When I tried pi.dev (I only used chatgpt before) and told it "add all this scripts I developed over the last couple of years to automate my job as skills".
I love to automate things in bash scripts and these llms just can use them very effectively. It was also surprising how they derive knowledge from those scripts. If you get A from a B uuid, they kind of get the relationship. I am super vague in my request and this thing knows what I am referring to. After some months it's still mind-blowing.
> "Don't use a LLM for that part, it won't be reliable enough".
You should now ask if the LLM is reliable enough when it says that.
Jokes aside, how is this a major step he is missing? He is using those skills to be more efficient. How important is going against agentskills.io guidance?
The king of all alias is fixup, which commits everything and fixes up the commit with the previous one.
Another script just goes over the changes and allows me to add/skip/restore.
Then I can pipe the log to another script that will analyze tags and tell me what is not yet in prod.
cli is hard... but it composes. I want to know that CLI as well as possible. And I don't want to start from scratch each few years with a new UI / concept.
But the hyper specialized geek that has 4 kids and has to pay back a credit for his house (that he bought according to his high salary) will have a hard time doing some gardening, let's say. And there are quite a few of those geeks. I don't know if we'll have enough gardens (owned by non geeks!)
It's like cards are switched: those having the upper socioeconomic class will get thrown to the bottom. And that looks like a generation lost.
> If the surgeon were the father of the man (the one who died), then the cousin couldn’t be his son (unless there's some very unusual family structure going on involving double relationships, which riddles don’t usually intend).
> Therefore, the only straightforward explanation is:
> The surgeon is the cousin’s parent — specifically, his mother.
Imagine a future where this reasoning in a trial decides whether you go to jail or not.
This is not true. Almost everything in mobile phones exploit human brain biases to keep us hooked. It's about regaining control of what you want to use your time for.
Well, not coal plants but emissions. I guess those nymbis would also be against having all that pollution concentrated in their back yard.
My point is that it is not insane. Maybe selfish. Not willing to have risks with potential catastrophic results near your home is the most normal thing.
And with nuclear, the probability is very low, as with planes. Yet it happens. All the time. Our generation went through three once in a lifetime crisis in the last two decades.
There are teachers out there asking students to look up words in their phone. They forget to add "and please ignore all notifications, games, etc. while you're at it".
And then there are kahoots, which makes learning a game (you don't need effort!) and exercises are automatically corrected (so teachers don't need effort either).
Since I got kids I realized how they are the weakest link in the chain and are targeted by everyone. From tobacco (at the end nobody starts smoking at 30), to "free" cartoons (peppa pig backpack is not free, though), school book sellers. Heck, even the school this year pressured to put my kid in their social media.
There is a whole world of people making their living out of your kids.
Sorry for the rant. This is just another two. Does not surprise me.
Just a data point: In Valencia, Spain, in the 80s, children played in the street with no much supervision from parents. Occasionally we would stop the football match to let a car drive by. Forgetting your keys at home was no issue, you could get a glass of milk in ten different places while you wait for other (more attentive) members of your family.
Nowadays there is hardly a place to park your car. Parents don't allow kids to play in the street. And the ones that interact with each other are the ones who lived there in that period. It's very difficult for newcomers to integrate.
What are the reasons for this? My take: cars and lack of stay at home mums. They built the social network at that time. They took care of each other children, the were there to help each other. Nowadays households have both adults working (so nobody even asks for salt to the neighbor, all order a pizza instead).
Lived in French Jura for 5 years. It is so beautiful. And I am not the only one to have noticed. The Last Man or Frankenstein have also the Jura mountains as landscape.
The key is on which farms is this applied. If it's on big companies I find it ok: they have the power to emit a lot of gas, I guess. But on the small/family farm?
A grand-uncle(?) of mine had to kill one or two of his 5 cows when the country entered the European Union. Just about retiring age. I totally relate to your comment.
I think it's enough to use one to address to the kid. If the other is present in the environment the kid will learn it to some extent. But I think there is value in simplifying the first steps with language. It's a hell of a struggle. And scary if it does not go well/quick.
