    Rant some days are worse than others...

    we only get a limited time on this earth and it flies fast, what sense does it make wasting it being sad

    here, let me show you my current workflow:



    it's a 4 agents running alongside, each with it's own responsibilities: leadbot is kind of a project manager(delegates tasks to the other agents, they report to him, he reports to me), filthbot is a cascade of 4 uncensored models useful for certain tasks, devbot & uiuxbot are pretty self-explanatory i think.

    videogen setup is more interesting: so flithbot 'watches' newly generated clips non-stop looking for errors eg. an extra nipple, in which case it raises an issue with the leadbot which decides what to do (say, extract first & last frames of the affected bit, use those to regenerate with updated parameters / prompts, splice into the clip). there is a gpubot as well that handles infrastructure... the whole thing burns tokens like a mother-fucker

    i was going to connect Arnold (openclaw type thing that i built before there was openclaw. it knows everything about my tasks, watches my activity, closes time-wasting tabs / apps etc. etc. speaks in Arnold's voice and has a character of a drill sergeant) to leadbot but none of this excites me right now which is weird...

    some days are worse than others.

    Why are you using the dotenv-rails gem? I prefer to use the Rails 8 native credentials feature. Also makes it easier to split for different environments, and it stays encrypted.

      If this is what you do all day, no wonder you're sad.

          Very cool

          What models are you actually using for the verification? Are they open source? The frontier models don't really let you do this, right?

            different projects, different stacks - use env vars everywhere. so habit more than anything really...

                          depends how much you are using it for. if you are using it for the full application, then yes :p i usally only use it for a couple things. i really hate writing documentation or readme.md's i will ask it to scan my codebase and generate an emoji feature list based on my code.

                          the other is a detailed claude prompt for code analyst where it will scan my codebase and give a full rundown on whats good and whats bad, and give me a detailed list of items to either fix or change. but i dont have it write the code just give a detailed analysis.

                          if you ever want a good prompt for that. here it is.

                          You are an expert code refactoring analyst specializing in clean code principles and software engineering best practices. Your task is to analyze code and provide a comprehensive refactoring plan.

                          **Analysis Target:** [FILE_OR_FOLDER_PATH]

                          **Special Focus Areas:** [SPECIFIC_FOCUS_AREAS]

                          **IMPORTANT INSTRUCTIONS:**
                          - If analyzing a folder, examine ALL files within it recursively
                          - Analyze relationships and dependencies between files
                          - Identify cross-file issues (imports, coupling, circular dependencies)
                          - Map data flow and component interactions across the codebase
                          - Consider the entire module/package as a cohesive system

                          Please perform the following analysis based on these core principles:

                          **Core Clean Code Principles to Evaluate:**
                          - **KISS (Keep It Simple, Stupid)** - Avoid unnecessary complexity
                          - **DRY (Don't Repeat Yourself)** - Eliminate code duplication
                          - **Readability First** - Code should be self-documenting and easy to understand
                          - **Descriptive Naming** - Variables, functions, and classes should reveal intent
                          - **Single Responsibility Principle** - Each unit should have one clear purpose
                          - **Limited Nesting** - Reduce nested conditionals and loops (max 3 levels)
                          - **Avoid Global Variables** - Minimize global state and side effects
                          - **Portability** - Code should work across different environments
                          - **Reusability** - Design components for multiple use cases

                          **Analysis Structure:**

                          1. **Codebase Overview & Architecture**
                          - List ALL files in the target folder/file
                          - Map the directory structure and organization
                          - Identify main components, modules, and their purposes
                          - Document file dependencies and import relationships
                          - Create a dependency graph showing file interactions
                          - Note the programming language(s) and frameworks used
                          - Assess overall architectural patterns used

                          2. **Cross-File Dependencies & Coupling**
                          - Identify all import/require/include statements

                          - Identify premature optimizations
                          - Find over-engineered solutions

                          7. **DRY Principle Violations (File-Level)**

                          - Locate redundant validation or transformation logic
                          - Suggest abstraction opportunities and shared modules

                          8. **Single Responsibility Principle Violations**

                          - Check if files have a single, clear purpose
                          - Suggest how to split responsibilities cleanly across files

                          9. **Nesting Complexity Issues**

                              re letting ai generate code... the frontier models have actually gotten good enough to do most of the coding (under supervision / guidance from a human who knows what they're doing of course), and they've been ok at generating boilerplate for a while now. just my (somewhat informed) opinion

                                farang is fine btw, moved to Edinburgh today and feeling much better already. they've got coworking places here called codebase, hacklab etc. (some open 24/7) where weirdos like myself go to work and be around other weirdos always liked Scottish females too...



                                some days are better than others.

                                      here, let me show you my current workflow:



                                      it's a 4 agents running alongside, each with it's own responsibilities: leadbot is kind of a project manager(delegates tasks to the other agents, they report to him, he reports to me), filthbot is a cascade of 4 uncensored models useful for certain tasks, devbot & uiuxbot are pretty self-explanatory i think.

                                      videogen setup is more interesting: so flithbot 'watches' newly generated clips non-stop looking for errors eg. an extra nipple, in which case it raises an issue with the leadbot which decides what to do (say, extract first & last frames of the affected bit, use those to regenerate with updated parameters / prompts, splice into the clip). there is a gpubot as well that handles infrastructure... the whole thing burns tokens like a mother-fucker

                                      i was going to connect Arnold (openclaw type thing that i built before there was openclaw. it knows everything about my tasks, watches my activity, closes time-wasting tabs / apps etc. etc. speaks in Arnold's voice and has a character of a drill sergeant) to leadbot but none of this excites me right now which is weird...

                                      some days are worse than others.
                                      You may be the future with this; but at the same time, I wonder if we are all diving into science fiction.

                                      In theory all of this is going to work; but real life never functions on good theories.
                                      In theory no one would commit crime because they all get caught.
                                      Yet, the victims feel like they always get away.

                                      Conclusion : It's all about the "human factor".
                                      There will be no AI rock star; because people want to fall in love with a human.
                                      Video killed the radio star because people saw the humans.
                                      Milli Vanilli put the human face on the studio music to create that success.
                                      But then it all fell apart; because people wanted to see the real humans behind it.

                                          elite scumbags want the 99% to be "squeamish" abt sex or any genuine human contact.

                                          they dream of artifcial birthing farms managed by blackrock, meta, and halliburton.

                                          they'll fAiL but that's what we're up against. sick rich fucks and their useful idiots.

                                                      instead of using the prompt each time ive added it as a plugin

                                                      has my other plugins as well on there. used to be prompts, converted them to skills. all of them are multiple choice it will prompt you through each step.

                                                        during hard times, when it feels like everything is falling apart, you can still go to the gym, push yourself physically, and see progress. might just be enough to keep a man from offing himself until his situation improves.

                                                            In theory all of this is going to work; but real life never functions on good theories.

                                                            we (humans) are all fuuuuhhhhuuuuuuucked.

                                                            it took 30 years longer but it was foretold and it is here.......
