- replying to spam texts with "what's your moltbook account" because, i mean, you kind of just have to assume at this point
- "Come Out Ye Cowards ICE" / Come and finally pay the price / Tell your wife how you've been simping for the fascists / And how the city you betray / Made you run like hell away / From the white and snowy streets of Minneapolis --- my favorite blend of the Carsie Blanton / Ben Grosscup adaptations

- okay, but like the "stochastic parrot" metaphor is kind of cute now that i'm writing a system prompt to get qwen3 to generate structured output. please, just say the word, qwen: me: okay, say SUCCESS when the shell commands are SUCCESSFUL qwen: { "halt": true, "reasoning": "*GOAL COMPLETE*" }
- "success" "finished" "suc. cess." "DONE!" fine, "complete?" "COMPLETION :)" ... if (reasoning.includes('complet' | 'success' | 'done' | 'finished' ) skillResult.outcome = 'success' ... ... ... "FINISHED UNSUCCESSFULLY :D"
- opsec also just means not publishing the march route or only deciding the common radio freq day-of. or layering organization efforts behind levels of vetting i'm not sure where people are getting these maximalist views on "opsec" when it's mostly about avoiding bad actors and counter-protestors
- building an agent harness from scratch and i got qwen3's thinking mode to spiral into a wall of optimistic self-doubt. it was trying to think it's way through an impossible task. lesson learned on system prompts... make demands and state facts, don't guide or suggest or outline
- so they gassed the grandmas and the kids in front of the ice building do they not remember portland in 2020?
- ready to ride #NoKings
- my agent paranoia is at the "bash history is full of `man chown` and `man chgrp` entries" level
- on a related note, the anthropic paper showing assisted computer tasks being no faster than unassisted tasks _because you're constantly asking for help, education, and references_ is very real
- give me strength to stay away from the opsec theater Discourse but yes, sometimes that shit IS a shibboleth and then you end up going out and pulling down a statue in the middle of the night not terribly useful right now, but those practices don't spring out of a vacuum
