Two adults, small kitchen, one free shelf. The slow cooker does chilli, pulled pork and stews and I have never once been unhappy with the result. Everything I read about sous vide is steak, and we eat steak maybe twice…
My city library card gets me Mango for free and I'd been paying about $8 a month for something else. Two weeks in, the free one feels more conversational and less gamified, which I like, but there's no streak and I've…
No audience anywhere, no list, and I am not going to become a person who posts threads. Writing is the one channel I would actually keep doing. But everything I read says a new domain cannot rank for months, so I cannot…
Same month, same site. The two analytics tools are 36% apart and I can't reconcile them. My own database is the only thing I'd swear to, but it only knows about people who signed up, so it can't give me a conversion…
Seasoned a new 14 inch carbon steel wok on the hob following instructions heated it until it blued, wiped oil, repeated four times. It went a nice bronze colour. Weeks later the surface still feels tacky to the touch,…
Started the trip filtering a litre in about ninety seconds, by day four it was taking five or six minutes and my hands were cramping. I backflushed with the syringe every evening with filtered water. The sources were…
Trying to flag rows: in F2. I get a result in F2 and absolutely nothing in F3 downwards, not even blanks. If I drag the plain IF down it works perfectly on every row, so the logic is right. What makes ARRAYFORMULA give…
Coming from BEM, so this may just be a me problem. I have a card element whose className is 38 classes long including four responsive variants and two hover states, and it takes up three lines in the editor. It works.…
Ring says I average around 38 minutes of deep sleep a night with total sleep around seven and a quarter hours, and every article I read tells me that is low. Subjectively I wake up fine, get through the day without…
Read heavy internal dashboard. Roughly 2 GB today growing slowly, 30 req/s sustained during working hours, mostly indexed single table reads with two or three joins on the heavier pages. Writes are maybe 1% of traffic.…
I've got gym access twice a week and rings at home for the rest. Realistically the only time both fit is Tuesday and Thursday evening, back to back, around 75 minutes total. Right now I do squats and rows first because…
Bought a bushy ficus elastica six years ago. Same east window, same 20cm pot, watered when the top few centimetres dry out, fed through summer. It is alive and it puts out maybe four leaves a year, and it has slowly…
We have been quoted for eight sash windows and full replastering of two rooms and both the number and the timeline are roughly triple what I had in my head from watching too much renovation television. Partly I want to…
Two pairs, winter, and every run leaves them orange to the laces. Hand scrubbing takes me twenty minutes a pair and I'm doing it three times a week. My machine has a cold delicate cycle with a low spin option, and I…
Winter, parked, nothing running but a 12V compressor fridge and a small ceiling fan on low. I go to bed at 100 percent and wake up around 20, which is roughly 160Ah for maybe fourteen hours. The fridge is rated 45W.…
My mother has kept one in the door of every fridge she's owned and replaces it every three months like clockwork. I've done the same for years without ever checking whether it works. Is there anything behind it, or is…
node 20, deploy artifact is about 14mb zipped and most of that is one large sdk plus a date library i use in three places. cold start sits around 1.2s and warm requests are 40ms. before i spend a day on bundling i want…
I assumed I had bought a year of cover and then a renewal notice arrived at month five with a rate about twelve percent higher. No claims, no tickets, same car, same address. Is the six month term standard practice and…
says requirement already satisfied. Running my script says ModuleNotFoundError: No module named requests. I am on Windows, I have Python from the store and also one from python.org, and at some point I made a venv and I…
Bought a decent sized sword six weeks ago, it dropped nearly every original leaf within ten days. New growth is coming but the leaves are half the size and a washed out yellow green, with the veins staying darker. Inert…
Shocked the well with chlorine in April following the usual procedure, ran taps until the smell was gone, and the orange staining in the toilet tank and on the bathroom fixtures cleared up. Three weeks later it was back…
I've got a comm unit already and the stock speakers are useless above about 80 km/h, so I end up at maximum volume, which is both distorted and probably not great for my hearing. I wear earplugs, which I know is part of…
Acoustic guitar and one voice, spare bedroom with a carpet and a wardrobe, and I want to release the songs rather than make demos I apologise for. I already own the laptop and a pair of closed back headphones I like. I…
Reminder feature. User picks a time, we send a push. Roughly 5,000 a day spread over 24 hours, and they can be edited or cancelled right up to the moment they fire. Option A: a Durable Object per user holding an alarm…
Coming from Next. Building a marketing site plus a small dashboard section in Astro 5. I've got a nav with a mobile menu, a theme toggle, a newsletter form, a pricing calculator and an FAQ accordion. Right now each is a…
