More like the local store suing Walmart for putting them out of business, but only after they pushed away all of their customers with bad ideas and flashy gimmicks

They only did that because they wanted their walled garden to be there too. Tim Sweeney is just butthurt his walled garden isn’t the biggest

In MSP as soon as they sent in actual trained people (the state’s national guard) things calmed down. It’s amazing how well they can handle a situation.

Sigh. I’m not the person you were arguing with.

The most valuable thing you have in your life is time. Every company knows this, it’s why there are constant battles for streaming, social media, YouTube, games, drinks, time with friends happening in your head. How am I going to spend the little time I have?

And some people will spend two hours watching this.

That’s a completely different problem. You were arguing if a film deserves to be long (it does if it’s worth it). Now you’re arguing that you don’t have time for a long film.

Convenience isn’t an Oscar category. A good film can be short or long, it depends on many factors.

As someone who failed a few college courses before finally getting it and moving on, yes absolutely they should be failed. Even knowing the sting of failing, I had to learn it myself that it was my fault that I failed. If they can’t pass the class, a film class, that’s on them, and they don’t deserve to move on.

Acting was top notch, film, setting, all of it. But yes, it was so fucking long. Clocking in around the same length as return of the king, and they even had to add an intermission. I liked it, but I do feel like there were times it could have been cut out a bit.

I do selfhost my own, and even tried my hand at building something like this myself. It runs pretty well, I’m able to have it integrate with HomeAssistant and kubectl. It can be done with consumer GPUs, I have a 4000 and it runs fine. You don’t get as much context, but it’s about minimizing what the LLM needs to know while calling agents. You have one LLM context that’s running a todo list, you start a new one that is charge of step 1, which spins off more contexts for each subtask, etc. It’s not that each agent needs it’s own GPU, it’s that each agent needs it’s own context.

The fact that it’s only swarming, all agile workers know that swarming means for a week or two. This is just to shut people up

Eh? Seyfried is good, but paired with maga tits Sweeney idk. Sweeney is trying too hard to be serious after rightfully being called out for being… Well…

I am and do, I have no qualms with AI if I host it myself. I let it have read access to some things, I have one that is hooked up to my HomeAssistant that can do things like enable lighting or turn on devices. It’s all gated, I control what items I expose and what I don’t. I personally don’t want it reading my emails, but since I host it it’s really not a big deal at all. I have one that gets the status of my servers, reads the metrics, and reports to me in the morning if there were any anomalies.

I’m really sick of the “AI is just bad because AI is bad”. It can be incredibly useful - IF you know it’s limitations and understand what is wrong with it. I don’t like corporate AI at scale for moral reasons, but running it at home has been incredibly helpful. I don’t trust it to do whatever it wants, that would be insane. I do however let it have read permissions (and I know you keep harping on it, but MCP servers and APIs also have permission structures, even if it did attempt to write something, my other services would block it and it’d be reported) on services to help me sort through piles of information that I cannot manage by myself. When I do allow write access it’s when I’m working directly with it, and I hit a button each time it attempts to write. Think spinning up or down containers on my cluster while I am testing, or collecting info from the internet.

AI, LLMs, Agentic AI is a tool. It is not the hype every AI bro thinks it is, but it is another tool in the toolbelt. To completely ignore it is on par with ignoring Photoshop when it came out, or Wysiwyg editors when they came designing UIs.

Now I’ll wait to see how it ends, and see if it’s worth watching afterwards. After GoT ended I decided not to trust them again.

Apparently a 1% of uptick in Linux users got their attention

Everyone keeps forgetting “if you allow it”. They show you what commands it’s going to run. So yes I’m okay with it, I review everything it will do.

Yes, that’s pretty much all an mcp server is, that’s what I’m trying to explain. The ai just chooses what commands out of a list. Each command can be disabled or enabled. Everyone freaking out here like it has sudo access or something when you opt into everything it does

If you allow it to run bash commands, it requires approval before running them:

Always has to be a group who sees the negative in it

It’s not arbitrary code in this case, it’s well defined functions, like list emails, read email, delete email. The agentic portion only decides if it should have those functions invoked.

Now if they should is up for debate. Personally I would be afraid it would delete an important email that it incorrectly marks as spam, but others may see value.

Man good thing they’re coming out with so many new games. I’d be worried about the long term health of these big companies if it weren’t for the solid pipes of great new titles rolling out
