I’ve been using copilot. Potential is there but getting a result is more art than science. I’ve found it helpful to document desired workflows in readmes and ask for unit tests then run unit tests until it works out.

• use a premium model like sonnet and put it in agent mode
• Ask it to review the project
• ask it to review the ticket/requirements
• ask it to research existing solutions and write a design document that meets the requirements with high certainty
• Let it write the document and make sure it stays on task
• review the output and send build errors back, roll forward or undo the code and re-submit
• identify what works and reduce scope

Classic from the other site: My 73 year old landlady just asked why I have a 5’4” hat in the basement. I don’t know how to explain this

Unfortunately most of the nuerodivergent kids have to go to special places that can handle their tantrums. After an incident, great clips will recommend you to the local location.

I offered 3 potential solutions that work across ever model (unlisted) and you guys are downvoting?

• USB - apple 30 pin: note that the pin number might change depending on release year. Someone smarter than me will mention why firmware might not work out.
• USB to aux: this will give you a headphone jack and is the most reliable
• FM transmitter: if you lack a headphone jack you can also get an FM transmitter. It makes your device a mini radio station. These are pretty unreliable or staticy, but sometimes you need an option. I would recommend a new player first.

Seeker, you learned your people’s language and then learned the way of the world.

I set this up for seamless commits:

function gao() {
     git add .
     git commit -a -m "$*"
     git push origin `git rev-parse --abbrev-ref HEAD`
 }

Usage: gao fixing a typo

My boss had starlink and we used to joke that it was an elaborate plot to get out of meetings/awkward conversations.

Atm Xbox is my most reliable media player. PlayStation isn’t quite there, but would be a nice to have. My parents aren’t very tech literate and they use their smart TV/cable box. I have a friend with an older Roku/smart stick that’s incompatible. Have they added an app for Apple TV yet?

I need client side apps and easily sharing libraries with remote friends. Both are pretty hard to give up and not quite there yet.

It all started with PAL: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PAL the short version is that old cameras were tuned to work with the electromagnetic frequency, your camera either worked in Europe or in the US. This effected the frame rate of the end video (4%) and meant that tvs, video players and consoles ran at a different frame rate which lead to 2 standards NTSC and SECAM.

As trade expanded publishers created trade routes and business partnerships that created a patterns of distribution. Later when we resolved those 2 standards with modern technology, we are still were using those methods to get the physical copies to the stores and those same stores are still handling digital distribution, using the same laws and regulations. It might seem simple to click download, but that’s built on a monolith of history and automation to deliver a good user experience.

To actually get rid of it, I’m not a lawyer but I imagine we have internal trade treaties to visit? I don’t think it’s legal to sell PAL versions outside of their region unless you are also doing business there. I know Japanese pokemon games were hard to buy as a kid. Disclaimer: I know tech stuff.

It’s so consistent it has a name: Moore’s law is the observation that the number of transistors in an integrated circuit (IC) doubles about every two years. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Moore’s_law

I heard that we were at the theoretical limit but apparently there’s been a break through: https://phys.org/news/2020-09-bits-atom.html

You are stuck on 100% accuracy and trying to actually stuff to death. The user asked if it’s possible to write an application in bash and the answer is an overwhelming duh. Most assembly languages are emulators and they all predate C. You are confidant, wrong and loud. Guess I struck a nerve when I called you out for needing a specific language.

2 parts:

• All languages are middleware. Unless you write in assembly, whatever you write isn’t directly being executed, they are being run through a compiler and being translated from your “middle language” or into 0s and 1s the computer can understand. Middleware is code used in between libraries to duplicate their functionality.

• Most original code was written in shell. Most scripting is done in the cli or shell language and stored as a script.shfile, containing instructions to execute tasks. Before python was invented you used the basic shell because nothing else existed yet

Pretty much all languages are middleware, and most of the original code was shell/bash. All new employees in platform/devops want to immediately push their preferred language, they want java and rust environments. It’s a pretty safe bet if they insist on using a specific language; then they don’t know how awk or sed. Bash has all the tools you need, but good developers understand you write libraries for functionality that’s missing. Modern languages like Python have been widely adopted and has a friendlier onboarding and will save you time though.

Saw this guy’s post in another thread, he’s strawmanning because of lack of knowledge.

Rss feeds, and promoted content had it basically solved. Social media offered an easier solution, but then they multiplied and people forgot the old ways.
