Does this mean the Atom 8GB boxes I have laying about are now more valuable?

> It lets you define deploy scripts and other remote tasks

Ok.

> run them from your terminal and watch every step as it happens

> and watch every step as it happens

Yes, this is usually how scripts work.

> When everything finishes, you get a summary table with timing for each step.

> If a task fails, its output is shown and execution stops right there so you can investigate.

Yes, I write my larger scripts to do such things...

> Writing plain bash instead of Blade

Yes, probably a good idea.

Call me crazy (you're crazy!) but I'm not seeing the point.

It also (criminally for an SSH tool) appears for now to only work when the server uses the SSH default port 22:

Literally would be one of the first things I would have tested personally!

This is where I stopped reading:

> Scotty was built with the help of AI

So it sounds like my heuristic worked. =)

We need a term like potempkin-ware or something to express "I just built a 3 week project in 3 hours and, although it looks nice, there's probably a ton of problems with it because I couldn't possibly review everything Claude puked out properly, use at your own risk".

If you don't use any AI assistance when coding I suspect you're already in the minority.

If you refuse to use software that was built with any AI assistance, well... good luck finding an operating system to run.

If they can afford stupid "smart" glasses they can afford dumb glasses.

> There needs to be an industry wide agreement on a standard where something like a bluetooth beacon can shut off recording.

Yes, this is a great idea. Hardware hackers can then quickly clone these beacons and spam $5 glass hole blockers everywhere.

That's a no from me.

Okay? Windows and macOS are basically the same.

Only biased fanboy people say otherwise.

Windows has far more spyware, and somewhat worse usability.

It also doesn't run iTerm.

I'm neither biased nor a fanboy.

I used desktop Linux for a decade or more, moved to MacOS for better usability, but it's kind of gone to shit.

Did up a home windows install for some "modern gaming", but disgusted with Microsoft's rapeware tactics.

Might be time to move to Linux again. Already have it on the kids PCs. Seems to run plenty of stuff from Steam just fine.

Another comment claims they record calls.

Big yikes.

My six year old is a big Meshtastic fan.

Nightmare? Maybe you need to work on telling your children no.

Instead of being bitter for 7 years perhaps you should not have purchased such an absurd thing.

Victim blaming.

Well, he's right in the context of HN audience. But normies are people too, and so are children, and so are 90-year-old grandmas who want to stay in touch with younger family members. If we don't push back against the brainrot, it may very well run our society into the ground.

You're not a victim if you have choice.

How do you explain this to all 8 billion people? How do they all know this is possible?

Mind maze!
