@levelsio @ybouane Also "create" GOOD people, and be one of them.
I know, this post is only highlighting the issue. But it'd be good bring light to a solution, which, to me, is very related to education.
I think you sometimes make a point of cultural incompatibility, I can't fully agree with that.

The US is way way way more strict in who they let into their country
Which is the same MENA or South Asian countries of origins have the good immigrants ending up in US and the bad ending up in Europe because Europe sucks at filtering out the bad
Look at the CEOs of Google, Microsoft, etc. lots of Indian-Americans that's not the issue
Again GOOD people and BAD people
Import the GOOD people
English

Nice hot take but structurally false I think
The European immigration debate is about mass, permanent, involuntary immigration: people fleeing poverty, settling permanently in Europe, heavily using welfare systems and changing demographics irreversibly
Digital nomads are voluntary, usually temporary, high-income and pay their way. They're more like rich tourists who stay longer than any regular immigration archetype. Digital nomads don't claim welfare, they don't affect public housing queues, and because they're not resident, they need to keep having income remotely to pay for most things privately (like healthcare)
There's no data attributing any significant crime to digital nomads in South East Asia. Actual crime there comes from different sources: Chinese-origin criminal networks (see the kidnappings in Thailand brought to Myanmar and Cambodia to scam people.
Westerners on laptops drinking their iced latte are not showing up in any crime data in particular. Maybe some Russians in Bali for sure but that's not most digital nomads, and that's just because they're Russian!
The average digital nomad earns $85,000/year and spends about 35% of that into the local economy: on housing, coworking, cafes, food, transport, directly supporting local jobs and small businesses
Many countries around the world are trying to attract MORE digital nomads not LESS, like Thailand, Indonesia and Malaysia rolling out special digital nomad visa for them, governments generally like digital nomads. They're a good contribution to the countries bringing lots of money, high tech (and high IQ) tech workers which can rub off on the locals
The only argument you can make is gentrification, more digital nomads and tourists in a place can gentrify a place. See what happened in a place like Canggu in Bali. But that's more about too many hipster cafes, coworkings and brunch places and overbuilding of houses, which can be avoided by better regulation and zoning. Thailand for example has barely any of these issues. Luckily Bali is big so most of it is unaffected
Anyway, apart from that digital nomads are generally a net positive contribution, while the current mass immigration in Europe is a net negative. And that's now provable with data.
I'm an immigrant myself, and digital nomad, and we should change the narrative not that immigration is bad, but that there's good and bad immigration
Europe is getting mostly bad immigration now which is causing severe social and economic issues now
So yes it is completely logical and not hypocritical to see DNs go to South East Asia while they complain about immigrants in Europe, you just have to look at the data to get it

digital nomads are like "I hate it here in europe with these immigrants ruining our safe and friendly culture, and take advantage of our economy" and then emigrate to south east asia to ruin the safe and friendly culture and take advantage of their economy 👍

This was a very interesting read. I haven't been the most AI coding agent enthusiast for a while. But I'm using them more and more these past months, and my workflow is changing a lot. This was a very interesting read, I think I need to up my system design game!

My new favorite tmux dev layout features @opencode (with Kimi K2.5 running on @FireworksAI_HQ) on top and Claude Code on the bottom. I start almost all agent tasks with Kimi (so fast!), then ask Claude if I need a second opinion/more advanced stuff. Great combo!

@marckohlbrugge I mean, it's like a game engine, it's expected a bit of delay...

Trying to find the manuals for @OmarchyLinux but of course @LaLiga blocked the website, because for some reason they have that power now. 😡

@FactoryAI I asked for a refund more than a week ago, never received an answer. Please answer.

@JMDTetuan @GomezAngulo ¿Qué plaza habéis ido a visitar? Porque la de mi barrio sigue cerrada por obras 🚧 🤔

🚧Finalizamos la remodelación de la plaza del Poeta Leopoldo de Luis en Tetuán
👉La concejala del distrito, @GomezAngulo, ha visitado la plaza y comprobado el resultado de las obras, en las que se han invertido más de 320.000 euros.

@FactoryAI Hi, I wrote to support 12 days ago, then 6 days ago, I just wrote again. I haven't had a real answer.
Please approve the refund...

@ThePrimeagen @ZackKorman Isn't the dangerous part installing things without knowing what they do?
Skills by itself are just prompts, the problem is if the prompts are safe, right?
English

@ZackKorman THIS RIGHT HERE
skills are single handily the most dangerous feature of the current agents wave

@glcst Speed, immediacy, an idea of efficiency, that (and more) is imprinted in AI as a technology, so people using probably accept those principles as desirable, and if they're not conscious, it will shape their thinking.
Technology is not neutral, it carries some principles
English

Part of me is bearish on AI. Not because it won't work, but precisely because it will.
The big paradox is that since the so called humanist revolution centuries ago, an in particular after the industrial revolution, we have been marching to an increasingly less human world.
The premise is that technology will free us up as machines work for us, and that's what the marketing materials say. But time and time again what happens is that we end up working for the machines. We become more atomized, and less free (in the metaphysical, not political sense).
Perhaps this time it is different. But the trend of people not being able to disconnect for a second (from already an insanely terminally online baseline) because if they don't have 30 background agents running they will be left behind, this early in the adoption curve, doesn't bode well for us.
English

@ThePrimeagen Oh, great idea! We need one for counting letters. How many r in raspberry, or in strawberry, etc.
English

guys, I was wrong
AI is much more powerful than I thought. I just created my first skill and it's already revolutionizing how I code
you got to try it yourself
