shaneofalltrad··on OpenCode – Open source AI coding agent
Ok I get it now, same with the vim comment above, it seems VSCode has the more IDE setup while OpenCode is giving the vim nerdtree vibe? I'll have to take a look, it makes sense to possibly have both for different use cases I guess.

What would be the advantage using this over say VSCode with Copilot or Roo Code? I need to make some time to compare, but just curious if others have a good insight on things.

But cannabis the needs heat to convert, it’s more likely it evolved with Human influence considering the years of overlapping land races tied to our trade routes

Exactly my case, powerful Ubuntu setup, App sucks, Teams in Chrome sucks, but soon as I run on Edge, no problems
shaneofalltrad··on Rats filmed snatching bats from air
Rats are extremely predatory, I once as a kid worked at a Reptile importer and a handful of rats escaped, they destroyed the mice from under their screen/grated cages. Almost as traumatic as when I learned how to dispatch an adult rat on the side of the table before feeding it off to the reptiles at 15 years old.
shaneofalltrad··on Air pollution may contribute to development of lung cancer in never-smokers
There was a study 5-10 years ago on Cannabis use and lung cancer, showing #1 cigarette smokers, #2 non-smokers and #3 cannabis smokers. Seems to be a ratio of healing properties combined with carcinogens that determine some of this? Then of course genetics, that seems broad as well.
shaneofalltrad··on Vibe Coding Is Overrated
It’s more about the qty of minutes/hours AI can crunch information for you, reducing the context switching or loss of context. A lot of the back and forth will go away, replaced with prompt and planning skills needing to be more specific, for long complex runs as needed, then clean up short runs based on UAT and QA inspection after.

shaneofalltrad··on GitHub Copilot: The Agent Awakens
I have had Cursor review all my file content solving similar things, but I would think it's limited to VSCode search capabilities and IMHO it's not great. I love how Pycharm handles indexing so search is fast and accurate. If they ever get agents going at the same quality as Cursor I would probably go to Pycharm for that advantage alone.
shaneofalltrad··on GitHub Copilot: The Agent Awakens
If they don't, it will be Cursor, Trae, Cline, Roo Code or Goose? Seems this is coming this year in a big way regardless if Copilot does it or not. I'm guessing we all have to pivot how we work or get left behind?

Well dang, I am great at tinkering like this because I can’t remember things half the time. I wonder if the ADHD QA guy solved this for the devs?

shaneofalltrad··on Top Open-Source End-to-End Testing Frameworks of 2024
Comparison of End-to-End Open-Source JavaScript Testing Frameworks: Playwright, Cypress, NightwatchJS, Puppeteer, Selenium WebDriver, and TestCafe

Hi there! I’m diving back into blogging and would really appreciate constructive feedback. I’ve recently revamped my Hexo blog’s UI and plan to dedicate more time to writing as a way to make learning more interactive and engaging. This post is a comparative study of popular JavaScript testing frameworks, and I’d love to hear your thoughts!

shaneofalltrad··on America is becoming less "woke"
This comment is probably the most correct reason "woke" has a negative tone now, because they chose to use it as a way to ignore their behaviors or associations that might not be the most empathetic of others, aligning it with this "woke" movement allows them to turn their back on the topic. Hard for those that care about topics to engage in bringing to light when half the Country puts your comment on blast for being too "woke". It's like Idiocracy at it's infancy.

shaneofalltrad··on Microwaves: A Haven for Bacterial Diversity
I once had a baby spider living in the bottom corner of my microwave that I used about 5 or so times before it finally died. That's when I realized my understandings of microwaves was a bit cold in the edges.
shaneofalltrad··on TOTP tokens on my wrist with the smartest dumb watch
Wow this is really interesting, I work at Nixon and would love to get something like this going on a Nixon digital and/or would possibly be able to get a few free watches if the author wanted to do a similar write up.
shaneofalltrad··on Can Weed Improve a Workout?
What an ignorant response. First of all, there are a significant amount of studies that now point to the benefits down to a cellular level, while alcohol is now considered bad for any amount. You are living on old information and if you took some time to research the topic you will realize all of the negative was based on racist policies to lock up minorities.
shaneofalltrad··on FDA says marijuana has a legitimate medicinal purpose
I would bet that was strain related as mentioned in this thread, it took me going through 30 strain’s before realizing this for myself.
shaneofalltrad··on FDA says marijuana has a legitimate medicinal purpose
I feel the cannabinoid and terpene profiles determine these REM cycle disruptions and grogginess just the same as they affect the onset of being sleepy. I sleep great on indica based land races, but terrible on most modern strains that have a higher THC percentage or hybrids of sativa strains. Hopefully in the future we can break down these differences in the profiles of each strain rather than having blanket studies and opinions that might be neglecting that these profiles can be significantly different in their effects, especially regarding sleep and medical use.
shaneofalltrad··on Nobody ever gets credit for fixing problems that never happened (2001) [pdf]
I found the idea Scrum being efficient when done right was true at one company I worked at. Everyone was committed to the process, the Scrum team included debt as a priority for 20% of the effort and everyone had a fairly accurate velocity that we could bake in an additional 20% of your work as your own interests, so stakeholder priorities filled that remaining 60%. Then we would pivot in some Sprints if any epic/team goals required a push to get done or other emergencies/bugs that required a change in priority.
shaneofalltrad··on A seafood firm wants to farm octopus. Activists say they're too smart for that
The confusion is how Animal Welfare (Sentience) Act 2022 determines this, with the wrong definition of sentient to determine legalities, even seeing news articles describing it as so, for example https://www.gov.uk/government/news/animals-to-be-formally-re...
shaneofalltrad··on A seafood firm wants to farm octopus. Activists say they're too smart for that
Whatever happened to the Roach farming as a viable option for quality protein farming? I could see a flow like algae/hemp -> roach -> fish -> human
shaneofalltrad··on A seafood firm wants to farm octopus. Activists say they're too smart for that
This seems to be a very generalized statement when there is a lot of variation to consider. There are 33,000 fish species, some being specialized feeders of algae, to 100% live fish, all designed for processing each food differently. Are you speaking on a specific fish that is commonly "farmed"? I could see Salmon needing this 20kg and not even contain the quality fats they get in the wild, resulting in a lower quality food on top of being more impactful to the environment.
shaneofalltrad··on Samsung forecasts 85% drop in profit as chip sales falter
I was a fan as well, until my Samsung TV broke, then my fold phone lost sound when open and the screen started cracking right after the warranty ( all known issues ). I complained to a few people and found they had issues with TV's and appliances as well. You do some searches online and there seems to be a lot of unhappy customers, but good to hear someone's investment is paying off.

Anyone recommend a good animation library to create 3D builds for watches as an example as I need it to be very detailed? I am about to start investigating and this is looking really interesting for the purpose.
shaneofalltrad··on Salesforce is shuttering Slack’s remote work research group Future Forum
I see it in most companies I work at, I see the most aggressive delegation minded extroverts climbing to the top and those heads down getting shit done stepped over much of the time or even considered less important because they are not playing the social game. We need a study to see this?
