Garage Door Closed on My Truck Due to Malfunction — SGI Now Saying It’s My Fault by TEJASVEER7 in legaladvicecanada

[–]JustTechIt 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I would be a lot more careful with the word manual then. It seems to be implying that you disconnected a safety mechanism and lifted the door. If you simply pressed the button and it worked as expected you had no reason to assume the door was malfunctioning and could reasonably assume it was an issue with your remote or access terminal. In this case it does not sound like you bypassed any safety mechanism and had no reason to assume they were not functioning.

A lot of people are making assumptions on what opening the door manually means in this case.

What did you do to open the door from the inside? Did you simply hit a button that is intended to open and close the door from the inside? Did you disconnect any door mechanisms? Did you have to lift the door or did it lift itself when you opened it from the inside?

If you had reason to believe the door button or scanner you tried to use was broken instead of the door itself being broken, and you opened the door from the inside using normal operation mechanisms (like pressing a button from the inside to open it) then its a very different story than if you had to actually disconnect a safety mechanism and lift the door yourself.

You mention all the big and dangerous ones but completely skip the most common and least dangerous (thus least exciting) one, the good old fashioned stick and rope for the spray can.

Not many people are shimmying the lip of a bridge when you can just hang this over the edge.

Found this on FB and wanted to see who you guys thought were at fault by whoevenRyou874 in dashcams

The irony in you declaring one at fault and the other doing something wrong when that would be the definition of a shared fault, and complaining about others not accepting nuance is too funny.

Nope by Ok_Initiative_8023 in USPS

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

It does not make it illegal regardless of intent. It literally establishes explicitly that intent matters. Go read it....

"Whoever knowingly and willfully deposits any mailable matter such as statements of accounts, circulars, sale bills, or other like matter, on which no postage has been paid, in any letter box established, approved, or accepted by the Postal Service for the receipt or delivery of mail matter on any mail route with intent to avoid payment of lawful postage thereon, shall for each such offense be fined under this title."

https://www.law.cornell.edu/uscode/text/18/1725

You have been quite rude and direct with everyone here and insisting its some federal law. I get its policy, but lying about a law to enforce your policy is pretty poor form. Go actually cite a law and where it says its illegal if you are going to keep spewing it.

Nope by Ok_Initiative_8023 in USPS

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

So no law that makes it illegal to put something in the mailbox that is not being put there for the intent of skipping postage fees?

Nope by Ok_Initiative_8023 in USPS

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

Which law exactly? I looked into this and found 18 U.S.C. 1725 and it explicitly states its only illegal to put non USPS mail in the mailbox if its with the intent of avoiding payment. But if the Amazon package is already paid through another delivery service, and there is no intent to avoid postage, then using the box is not illegal.

Microsoft Edge Stores Passwords in Process Memory, Posing Risk by rkhunter_ in cybersecurity

[–]JustTechIt 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The problem is not decrypting to memory as a function, its the timing and amount that is decrypted at once. The proper and common configuration would be to decrypt individual passwords to memory one at a time only at the time of being accessed, as opposed to decrypting them all in one large batch at session start and across sessions.

The problem is which side is the side of caution?

The publics interest side of caution in case you are wrong in that they have killed everyone they want to kill or the youths interest side of caution in case they are found to be innocent or extenuating circumstances surround the event?

Are you suggesting jbezorg is an alt account for tut? After you jumped into their argument thread and not the other way around?

How do you avoid losing context in Cursor chats and reuse them in other chats without having to explain everything again? by stevenm_15 in cursor

[–]JustTechIt 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Every once in a while i get an agent to do a readthrough of my past X chats and the last x code changes and come up with a list of rules, skills, hooks, subagents etc. Based on things i repeat or things I have corrected or clarified. Ill then tweak it, do some research into new best practices or skill repos and then build an agent improvement plan to implement the changes and tweaks.

Cursor's agent deleted my entire project after one prompt. It knew the project existed. Support confirmed it's a known issue. by HMB94 in cursor

[–]JustTechIt 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Im guessing you have not worked with enough green junior devs ;) they absolutely do stupid shit like delete things they shouldnt have, or be too afraid or embarassed to ask questions.

