I remember seeing something similar on Masters of the Air, where the Resistance would question downed airmen : https://youtube.com/shorts/EJmmq0yc08U?si=dnFXr0IgJh18pmp-

One interesting thing to note is that many people use more force than necessary with their fretting hand. This was certainly true of me. Some hold the guitar neck with some sort of death-grip. One useful exercise is to fret a note as you no

The faucet seems a bit drastic. I got a 1L (about 32oz?) spray bottle of Isopropyl alcohol, and use a small spray amount onto a microfiber cloth to clean iPhone and iPad screens. It’s really cheap and seems to last a long time, as only a s

When I started using systemd timers, I really liked the systemd-analyze calendar facility, to calculate n trigger times for a given calendar expression. For example, show the next five trigger times for the end of the last day when the mont

Yes, I think so. Often it doesn’t take much more than a glance for simpler edits.

I think you’re absolutely right and I’ve come to the same conclusion and workflow. I work on one file at a time in Ask mode, not Composer/Agent. Review every change, and insist on revisions for anything that seems off. Stay in control

I have been adding .env files to .cursorignore so far. I can see from that thread that the approach hasn’t been perfect, but it seems that the last two releases have tried to address that : “0.46.x : .cursorignore now blocks files from bein

I should do a lot more with Alfred, but apart from using it as a launcher my most used feature is the clipboard search. After invoking it by typing 'clip' into the box, I get an incremental search on all clipboard contents it has

I use Forklift instead : https://binarynights.com/ I can use it as an orthodox file manager (with the f keys I remember from Norton Commander). I also like using it to access remote filesystems over nfs and sftp, and also S

I've been using Jetbrains IDEs for quite some time. I currently use IntelliJ and Cursor together. Cursor is everything I hoped Jetbains AI would be. The TypeScript support in VSCode and derivatives (like Cursor) is great, unlike Jetbra

Possibly, depending on the listener. But why would I bother recompressing when the various media players in the house can deal with the FLAC files just fine? On a typical home wifi network, a track probably transfers in about a second.

I think the ZeroTier free tier is much more generous. I also like the client app, which lets you be connected to more than one network without switching. The API is also nice... I've hooked it up to an Ansible play, and it works well.

I think the .cursorrules and .cursorignore files might be useful here. Especially the .cursorrules file, as you can include a brief overview of the project and ground rules for suggestions, which are applied to your chat sessions and Cmd&#x

I quite like the Sony Bravia UI. I did intend to just use a connected Raspberry Pi 4B running LibreElec to play my own content, but I ended up using the Kodi app from the Google Play store, which was superior at the time (h264 and h265 hard

I agree with you. I’ve been using Cursor for a month or two, as it’s a great speedup and a big step forward in DX. I’ve also been periodically browsing r/cursor, to see if I can pick up any workflow tips. I can see a clear distinction

Yup, can confirm - for me, at least. At one stage, I started walking home from work at my fastest pace. 5 miles, 5 days a week. No other lifestyle changes. No significant weight loss. A few years later, I started tracking calories with myfi

That would be fantastic... I keep them both open on the same project, as there are some things IntelliJ does superbly. I evaluated Jetbrains AI and Copilot with VSCode, but they just didn't impress me. I tried Cursor, and subscribed a

I don't think so. I upgraded my Fitbit to a Fitbit 5 when I started getting arrhythmias a few years back. I used the ECG capture whenever I felt something was wrong. As the irregular beats graduated into episodes of what the medics ide

I take BP readings for someone who gets anxious about them too. The system we've arrived at is that I play music that relaxes them during the readings. They don't look at the numbers. The first one will be high, so I usually ignor

That's true, but I think music genres can be very tribal. At some point it just descends into fashion. I remember a quote I read that said there are really only two genres; things you like, and things you don't.

Again, my point was that even though we only have one direct representative, the governing party as a whole will be punished in the next election if they become deeply unpopular. If your rulemakers are immune to voter displeasure, it isn&#x

In the UK, politicians will often U-turn if they sense that a policy will make them unpopular and make the next election harder to fight. Governments can and do get punished on polling day every five years. Sunak paid for his unpopularity a
