@puppygirlhornypost2 AI... assisted... terminal. W. T. F.?!? That's got to be the dumbest use for an AI I've heard of yet. (at least it's just stupid and not maliciously evil like using AI to determine military targets)

@StarkRG @puppygirlhornypost2 I had a go with Wave terminal out of morbid curiosity and it was every bit as useful as expected -- uninstalled 5 mins later
Show threadStarkRGMay 26
@eaterofsnacks @puppygirlhornypost2 The main reason to use a terminal is pretty much the same reason some people prefer manual shift cars, you get more immediate, direct, and precise control over what's happening. But the whole point of AI is that it's fuzzy and indirect, pretty much the exact opposite of terminals. And to top it all off, they're highly fallible, why use a tool that's at least as mistake-prone as you are?
Show threadEaterOfSnacksMay 26
@StarkRG @puppygirlhornypost2 Well exactly. I'm a fan of terminals for all the reasons you mention. Like I said, it was morbid curiosity alone! 😁

Same here, but also if I accidentally create a new folder I fix it using rmdir, not rm -rf (so an accidental rmdir on ~ will fail, because it's not empty).

@yacc143 @puppygirlhornypost2 My fear when invoking `rm` in automated scripts is `$ rm -rf $HOME/"${targetPath}"` and `targetPath` somehow being unset or blank, thus resolving to `rm -rf $HOME/`. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qzZLvw2AdvM

- logging http accesses to PostgreSQL is not that great an idea (yes I spent my time in-between scaling the f%cking db infrastructure)
- and no, DELETE has no right of existence in routine operations on production databases. (Because you either end up with counters on your website suddenly going down when users

"delete" their account, and the business people tend to go into crisis mode on such events, or you end up with dangling events, oh that was uploaded by anonymous, and watched a gazillion time by anonymous, but we don't know if it were one anonymous that watched it a gazillion time, or a gazillion anonymouses who watched it each once).

So yes, I'm literally very cautious of "automated" deletes in production processes.

@puppygirlhornypost2 So I was JUST telling someone an hour ago about how this was my first and biggest CLI screwup. Using Solaris back in 1999 and in a fit of pique I tried to delete all the ~ files left behind by a vi session and ended up accidentally deleting my home directory instead. I mean most of it because I realized like 10 seconds in when it took so long that something was wrong, and then it dawned on me.

Thankfully our sysadmin just went tappity-tap and it all came back from a backup.

@puppygirlhornypost2 there seems to be a bit of an unfortunate interaction between the Unix terminal's "the user knows what they are doing and I will not attempt to prevent them doing anything silly" design with the LLM's "I will output something that approximately resembles what you asked for" tendencies.
