I'll never forget my dad's last words:
"Now be careful son, that thing's loaded"
Developer, book reader, sleeps too little.
I boost stuff I find interesting, and toot stuff for my own amusement.
This is my English language account. My Norwegian account is far more active.

I'll never forget my dad's last words:
"Now be careful son, that thing's loaded"
Forced to test agentic code generation at work.
Actually a bit impressed by the amount of blagging the agent will do instead of coming clean about stuff it can't do.
"Remove dependency N"
In several cases the agent edits the package.json, fails to run npm, and then declares this a success because no files related to N could be found in the node_modules folder.
The folder that never was generated because npm didn't run.
I find the way that some people understand what is and isn't racism mystifying.
TO ME? Saying (lying!) about Black Haitian immigrants "eating cats and dogs" is wildly racist and probably worse than putting the most powerful and untouchable Black American couple in a racist video as apes?
Like both are bad. But the "eating dogs and cats" thing whew! Stinky.
And yet there are these people who were shocked by the video and unmoved by the "cats and dogs" line?

"barely legal" is a key word phrase from the porn industry used to describe 18 year olds. It's also tied to "virgin" porn. To some it is 'soft' immorality. "Boys will be boys." (Why are the boys all wealthy men over 50?)
The attraction of these products is in part about a naive inexperienced person (a virgin) being taken advantage of. But also how whatever is "off limits" becomes more attractive and mysterious.
But can we please stop and recognize how gross it all is? 1/
