That’s a really sharp observation. Hopefully they take a belt and suspenders approach to these smoking guns in future.

Could you say more about your workflow? I don’t think I’ve ever gotten close to an hour of thinking before. Always curious to learn how to get more out of agents.

I usually just type with two thumbs and can type pretty quickly. Swiping always felt a bit awkward to me because my phone is too large to use one handed with one thumb swiping, and swiping with a finger felt awkward compared to just holding my phone in both hands and typing with both thumbs.

I imagine if you look at how most young people use their phone, it will mostly be the two thumb method and they will likely be very quick with it.

I can see their point if it genuinely is just a tracker/journal. It’s effectively just words. Should books that describe sex also be age restricted?

As they raised, games with gacha mechanics and violence receive a lower rating.

I feel the complaint is less about the app receiving that rating and more the flawed logic around how they are categorized given it’s effectively a health and wellness tracker.

Just in case you weren’t aware, you can’t use enzymatic laundry powder with merino because it will dissolve it and cause those holes. For years I thought I was going too hard on them or the holes were coming from moths, but then I read about it online. My merino gear now lasts a lot longer now that I wash it separately and with non-enzymatic powder.

Can you explain this? Why would they be in favour of outing someone against their will? I’m genuinely curious because on the surface it seems very cruel.

Sure, but this schedule is like, maybe 5 hours of sleep per night. Other than an extreme minority of people, there’s no way you can be operating on that for long and doing your best work. A good 8 hours per night will make most people a better engineer and a better person to be around.

Can it really be called an expression of yourself when you don’t write the lyrics or have any musical input on the song? This sounds more like having an idea for a song rather than an actual expression of yourself.

Would you still call it an expression of yourself if you paid an artist to write a song for you around an idea you had? I don’t think most people would generally refer to it as “expressing themselves” when they commission another artist.

I see this line of thinking online a lot, with people mentioning kids are excluded because they have green bubbles as if it’s some sort of highly superficial exclusion based on only wanting to talk to Apple users.

The main issue is that including a non-iMessage user changes the protocol of the group chat from iMessage to SMS and SMS can basically make group chats unusable.

I also don’t like that kids who don’t have an iPhone can’t participate in iMessage group chats, but when we make out like it’s just kids being cruel and not an actual functional incentive to not include those kids then we are losing sight of where the pressure should be applied.

I don’t like to give unsolicited medical advice, but if you haven’t, it could be worth looking into a fibre supplement like Metamucil. I just take the capsules so I don’t have to worry about having the drink and for me it’s a night and day difference compared to when I don’t get it. That said, I’ve never been as severe as you by the sounds.

I think a lot of people collect vinyl less for nostalgia reasons and more so to have a physical collection of their music. I think vinyl wins over CDs just due to how it’s larger and the cover art often looks better as a result.

I agree with the others saying to just go ahead with teaching him the CLI, however I also think you are overestimating the amount of work required for scoping out a GUI client. Pretty much all of the mainstream clients you could get dropped into and if you understand git, could understand the GUI within about 20 min of poking around.

I actually switched from CLI to a GUI a couple of years ago because I found one that was a pure UI over git (not trying to abstract it) and that had a lot of useful features that were difficult to do from the CLI. If looking for a GUI to check out, I’d really recommend sublime merge, created by the same people as sublime text. You can also see exactly which commands it’s running which makes for an easy transition imo.

With that said, I switched to Sublime Merge purely because of advanced features that were difficult in the CLI. For just learning git, the CLI should be totally fine.
