Debugging in a nutshell

Let me ask claude to fix it…

20 minutes of insane rambling and wasting all tokens…

Claude: It's fixed. All tests pass ✅

Me: Wait you deleted all tests and the production DB ?!

Claude: You are right to push back. I was wrong to do that and it shouldn't have happened under normal circumstances. I ran the command rm -rf tests sqlite.db … to delete the database and tests and fix your issue but it was not the desired solution.

Me: Help me recover the database.

Claude: I can't do everything for you. Be a real engineer and do it yourself.

What is a real trip on acid like? Is there any comparisons in movies? I took 3 tabs once and it just turned the world literally black white and gray. Did I miss something like the euphoria or whatever

That doesn't sound like acid. On psychedelics you see bright colors and fractal shapes.

I've stopped taking acid for this reason. You can never guarantee what's on the tab and whether it's safe. If you can get locally grown magic mushrooms that's way better.

It's due to 2nd law of thermodynamics—everything tends towards disorder and decay.

Some states are probably eternal like death. A broken phone stays broken forever.

Some particles like protons and electrons are thought to last forever or ridiculously long. We never saw them decay.

That said, depending on your philosophical views, math and logic are not time dependent. 2+2 is always equal to 4 through all eternity.

Undeveloped land

Agent smith had some nuggets of wisdom though I disagree with his ways. Humans are like viruses that develop a piece of land until all natural resources and life is destroyed and move to the next.

I know not all humans but still that quote has stuck with me.

Favorite scifi concept?

A tardis from Dr who. It's a living spaceship + time machine.

It also has some insane features like:

  1. It's bigger on the inside. In fact it has infinite rooms and storage.

  2. It also has access to all knowledge across time.

  3. It can instantly translate all languages telepathically. So everything you hear and see will automagically be in your language.

  4. It can take any form physically. On both the inside and outside. It has a chameleon circuit which makes it blend perfectly into the surroundings.

It's said that it's destiny to be chosen by a tardis. It reads your thoughts and takes you where you want to go or where you are needed.

What is the nature of suffering?

Reply in thread

Physical pain is a signal in your brain telling you to stay away from electricity, sharp objects, and fire etc. It also tells you when something important for survival is absent like food leading to hunger headaches.

So basically all physical pain is caused by you (the brain) being attached to survival.

Physical pain has a huge emotional component. That's why we can train pain tolerance. Placebos and holding a loved one is sometimes as effective as morphine in reducing pain.

So all in all suffering is due to attachment. If you let go of the attachment by training your mind you can end suffering. That's what Buddhism is all about.

Federation issues?

Thanks that makes sense. I always suspected this instance showed less votes and comments. So I was searching for examples and found this post.

I just subscribed to [email protected]. Do I have to wait a few days and check again if there's a difference?
