sometimes my devices will make noises that seem to go off for no reason. it really stresses me out though, I can't help but always think something is doing it and if it's not me, then what?

replied to:

what kind of noises? drives spinning up/fans ramping up?

replied to:

random beeps and a sound that seems like the notification but it just isn't. I don't know maybe I'm crazy

replied to:

Would a CO monitor help here? I mean to err on the side of caution etc.

replied to:

I don't believe I know what that is

oh, I may not be able to get this since i am too young to purchase anything online and I lack the funds. I will definitely urge my family to get it though, because I do constantly have issues of hearing things or believing someone is watching me

How do you define slop in relation to ? For me, it is how quickly you get to an unmaintainable state- the acceleration into something that becomes difficult to work. I talk more about it here: hellodavid.dev/blog/slop

replied to:

Not that I think we're close to a canonical definition (as if we'll ever all agree on one) but my team has defacto adopted the definition of code that the developer responsible for it doesn't understand, approve of and essentially has now honestly reviewed. Basically anything which leads to cognitive debt.

replied to:

I agree, I don't think that there will ever be one canonical definition, but I like this definition as well, as it places the onus on the actual person creating the slop. Thank you for sharing!

Onboarded on Claude Team with Unlimited credit usage. In the first day, subscription limits were hit and then it silently went on spending 530 EUR in credits before I noticed.

replied to:

In a single day? That’s insane. It’s 5 months on the 100$ Codex which is practically unlimited.

replied to:

In a few hours, yes. Token-based pricing is insane.

replied to:

I knew token-based was more expensive but didn’t imagine that much. Which is why u can’t compete making alternative coding agents, their own subscriptions are much cheaper, but why they do it on their own Teams package is weird. Maybe targetting companies they feel they can pay.

…

replied to:

Yes, that's for enterprises, that want SSO, governance, budgeting, data protection, etc etc. For C-level they are interested in "how much do we pay for AI", and with personal subscriptions you can't answer => can't manage it. This 530 EUR is the price for that learning.

For , the tension between & to eat healthy is an interesting problem. If you don't have time, it is difficult:

to afford real food

replied to:

Yea, aside from the money, sourcing is a big problem, one thing I noticed when trying to at some point was that there are zero vegan snacks in ordinary neighbourhood stores, so that didn’t last very long.

replied to:

Choice is definitely a problem. We notice it when we go to our cabin, about a 2 1/2 hour drive away. The grocery store there targets for its local community. It is beef-centric and often boxed foods -- which is not our diet. Access -- or lack thereof -- is the worst kind of problem. illustrate the historical and complex nature.
