@lowqualityfacts I'm relieved, I thought I might have it!
@grimalkina take care!
@grimalkina that sucks... Can you even look at a screen more more than a minute? Migraines can be brutal (my mom and my brother have them, I've been soared so far).
Juicy little tidbit, this result holds when controlling for masculinity insecurity! "prototypicality legitimacy" is its own distinct belief system here (likely domain specific imho)

earlier today i reproduced running an amdgpu (polaris10) as eGPU on MNT Reform with RK3588 over PCIe breakout, something i didn't expect to become possible. i also got a glimpse of sway working (instead of just kmscube) but my cables are too wonky for a stable connection. after all the main quests i have to do atm i'm looking forward to come back to this, as it has a lot of potential for running more high powered apps and games with our systems
@timkellogg.me any references on how to achieve this best?
I gave a talk last night about "Living dangerously with Claude", on the joys and perils of --dangerously-skip-permissions and how critical it is that we run coding agents in a sandbox so that we can unlock their full potential https://simonwillison.net/2025/Oct/22/living-dangerously-with-claude/
First look at the DGX Spark
My notes on Claude Code for web, Anthropic's new asynchronous coding agent - I had preview access over the weekend, it's effectively a sandboxed instance of "claude --dangerously-skip-permissions" running in Anthropic's container https://simonwillison.net/2025/Oct/20/claude-code-for-web/

Traditionally, financial crashes are the best time to get tighter regulations passed, so now is probably a good time to start planning for the AI crash. Here is the starting point for my wishlist:
Companies may not issue dividends or share buybacks while they have any outstanding debt.
Companies above a $1bn valuation may not invest in companies up or down their supply chain without regulatory approval.
Companies above a $500bn valuation may not invest in companies up or down their supply chain at all.
Companies with a valuation above $500bn are automatically investigated for anticompetitive behaviour every three years. If they have not addressed all of the issues found in one investigation by the time the next takes place, they are split up into multiple companies, with no exceptions.
The rules for when companies must be taken public (and therefore have public reporting duties) are adjusted to apply to beneficial owners, having 500 people invest in a fund that invests in the company counts as 500 investors, not one.
Any CxO found to have misled investors is stripped of all shares they were awarded, any income from sale of shares, and any earnings above the median wage of their company, and banned from ever holding company directorships or CxO positions again.
What’s on your list?

Have you ever said to yourself my god if only someone could come along and stop reducing software development work to stupid metrics! If only they would sit next to some real working teams and just LISTEN to us!

@kevinrothrock that monologue at 12:33... Let's just say gonzo _something_, but journalist ? I hope we're not that far gone yet.

@grimalkina I voted no for the geography (Switzerland) and sectors (banking, insurance) I know about. It's a narrow and narrowing margin... I think it's more a reflection of the conservatism in these areas to be honest.
I personally would answer no to the strong form of the question i.e. replace all therapists all the time with LLMs in their current state.
My opposition weakens or reverses for some cases of therapy (e.g. less intense / acute cases, coaching etc.) and "tech" broadly considered (there I'm not even sure what that could mean, but even ELIZA helped some people I guess?).
@simon thank you for this! I'm particularly interested in the differences vs. the Mac (mlx etc) ecosystem.
