Mislead is the present tense; Misled, the past tense. I'm not seeing the tenses being used interchangeably with the same spelling on the site, but I may be missing it.

I've been seeing the misspelling of the past tense of lead (led) incredibly often in the past couple years. It's clearly confusing that lead is an actual word, so it may seem right…

My wife recently reminded me of something I made for her while she was sick last winter - Grilled cheese on sourdough (with roasted garlic mixed into the cheese) toasted to a crisp…

Most definitely. I'm fortunate to have four record shops in my neighborhood, and I make my way to them every couple months. Along with some friends of mine, we trade off hosting re…

I miss the neighborhood officianados. The movie buff at the blockbuster. The music fiend at the local record shop The gamer at the mom & pop game store. The guy at Egghead Software…

As a near-fifty year old who has been making sourdough for 6 years, makes homemade mayo with a grated garlic clove and freshly squeezed lemons every couple weeks, and keeps a stash…

I've been maintaining a personal calorie tracker (keeps me entering), and using claude for entering meals has been the perfect experience. One of my favorite features has been givi…

I also appreciate the social break my brain seems to need in order to keep socializing. I'm an introvert but also social, so I love to talk to friends and hang out - but I still ne…

Security questions have always been ridiculous, but I'll especially never understand how "favorite [thing]" ever made it to production anywhere. "Favorite movie" can change multipl…

I love it! So much fun. Thanks for adding Free Play!

This is so well done and very cool. Thanks for building it and offering it. As someone who hasn't had a piano lesson in about 40 years, I find myself wanting to play with the keys …

I've done a similar thing with close friends and family who would constantly ask me things I couldn't possibly know because I always came up with an answer. Eventually I realized w…

I've had cases where it doesn't explicitly use a skill I've added BUT it still performs the actions described in the skill on its own more often than it did before I created the sk…

I really appreciate this post. It reminds me of a video I watched a couple years ago that does an excellent job of demonstrating how culling works with actual code and visuals http…

I'm similarly unpredictable in my home. Add to that the others in my house, and it's impossible to even guess what everyone's intentions are at any given time. Sometimes I daydream…

I feel like dealing with robo-calls for the past couple years had led me to this conclusion a bit before this boom in ai-generated text. When I answer my phone, if I hear a recordi…

I have the same issue. Even when I ask it to do code-reviews and very explicitly tell it not to change files, it will occasionally just start "fixing" things.

My house is 150 years old, but it's also been rebuilt several times in that time. My neighbors' houses are less than a decade old. We have all swapped stories about replacing thing…

In Chicago, code requires EMT for all electrical, which can be annoying for adding a new run, but at the very least it makes it less likely for rodents to chew through or other int…

For sure. I've wired my old house with speakers in every ceiling, and cat-6 in every room. I've had a small pipe burst and a couple leaks behind a bathroom. I've patched quite a bi…

I watched a video recently, which I can't find, where an architect set up a beautiful wooden baseboard around the entirety of their property, and that baseboard held all mechanical…

I will never understand why we fill our walls with mechanical and electrical infrastructure and then wrap them in a paper and plaster, which then needs to be torn, broken, and repa…

It wasn't clear to me that this was a joke either. I assume the same for others since the post is grayed out.

I can only wear tall-size clothing, and generally I've found that none of my t-shirts shrink "in", but they _all_ shrink "up". I can make them last longer washing them delicate and…
