Comment on Slightly safer vibecoding by adopting old hacker habitsparent

I used to use sealtbelts for sandbox, i found it consumes way more tokens when sandboxed.

Now, i run YOLO and haven't had any issue and my subscription lasts much longer with less token consumption!

How/why did it consume more tokens?

Well, thing is I ask it doesn't things where sandbox fails.

And then it has to bypass sandbox to run those command with elevated permission.

This double tripe boosts token usage.

I don't think average developer workflow can be really limited to a workspace. You'll need commands which touch your system or require more privilege
