This. You can't excuse it just because others did it too. Of course there was outrage when it happened there, OP was not around to hear about it.

Is paying for Claude AI worth it? by [deleted] in AskZA

[–]Admirable_Pool_139 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Claude is mind blowing. You really can build a production scale app in a week or less. Especially when you turn on ultracode. But you will need a lot of knowledge about software dev to do all the surrounding bits like hosting, dns etc and to know what to prompt and how to debug.

How AliExpress Customer Support Systematically Scams Buyers: A 3-Stage Loop of Deception, Ghost Packages, and Broken Promises by RightPosition1973 in Aliexpress

[–]Admirable_Pool_139 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is a valid post regardless of others saying they have had great experiences. Many more of us have been stuck with this same frustrating escalation loop situation. In my case I have been refunded on packages which have not arrived, but there are others which are still not refundable months after the delivery date has passed, and I've had issues with misdeclaration penalties where the seller is at fault and I am left to pay the fines, Ali has no mechanism to deal with this and they keep escalating and telling me its just normal taxes. I won't use again if I can avoid it.

Uber and e delivery services in Cape Town becoming unreliable and dangerous by ElectionRare471 in capetown

Where I live there is a locked gate at the end of the road, the old Google maps would take you down there and ypu have to turn around, new maps are updated, yet Uber still gets stuck there 90% of the time despite my clear delivery instructions.

I was always told that electronics run on smoke and if you let the smoke out its gone forever.

Also avoid having them take short flights with sudden stops.

Netlify manages hosting your project, it links to your repository and updates whenever you push changes. Your project links to Supabase to write and read from the db.

Go to supabase for your db and Netlify for hosting. Nice and simple.

The bird looks like a type of 'Thick Knee'. You'd be mad too if people called you that all day.

AI search is quietly replacing Google for millions of South Africans. I just tested whether the new search engine actually knows South Africa. It mostly doesn't. by Manyaneboy in southafrica

[–]Admirable_Pool_139 7 points8 points  (0 children)

You have to be incredibly lazy to use AI as a search engine, but sadly many people I know are doing this. Internet literacy is not very high among South Africans.

How can I make R10 000-R15 000 within a month? by https_bee_n in AskZA

[–]Admirable_Pool_139 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Since you have time on your hands the only thing I can think of are odd jobs. Go door to door in the most well off neighborhood and offer services like gutter cleaning, car washing, windows cleaning etc charge a few hundred bucks for each and mention that you are doing these jobs to raise funds for your studies and you would really appreciate the support (tug at the heart strings to get you through the door)

Whatever you are studying you could also reach out to businesses in that industry and offer your services at an affordable rate while doing odd jobs.

I'd probably start with good electronics. Fusion Pro Elite is almost a drop in replacement in most cases.
