This is so cool! I did just about spit out of coffee reading the words vibe coded fish tinder though. But a smart thing to implement.

Thing is most businesses take time to build. If you're in "dire need", like really about to starve, you probably would take a job you might even be overqualified for.

Even with that being the case finding a new job is a hassle and means you have an interruption in pay and insurance. Gives me a lot of incentive to just work at BigCo and not worry about it until -I- want to worry about it.

Yes but I think the point is a lot of interviewers do not go for pseudocode. They want syntax perfect solutions on a whiteboard.

There isn't ifttt for Nest Secure yet, but it does integrate with Nest Cam and nest Thermostat. My workplace was across the street from my house though so I had trouble with the GPS stuff on ifttt when I tried it a few years ago. Bah.

Once I get that "I'm getting kinda stuck in a rut here" feeling I usually take a lap around the building. (~5 min). That's usually enough. I also go to the gym throughout the week but I usually am focusing on the workout

They just can't use the app to control it. The physical lock still works, so they just have to use the key. For a night it turned into a regular lock.

I see where you're coming from. I think I just don't like the "complain about it" angle. I can't change the language itself. I feel like a lot of people stress about those issues and can talk about them at length. I

+1 to Khan Academy. Explanations are super clear. Their website allows you to work through practice problems too, which I think is the most important thing.

This seems better, it's more about tradeoffs. I don't really feel the need to complain about languages. I just find the workaround and implement it and move on. All languages have trade offs. I can tell you that this one lends mor

I agree, I think it's better to ask what some of those trade offs are. What's this tech good or bad at? I'm not gonna complain about a language feature that I can't do anything about. I'm gonna implement the work ar

Unsubscribe from r/politics and subscribe to r/writingprompts instead. You get free short stories, a good way to read a little something before bed. Just implement a limit of some sort on yourself. "I'll only read 2 stor

Just google "yourInterest discord reddit" and someone is usually talking about it. I'm in a keto diet discord & joined a programming channel recently. I see N64 discord servers. I don't know if they're busy, but

Join a discord channel for whatever game you're playing. You can voice chat with people and make new friends that way. I'm in the League of Legends discord and party up with strangers all the time. If the game goes well or people

Almost everyone in my life knows to turn the lights off when they leave the room too. It was also drilled into us as kids to not waste energy. I've drilled it into my SO. It's really not that difficult of a habit, switches are by

This. It kind of depends on my mood or what I'm doing, but reading is generally so much faster. Though I realized a while back that this is mostly true for people who read quickly. Some of my older family members prefer videos to havi

No. Even without a list I'd still have all these things to do. Having a list doesn't change anything except I don't have to stress about remembering and forgetting.

Perhaps they meant the entire album was played 96 times. 66:39 x 96. I myself am a serial song repeater. I use it a lot for focus. Noise to drown out other sounds, but familiarity so I don't start thinking about the music instead of wo

I do think in some ways, because UX is constantly being pushed back even though it shouldn't be...you do kinda have to learn to work with what you've got. Programming is like that too. There's weird restrictions from legal, s

I too love fixing things where I can see the person's reaction. It is so satisfying. We are so often removed from the user and don't get that joy. I think as a dev it's a good exercise too, to stay grounded and avoid feature

I feel this way about smartwatches but they still blew up. -shrug- Different lifestyles I guess. Most of my family loves having Alexa but my cousin and I both agreed it seems pointless for us.

Thanks for mentioning this. This is one of the first use cases where it seems to be solving something more than insignificantly annoying to me. Especially for my non-tech friends who I am always having to adjust their TVs for. Gonna set up

Yeah but I always turn off lights as I leave a room anyways so it's not like I have to run through the house. The thermostat is on the way out too. I am considering getting a nest or something but that's just for the thermostat, n

Yeah but just glancing at an app is still faster. When you're poor you're constantly tired and low on time. I certainly still prefer using my bank's website to their automated phone teller as well. More info more quickly.

This. As someone who has been in poverty tools to help organize your limited time help take the load off immensely. This tool sounds really great, just being able to glance at it rather than trying to call.

Yeah but it's easier to look it up before you even go to the store. Why waste gas if you've only got $10, wait til next bit comes in a few days, that sort of thing.

Exactly. And the thing with old computers is they were kind of limited in scope because of hardware limitations. That in itself kind of gave you an idea of where to start because there wasn't much else on there. OP even mentions basica
