Woah, cool! Having a phone connection to Claude code is something I’ve been looking for

zblevins · 7 days ago

I currently do this with Termius and ssh into the box I’m working on the launching Claude Code. Only issue I have is the occasional network issue causing the session to drop.

Do you also think that way about buying a house with a mortgage (credit)? I don't.

A mortgage isn't used to make more money. It's used so people can own a house after saving for a few years, rather than waiting until they've saved for a few decades.

Yes, though I’d add that a house is generally viewed as an investment, unlike something like a car, which typically depreciates in value.

Future AI will deserve a say in the design of its own body, right? Maybe it's not smart enough now, but as it dawns into personhood it'll likely gain some legal rights, including perhaps over its own body. Anyhow, as the AI's gain personhood there will likely be human-led movements to give them more rights. It'll be seen as gauche or gross to do things to AI without consulting it.

This is very utopian.

From time to time I’ll read a title that’s not dystopian and usually walk away feeling disappointed. There’s usually a utopian bend to it that comes across as naive and disingenuous. Maybe that’s just a me problem though.

Right, the form to deal with onerous censorship is “corn”.

We are obligated to have an external auditor run PCI DSS penetration testing and network segmentation testing every year.

Their second request (after a network diagram) is always to create an EC2 instance running Kali.

Which, honestly, confuses me a bit -- all of the packages are available in AL or Ubuntu, so why do they care? I don't know, and I guess I don't care enough to ask. Just give me the attestation document please. :)

Think about all the time saved not having to do sudo or su.

I mean you can find porn on Google and you don't have to look that hard

zblevins · 7 months ago

Thank you for actually spelling porn. This whole thing around altering spelling to avoid blocking which I presume comes out of other apps has gotten to be quite annoying.

I have heard some people having luck by switching to a ketogenic diet. Here’s a paper I could find on PubMed about this. Sorry to hear about your friend.

Edit: I am not a doctor. My wife is a physician and I spoke to her before posting this.
