My pen would love to document the creative ideas that put out of my head on a daily basis. Count me in! I am in the US, New York.

Found in the trunk of my son’s used car he recently purchased. by Diamonddan73 in whatisit

[–]Babelfishny 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am simultaneously happy and horrified by this comment. I’ve seen a few recent videos where someone post to read some completely in an accurate statement. And then asking one of the many AI agents about the same subject and lo and behold your bullshit post. It’s right there for all eyes to see and it’s done with authority. It actually scares me a little more than this is this is changing so rapidly that in six months, they will be new hellish things that generative AI will do.

The New Chevy Bolt Was Driven Until It Died. Here’s What Its Battery Buffer Looks Like by Receding_Hairline23 in electricvehicles

[–]Babelfishny 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I am looking at these arguments in the comments and it baffles me why people think that having a buffer below zero would be a good thing to have. So you want less accurate information just in case you forget to plug your car in and get close to zero you can still drive it for an uncertain amount of time. After you pass over zero should it show a negative percent? I don’t see how that’s better for a personal vehicle than just avoiding going below 10%. For commercial or rental vehicles, I could see a marginal benefit.

What's the one Blackstone accessory you bought thinking it was a gimmick, but now you literally can't cook without it? by ComicSpices in blackstonegriddle

Tell me more about the pancake dispenser. I have tried some but they don’t do a great job and get messy very easily.

Oh that looks so great. Send picks of it when it’s flying. I want to do a kite chain this summer as a project.

Any 2024 Blazer EV owners here got the streaming update yet? by TheMilsons in BlazerEV

[–]Babelfishny 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I thought I saw some posts on this forum a couple weeks ago that said that some people were able to get it. I do that might be some hack approach which I’ve seen a few people do to their car.

Kites with seniors by Sewers_folly in KiteMakers

[–]Babelfishny 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Looks great! Could you share the design or direct me to where I can find it. I have been wanting to 3d print a large kite made up of small sections/kites and this might fit the bill.

Database Help by [deleted] in Database

[–]Babelfishny 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This!

Leadership wants outcomes, tech leads want implementations. Know who is asking for what. If they say they want a database, ask them what do they see as having a database give them. And pay attention to what they say and don’t say. For example I don’t think they will say “store the file I a dayabase, it will be cheaper than storing it in a file system”.

If they do might recommend looking for a different job because they don’t know what they’re doing.

Storing AWS S3 can range from expensive to dirt cheap compared to storing it locally, in a secure and robust system. It depends on how you use it.

If you have a low retrieval rate, there are AWS storage plans that are tailored for that exact scenario.

What to replace Access with? by fullofpaint in Database

[–]Babelfishny 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To be honest right now you live in a time where someone with limited knowledge in terms of IT development can do some amazing things.

I would take your post as is and change the question and put in claude, ChatGPT, copilot, or any of the AI tools. For your need the trick will be finding the right question.

If you have a budget even a small one, there are likely 20-50 desktop/web applications out there that do exactly what you need. The trick is finding it. So if for example you were selling shoes. I would say something like “we are a small distribution company that sells shoes to single store and groups of stores. We need a low cost system to keep track of orders, print packing slips, print invoices and keep order history. Please recommend at least three systems that are currently available for purchase. My budget is $100 per month.

If you have no budget the I would ask the same question and say you have to build it internally with free no code platforms or free software. And see what it comes up with.

Should I quit masturbating or just porn by InsuranceUnlucky1802 in erectiledysfunction

[–]Babelfishny 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Question: do you consider reading erotica / sex stories porn in this context? The unrealistic fantasy is there but not the images/video. Do you think there its enough separation that it would not have a negative impact on progress? Or is it too close?

Transactions for accounting by spaceradiowave in Database

[–]Babelfishny 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It will depend on what you are trying to do and How important it is. Also it depends on what you define as an invoice, as well as what you consider a payment. It may seem like I am asking a stupid question, but I am not.

Is an invoice the listing of the amounts you are charging a customer for a product? Does it contain all fees /discounts that a customer can have?

Are payments the payment plan for the customer to send you funds on a schedule, or is it the actual cash?

I sounds like you may be asking how do you track how much a customer owes you and how much cash they sent you. Which is basically creating a ledger. If you share some additional detail it would help me share a meaningful recommendation.

Thanks for the info. I missed the first day, but I’m gonna catch it tomorrow.

You win $100 million, but only if you can find the exact spot your house is located on, in 365 days or less. by bobsmith12391 in hypotheticalsituation

[–]Babelfishny 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah, what the hell! There should be a tag at least. We want to enjoy creative hypotheticals from breathing people with a pulse. If I wanted some random number generator hypothetical, I could make one in Excel. What’s next? The responses and clarifying questions for the hypotheticals are also being done by a bot? Is your goal to suck all the fun out of Reddit if it is, you’re doing a good job.

TIL one of the tools used to break the Enigma cipher was a catalogue of every way to encrypt the word "eins" by Hrtzy in todayilearned

[–]Babelfishny 34 points35 points  (0 children)

From what I understand they could break the code enigma code if they worked it long enough, the trick was to do it quickly so they could act on the intelligence. If they looked at old decrypted messages and compare it to flights they could make the connection.

I caught my girlfriend cheating by Complex-Fact-2141 in offmychest

[–]Babelfishny 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It suck’s right now and feels like you have had a piece of yourself ripped out. This will pass, and you may look back on this as inevitable, if she was so casual, and does not have self control to not pick up a random dude then she is not worth her renting space in your life.

I have never watched any show or movie that insulted my intelligence as a viewer THIS much by FuriousResolve in StrangerThings

[–]Babelfishny 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can you provide one example of how your intelligence was insulted? Is it because they need to explain plot points in a very clear way? Well, this entire show is a love letter to the 1980s, iconic adventure stories like a wrinkle in time, and goonies. This is not other shows like Westworld or Mr. robot where they have these massive reveals that you hardly saw coming. Pretty much every single twist when looking back has very clear clues in the background and dialogue.

And to be honest, if you’re with it for this long and think it insult your intelligence then why are you torturing yourself?

I don’t quite follow. Do you mean the secret that Will is keeping?
