Tip: teach it how to write tests properly. I’ll share what has worked pretty well for me. Run Cursor in “agent” mode, or create a Codex or Claude Code “unit test” skill. I recommend claude code. Explain to the LLM that after it creates or m

1 day is way too little time. make sure the room’s humidity is low, and consider unscrewing the back part of the body to let it dry more quickly. I’d try again in 2-3 days. Water doesn’t leave any (or much) residue after it dries. Unlike ot

looking young is a fine goal, but this advice is too general on a forum like this. The actual UV index varies wildly based on location and time of year. Your advice would be crazy in seattle or london for example. Except summer time, or if

well i’ll also point out, as a married man, my partner doesn’t have the “authority” to unilaterally decide how our child is raised. Notice the word OUR. There is no “I” in the word our. It’s a joint decision. If it’s not, then you’re not op

sounds like a culture and management problem. CTO should set clear expectations for his staff and discuss with product to ensure there is alignment. If i was CTO I would not be happy to hear my engineers are spending lots of time re-writing

so what happens if you are running an agent locally and it helpfully tries to write a script that prints the environment variables, for debugging purposes?

and you know what, that actually might be reasonable if the iPhone was smart enough to retry a few times - either with exponential backoff or when network connectivity is restored. instead, it just pretends everything is working great lol.

I’m not sure if you read the same article as me. Or maybe you’re reading between the lines in an uncharitable way due to a bias. Who knows. I’ll quote: > All three women encountered by the Colorado hospital staff were reluctant to take t

Technically correct. Do tell though - what prevents ICE from treating humans like humans? Too much to ask?

i agree with you. If a patient expresses that sentiment to their doctor, they should act accordingly and order the extra screening. At the end of the day it should be a conversation with your provider. There should definitely be an honest d

I’ve thought about this. According to this source, “Approximately 72% of all brain tumors are benign”. https://braintumor.org/brain-tumors/about-brain-tumors/brain... So my wife has gone through all this extra str

IMO chatgpt is a much better translator. Especially if you’re using one of their normal models like 5.1. I’ve used it many times with an obscure and difficult slavic language that i’m fluent in for example, and chatgpt nailed it whereas goo

in some cases the knowledge itself is a curse. These commenters mostly have no clue what they’re talking about and it shows. My spouse found out they had a benign brain tumor, an accidental discovery while doing a brain scan for some other

Computers are not just for business and corporate use. Believe it or not, some people use their computers for fun stuff. I do feel like we’ve gone too far from utilitarian though. I’d like to see more practical UI design.

i think you meant everyone builds web apps because they want to target all platforms / hardware, they don’t care about performance (cpu usage, memory usage, etc), and they are easier to “deploy” in many respects. Pros and cons to each.

I mean, if you’re confident about security best practices, have a moderate amount of networking experience, and are a seasoned web developer, it’s not too scary at all. I realize that’s a lot of prerequisites though. it’s not a fair compari

from my understanding of educational outcomes, the BIGGEST factor in a child’s success in school is their home life. At least for K-12. Multiple studies come to this conclusion. Obviously “home life” encompasses many things like parental in

not even moral decline! I’d personally feel like a fraud every day if I “made it“ by using 5 different _unnecessary_ accommodations. Where is the satisfaction in that? I’m a slow reader. Do i have a disability? Who cares - i can still read

i remember being woken up at 3am by him vomiting in the middle of the room. In the morning he used my swiffer to clean up his vomit. I told him to keep the swiffer . On the bright side, i met my spouse and we’ve been together for 10+ years

I hear you. But for a normal consumer who’s afraid of technology? Doubt it. As a nerd I can easily set up some webcams on my wifi, place them on a firewalled IOT vlan, and securely expose them through the ios home app (with HomeAssistant)…a

hyphen + space in microsoft word will often (depends on your settings) produce an em dash. It’s not some crazy hidden feature. These days word is less popular though, with google docs, pages, and other editors taking pieces of the pie. Mayb

I personally think their privacy policy is very transparent, and they seem to take it seriously. https://kagi.com/privacy obviously neither of us have peeked under the hood at google and kati’s source code, so hard to tell

Based on your comment it sounds like you rarely travel (booking hotel / flights online), don’t have mobility issues (ordering groceries / household essentials online), don’t participate in online banking (do you write checks? carr
