I want the vault format to be something I can inspect and export, my partner wants it to work on an iPhone without her having to think about it once. Budget is up to about USD 40 a year for both of us and we need a…
I sent chapter three (about 40 pages, methods heavy) on 12 March. Two follow up emails, plus one in person ask after a seminar where he said it was on his list. Nothing since. My committee meeting is booked for…
Our step reports a cache hit and restores in about 8 seconds, but the right after it still takes 2m40s and clearly unpacks everything again. The lockfile hasn't changed between the two runs I compared. Node 20, npm 10,…
I looked up a slang term I've heard my whole life and the dictionary gave a first citation in the 1920s, which is clearly much later than it must have existed. Then I noticed the same gap on several other entries. Is…
Two nights out last weekend, low was 38F by my thermometer, and I was cold enough by 3am that I sat up and put on my puffy inside the quilt. It's a 20F rated 850fp quilt, less than a year old, stored uncompressed in the…
About 14 months into French. I can follow a 30 minute podcast at normal speed and get maybe 80 percent of it, and I read news articles without a dictionary. But the second a real person asks me something in a shop my…
For about six months now, roughly every second Saturday, I wake up already in it. Weekdays I am fine. I wake at 6:20 on workdays and sleep until 9 or 10 at weekends, and I drink three coffees a day at work and usually…
Measure is . For most months it lines up with last year fine, but four or five months come back completely blank even though there are definitely sales rows in those months a year earlier. The date table is a query off…
Vacuum sealed a brisket flat, dropped it in at 155F, and by hour five it is bobbing with a good inch of meat above the waterline. I push it back down and it comes up again within the hour. The seal looks intact, no…
Same result on three different patterns now, all wovens, all cut on grain, all stay stitched within minutes of cutting. The front V stands away from my chest by roughly 2cm on each side and folds outward when I move. I…
The product is a small scheduling tool for music teachers. It has worked well enough for me and two friends for about five months. In that time I have redesigned the landing page four times, twice switching frameworks,…
Shooting street and travel, currently on the kit zoom which I find slow and honestly boring. 600 to spend, used market is fine. Torn between a fast 35mm prime, which everyone calls the classic street focal length, and a…
Large diaphragm condenser, treated with two foam panels behind the mic, singer about 20cm away. Every take has a honky midrange thing around what sounds like 300 500Hz that I end up carving out with a big EQ cut, and…
1920s house, lath and plaster ceiling in the front bedroom. Three separate hairline cracks running roughly parallel, each about a metre long. I've filled them with flexible filler and repainted twice over two years and…
Tuesday morning, in a meeting, phone face down. Customer emailed at 09:40 saying the app was returning errors. I saw it at 11:15. It was a database connection limit thing, fixed in twelve minutes once I looked. So the…
Same card component, two contexts. In the sidebar it is 240px wide and needs to stack. On the main page it is around 900px and should be a row with the meta on the right. I already have a hook in the codebase from…
I've been buying whatever bag is cheapest and someone at my gym told me the cheap stuff is 'cut with filler'. There's about a 4x price spread on the shelf between the plain bag and the one with a testing logo on the…
Brood box is full, eight of ten frames wall to wall brood and stores, and there is clearly a flow on because the brood box gained weight. Put a super of fresh foundation on four weeks ago with a queen excluder. The bees…
Page has been up for four months. About nine hundred visits a month, twelve trials, three paying. One of the three is someone I used to work for, which I feel weird about even though he pays full price and found it…
18x18x24 with a drainage layer, substrate barrier, about three inches of coco and sphagnum mix, springtails added at setup, and a large piece of cork and a driftwood branch. Two weeks in there is white fuzz creeping…
I resigned Tuesday with a written offer for 96k. My manager came back Thursday with 108k plus a title bump, effective immediately, no other conditions mentioned. I like my team here and the outside role is a slight…
Glasses wearer, 45 minutes each way, and getting a full face on and off over glasses twice a day is wearing me down. Modular obviously solves that. I'm told they're heavier and noisier and I'd like to know by how much,…
GET and POST to the same API work fine from the browser. PATCH gets blocked with the usual message about the preflight response not passing the access control check. If I hit the OPTIONS endpoint with curl I get a 204…
Three season UK hills, usually four nights. 8.4kg base: 1.9kg tent (two person, used solo), 1.4kg pack, 1.1kg sleeping bag, 550g mat, 480g stove kit with a 1.2L pot, 900g of clothing including a fleece and a hardshell,…
Second multi day trip. Reasonably fit, run a couple of times a week. Both times, days one to three I am dragging by early afternoon and asleep by 8pm, and then from day four onwards I feel fine and could go all day.…
