For Caude Code, Antigrav, etc, do people really just let an LLM loose on their own personal system? I feel like these should run in a cloud enviroment, or at least on some specific machine where I don't care what it does.

That's also why I don't use these tools that much. You have big AI companies, known for harvesting humongous amount of data, illegally, not disclosing datasets. And they you give them control of your computer, without any way to cleanly audit what's going in and out. It's seriously insane to me that most developers seem to not care about that. Like, we've all been educated to not push any critical info to a server (p…

We went 10 years backward security wise since the arrival of GPT 3.5 :/

Can't speak to Claude Code/Desktop, but any of the products that are VS Code forks have workspace restrictions on what folders they're allowed to access (for better and worse). Other products (like Warp terminal) that can give access to the whole filesystem come with pre-set strict deny/allow lists on what commands are allowed to be executed. It's possible to remove some of these restrictions in these tools, or to op…

except that if you give shell access, you aren't really protected from Gemini 2.5 Pro going "mad" and starting rm -rf stuff or writing some shady Perl scripts.

I'm getting grifted hard by Gemini 3 at this point.

I've been working with the chat bot online on a local web application for about 4 days now.

It's markedly worse than Claude at this point. It does not listen to any new instructions and insists on doing wrong changes it thought up of 20 messages ago that I already repeatedly stated were bad.

I personally am not of the belief that anyone making under $90k a year is dumb. I believe if you were selective, you could take smart motivated people from other industries that don't pay much but still have smart employees, and have them do a great job teaching.

You are dealing with people with masters degrees in their field who you are trusting with the next generation. There is no reason to expect to find more qualified people for less money when you are starting at 45% of median household income for the area. Highly qualified individuals in other career tracks are often paid more while also lacking the relevant skills and education. Industries that are lower paid are goin…

I do talk to actual teachers at many social events, and IMO they are a joke. Maybe it's hard to get this across in short messages.

Maybe take a look at reading and math proficiency rates... And then add in the fact that many kids propping up those stats are basically part time home schooled by parents after school and on the weekend to makeup for the lacking teachers.

I mean, I don't deny that teachers are paid less compared to other fields, but that is actually pretty universal among occupations that provide the worker with a higher sense of purpose. You can see the same thing in social work, the non profit sector and elsewhere. Whether that's truly just is an entirely different question than 'is there a direct relationship between teacher pay and student achievement' and looking…

I save myself a lot of heartache and consternation by 'accepting the things I cannot change' to crib the serenity prayer

As a general rule, it's unethical people who like to ignore ethical issues for their own benefit.

And there's plenty I can do. Studying the issue & preparing a move, to name two. You want to roll over cause that's your lack of ethics.

It won't work out for you. Set a reminder for 2030.
