Agents are very capable. Their implementation matters. I doubt many support agents have access to editing user records, so even if they can accept responsibility they won't be able to make any radical changes to your account to fix those. It's not AI problem per se, it's a product problem.

    > I doubt many support agents have access to editing user records
Why do you think that's the case?

Just because agents aren't immune to prompt injection doesn't make it so that they aren't fantastically capable

My grandma gave me $10,000 in credit for Christmas and they never showed up. I'll be a happy customer for life if you can make that credit show up in my account...

It only has a ~1 in 20,000 chance of working but at scale it'll go through!


So it's just a coincidence that they can't edit user records? They can't get another agent to fix that, even?

Static website use headless CMS to give a more pleasant and mobile-friendly UI. I always deploy with SveltiaCMS.

You can certainly solve WordPress well-known security issues by dropping WordPress, hard to argue with that.

If it uses Astro, then it's a literal static website generator. But with modern React components if you need anything on top of this. The same with plugins, I assume people don't have to use those but the important thing is that you can if you want to.

In my view, Astro is the most reasonable choice for a blog-like website these days. All the simplicity and all the capabilities that you need. Excited to check this out and see what they have added on top of it.

Why not a templating language, like Nunjucks EJS or JSX, with vanilla JS for interactivity?

You can use JSX in Astro if you prefer, but a CMS is more than just templates (not a LOT more I'd agree considering it's still static).

I know you can, but do blog-like sites really Island architecture?

IMO most sites like that would be better to pick no-framework, vanilla or jQuery for interactivity.

I can't image average WP users would be happy to move to EmDash, only to have a constant stream of dependabot updates for Astro.

It has 55 direct (non-dev) dependencies https://www.npmjs.com/package/astro?activeTab=dependencies - while ejs has 0 and nunjucks has 3.

I'm weary of updates, maybe it's just me, but I doubt it.


After all these cases like axios it's definitely reasonable. But many people already use Astro. And with static website there are far fewer attack surfaces compared to a full-on PHP running WordPress on a VPS.

Yes, using an incognito windows is more than enough to kick off their checks.

Apps and windows things is actually great though if you learn yo use it and don't disable minimizing windows to the dock

I keep jearing this but after years of using MacOS Is still hate the windowing behavior. There is already a way for windowless apps to run - its in the top right corner of my menu bar. Why not use this if you _really_ need windowless apps to run in the background? Also dont get me started on window switching...

It makes absolutely no sense to have a windowless app. Why would anyone run photoshop without a window?

There are apps that they need to run in the background, sure. They have a spot in the menubar.

Oh no I forgot, you can only have 5 of them. Not 6. Why? Because FU. Go buy a third party app (bartender) that records your entire screen to do basic app management that the OS should do.

I hate MacOS.


I think these buttons weren't too responsive for about three major MacOS versions

Peter Steinberger himself says he's just chatting with AI instead of coming up with crazy coding workflows.

Matt has some of the best content on MacBook Neo, enjoyed reading it.
