Actually, I did it a year ago but I just don't want to release my model.

Uhhmm… it seems both you and @frenchtoast8 are misrepresenting the code flow. The author doesn’t return early, the handler is async and explicitly awaits an https.request() Promise. The return only happens after the request resolves or fails. Lambda is terminating mid-await, not post-return.

That’s the whole point and it’s not the behavior your comments describe.

Respectfully, the documentation makes it clear that the author is incorrect.

Author here. What a Happy Friday to see this now, as I created it on April Fool's Day. I annually do silly personal projects on that day. That week I happened to be playing with MCP servers and thought it would be funny. ConAcademy is where I put weird ideas and implementations.

I will state that this specific MCP Server is pretty useless and certainly not how one would want sexual interaction, I try to indicate this in the README. But, a beginning has to start somewhere and good-giving-game is how we roll so it's on GitHub.

[Ironically two years before, my project was Buttplug-integration in a Charm-powered SSH chatroom with BubbleTea TUI. That navigated aspects of digital consent via SSH keys, making an anonymous graph of what entities could do what to other entities' devices. I think some of that is needed in an Agent-Controlled MCP future.]

I'm not the Buttplug.io maintainer, but did chat with them about this for a while on Discord. While I have your eyeballs, they are looking for additional maintainers for their project if any Rustaceans are interested. This MCP server is written in Golang but would be better in the Buttplug ecosystem if it was Rust.

My early career was in haptics research and I have several patents in it via Immersion. My master's thesis was writing a 3D haptic renderer and integrating haptics into VRML, if you remember that! I have worked on NIH grants for Sexual Dysfunction diagnostic devices and created homemade toys. Now that I just received my Neurable EEG headset, I am working on Biaerolar Beats research [1].

On the topic of vibe coding, yes I vibrated my LELO F1 with this, but this project was truly a hand job. I did try to vibe code `a2a4a2a` (A2A protocol for A2A fun) a few weeks ago, with both Claude and Gemini, but A2A protocol was too new and it was too hard for me to teach it A2A. I'd be interested in seeing how people handle this in general.

All in all, it was fun and I learned a lot about tool-calling LLMs. That week I made three MCP servers (thanks `mark3labs/mcp-go`), one for money [2], this one for sex [3], and one for drugs [4].

Although I haven't followed up on that last AgentDank [4] yet, it's probably the coolest in terms of open data and actual AI results -- just watch the video there. Bringing custom data plus SQL endpoint to a tool-calling LLM is ridiculously powerful.

You're doing the thing he was trying to avoid. You want to have a discussion about this hypothetical emoji and make a bunch of statements about the psychology of the person who doesn't want to waste his life on it. Nothing like being accused of not liking "fun" when you don't want to do something useless at work.

Maybe not everybody likes goofy emojis, or Harry Potter references, or whatever easy nothing passes as wit for some people, and they think it makes everything less professional and introduces unnecessary maintenance. Those people have to make the choice to shut up about it, or mention it and have somebody tell them they're joyless.

edit: irt 418, it's historical and it has already imposed most of its maintenance burden. But using it when you're not a teapot is forcing the meme.

As a former engineering manager: no, I don't want to have a discussion about the hypothetical emoji. I want the engineer to put a rocketship in their commit message to have a slightly brighter day, and I want to acknowledge that someone else made a positive comment about it.

If you are genuinely at the point in your life where "people saying they like things" is the same as ... what you're describing ... please be aware of the emotional impact you're having on the people around you.

The problem was people (including management) wanting to talk about where and how to put emojis once we added a few. The less I have to talk to management the better.

All those small discussions were essentially pointless and they happened often enough that I was getting annoyed by them.

Like, sometimes we would be showing "in development" stuff to clients and then they would interrupt and mention something like "nice rocketship emoji" and I am like "can you just focus on what I am showing you"

Were they pointless, or were they positive feedback about a thing you personally disliked?

Please let me know any way you think this is wrong.. a couple people agree but I don’t know who can tell me how correct it is.
souldeux · a year ago
I'm sorry, but to my layman's eye this doesn't appear to be a proof. This feels like a disconnected series of assertions more than anything else.
