then any critique or conversation about it also gets handed off to an LLM.

It just seems that those people are completely uninterested in what they made, and that puts people off. Even your Medium article was hand-written (and it was a fun read), which to me clearly shows that you're interested in what you're making. That alone will take you pretty far.

So yeah, nice job!

EDIT: I'm also talking about people who vibe-code, but it's entirely possible that you wrote this by hand or just LLM assisted, so I apologize.

I just tried to use it to add bring up coverage on my side project from 37% to 80%.

It spun for a long time before consuming my quota and, in this time, it managed to add a coverage configuration to my pyproject.toml and implement about 7 tests, 2 of which were useless and one that codified a bug into a test. I'm mentioning this because one of the agents in the team actually spotted the bug, but it still decided to just use the bad test.

I'm thoroughly disappointed by this feature, it spectacularly failed to deliver anything of value. It created 126 internal markdown files for multiple agents though, which I suppose is good for Google if you're paying for API prices.

I highly recommend everyone to just skip this. I'm on the Pro tier, by the way.

That's really rough. Like, truly fucked up pricing.

I was going off the assumption that you could get the hardware to begin with, that it wouldn't just become trash because of a new model. If you can't get it, then there's nothing you can do.

Log2

Considering that the massive amount of data centers also need to be able to run whatever they make, I wouldn't be too worried about it if you are buying cutting edge hardware.

There's also something with the Nike logo, it looks like one of those roll-on things you put on your feet to not get blisters.

Except that the races in Wacky Races were cross country. There were no laps.

The context clue is that it is getting shittier. That's how most of the people are using, so that's the context. The fact that a blog post exists that coined the term and gives it a more specific meaning is context that is not available for 99% of the people reading the word.

So, the obvious thing is to read it as meaning "X is being made shittier on purpose, whatever that purpose is".

Log2

Except that there's nothing that would indicate that "enshittificaton" has such a specific meaning. Any reasonable person seeing the word I'm the wild for the first time today will just assume it means "getting worse" and therefore that's where the meaning of the word will converge.

It's not though. The first time I worked in a company that didn't self-host their VCS was in early 2022, and that company was using GitHub. There were at least three separate days in which GitHub was down in my first six months in the company. Way before the agents craze started.

You're right for people originally playing the game when it came out, but GP literally said they were playing it on Steam and looking at the achievements.

Log2

It builds character.

Netherlands didn't get the memo.

Log2

No, pretty much every country has credit score. Experian and friends also exist in Europe. It's just not such a huge pain point for us. Banks here are definitely not just giving out the same loan rates to everyone.

Log2

It really is.

Log2

I'll try that, thanks.

Live card games are a type of card game made popular by Fantasy Flight Games. The most famous one is Android: Netrunner, I believe.

The major difference between a tcg and a lcg, is that instead of buying booster packs with random cards in it, you buy the whole release at once. No randomness in which cards you get. Most of the time, you get the max amount of each card you can in a deck, but sometimes Fantasy Flight didn't do that (which a lot of people complained about).

Card rarity is essentially eliminated, and so is trading in general.

Log2

I also think that trading card games are predatory. Live card games are a much better model for the consumer.

And yes, there should be no gambling with money in video games. That should be reserved for gambling venues.

Log2

While I agree, it's predatory towards everyone, not just children. I don't want to upload an ID, what I'd like is that Valve did not have predatory monetization in their games to begin with... no ID required. It's genius, I know.

Log2

The person above you is not wrong though. Loot boxes suck. Steam, as a platform, does a lot for its users and that's why everyone likes using it. That's why they are popular.

At the same time, Valve puts out games with predatory monetization, and doesn't do much to curb the third-party gambling ecosystem that exists on top of it.

Both things can be true at the same time.

The dockhand dashboard looks good, but is there any way to embed it in the unraid dashboard? I don't want to have to login to another service or ssh into the machine to check the containers.

Or do all containers automatically appear in the unraid dashboard, and I'd just need the appropriate labels setup for the icons, webui, etc?

Log2

I'm with you. The one thing I liked was the village building the other guy was doing (despite him being an asshole). I wish the book was essentially that, it was by far the best part of it.

Log2

You could probably have read them for free on Royal Road.

Log2

I'm sorry, laser treatment? What were they doing? Aligning the wheels of your dog?

Log2

It's unethical anyway, your company was gambling with the timelines and it turned out ok for them. It's not your fault specifically, but the higher-ups should have listened to you and your team.
