    Don't developers configure their LLM tools to only be able to access things the user using the LLM should have access to?

    Gotta love the LP4 mode. So much music on a single disk! Remember the cool rectangular batteries? Why aren't these gumstick batteries more used in modern devices!?

    I'll 100% try DuckDB in more serious projects where I would normally use Sqlite.

    Comment #48596200

    The only reason I know and use DuckDB is because my (internal, private-use-only, experimental) vibe coded projects use it a ton. I didn't pick it - LLMs did. Until this article, I …

    Try the superpowers plugin, let it write a spec (what do you want?) and a plan (how is it implemented). Then let it implement the plan. Review each step as much as you care. These …

    You know what’s worse (less efficient) at parsing and writing code than LLMs? Humans.

    Try it on RAM and CPU. It’s slower but you can run them.

    That’s a great idea. Maybe use Claude Code with some owasp knowledge to sweep through them and see if there’s anything obvious?

    Min Release Age of 7-30 days covers the majority of potential issues with 0 effort. All major Node package managers should support it by now. Prom was the best IIRC, yarn second, b…

    I agree with this, It feels like a small upgrade like Opus 4.9 or something. It’s still pretty good though

    I’ve been doing pentesting with LLMs for a while and only hit a few “nope I won’t do that” and one “this conversation is flagged for being against the TOS”. No idea what the guardr…

    I actively support “my boss” to run Claude Code. I offered them to help and made jokes it’s so easy these days they might as well just call Claude Code themselves. I’ve shown I cou…

    I told something like “your value lies in reviewing the output yourself before sharing it, not in calling Claude. I can also use Claude.”

    You can order LLMs to use other patterns. I had an LLM recreate an app in a different stack with reasonable success

    You mean these tools you can now rebuild at the cost of a night and one Claude code subscription? You have to have an ordinarily unique startup if your software can’t be recreated …

    That’s a bold claim to randomly write without any supporting sources

    (A) I spent day and night using and making tools with and for LLMs. (B) As much as I humanly can.

    I think this is the first time I saw someone describe so clearly my concerns and experience with LLMs. I have little to add to it, except that I agree completely. Not sure what’s n…

    Not sure yet. I’m monitoring it. However, it is totally viable for internal tools, rapid prototyping, experiments, etc. Frankly, there’s no faster or cheaper way to get such featur…

    It’s interesting though because the client’s dev team basically refused to look at it, dismissing it as insecure and such. I realized that the software he had made was actually bet…
