  • after hours

    I’ve configured PAM to not let me login remotely after hours, because I just know that someday I’ll want to fix “just this tiny thing” and I’ll break production because I’m too tired. I clearly need protection from myself, and this is one slice in Dr.Reasons’s Swiss cheese model.

    Don’t let the people drag you down, this happens to all of us.

    If you mean from an energy/climate/water/resource consumption perspective, then no. But of you’re looking at it from a labor perspective, then also no. From a copyrights perspective? Nope as well. Okay, but surely from a correctness perspective? Very clear no. Okay, but there’s still the aspect of showing recipients respect and not wasting their time by giving them something to read/view/process that you didn’t care to write/think through yourself in the first place? Well, you guessed it, hard no as well.

    The things that AI was made for are:

    • finding a use for superfluous Blockchain GPUs when that hype began to die (initially), and more importantly…
    • replacing human workers who demand nasty things like wages and vacation and sick days and rights, in order to redistribute wealth to the wealthiest.







  • You’re doing the right thing by acknowledging your situation and not getting a puppy now. Been there, it’s hard. I hope the time will come when you’re able to have a dog, and I’m sure it will be a very good one. In the meantime, have a photo of Lotta, my BMD, rolling in the snow.
