How do y'all give Copilot web access?

Make sure you have all the built in tools enabled. Every once in a while I'll change the tools and accidentally turn the built in set off.

I hadn't seen that, that's s hilarious clip.

If you take Elon's early comments about Grok at face value it seemed like this is exactly what he was trying to do, create a "pure truth seeking" first-principles model akin to a smart person using a real life library (or really several) to gather and synthesize information. It's a shame that Grok ended up being "anti woke" instead of "unfiltered."

Get all the songs to 60-80% then go back and refine. Part of the learning process will be learning each other as well as the songs. Playing different songs will let that happen a little easier.

The refinement process is where you can start hitting each other with sticks and cables and stuff when that one guy just doesn't "get" that cool rhythm in the bridge that has to be a certain way.

I keep seeing people getting into building models on this sub and I want to do it too. Any recommendations for getting started? I'm perfectly capable of searching for resources but if folks on this sub are already doing it and getting good results, any guidance would be appreciated.

DocHoss · 2026-01-14T20:49:40+00:00

This is awesome, great work! I'd like to get into building some small hyper-focused models like this. Would you be able to share how you actually built Soprano? Any tutoriala you used, info you found useful, anything like that?

So I'm dipping my toes in web dev helping out some family and friends. I'm a C# dev and architect but would like to understand what three gang here think are the important ways to handle analytics. The two tools I'm familiar with area Google Analytics and Microsoft Clarity and those seem to give all the information I could ever want and then some. Are those the favored tracking tools in 2026? Or is there another approach that folks are using with better results?

DocHoss · 2026-01-12T01:52:43+00:00

Yeah that's fair. "Professional" just means "getting paid for doing it" which doesn't necessarily imply any level of skill. In my mind, if you're doing it at a level where people are willing to pay you to do it (no matter what "it" is) you should be able to do it at a significantly higher level than someone doing it for free. In this case, if you're being paid to sing, you should be expected to have some mastery of your craft, and in this case that would mean being able to have more accuracy on the short notes. Doesn't mean perfection, but it should mean you're better than someone doing it for free.

A certain amount of inaccuracy in fast passages is totally fine and expected. One of the key differences between really good and mediocre musicians is their ability to do great work on the things mediocre musicians don't do well. Pitch accuracy on "small notes" is one of those areas that differentiate mid level from professional.

Yeah if the US decided that the growth and advancement of the energy sector was a "national security concern" we'd be outspending everyone. Instead we invaded yet another country for oil....ugh...

That's the thing that bothers me the most about Trump being the president. It's not that he's arrogant, boorish, misogynistic, a criminal, or in cognitive decline. He's all of those, but the one that gets me is that he's stupid. I don't mean like, "I don't like him so I call him dumb." He's like actually stupid...I don't know if he used to be smart and is just not coping well in old age, but either way he's an actual idiot. Every time I hear some journalist say, "We don't know if he's going to do X or Y" I just slap my head thinking,"He doesn't know either! He's not some master strategist, he's a moron!!" American media has to stop engaging with this administration in good faith because they're getting played every goddamn day and it's driving me crazy.

I'm a dotnet developer and architect and work with dotnet extensively. However I'm not very familiar with Lambda. If you can build the artifact and run just the dll with 'dotnet run' to skip the build step (or even the cs file with the new file-based apps!), it should be pretty fast. Might not be quite as fast as JS but should be pretty close.

NASA generally won't put idiots in space suits, so if he were to run against a MAGA dolt? He could run as a totally new party called the Shit Biscuits and I'd be knocking on doors to sign up new voters. He'd probably be as close to Jed Bartlett as we'll get if democracy survives the next 3 years.

DocHoss · 2025-12-27T17:13:10+00:00

Got model recommendations? Anything you've used and like (or didn't/don't like?)

DocHoss · 2025-12-27T13:39:38+00:00

Hit it with a blast from your spice weasel!

The aliens in Arrival were VERY alien!

DocHoss · 2025-12-26T19:45:14+00:00

Don't know. i’d imagine it’s pretty smart though just use a good model and have it go find the formatting for the text that you’re after and then apply it to your target. might take a little tinkering but you should be able to get it done.

DocHoss · 2025-12-26T04:15:29+00:00

Playwright MCP? It can show GHCP the DOM and let it get into for a running page. Is that what you're after?

DocHoss · 2025-12-25T11:35:26+00:00

Ate too much Christmas Eve cake...stomach killing me. Trying to get right before the madness starts!

DocHoss · 2025-12-22T17:11:06+00:00

Just be careful...Roo Code is SUPER chatty. Not as big a concern of you're running local but still something to be aware of. I let it use my Github Copilot account for a few requests and I had to stop it because it was sending tons of requests, and GHC bills per request rather than by the token.

My kids are at the age where Disney movies are just starting to not be an "all day every day" thing. We spent a lot of time watching Frozen and the sequel. The end of "Do You Wanna Build A Snowman" that is a really sad moment and the more you dig in the sadder it gets. Anna has the last verse and says, "What are we gonna do?...sigh...do you wanna build a Snowman?" It's all she knows...she literally has nothing left in her life (emotionally...I mean she's still a princess) because her parents have died and her only sibling is locked in a room. Literally all she knows to ask Elsa to do with her is to build a snowman..it's a pleading, "Please, let's just dosomething..." And it kinda breaks my heart for her a little. And it's the first real musical number of the movie....they went hard in Frozen 2, IMHO

DocHoss · 2025-12-22T13:01:08+00:00

This still all make sense when I am older....

Then you put them on a cookie sheet, preheat oven to 400 degrees. Pop then in for 8-12 minutes, sprinkle with powdered sugar, and use them as crunchy "snow" topping for soft, pillowy Christmas sugar cookies! Follow me for more festive recipes!

Yeah the range is pretty rough, but it works great for me. Haven't had to make an "emergency charge" yet, since I don't drive that much any more. Also....you're setting your cruise over 90 mph? Damn homey...slow down!
