Ignoring user input?

We don’t want verbose mode. We don’t want the whole file contents. We are not asking for that. What is not clear here?

All we want is the file paths. That is all. Verbose mode pulls in a lot of other information that might very well be needed in other contexts. People who want that info should use verbose mode. All we want is the regular non-verbose mode, with paths.

I fail to see how it is confusing to users, even new users, to print which paths were accessed. I fail to see the point of printing that some paths were accessed, but not which.


Verbose mode does exactly what you want as of v2.1.39, you are confusing it with the full transcript which is a different feature (ctrl+o). You enable verbose mode in /config and it gives you files read and search patterns and token count, not whole file contents.

Please don’t change what these modes do! I have scripts that call into the agent SDK with verbose mode output for logging purposes. Now I guess I need to recreate the old verbose mode for that application? Why?

We are already long past that point…

Yeah, it's easy to see the singularity as close when you see it as "when human loose collective control of machines" but any serious look at human society will see that human lost collective control of machines a while back ... to the small number of humans individually owning and controlling the machine.

Even the humans at the top don’t have commanding control of the machines, however. We live in an age where power is determined by the same ineffable force that governs whether a tweet goes viral.

Since Luddites smashed textile machines in England three hundred years ago, it seems technology didn’t care, it kept growing apace due to capitalism. Money and greed fed the process, we never stood a chance of stopping any of it.

There should be no ads on the internet.

Yeah, and like, I commiserate with that view, I think it would make the internet/world a better place, but I don't think "no ads for trademarks" is helpful way to reach for that goal.

Not the person you are replying to, but I much prefer catching up on a small number of channels, than having to click around a bunch of different individual topics. But it is a tradeoff.

You don't have to click into topics. Zulip has a "channel view" which lets you see all messages in a channel, chronologically, just like Slack or Discord or IRC. That's actually the default experience when you click on a channel in the sidebar.

It also has an "entire server" view if you want to see everything in one stream.


I see thank you!

I think it depends on how you're interacting with the instance/server. I find the rust zulip much easier to follow than the k8s slack (or the lancer discord). I can see on a (much) quieter instance where it's a group of friends you want to see most messages where a single channel is a better option.

I agree with this. We use Slack at work, where we have a small team, and most of us are reading most messages in realtime. It works*

Contrast that to my experience with a group of volunteers who might log in a couple of days a week, communication is a lot more async, and you might not care about all the topics of discussion. I have found Zulip makes it easier to come back and catch up on just the bits you care about.

*I still think Slack encourages a "continuous partial attention" way of engaging with chat that I don't like. But, we do make it work.


What defense agreements?

It really doesn’t have to be more complicated than that. User experience is important.

Bitcoin has already largely separated from the 4 year cycle.

I have a hard time following the descriptions here and imaging what is going on.

People stopped at night with the trunk open to access a spare tire or tools, ok. How did that get them killed?


It is a dark and stormy night.

You are driving on a road with only a single lane in each direction, and there is no verge or hard shoulder.

All you can see is the short area in front of you that your headlights illuminate, and they are dipped as normal so as not to dazzle oncoming drivers. You can see cars ahead of you quite easily because they have two red lamps on their rear, at their left and right extremities. You can see them even when you can't see the road between you and them. You can judge their relative speed from a long distance away.

Imagine a car has broken down. Remember they're in the same lane as you. You can see their red lamps and hazard lights, and you can judge they're not moving, well before you reach them. You slow down and go around them safely.

Imagine a second car has broken down. This car has an electrical fault and no lights, but has rear reflectors, just like roadsigns, which even your dipped headlights reflect quite well, and give you time to react. You manage to go around them safely.

Imagine a third car has broken down. The lights and reflectors are on the trunk hatch. It's opened and pointed at the sky. You're not in the sky. All you see ahead of you is blackness. The car body is only illuminated by your headlights once it's too late. You slam straight into the stopped, dark car. The person who was looking in the trunk is crushed to death.


Are there cars in which the red lights are not reflectors? I thought that was how they worked. Every red tail light was also a retro reflector. Or is this a hypothetical?

I’m not being obtuse! I’m genuinely concerned that my understanding of car safety features is correct here.


I don't want my door handle to look clean. I want it to be something I can quickly and easily grab and pull.
