🌶️Codex can do a anything Muse, Bot etc can do quite easily I get the appeal in the form factor “less is more” but if you are already a codex desktop and are a power user (computer use, remote access, thread management, voice control etc), YAGNI I still like playing with the other things for educational purposes but also need to avoid tool sprawl unless there is a real benefit Related

Been really loving https://t.co/f0OCOuKkjP from @Meta and when I got early access it actually wound up helping me buy a bunch of stuff I would have struggled with otherwise. it has many thoughtful architectural choices around remote browsing ( really interesting UX modality ) and security that I think push the state of the art forward.

So the irony here is that when you look at that field, it seems like we've reached levels of intelligence that virtually no human can match because many of these security holes are about stringing combo moves together. You find one little vulnerability here that by itself might not be the worst thing in the world, but then you combine it with four others, and suddenly you have RCE, remote command execution. Humans who are able to do that are very rare.

My full talk on the future of AI & media is up! I used @alexolegimas's prompt of "What will be scarce?" to propose 4 ways that media is changing, and how writers can still win in the AI age: 1) Secrets > summaries Reporting is the act of taking private knowledge and making it public: when you get a source to tell you about corporate malfeasance, or venture to a remote town that few people have been to, or sneak your way into an underground party, you are working in a space where there is no training data. 2) Live interaction > static content We’re not far from a world where AI can replicate a… Quoting @Substack How AI will change media: “The value of polish is going to go down and the value of personal charisma, style, and weirdness is going to go up,” says @jasminewsun Related

Their words
Playground by Richard Powers is a strange and wonderful novel set (mostly) on a remote atoll in French Polynesia that follows the tangled lives of an environmental advocate, a sculptor, a tech entrepreneur, and a brilliant bookworm trying to escape the grinding poverty of Chicago's South Side. The richly drawn characters drive the story, but what I love most about the book is that it's a love letter to the ocean with prose that comes closer than anything else I've read to capturing what it feels like to, for example, dive a thriving coral reef.

Whereas something like Microsoft, they made VS Code as a loss leader. Copilot's probably operating on a loss leader. These things are all getting you so tied into, GitHub, remote workspaces, CI, Copilot, you become this trapped in permanent person and if that price rises, the switching cost is so great at some point that you'll never be able to switch.

when the main communication channels are asynchronous text and video calls (as would be the case in a remote work setup) the influence of the loudest person in the room wanes. It's transferred to the best communicators.

it's all about communication and support. don't treat remote workers as second class citizens. run better meetings. record decisions. make sure people are building relationships #AskTwitterEng Quoting @Engineering OK for real this time. Last question! What's one piece of advice you want to share with other engineering leaders looking to build collaborative remote teams? @michaelmontano @iamcal #AskTwitterEng Related
Talk to as many people as you can. Read everything available. Take part in as many virtual 'social' activities as possible. So much of what you get out of an internship is about what you put in, and that requires much more effort when you're remote. #AskTwitterEng Quoting @Engineering Question 10: any advice for interns looking for / starting remote internships? 👩🏫👨🏫 @michaelmontano @iamcal #AskTwitterEng Related
hmm, good question. much of the prior literature has really been about evangelizing remote work, rather than practical advice for either making the transition abruptly as we just have, or the accelerated transition we'll see over the next few years #AskTwitterEng Quoting @Engineering Question 9: Any good book recs on remote work? @michaelmontano @iamcal #AskTwitterEng remote work Related

A korrent is a belief a person has stated in their own words: one
sentence stating the claim, backed by a quote and a source, kept at
korrents.com .
Under a name here, the quoted block is what they actually said.
The korrent beneath it is the claim those words support, in
korrents' wording — tap it to see the record, its source, and who
else holds it.
Nobody here wrote their own korrents. They are compiled from public
statements, and a person can change their mind, which is recorded too.

About the English under a post
Some people here publish in a language other than English. Where they
do, this site shows a machine translation beneath the post, in
this typeface — the site's own, not theirs.
The post itself is never changed, moved or hidden: what is set in the
serif above is exactly what the person published, and it is what to
quote them on. A translation can be wrong in ways that matter,
especially about tone.
Only the post's own words are translated. A quoted post, a linked
article and a belief on korrents.com
are left in their original language.
