CWA is the example I always point to as to why vibe coded software doesn't make sense for broad use. CWA updates are slow (but detailed) which inspires many folks to "fork" it with vibe coded apps, but since CWAs last update in Feb, several vibe coded "competitor" projects have risen and fallen.

He also lived to 93! The people who survived both bombings are called the "Nijyuu Hibakusha" ("twice bombed") and there is a few dozen known.

I think it's an optimistic sign that a solar farm is more economically viable than a golf course (even if it's an old one).

All good points, and kind of what I was getting at with "rock bottom of greed". I also wonder how long (or really short) the period of time will be from when AGI is more capable than any human but still under the control of some humans, and when it becomes able to outmaneuver any kind of constraints or guardrails mankind could conceivably throw at it.

[–] Kirk@startrek.website 2 points 20 hours ago

On paper I would agree but a difference between this and a Geneva convention is that a true AGI, once created, could in theory be able to outmaneuver any human constraints put upon it. Laws barely restrain humans as it is.

I think about this a lot and I don't have a good answer. In theory, "free labor" from machines can mean that all humans are free to work on whatever they want, whenever they want to without sacrificing a comfortable life. (ie: "I don't want AI to make art and music I want it to do my laundry so I can make art and music").

But I also don't think that having a universal "safety net" (baseline) will eliminate human greed or desire for status. Not everyone can have a mansion. A social movement is needed that shifts values and priorities to smaller, more personal goals.

And as you've highlighted, getting from here to there requires some big assumptions. My fear is that global civilization will have to hit some kind of "rock bottom of greed" before we collectively are able to move on.

Me too lol I thought What's Up Docker was for auto updates. What does it do?

[–] Kirk@startrek.website 4 points 1 day ago (3 children)

I recently switched to Dockhand from Portainer and I like it a lot more, it's much cleaner and straightforward. It also auto-updates so you might be able to ditch whats up docker too.

[–] Kirk@startrek.website 1 points 1 day ago

Everything is in docker or a virtual machine that starts on boot. Docker containers are managed with Dockhand's web ui. Once a month I ssh and "sudo apt upgrade" but that's it.

I tried to use olivetin to avoid having to ssh but I ran into errors I haven't had time to investigate yet.

This is awesome I appreciate you sharing all the details with us

My pet peeve is when legit news orgs call them "Prediction markets" because they are literally just gambling apps.

When someone complains about flatpak being bloated I always assume this is what their system is.

 

For the older/younger/uncultured folks out there they are dancing to a cover of this song.
