my exact experience, and AI is especially fragile when you are starting new project from scratch.

Right know I'm building NNTP client for macOS (with AppKit), because why not, and initially I had to very carefully plan and prompt what AI has to do, otherwise it would go insane (integration tests are must).

Right know I have read-only mode ready and its very easy to build stuff on top of it.

Also, I had to provide a lot of SKILLS to GPT5.3


Also I'd add this question, why do so many developers and sysadmins think, that cloud companies always hire competent/non-lazy/non-pissed employees?

After every time I read "save effort with Electron", I go back to Win2K VM and poke around things and realize how faster everything is than M4 Max, just because value is value, and Electron saves some effort.

I do have an Apple ID, which was banned due to fraud and customer support couldn’t do anything about.

The thing is, that account was just used for dev. things for the US company, which builds/sells software for the US federal government (among the other US entities).

It would not be very wise to do fraud.


wouldn't it be faster/safer to upgrade to latest django/python rather than rewrite it in React/Go?


Python 2 to Python 3 in a Django codebase ... may be a full rewrite anyway.


Many people migrated Django projects from 2 -> 3. Certainly something that takes effort, but hardly a rewrite.


Nothing like a full rewrite. I migrated multiple projects, but while there is a significant amount of work involved its a tiny fraction of what a full rewrite would require.


Its fine, I ported quite a few Django libraries to python 3 at the time just because I wanted to use them.

2to3 gets you pretty far and theres not much in the rest.


Did it a couple of times. Not something you can do with your eyes closed, but not even close to the nightmare of upgrading a JS application or upgrading a rails app.


just a couple of days ago, I've moved my self hosted stuff from Cloudflare :)


given the current state of things, I'd take that slow boot over anything else ;)


The CPM difference in US vs. rest of the world is huge. If Albania has cpm near zero, it's not worth to show ads there.


Personally, the left ear.


Does it matter which side of the plane you are on or how close to the wing (engines) you are? I could imagine an audio difference between left and right if you were sitting at a window near an engine.


I did sit on both sides (one flight was next to wing) - did had same issue both times.

One thing that was common- I was sitting in a window seat.


Just got back from another flight, where my seat was in the middle of airplane (3 set of rows). No issues whatsoever. One thing I’ve noticed, if I press AirPods harder, I do start hearing hissing in my ears.


Seems pretty odd that all the reports are about the left ear.


with buds, whichever connects first (usually right) is the master, and the other bud connects to that one as the slave, instead of connecting directly to the source device. probably has something to do with that


Which would hint at a software issue. When it comes to ANC, both should behave identically


If I ask something in Lithuanian, EuroLLM will reply in Latvian lol.

I have to specifically tell something like this: “do you known Lithuanian language”, then it starts replying in Lithuanian


It seems there is some weird grouping of the language data which LLM cannot distinguish well. I wonder if it is the same for other similar languages like scandinavian or western slavic
