Every HTTP client has always had the option of caching anything it receives indefinitely. This is not a new phenomenon.

Once it’s out there, it’s out there. I respect people’s option to change their profile pics. But it’s my eyeball seeing the image. Who ought to have say over what I choose to have my own screen show me?

That’s close to what I want. Just the inverse. That is, keep the old one and put the new one in the small dot.

nostr:npub18m76awca3y37hkvuneavuw6pjj4525fw90necxmadrvjg0sdy6qsngq955 (and any other clients),

When npubs I follow change their profile pics (and other data), it confuses me since I no longer recognize them at a glance.

Please allow me to decline automatic pic updates for npubs I follow. Just cache the old value, and maybe show me a little icon indicating that a newer pic is available.

(Not pointing fingers, but nostr:npub1m4ny6hjqzepn4rxknuq94c2gpqzr29ufkkw7ttcxyak7v43n6vvsajc2jl is a problem.)

What are you writing about?

#programming #ai #philosophy

Programming is the art of turning fuzzy requirements into hard computer instructions. Translating a poorly defined “want” into code.

As higher-level interfaces emerge, increasingly mediated by AI, the job of programmer is still the same, but increasingly philosophical.

What is it that you (your manager, your customer) really want? What should happen when things go wrong? What does value mean in this context?

These are programming questions in the age of AI. It’s less about syntax, and more about satisfying contextual human desires.

Legend

I think it very much depends on what’s being stored and who ought to have access to it. Are we talking about meme files that anyone should be able to download? Or personal documents in encrypted bundles?

It’s so weird that this chart went parabolic in the same century that saw the establishment of central banking and total war.

These are AI generated, right? RIGHT?

More like symbiotic organisms

What’s with the spray foam?

Unbothered. Moisturized.

MELT UP

I’m sorry to hear that 😓

What’s happening? This is the first I hear about it.
