Psychology says people who grew up in the 1960s and 70s don’t handle hardship better than everyone else because they are stronger — they handle it better because they were never offered the alternative, and a person who was never offered the alternative develops a relationship with difficulty that people who were offered it spend their whole lives trying to build in a gym

Growing up without safety nets or sick days didn't make the 60s and 70s generation tougher—it just meant they never learned that struggling through a heart attack wasn't mandatory, creating a peculiar strength that modern gym-goers pay good money trying to replicate but can never quite achieve.

В статье разбираем, как связка из нескольких LLM-агентов автоматически парсит Ansible-плейбуки, генерирует пользовательские инструкции, проверяет и переводит их. Всё это крутится на четырёх Tesla V100 с ручной балансировкой через Ollama и OpenWebUI — без свежего железа, но с десятками сэкономленных часов и гарантией актуальности текстов.
