I really enjoy this author's writing style: casual, informative, accessible, engaging and wasting no words.

That’s interesting to hear as for me Claude has been quite good about writing code that fails fast and loud and has specifically called it out more than once. It has also called out code that does not fail early in reviews.

Healthcare, education and childcare are either free or affordable in almost all developed countries.

Even in places where these services are expensive, it does not seem to be because the workers are highly paid.

I imagine personal trainers and childcare workers would see a drop in demand and perhaps also an increase in supply if a bunch of people suddenly lost their jobs to AI.

Nice! The visualization makes it easy to compare when cities are in the same hemisphere. It would be cool if there was an option to align the seasons when comparing cities in different hemispheres.

Nice observation ;-) If I'm reading the underlying data[0] correctly, it looks like the threshold for DEHT is significantly lower in the Vanilla tests (<4,500ng) vs the Strawberry tests (<22,500ng)

Edit: I guess that should impact the Substitutes category, though, and not the Phthalates category.

I agree but for the sake of discussion: could smart glasses fill this role?

I don’t disagree with anything you said and I don’t think anything you said disagrees with my original comment :)

I actually said in my comment that exploring a new language is one area I find LLMs to be interesting.

My experience so far has been: if I know what I want well enough to explain it to an LLM then it’s been easier for me to just write the code. Iterating on prompts, reading and understanding the LLM’s code, validating that it works and fixing bugs is still time consuming.

It has been interesting as a rubber duck, exploring a new topic or language, some code golf, but so far not for production code for me.

Congrats on the launch!

Here's one! (different character, but same issue it seems?)

> and I'd love to to hunt this down and fix it but have no clue where to start. I guess the first step would be to consistently reproduce the bug...

I am not familiar with Chromium at all, and I also don't run Linux on the desktop as I'm guessing from your video you do (?) so take this with a grain of salt...

I would start looking at the focus and key event handlers. e.g. maybe log the contents of pressed_keys and/or step thru the code from the beginning of the focus handler. It looks like this might be the place:

https://github.com/chromium/chromium/blob/01ab59ae08a38a361d...

https://github.com/chromium/chromium/blob/de351fd416ec36beeb...

Even if you can't repro it, you may be able to figure out the issue by just reading thru that code with some theories in mind. e.g. Since pressing another key seems to fix it, maybe look at what the code is doing there... my guess is the release event fixes whatever corrupted state it is in upon focus.

Or traveling. I imagine if you wanted to you could position the disc at any point between “on” and “off” by constantly flipping it back and forth.

The measurements taken by the watch can be viewed over time in the Health app on iOS. Try image searching for "Environmental Sound Levels" "iOS" "Health" to get an idea of how it looks. e.g. here is a screenshot: https://www.idropnews.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/04/Apple-H...

It sounds like this iOS app can write noise levels to the Health app too: https://apps.apple.com/us/app/niosh-sound-level-meter/id1096... so maybe that could let you test drive this if you don't already have the watch.

The Apple Watch Noise app measures loud noises. The Health app on iOS has a section called Environmental Sound Levels that shows the measurements over time on a chart. This of course doesn't help if you can also hear the noises, but it sounds like that is not the case?

> which is arguably worse because not only can you not access your phone backups but your email, calendar, drive, etc. is gone too

Some people use iCloud for email, calendar and storage so for them I imagine losing access to Apple ID would be just as bad.

All the most popular e2e testing frameworks and synthetic testing services will allow you to script interactions like page transitions.

For example here is a WebPageTest article on measuring performance of page transitions:

What are some of the issues?

Can you cite an example of such cherry picking? I’m only aware of counter examples e.g. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cherry_picking#:~:text=Cherr....

It is also sometimes called request collapsing.

My understanding is that the question mark is part of the alias name.

Some things to think about:

1) You still have a job

2) The company is still in business

3) Just because there was a round of layoffs doesn’t mean there will be more

4) But of course there may

5) But that is always the case, your job is never totally secure

6) If you do not already have a backup plan in place, thank the stars for the headsup to get started on that

7) A plan is a good antidote for anxiety, and in this case may consist of: savings, ability to lower expenses if needed, building and maintaining a professional network, being interview ready

8) Making a decision is another good antidote for anxiety. Decide to stay or decide to leave. If you stay and get laid off, use your plan.

I’m not sure I agree with the suggestion to quit and find another job simply because your company had layoffs. There is no guarantee the new place won’t have layoffs too.

If you don’t already have a network, you have a perfect opportunity to start one here by reaching out to keep in touch with some of the laid off folks.
