This is awesome, chefsteps should hire you to do their parametric recipes.

No - it clearly does. But I’m saying look at where the advertising money is going to understand why it’s going to be hard to ban it.

I used to work for a (now defunct) wagering operation. From my understanding even internally the marketing and business guys would’ve preferred the advertisements to be banned. It’…

Yeah it would’ve been an instant buy for me if it did HR monitoring, even if it meant a thicker base. Now it’ll probably just be a fairly quick buy as my Apple Watch s7 can hardly …

I’ve been 100% remote since the Melbourne pandemic shutdowns, and I’ve absolutely loved it for the most part, and hope to be able to continue to work mostly remote going forward. I…

That was me too. Turns out I was just self-medicating for adhd. I still skip the meds on the weekend so I can enjoy larger quantities of coffee.

I would kill for this for when I’m buying fresh produce at the shops. Right now I just raw dog the produce into my basket as putting 4 apples into a plastic bag to ease the weighin…

Doctors’ ability to taste diabetes in urine has also probably eroded since more effective methods have come on the market. If they’re more accurate with the use of AI, why would yo…

I loved it, it was so weird and different to anything else I was watching at the time. I was sad-but-not-shocked to see it get cancelled. Would love to see it finished via a book.

ADHD here, and Claude code has been a game changer for me as well. I don’t get sidetracked going lost in documentation loops, suffer decision paralysis, or forget what I’m currentl…

Probably a similar amount that it would have taken him to hire someone from the start, except he’s already validated the product and market.

Claude Code pro is ~$20USD/ month and is nearly enough for someone like me who can’t use it at work and is just playing around with it after work. I’m loving it.

Stupid questions are far better than stupid mistakes due to not asking those questions.

To misuse a woodworking metaphor, I think we’re experiencing a shift from hand tools to power tools. You still need someone who understands the basics to get the good results out o…

I hate to say it, but pet cats kill an estimated ~390 million animals annually (in Australia). They should also be on a leash and not allowed to roam freely.

With the caveat that I’m still learning elixir+ash and just building a small private project, I’ve bought the beta book and it really helped get my head around the concepts even th…

I wfh pretty much 100%, and have inattentive adhd. I’ll occasionally go spend a day at a WeWork, either with other workmates, or by myself. On days that I’m with workmates, I get n…

I like NetScript, give a little callback to Netscape.

Lots of complaints about the new windows, but just wait 100-200 years and they’ll be seen as historical items that shouldn’t be replaced as well.

I hate to be that guy, but just a reminder that if you’re implementing a production system - even if it’s an internal tool - please don’t return 418 as a joke unless you really are…

I’m salaried and I still get extra payments for being on-call, plus call out payments when I catch a call. Don’t work for free.

If there is something that you would like to do in your own time that you can’t do because of a work requirement, your work should be compensating you back in time or money. Can’t …

The sports clubs that depend on pokies also cease to exist - they become pokies venues that also have a sporting arm. They begin to drain the community instead of contributing back…
