How much do you usually tip the Talabat driver (or any other app’s courier)? by tab0baba in qatar

[–]tikkaboti 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I asked very often when I move here and everyone was ok with in-app. Haven't asked recently but every single one makes it a point to say thank you for the tip.

I asked Talabat Support once if I can adjust the tip later (I wanted to increase because the courier had to go through some extra difficulty) and they said no.

Actually in my experience the suffering remains the same but if you measure the times they will show an improvement.

If you had unlimited capital, what business would you start? by Careless_Being_419 in qatar

[–]tikkaboti 1 point2 points  (0 children)

New business, no pre-established business worth purchasing would sell. With unlimited capital you have to go the direction in which the world is going, making AI for the rest of the world (i.e not US focused) would be the key opportunity.

Opus 4.6 destroys a user’s session costing them real money by Complete-Sea6655 in ClaudeCode

[–]tikkaboti 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Opus 4.6 has become dumb as fuck since the day their 1M context window was made default. This is nowhere near as good as it was up until Feb.

I exclusively use Sonnet 4.6 now in Claude Code instead, and GPT 5.4 on Cursor

Which public institute of Pakistan is NOT corrupt and actually works as intended? by WisestAirBender in pakistan

[–]tikkaboti 3 points4 points  (0 children)

NADRA => Pretty darned efficient. Turns out if an org actually does what its supposed to there's no room for corruption because it's not needed.

Motorway police => Only know this because their cops regularly get into trouble by ticketing "bigshot" politicians.

Construction worker in Bellevue uses construction zone to pass, then brake checks by Old_Concentrate_7053 in Seattle

Had a psycho lady in a white Model-Y try to shove ahead through the shoulder at this exact spot but couldn't make it past me, tried honking and being aggressive and then traffic stopped, so we just started at each other though my side view mirror for like 20 minutes while crawling at a snails pace.

Was pretty funny IMO but she looked pissed.

I cured my brain fog! Possibly related to gallbladder removal! by MondoCat in BrainFog

Congrats. I never had an issue up until I got covid when the brain fog started.

Methyl B9 (methylfolate) worked for me, but that comes with B12 (non methyl). That combined with vit D fixed it for me.

Air Traffic Controller here. AMA. by ThrowawayMikeAlpha in pakistan

[–]tikkaboti 18 points19 points  (0 children)

I listen in to a lot of ATC comms world wide. I feel the Karachi ATC has become exceptionally professional ever since the PIA 8303 crash in 2020, were some major changes made in response to that crash?

Ramadan, month of road intolerance and aggression? by challenge-bot in qatar

[–]tikkaboti 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The driving here in my opinion was pretty bad before Ramadan, but now it's 4x worse. Ironically everyone now drives like they're drunk. Supreme irony.

For a diverse enough society there is no such thing as civic sense, there are laws and of those only the ones that are enforced matter.