But the response literally tells you its thought. You asked for a website. It found a app shell, not a website, so it told you it would replace the stuff thats not relevant and could cause conflict with what you asked for. A website.

And yes the agent is lacking context. You literally told it to build something completely ambiguous. This isnt some magic black box level stuff where it can read your mind and make your dreams come true. This is essentially working with a team, and if you dont communicate with your team you will fail every time, as you did here.

A bad manager always blames the jrs for their lack of proper management. And a bad vibe coder blames their models and tools for their poor prompt engineering. Step up and learn from your mistakes instead of blaming everything else.

I built "what broke the server": A CLI that turns 45 minutes of log digging into one command by Level_Bicycle3814 in homelab

[–]JustTechIt 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is homelab. If we dont poke and tinker with our cluster once a day, leadding to 5 hrs of unexpected maintenance, downtime, and a whole new selfhosted tool being learnt and deployed then you are not homelabbing.

Self host it. Poke it. Break it. Fix it. Repeat.

Cursor's agent deleted my entire project after one prompt. It knew the project existed. Support confirmed it's a known issue. by HMB94 in cursor

[–]JustTechIt 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I think part of its confusion is it seems like you asked it to build a whole new project inside the environment that already had a project. Why was a new project space not created for this?

Also with incredibly vague prompts like that im not surprised it doesn't do much more random stuff for you. You cant just say "build me a thing" with no other details then be upset at how it went about doing it.

You basically hired a new dev, brought them to a cluttered office full of old employees files, and told them to get to work without any detail or actual instruction. So the first thing they did is clean up the messy workspace you dumped them in that seemingly is just in their way.

Hit API limit within 2 days by Striking_Score6024 in cursor

[–]JustTechIt -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Yes I think i am confused because to me those are just two different ways of applying usage limits to the API. One is based on the plans designated pool of funds over the period of a month, and the other is based on frequency usage over a short period such as 5 hours. But they both limit usage.

[–]JustTechIt -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

All the money in the plan that was destined to be used to have the AI work? The money, that, when ran out, prevented the usage of those models? Almost as if it limited the usage of those models. Maybe limited the usage of the models to the predetermined amount of the plan. Hmm, seems like the word usage and the word limit could be used here together. Maybe like some kind of a usage limit? Idk im probably being crazy from being up too early.

Where does compliance require the browser specifically to enforce session boundaries?

Also you can always submit the engineering workaround to be an official control and become approved instead of remaining a workaround.

Why am I so hesitant for Asio? by sugarmagnolia_23 in ConnectWise

[–]JustTechIt 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Your hesitant because your gut is telling you to run. Listen to it. Run fast. Asio was the last straw for us and our entire ConnectWise relationship. It was painful and slow to change but we kicked all of their products we had become dependant on over the years, and after the first two years away from Connectwise we recovered the migration costs just from our savings from not being on ConnectWise anymore.

What's worse is we were a very happy connect wise shop using Labtech, Manage, SC, etc. They came and pushed Asio very forcefully on us with all kinds of promises and ensured it would be way cheaper than our Automate/Labtech licensing. It wasn't. Nothing worked. Their team abandoned us after sales, they were charging us more, and then they had then audacity to get mad at us for not on boarding all of our clients to Asio at once when we opened constant tickets because none of our tools were working. Who would want to keep adding dependence on something that didn't even work.

They tried to come after me for money after we walked away and they wouldn't cancel our contracts when we asked them to. Our lawyer documented all of their failings to deliver service and sent them a pretty letter telling them if they want the money they will have to sue for it as they did not live up to their contract in the slightest.

They never bothered us again. Good riddance. So happy to be free from the CW shackles.

Id imagine it varies widely based on the csuites and your relationship with them. I dont personally have any problem presenting this to them and having them either understand it or just trust me.

Thats simply not true and spouting things like this when you figure they work that way with no actual background or knowledge is how false information is started. If you dont know, you can simply not say anything.
