#yle voisi maksaa kirjeenvaihtajille sen verran palkkaa että he voisivat raportoida hotellihuoneesta tai edes jostain sisätilasta. Onhan se jännää nähdä katuelämää vieraista maista mutta kirjeenvaihtajan sanomiset jäävät katumelun alle.

@BananaInYourPie @valigo That brings back memories 15 years ago when an admin truncated tables in the staging database.

And few minutes later found out the window was connected to production database.

[Sami Tikka @sti]

@BananaInYourPie @valigo No worries. If you delete the symlink, only the symlink is deleted, not where it points to. And /bin and the files in it would have been owned by root which means a user cannot delete them.

Unless you are root, of course.

@pcshipp Your mileage may vary https://t.co/hvupVSiwNq

@dani_avila7 More robust: turn on /sandbox and configure it to block the files that are sensitive.

@theo Demise of terminals has been predicted many times but they are still here, maybe stronger than ever.

@0xTengen_ Why don’t you use Claude’s built-in RAG feature, “projects”?

[Sami Tikka @sti]

@mal_shaik You can’t trust LLMs. You need to set up permissions to only allow what you are comfortable for the AI to do. Use /sandbox

@aakashgupta The application bundle is read-only. Any data files or cache files created by the application are written to $HOME/Library/Application Support (or Cache) directory. There is nothing that cleans them up. But I guess usually those files are not huge.

@SakshiSugandhi There is no reason and in many languages it doesn’t.

[Sami Tikka @sti]

@evisdrenova You should /sandbox

[Sami Tikka @sti]

@housecor I did

[Sami Tikka @sti]

@PaulTassi I dunno. I pressed the WPS button in my WiFi router and my printer and added the printer in Linux using the built-in GUI. I think it used to be more difficult.
But I agree it still prints on paper using laser like they did in 1980s.

[Sami Tikka @sti]

@briancoords You should /sandbox

[Sami Tikka @sti]

@gozkybrain4u claude

[Sami Tikka @sti]

@ar_kcy @strager Maybe consider /sandbox

@Guptha933907 @__karnati Process with that high cpu usage is probably not doing many system calls, so ltrace might be more useful than strace.
