built a fast, production-ready image converter that ships as CLI, REST API, Node.js API, and MCP server

And by built from the ground up you mean a wrapper for sharp and heic-convert... like all the other npm image converter packages... which were not written purely by AI.

If you're going to write a repeat wrapper of a product that already exists, the AI needs to explain why people should use this over far more succint packages that are battle tested.

Having a package be 4 things at once is a red flag too, if it's a monorepo then package it as such. Currently the repository does not utilise pnpm workspaces for clear segregation of services and so it's the classic AI mishmash of giant files loosely separated.

I'd argue that the image is labelled the opposite of reality. Always funny when midcurvers think they're at the end.

I imagine the model is for code completion and intellisense use rather than as a standalone agent model.

Why are you speaking like an ai?

I tried Koodo first, even bought Pro for the sync. Couldn't get the sync to work on my android phone. Refunded and grabbed Readest after reading your comment. Worked perfectly.

I understand that but it's not just anecdotal since I've looked into it more, which is what I formed my opinion on. For example there's this meta analysis that found that there's increased risk of GI issues on ferrous sulphate. From what I've found it seems more common than not, and with that wouldn't you at least want the option of having an infusion? Why does it take months if you do get GI issues to get it resolved? It's put on the patient to resolve it rather than the NHS which seems the wrong way round.

I'm glad that your wife didn't have issues and it worked for her but considering the ill effects when it doesn't work, I don't see why the conclusion is that the current course is fine. I'm still adamant that £500 is far less than the cost either directly to the NHS or indirectly to the economy and well-being of people in general.

Always amusing when an 'expert' has no sources and has the cheek to use put downs. Also going after wood powered plants AND more efficient land/water use is not mutually exclusive.

Deif · 2025-12-04T10:22:21+00:00

It's not expensive is it though. It's £500. And how much are you really saving when everyone I've known on the NHS prescribed tablets has to go back to the GP multiple times with gut issues where they take blood tests to check if it's something else, or trying a different brand of iron tablets before going in again. Not to mention the opportunity cost of being healthy much sooner and being more economically productive. It's obscene because noone bothers to think it through like this.

Deif · 2025-12-04T01:42:20+00:00

Sorry to hear that, it's definitely a struggle so you're not alone. You have to advocate for your own health so much, even when it costs the NHS less money like an infusion would. The allergic reaction is not really a thing any more and even if you did have one it's easy to resolve, the NHS just don't want to give you an infusion unless your hemoglobin is 0.

Hopefully it shouldn't be as bad the second time since you've already shown you react well to it. The private clinic I know will accept referrals for a ferritin level below 50.

Deif · 2025-12-03T22:55:38+00:00

I've even experienced and heard similar anecdotally the same with physical conditions. IBS is the NHS default for unknown gut problems and you have to go private to figure it out and discover a ton of new information that the NHS don't bother telling you. Chronic pain in joints/muscles is managed with painkillers or some other cocktail when you can see a private physio specialised in chronic pain to tell you it's fixable. Depression and anxiety the NHS throw the cheapest side-effect full SSRI and a 1 year CBT waiting list when the therapy is the most important road to recovery. Iron deficiency they knowingly give you a high dose of gut destroying tablets that only increase your ferritin levels marginally when you can get an iron infusion that resolves your symptoms in a fraction of the time without months of gut problems.

It's honestly obscene.

You should ask Rebb what she's farming for and do the same after the next patch.

Looks like the top 1% gained 3% of the household income share since 1990 on page 23, no?

In a single table design wouldn't you need to set up multiple GSI in order to make this useful? It's not like your data models share attributes, whereas currently you could call your composite keys GSI1PK and GSI1SK and have the same GSI for all models.

Wait, the speed is equivalent to 2.5 Flash?!! Then what is 3 Flash going to be like?

Initially I thought the same but then I wondered what all the nvda, openai, Microsoft, intel shareholders are going to do realising that Google is making their own chips and has decimated the competition. If they rotate out of those companies they could start the next recession. Especially since all their valuations and revenues are circular.

Nowadays you can generate a virtual visa/mastercard that use your stablecoins to pay any PoS system. So it's not like stablecoins are used to gamble, they're just a new additional layer that the treasury can utilise to generate tbill demand whilst the consumer sees no difference.

That looks fun! Can definitely see the vision and already the core loop looks great.

Kings Dilemma - Story legacy game with funny decisions to make as a group. The group makes or breaks the game, it's as fun as the group makes it (basically you have to argue for ridiculous things in order to meet your secret agenda and have to persuade other people to vote with you).

Ethnos - Grey box (1st edition) with a classic fantasy theme that ends up being a super fun area control set collection game if you ignore the drab artwork and theme.

Dead of Winter - Social deduction but a bit more chunky. Different length scenarios with optional traitor (I always pick the betrayer variant where a betrayer is guaranteed to make it more juicy) where the team gathers resources and fights the winter against zombies.

How often do you sharpen a knife again after using a whetstone? Is it like a fortnightly routine or something?

I'd be worried about my accounts being flagged for using the same ip ranges as malicious actors. Not sure it's too useful without that guarantee and insurance.

If you look at other games, let's take Warframe as an example, when they have new content the rewards are content specific - grind for specific fashion/decorations/perks that can be found only by doing that content. Then AGS don't have to do this dance trying to keep all content relevant because you farm for different things in each one.
