“이 작은 생선에 가시가 왜 이렇게 많은 줄 아니? 더 큰 물고기가 잡아먹지 못하도록 하기 위해서야. 가시가 많으면 먹다가 목에 걸릴 테니까….” 초등학생이었던 내가 어머니께 여쭤보았다. “그렇지만 가시가 많다는 것을 아는 것은 이미 먹힌 다음이잖아요?” 어머니가 이어서 말씀하셨다. “그다음부터 동료들을 먹지 않잖아. 자기는 죽지만 동료들을 살릴 수 있잖아. 작은 물고기도 그렇게 산다.” www.hani.co.kr/arti/opinion...

어떤 게임서버 로그 파일을 자동으로 백업할 일이 생겼는데

파일 둘 곳이 생각나지 않아서 그냥 매일 자정마다 집에서 굴러가는 넥스트클라우드에 업로드하게 했어

Over a year ago, I posited that AI coding stuff isn't about coding or productivity. It's about some % of people who feel a stimulus-reward thing from using it, similar to how some people feel when gambling. It feels so overwhelmingly good to some % of people they don't even bother to measure if their AI stuff is actually doing anything useful, because of course it must be, because the feeling is so strong.

It seems more & more people are also finding this idea lately.

But I've also realized that it seems to apply to any of the prompt-style AI things, not just coding. There is some kind of slot machine playing mania (sorta, not exactly) thing it triggers in some % of people. I'm certain of it now.

If anything, it makes me feel a bit less angry and more sad towards the people with this AI prompt-query compulsion. It feels closer to when you see someone with a gambling addiction stuck at a gambling machine.

@cancel I think this is why these tools are designed to give you an answer, no matter what.

They'll tell you something is possible when it isn't. They'll give you *some* solution to your problem, no matter how half-baked or incomplete.

What they won't do is say 'I do not know', or 'no, this is not possible', or 'I can't do that without more information'.

They're designed to trigger an addictive response, because their makers want people to depend on them.

Israel to open Gaza’s Rafah crossing after Netanyahu visit

Multiple Israeli outlets are reporting that Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has proposed reopening Gaza’s Rafah border crossing on the border with Egypt for both entry and exit of Palestinians.

This is in line with longstanding Israeli plans to drive Palestinians out of the enclave.

2026년 병오년 새해를 맞아 식탁보 1.16.0 버전을 출시했습니다. 이번 버전에서는 폴더 마운트 기능, 그리고 백그라운드 비동기 다운로드를 구현하여 이전보다 최대 30~40% 이상 빨라진 환경 구축 속도를 달성했습니다.

코딩 AI 어시스턴트의 도움을 받아 계속해서 빠른 출시와 적극적인 기능 반영을 이어 나가도록 하겠습니다. 많은 공유와 후원을 계속 부탁드리겠습니다!

And for about a week in July, this tree bloomed and the light was right and when the bird kept returning I got to experience the thing every nature photographer lives for.
