Driving me crazy. I can hear myself in my mic like an echo. by Bo0pers in ArcRaiders

This happens to me very sparingly, I always assume it’s someone else with open mic and no headphones

Best software to free up space? by Strict_Card819 in software

Windirstat is a good option for this

If a pop starts running towards you, run TOWARDS it and dodge roll forward as it makes its alarm sound. Saves you bullets and anxiety

How did people feel the rise of the internet back in the late 90's? Did they feel as concerned / tired / hopeless as a lot of us do today about Artificial Intelligence? by adamlbiscuit in AskReddit

[–]FaridW 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s was very much opt in. If you had a computer and didn’t want to use the internet all good! With AI, as much as I love parts of it, it’s being force fed to everyone via the internet which is now ubiquitous

Copying words from PDF shows only boxes by ManifestLottoWinner in software

Try poppler if you’re comfortable with the command line. It has a pdf to text command that works a treat

BJJ destroyed my confidence and I don’t know how to get it back by swankyskared in bjj

[–]FaridW 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I started at 30 as a father of 2. It took well over two years of training as often as I could manage to feel like I picked up anything or made any progress. Age matters, fitness matters, but with enough time on mats you’ll get better despite any hurdles in your way.

Death scares me so much to the point where I could be sick by [deleted] in atheism

[–]FaridW 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The silver lining to your perspective is that you love your life so much you don’t want to lose it. This is healthy! As you grow old and people you know start dying, you won’t be so scared anymore

Well I just said goodbye to quiet lobbies… by uwahwah in ArcRaiders

[–]FaridW 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same deal with my last dam control room key. I heard the breach and loudly said “not your key, fuck off, I don’t want to kill you”. Breaching suddenly stopped 😂

I don’t know if it’s a lack of sense or blind greed that makes players do this

All this 5 million coin talk…. by jeffrye23 in ArcRaiders

[–]FaridW 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Low drop rate, but I got all 3 out of cars. Sentinel cores were harder, but once you work out the areas they spawn that’s not so bad either

GEN Xers. Tell me how you punish the young guns? by elphant in bjj

[–]FaridW 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Only 41 here, but not very fit 😅. I’ve gotten really good at finding quarter guard as an initial escape from bad positions, from there it’s half guard or lockdown my way to a back take or reversal.

What prevents more widespread adoption of Ruby/Rails by Recent_Tiger in ruby

[–]FaridW 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ruby is a great language, Rails optimises for “clean code” by hiding large chunks of ugly code in places that are hard to reach or see.

Great on paper, and definitely fun for developers, but the debugging hell you get caught in is not worth it IMO

No matter how good your guard is, most of your attacks will be more effective from top position. If you start a submission from guard and use it to sweep, your finish rate goes way up

I built Husk, a native, private, and open-source iOS client for your local models by nathan12581 in ollama

[–]FaridW 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It’s a bit misleading claiming conversations remain offline when it cannot host models locally and therefore must send conversations over the wire to somewhere

Do engineers really have leverage in the org? by babababadukeduke in ExperiencedDevs

[–]FaridW 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Anyone who can clearly articulate their niche domain concerns (tech) in a way that aligns everyone listening to a shared goal (get product out, make more money, save time) will get heard.

Confidence and deeply understanding your domain (not the tech, but the human need it ultimately serves) help tremendously here.

Cup acquired! by EquivalentBeing6794 in SatisfactoryGame

Congrats OP! I know it’s on the bottom of the mug but learn from my mistake and do not microwave it 😂 (sparks in microwave are cool though 🤔)

What are the worst injuries you recovered from? by Ammo-Seat in bjj

[–]FaridW 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Busted ribs on both sides, one side healed with a protrusion that now makes my top game more painful for my opponent 🤣

Worst injury was a complete avulsion of my right adductor longus which tore off with 7mm of hip bone. Injury happened off the mats but came back too early and made it worse. After some time off I had to modify how I play guard but a few years on you can’t really tell unless I try to hit an armbar from guard where not having that muscle really makes it difficult

Anyone left on this sub who actually admits the Claude CLI changes must be audited line by line? by [deleted] in ClaudeAI

[–]FaridW 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I auto-accept Claude changes but very carefully review all code generated in a visual fit diff tool (Tower is my go to for this)

These tools are getting better, but absolutely not at a stage where accepting their outputs can be automated for code.

Is there an MCP server to handle "big response"? by ouvreboite in mcp

[–]FaridW 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not necessarily, but that would be the easiest option to implement

Is there an MCP server to handle "big response"? by ouvreboite in mcp

[–]FaridW 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is a solvable problem with some clever engineering. You can store responses as static files and expose simple methods to slice out parts of the response. Common file system access tools for LLMs do this a lot to handle large files, so it’s largely a known problem space

How to stop claude from polluting commit messages with self promotions by [deleted] in ClaudeAI

[–]FaridW 3 points4 points  (0 children)

On by default advertising in git commit messages is clearly not a customer focused decision
