So it's a pig butchering scam basically. but you 'earn' your money, so it feels even more valid to put in some money to get it back?
Readit NewsInteresting. I've been using Gitlens for years without issue. Today I tried the built-in blame decorations and I found they were so responsive and fast that they were distracting. With Gitlens there's a delay before the decoration appears on a line, so if you're moving your cursor quickly around between lines you don't actually get a blame decoration until you've rested there for a few seconds; with the built-in functionality it pops right up as soon as the line focuses so if you go from line to line, there's a lot of activity in your field of view which makes it harder for me to concentrate on the code.
As an adjustment, for now, I'm sticking with the built-in functionality but enabling only the status bar display, whose template I modified to include the commit message and date.
mind sharing that template? Sounds nice.
weird - I had never heard of Jellycats as a brand, but last night I went to go buy a second copy of my toddler's favorite lovey (since the first will inevitably get ruined at some point... thinking ahead). And it was a jellycat brand, must have been gifted to us.
A few thoughts after ~5 minutes:
* I like how the map moves around. It helps nail down relationships to neighbors * I don't mind a few extra "Where's canada", even though it's not that useful * I'd like the pause between answers be shorter. * Small countries are impossible to see when zoomed out on the first exposure, even when selected right. I find myself knowing the area it's in (ie, central america) but not which exact country. So selecting it right when zoomed out doesn't get me the correct answer.
At 5MHz you have a wavelength of approximately 60m. So for a dipole antenna (the most basic) you'd need approximately 30m of wire.
You'd have a length of coax cable going to the centre point of the antenna, so pair of 15m wires extending from each side.
Getting your amateur radio license covers this in more detail.
Dave Casler has a bunch of useful videos on things like this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=18-6sJHk9hU
A dipole is a very simple antenna, and pretty efficient. There are other shorter options that have worse performance too, but perhaps more suitable for an adhoc tree deployment. (random wire, EFHW)
(I know you know this, but just adding in. Ham is fun! I like doing park & camping deployments)

I don’t want this to come out insensitive or from under the rock, but why is taking a drug a novel & cool idea (all of a sudden/recently) as opposed to good old fashioned working out and not eating more than what you need? okay, this drug is all kinds of great and it’s the next best thing since green grapes, still not eating more and workout is better than taking drugs that effect your brain right? Are doctors required to explain this before prescribing this in US?
In 2021 I lost a good chunk of weight the old fashioned way. From 250ish to 215. I did it with "good old fashioned working out and not eating more". It was a miserable, white-knuckle experience. I was eating healthy food, enough calories (moderate but sane deficit), but the only thing I thought about at all moments was getting to the next meal. What snack is low enough calories to have to make it. It was miserable. As soon as I let up a bit, everything unraveled and I found myself back in the 250s by the start of this year.
Now I'm on Tirzepatide (Zepbound), and I'm back to 235ish, and trending lower. I still work on eating healthy, but now I'm not just HUNGRY at all moments. My life continues, and I only have to make individual healthy choices at meal times, and grocery times, rather than a constant struggle at all waking moments. It's seriously a big difference.

I generally support this. When dealing with API endpoints especially I like to wrap them in a class that ends up being. I also like having nested data structures as their own class sometimes too. Depends on complexity & need of course.
class GetThingResult
def initialize(json)
@json = json
end
# single thing
def thing_id
@json.dig('wrapper', 'metadata', 'id')
end
# multiple things
def history
@json['history'].map { |h| ThingHistory.new(h) }
end
... two dozen more things

It seems sort of weird to keep pushing the chat interface so hard into programming. For 'real' usage, it seems like Cursor or Aider approaches work better, since you end up having AI write code, you manually edit, AI updates further, and back and forth. In a chat interface, copy/pasting updated code gets old fast.
On the other hand, I did have good luck w/ Anthropic's version of this to make a single page react app with super basic requirements. I couldn't imagine using it for anything more though.
In the past, that much nitpicky detail just wouldn't have gotten done, my time would have been spent on actual features. But what I just described was a 30 minute background thing in claude code. Worked 95%, and needed just one reminder tweak to make it deployable.
The actual work I do is too deep in business knowledge to be AI coded directly, but I do use it to write tests to cover various edge cases, trace current usage of existing code, and so on. I also find AI code reviews really useful to catch 'dumb errors' - nil errors, type mismatches, style mismatch with existing code, and so on. It's in addition to human code reviews, but easy to run on every PR.
