Just because things can be done quickly does not mean they should be.

I mean there’s things that are low priority as long as they are backed up and you have guardrails in place it’s not like it’s going to go off the rails for any simple task

Or maybe just don't play Russian roulette with your code?

Something like --dry-run there?

[–] FiskFisk33@startrek.website 29 points 5 days ago (1 children)

does dry running have any meaning on a function that is inherently stochastic?

[–] MajinBlayze@lemmy.world 2 points 5 days ago

It can, if it's passed through to tools without the llm meddling, but the problem is that there is typically a tool for arbitrary shell commands, and unless there's a mechanism to dry run these, there's no way to handle it reliably.

Are you sure you don't need the lube?

Where the hell are they? That's not a roller-coaster.

Expedition Everest at animal kingdom.

It looks like a rollercoaster to me. Maybe one of those digital rollercoasters, where you get a "4d" experience, but actually the chairs just shake about a bit. But could as well be a regular (simple) rollercoaster, they do have that bar across their laps.

digital rollercoasters

Excuse me, what!? So you pay expensive fares and stand in line for hours to experience the same thing you can at home with an office chair with a leg missing in front of a TV???

Nah, there's never a line for those rides.

This is the dev rollercoaster, not the prod rollercoaster.

[–] MrQuallzin@lemmy.world 3 points 5 days ago

Much different, IME. Digital rides generally sit in a single room instead of a whole actual ride, but the chairs/carts more around, drop you, etc. If it's something like a nature exploration (flying around the world) they'll often increase the experience with tactile things like spray (when above an ocean) and wind. They're pretty cool

Expedition Everest coaster at Disney’s Animal Kingdom.

[–] Sibbo@sopuli.xyz 6 points 5 days ago

It's probably just a themed train, there's why it looks like not a roller coaster

I am using on Mac and I have few hooks, one is replace any rm to trash command. You can make hooks for the most dangerous patterns and use dangerous-skip-permissions with a bit more safety.

[–] OpenStars@piefed.social 15 points 5 days ago (3 children)

I truly hope that there is nothing irreplaceable on that machine, bc you might be about to FAAFO.

[–] moseschrute@lemmy.world 2 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago)

I think you’re only supposed to use the dangerous skip thing when it’s running inside a docker container
