I didn't pay for FSD but it's been offered again as another demo period. I'll always try it out to see if they have made progress. The Sun still can blind it and cause it to turn control back to the driver. Because I have One Pedal Driving enabled the …

Did you try using ChapGPT or CLAUDE?

Pick your weapon first. 1. Meat cleaver. 2. Machete. I have both so which I use is the one I find first.

Communication skills. Wide gap. Remember that such comes with time.

You omitted the drive type. You also fell for the "best" trap. 1. HDD or hard drives with a zero or any fill are nearly impossible to recover data from. Even the FBI labs can't do that. There were some studies on recovery using million dollar labs in the NSA …

Most hardware is fine but then there's that connection to the cloud that goes down and bricks your IoT thing or blocks you logging in to your computer. Ask why I MUST have an account at Apple or MSFT to log into today's consumer hardware.

New 3D printer and it jammed in a few days. Here's the thing. I can't expect help here so I went to Reddit. A link was the answer there and here's the stray bit of filament that found its way into the extruder head. I imagine average folk would at …

Until this year I would have written no. But due to the march towards fascism we have put money and time into hardware to help in the cause. 1. Big printer to make fairly large protest banners and signs. 2. 3D printers to churn out Anti-I.C.E. whistles. 3. A second …

You lead with "I came across some code" in your other post. You may as well have used CLAUDE and posted the code here. Yes, try that next time.

Here's my take. 1. Have a way to vote on the AI content. Or at least report it if we disagree with the content. As is it appears to be unregulated. 2. The AI reply was IMO awful.

Downvote? Not from me. But you can send 2 messages about yourself with those 2 posts. One you use all caps and might be too sensitive. It takes a lot of patience to code and write a complex system. Not everyone is up to that. What I'm seeing more and …

The Dani AI content needs an OFF SWITCH. Maybe this place is trying to cater to the bots now.

Are you trying to summon an abomination? See https://imgur.com/gallery/abomination-rise-x1jbHEv Yup, a monolithic class would be that. As to editors, Visual Stuido Code is a good one IMO.

We use Google Calendar. If your calendar doesn't work with it, I'm not going to give your app a look. Also I don't give a damn about your SEO.

Q: How do you decide what to learn? A: A need arises and it may be within the time and space I have to spend time and effort. Q: With so many languages and technologies coming out all the time, coupled with information overload on the Internet these days, how …

You should reveal more here. I was the primary dev and more for PalmOS and later Android mobile apps. Talk about cross platform. These two systems were light years apart.

Because of the shoehorn comment, my prior work in design made the addition of 3D printers to our office easy. Not that I know much about 3D printing but because of all the problem solving over the years it helped me ask the right questions. More so it helped me …

I traveled mostly to Taiwan to facilitate removing product defects. These defects ran the gamut from code issues, fake parts, production gaffes and assembler errors. My buddy went to other countries but the workers there had a lot in common and that was low pay with no allusion there was …

1 out of 1000 is great. Are you new to this?

Electrical worker's joke: Q. Why do the lines hum? A. Because they don't know the words.

This just in. Turns out you can turn off a lot of the AI search results with: https://www.google.com/search?q=%s&udm=14 You can research this further to see if it helps move you to your goals.

That would be VFIDE. Old PalmOS IDE. And MS-DOS 6.22 because reasons.

Wait a minute, isn't using current AI a cyber leak today? How are you going to address leaking data you fed into the usual AI clouds?

So how did you handle Kiribati where 3 days occur at the same time? I really wonder how one doesn't blow up on that one.

You should try each to see which is a good fit for you and your dev team. Our last system was still on MySQL and did fine. It was a vehicle tracking system updating hundreds of times per second. The key to its performance was in the coding of the …

It happens but is rare. About my only possible regret is that with the current regime checking our phones at airports now and more, the worry is that we'll be considered ANTIFA and subject to arrest for daring to speak out. I have other stories but will not put others …

This is a fine example of how good Microsoft support and code/app quality is. Mind you this is from memory, something about having to enable and log into OneDrive might fix it. For me I swore off Office and moved to LibreOffice. There's nothing in Outlook worth the trouble and …

Interesting site. I made many trips overseas to find out why the company products were experiencing early failures. Nearly all the hardware failures were tracked back to [Counterfeit electronic components](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Counterfeit_electronic_components). Does your company warrant the components and pay for the damage caused?

Zero click searches. Dwell on that. On top of that, look at what is now being ingested which was previously off limits. Gmail for example. With so much AI generated slop, and without any disclaimer such was AI generated I say let AI do the Ouroboros.

Share a small code example so everyone can look and maybe find out why. It's like "pictures or it never happened."

This sounds like a classic XY Problem. Read https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/XY_problem

Nod to https://blogs.perficient.com/2023/10/26/empowering-flexible-and-maintainable-applications-using-vue-composition-api You're moving from an automatic and hidden reactivity to manual exposed reactivity. As such this sounds like YOU get to do all the work. For some this may sound HACKY but I'll disagree.

Lesson learned some hundred times. For ecommerce, go with pre-built ecommerce solutions. The worst example I can share is that my mother's workplace asked me this and a consultant said "Oh no, you need full custom." Two years later and over 100 thousand USD (dollars) the site was not online …

Not yet. If you are asking but not asking about the last few days movement, that was Softbank. "Nothing to see here. Move along."

No code shared? File under "Doctor, it hurts when I do this?" Doctor: Don't do that.

Wait, what? Didn't it have one before? No.  This old house was built in the 1920s from what we could tell and back then you didn't need much. It's now a rental and undergoing renovation to bring it up to something passable to today's code. The technical debt is …

This varies with your needs. If you need Ethernet then you shop for that or consider some adapter. No one can write you need x and y ports or subspace connectivity.

No to the turn off the firewall question. Time to remove Avast and go native with Defender.

What's your goal? We know that your goal is not the same as Google so if you're OK with AEO and having GOOG pillage and plunder your content without anyone visiting your site, then AEO is for you.

Nothing new really. Same issues as any app dev work. Is this you first time out?

The 2nd "programmer" at where my son works is "Vibe coder" or someone who has AI write 100% of their code. My advice to my son is to let them deal with it and don't count on the company to survive past a year. Take the money and run.

Boycotts work. Example: Disney and Jimmy Kimmel.

###### Small test.

Over the past week I've put more of LibreOffice through its paces. While we do have older versions of Office good to go, I can't find reason to install those today.

Just for fun I put "Why is it that Google has become such a monopoly" at Grok. com and it was pretty clear that, well, Gork is good at such things.

The Apple iPhone Pocket is over 200 USD and looks like a sock with a cut in it. Change my mind.
