I don't like the way opencode prints your whole fkn .zshrc into the convo so it becomes part of the session, functionally no difference between using profile vars and giving it full view of a .env, but I feel like if it were an issue smarter people would have arced up about it

So I'm just switching back to claude code and doing routing to non anthropic models when I need it now (when I run out of quota)

This is just standard tech industry stuff and normies don’t get it

It sucks that a non negligible amount of AI development is motivated by software types being personally aggrieved by not being able to secure a booking at French Laundry, but at least those ones aren’t motivated by bloodlust or whatever

I hate when a brand has a really good product, but they spam me with the *worst* UGC ads featuring annoying people doing hollowed-out memespeak, every one making more less likely to purchase than the last...

Because they're trying to prosecute that guy for the Courts Vic data... this should cover me for mens rea right?

When I was a baby consultant everyone’s secret sauce was a ppt plugin from Accenture called QPT (huge pack of power user utilities) and everyone had a “plug” for the install file for it - I was still shit at slides though, didn’t have the artistry for it
Every Claude deck I see makes it abundantly clear that pre-AI McKinsey consultants were artists, not quants

It is somehow a key component of this activity that the dancers be wearing masks that are very cursed looking while they flip off walls and things

I’ve been saying a lot of this - I’m a little bit hard of hearing and can’t hear anything from them, we have “additionality” rules for power generation, and the water etc. with respect to West Footscray there are a couple of complaints from residents which do seem unspecious
I wrote about data centres in Australia after going to the biggest in Melbourne and getting questioned by security for taking suspicious photos 😅 Link below

Because of the climate around it, it’s on the data centre industry to address these issues, and I think the “cried wolf” issue is an interesting factor - wasting time and energy on fake issues like noise pollution will mean less credence for real ones - diesel generator backup

Every second iOS update completely borks autocorrect to the point where it feels like you’re having a medical event

Because it’s really funny and a very “soft drink in the water fountains” policy I’ve been comparing the councils with fortnightly bins and the stupidest is Baroondara which offers a tiny little mini bin of 80L with fortnightly pickup for $339 a year - the landlord special

Ppl have been saying the thing about charging for cabin baggage for years, because people really bloody do try it on, but key part was checked baggage was supposed to be included… without that you’re not solving the problem just making a new arbitrage of which fee is worth it

And by worth it I mean the checked bags fee versus the joy it clearly brings some people to make everyone’s boarding experience longer and stupider as we have to jenga 50 July cases while saving yourself maybe 10minutes on the other side (-whatever new cabin fee)

I’ve noticed that @googlemaps can’t handle the routing for the new Metro Tunnel stations yet, for example when you put in Footscray to Town Hall or State Library is has you back track to middle Footscray then pass back through Footscray on a train to get to the new loop stations

When we were looking for a house I vibe coded a chrome extension that roughly calculated walking distance to the nearest train, tram and bus stations (which is the highest indicator of property value to me). It was imprecise but fun and I will for sure be updating it for this :)
