Google models are quite effective at plumbing and managing GCP. At this point I really don't hand write much terraform or search around in the panel for things. You just use their ai chatbot and it find what you need, or copilot in VSCode or simialr to create or modify terraform. I don't think this is enough of a beneit/positive use case to even put a dent in the bill for making these slop bots, but it's something that actually makes my day easier so I can worry about architecture and design rather than the mechanics of some cloud service.

If you ask a bare LLM to do stuff you'll get a mess. I run Claude code with a multipart harness that compels the model to treat the code as the mathematical thing it is, not human prose. LSP Enforcement Kit keeps low capability tools like grep out of the mix, Abstract Syntax Tree things handle the code as its meant to be understood, so that's CodeSight, OptiVault, Serena. About a year ago I gave Antigravity the boot after their awful 2.0 release and went back to JetBrains IDEs, which now offer code structure wise MCP services. Code review with the Ponytail skill chases away LLM excesses, and there's a smattering of other stuff like that in the mix. And then you hunt for whatever additional guardrails you can get the LLM to apply systemically.

I've evolved my own higher level project methods and they're comparable in a lot of ways to what Matt Pocock offers, but his stuff is more structured, more carefully considered, and I have to work with others now, after a long time solo. I'm taking his stuff, implementing a Kanban/wiki system, Gitlab CE, and NanoClaw for anyone who wants agents. I expect quite the slog between now and New Years, but in 2027 we're gonna stop trudging and start gliding over the landscape.

Most of which are scams or will become a scam in the future. History is a guide to this phenomenon. You are wasting your money.

It's not fatalism unless you've got such main character syndrome that you think you personally can change things. You can't. This isn't an individual-scale issue. And cars are the least of our issues. All of that is a distraction from the real consumers/producers. As always.

The biggest scam of oil companies was inventing the "carbon footprint", just like the biggest scam of plastic companies (but I repeat myself) was the chasing triangles that both made things that aren't recyclable appear to be and shift responsibility to the individual, just like the carbon footprint.

Trying to fix the problem hasn't worked. The intelligent response here is mitigation. But that's not happening either, as more and more people build homes and infrastructture in costal cities like Miami.

That's called sociopathy, and it's most definitely not something to be proud of.

I see someone got "triggered", how pathetic you loser.

I see you haven't used airbnb much or at all. Most listings these days are dedicated rental units. Just like "ride share" apps - nobody is ride sharing. This is a straight up business. How do you not know this yet you're commenting with confident ignorance on the topic?

It was pretty good years ago. C1ould be hit or miss of course, but yeah.....I don't understand why anyone would use it today. Certainly well past it's prime/deep into enshitification.

How do you feel after making this post? Like a big, strong man? Or like an idiot and fool the way everyoine reading it sees you.

Confidently displaying your ignorance on a topic isn't a great look. Internalize that you don't know how commercial refrigeration works and either solve that by learning or decide it doesn't matter and move on. Doubling down on stupid shouldn't be the option you choose but based on so much of your incessant posting it seems to by your favorite.

Read the article again. Nowhere does it say they were SET to 50C. It said some REACHED 50C. This is quite obviously because it was forced into hot gas defrost with the termination timer and temp sensor bypassed.

You're making a logical mistake here, assuming it was possible to set them to that temperature. That's not what the article said was done. It specifically says they raised the temperature to that.

What they've most likely done here is activated the reversing valve - a thing that would be normally used for hot gas defrost - and bypassed the defrost termination time and temp sensors.

These things aren't like your home fridge.

That's an excellent point. And in the mean time lots of people are going to end up getting screwed while they catch up with the two new realities: we now live in a low-trust society and a shockingly large number of people have no shame.
