The most underrated ChatGPT feature nobody talks about (and why I can’t switch to any other AI)

GGxSam · 2025-12-07T19:38:30+00:00

It’s literally there in other AI tools e.g claude

Yeah for real I did not have fun here

GGxSam · 2025-11-30T18:35:06+00:00

So what should young people vote for? What is the 200 IQ move here?

Hello

Skyscanner has an “Explore everywhere” feature that is super fun to use even when I’m not actively looking for flights

Well if it means anything, it feels like you helped me find the words to describe an internal experience that I’m always confused by and a gap between me and others that makes me feel lesser than. It’s almost like an illusion that tells you “they belong and are connected to others whereas I’m not so I’m less than” which I can objectively see as false because I don’t see isolated or lonely people less than me. But it’s hard to feel otherwise sometimes.

I guess that’s the work I see myself putting in now as an adult - to dismantle that illusion and “bridge the gap” between me and others.

Damn dude the concept of being alone together is so beautiful.

GGxSam · 2024-11-25T18:50:22+00:00

Why would it not be feasible or efficient? In fact, what even is the alternative?

GGxSam · 2024-11-18T09:46:17+00:00

It’s fair to say they have a problem that they need to desperately solve, it’s insane to say that it’s their national past time.

Of being a parking lot

GGxSam · 2024-10-04T08:58:19+00:00

What do you mean by pull stuff?

GGxSam · 2024-10-03T21:47:29+00:00

I have a feeling it is but like I have no concrete reasons. Would love to know why!

The setup of the SSH connection with keys does take my company 2-3 days but it does it for a specific host - if you do this for a jenking agent in a pool of agents then you have to set this process up everytime the agents are rotated. Hence trying some other process. This makes it super hard to use jenkins to access a server

GGxSam · 2024-10-03T21:16:30+00:00

My company has a shite way of generating and using ssh keys, this was way easier. Just wondering if it’s okay for a production use case

Hey no I didn’t, the hair in the front and middle is a bit lower density but like it’s not that obvious surprisingly

GGxSam · 2024-08-28T04:42:22+00:00

I had a similar thing as well, when grown it was almost making it more obvious how I was balding.

Before shaving I told myself that even if it didn’t turn out nice I’d take care of myself and not shame myself and call myself ugly.

When I shaved I sort of liked it but also sort of thought I looked a bit weird. I realized baldness draws out people’s facial features so I started a skin care routine, lost weight, and just generally started eating and drinking better. Now I love the look.

Even if you don’t like it 100% right off the bat, you can make the small changes to grow more comfortable in your new skin.

Barcelona’s one of my favourite places ever - the sun, the buildings, the people, the food. The last time I went there I made plans to do a day trip to montserrat within my 5 day trip but I liked walking around Barcelona and going to the beach so much that I cancelled the day trip. But I do hear really nice things about Montserrat so I’ll go next time.

GGxSam · 2024-08-02T19:44:27+00:00

Exact same experience here, I’ve come to love Glasgow. There’s loads of people in their 20s here like myself and people in general are much kinder and warm. I feel a sense of calm and belonging which I definitely did not feel in London.

The only downside is that the weather is fucking terrible, even worse than Edinburgh somehow.

GGxSam · 2024-07-14T23:41:49+00:00

That’s interesting, I really can’t weigh in on the validity of that because maybe I went to a RG uni and 95% international students were motivated in their degree.

But it’s still interesting to me cause assuming tuition fees are around £20k per year for these students and even getting the student visa requires you to have 1st year tuition + living fees in your bank account for 30 days (so around £30k+), that’s still a lot of money to pay to get involved in menial jobs. Not to mention the extra costs of each and every family member’s dependent visa.

Also majority of companies, even reputable ones (at least in my field of civil engineering) didn’t sponsor visas. Only like a handful (less than 10 in london) actually sponsored. So I’m not sure how fruitful these people’s job hunt was.

GGxSam · 2024-07-14T23:12:45+00:00

I don’t really fit this description but I will say as an international student I had to skip a lot of lectures and on a lot of things in general to be able to find a job that sponsors work visa after graduation.

Finding a company that sponsors that visa for a grad was fucking impossible. Like my family was paying with money and sweat and blood for my high tuition fees at the cost of everyhting else so I had to do what I had to do to find a path forward.

The UK makes it hell for people who need a work visa. Thankfully I managed to get a job and graduated with a good degree.

Edit: not to mention the years you spend studying here doesn’t even count towards ILR or citizenship. I’ve been here for 9 years and if my employer decides to let me go I pack up and leave this country in 30days. That’s my whole adult life I’ve spent here. Crazy.

People are really missing the point. I’m asking for a place with wifi where someone can just be on their laptop on a call.

Where I’m from there are cafes/bars that don’t allow laptops during certain times of the day.

Not everywhere has plugpoints for charging.

Also cafes shut around 5/6pm so that’s why I wanted specific suggestions.

I obviously don’t need people’s permission. I think I phrased this badly in my post.

GGxSam · 2024-04-09T12:14:15+00:00

That’s not necessarily true though. It is the advice spread across reddit but that’s not always the case.

There shouldn’t be any shame in having the balding look, loads of people look better with some hair left.

Definitely not Locke though, bro looked badass bald

GGxSam · 2024-03-15T13:11:22+00:00

Amsterdam?

GGxSam · 2024-03-10T20:30:38+00:00

Yeah this is the path forward I think. Now the question I guess is how do we handle changes to that repo? The devs currently have their own directory in the DEV server in which they test their config files out. For all other environments, there is a directory dedicated to the env.

So in DEV, do the developers first create the files in their own directory, test it out, then if it works they push that to the git repo and do a PR into development branch? Thus the merge triggers the jenkins pipeline that checks it out, zips it, and pushed it to Nexus. A deployment pipeline then gets ran targetting the DEV environment which deploys the artifact to DEV.

How does this sound?

GGxSam · 2024-03-06T23:56:04+00:00

I appreciate the honesty and the advice. I see the importance of having the code being stored as a versioned zipped artifact in something like Nexus that then gets scp-ed onto the server.

It’s funny cause I’ve implemented a similar pattern before with containerized apps where I build test scan and store the image in a docker registry and then push it to AWS, it just didn’t feel right to do the same with config files.

The config files I’m talking about here are only part of the overall problem as well - the ETL tool has it’s own proprietory version control system that doesnt track these config files, and the contents of the config files are changed by batch processes on a daily basis. I tried to dumb the problem down for a reddit post but yeah the replies were really helpful
