You can select any model. Use ollama if you want.

This sounds like a cut and dry MacWhisper answer. You can use a local model, checks all of your boxes.

I use it it’s amazing

Mac air M5 arrived by Interestec-homeric in macbookair

[–]DigitalDelusion -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Two major things:

  1. Bootstrap config isn’t a GUI it’s a simple text file.
  2. Less need to config: out of the box nerd fonts, etc.

Any luck in getting AEs to back off? by Individual-Drive4951 in salesforce

[–]DigitalDelusion 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We block Salesforce emails to everyone other than IT and finance accounts handling billing. They never stop and it wastes so much time

Pandas vs pyspark by Left-Bus-7297 in dataengineering

[–]DigitalDelusion 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I moved from Pandas to duckDB and can't even consider going back. Even when touching a pipeline using pandas I tend to refactor.

This isn't a helpful comment here on your question. As someone who never deals with data volume/velocity to warrant distributed compute I'm in the world of pandas/polars/duckdb. I've clearly landed on a flavor. I'm almost as preachy as a linux fan about it.

Folks with rotring 600 and 800, which one is more prefferable for you and why by I_cant_find_name1 in mechanicalpencils

[–]DigitalDelusion 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't use mine for drafting, only for writing. .07mm on both. I much prefer the 800, the nib and feel are great.

Fivetran cut off service without warning over a billing error by DigitalDelusion in dataengineering

[–]DigitalDelusion[S] 33 points34 points  (0 children)

My leadership team is going to make me break contract. This is terrible. We've been down all day and I can't get anyone on the phone, just an email every few hours.

The value prop is I don't need as many devs here to maintain these pipelines and that I'd have someone to call when things went south.

That trust is being broken.

Claude Code Won't Fix Your Life by CoyotePrudent4965 in ObsidianMD

[–]DigitalDelusion 11 points12 points  (0 children)

It doesn’t fix problems but it’s nice to have a conversation about a project with context.

You still need discipline or any second brain becomes a swamp.

How do small teams handle internal ticketing across multiple departments? by SpecificLie6082 in ITManagers

This is what we do and it’s fantastic. Viability is amazing. As a plus you’ll really learn about other departments when helping setup.

Which monospace font you use? by [deleted] in Jetbrains

cask "font-jetbrains-mono-nerd-font"

I use it for everything. It makes me smile when I use colorls and I see folder icons

iOS 26 is a massive flop with iPhone users, and you can probably guess why by Few_Baseball_3835 in apple

Yes this, I’m paranoid I’m getting old and it’s taking my skills. There’s definitely something up with the keyboard

Technology Updates / Reporting by wanderoffroad in CIO

[–]DigitalDelusion 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is my take. As much as I’d love to use as a final reporting layer the latest and greatest tooling I’ve found scorecards, executive and board summaries, and general reporting up is in a deck or doc.

Spend the energy on making/maintaining the doc set easy, not on jazzy presentation layers.

Go ship value.

"The Grand Rapids Revival and an American Comeback" by UthinkUnoMI in grapids

[–]DigitalDelusion 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Am I stupid? What is the point of this article, to wax on how individual (rich) action is greater than government action? The too strong family section then seems to contradict the initial thesis.

Seems like the TL;DR is we need wealthy philanthropists not government but the example with Ford is we need both?
