a more authoritative source (aka a tweet) woudl be nice.

i've sung since discovering choir and acapella at age 16. gave it up right after college. never thought i'd return to it again.

discovery this year is despite being almost 40 and obviously busy/an engineer/founder who will never make it professionally, you CAN still find outlets to indulge in the creative side and perform for others! https://x.com/swyx/status/2043217991589102027

its scary but it stretches you in new ways and yeah, it keeps you young and optimistic that you can do things you've never done!

It's interesting how many people I know who jump instantly from hobby to thinking about hustling, Etsy, Patreon, fame, etc. and the thought that they'll never be good enough to go pro is a real barrier. You don't need to monetize your joy.

err ok but i wasnt saying to monetize (not that you were saying it)

I was agreeing with you! Though I can see how I came on a little strong there.

agree. it breaks a lot, integrations are hard, it turns out, and openclaw can only fix itself so much before you need human intervention and it just stops

just so we know the consequences - is ban permanent? is there an appeals processes?

When banned it'll give you means to reach out to support, you can claim ignorance and get unbanned. I've gone through this, having done some whatsapp automation myself, YMMV though.

very helpful, thanks. good on WA for providing actually working support. people will fuck up when testing legitimate stuff, it happens.

you make fun of it but i kind of like that the security community has just embraced this kinda old school hokey term. its a short hand. leave them be.

Incidentally, I recently learned the origin of the term. Cyber - short for cybernetic - is from the greek κυβερνήτης (kybernetes), meaning helmsman. The original use of cybernetics is in the context of automated control systems, so steering a rudder was a good analogy. It is also the origin for the name k8s.

In the early days of socialization on the Internet it had a very different meaning!!

In my headcanon, I still read k8s as "network of cubes", as in Borg cubes, as Kubernetes itself is a poor man's Borg (as in the thing that Google runs on, named after Star Trek Borg, known for cube-shaped ships referred to as "Borg cubes"). The whole kyber thing sounds like an explanation after the fact, to detach from the Collective legacy.

Have they ever released the full internal Borg toolset and software ?

a/s/l?

> Heroku Workflow The shell helpers use either an explicit app name argument or HEROKU_APP_NAME.

nice to see heroku still alive...

I love heroku, death to vercel

Considering moving my team to Vercel. Why?

also people overpay for skew protection and you can make consistent money selling skews (until that one time it blows up on you)

i think the intended target of the software matters - Zechner needs to make a small tasteful core agent that others can extend/depend on, whereas Lopopolo needs to ship a large 1M LOC enterprise app with a tiny team of 5

the code conclusions kinda fall out of those constraints

Thanks Swyx! I agree, I mentioned in the end where I sit on the continuum, but I don't maintain any hugely critical production code.

Do you think the intended target will matter as much as it does in a year?

no it should matter less over time

you dont understand why zuck, who paid $1B for instagram when they had no revenue and 7 employees because he is paranoid about platform shifts, decided to join the race for (what is seeming highly possibly) the biggest platform shift in human history?

He also tried and failed to buy Snapchat, and then copied their feature on all their big products: Instagram, Facebook and even WhatsApp.

The way you put it, I understand it less. lol

hmm the repo doesnt mention this at all but this name and problem domain brings up HippoRAG https://arxiv.org/abs/2405.14831 <- any relation? seems odd to miss out this exactly similarly named paper with related techniques.
