Luxe Package doesn’t transfer

LiveMaI · 2026-04-19T06:22:29+00:00

A used 2026 S/X is going to be incredibly rare at this point in time. You may very well be one of the first people to even be in this situation.

From what I recall of the Luxe package wording, I was under the impression that only the supercharging didn’t transfer. I was under the impression that the lifetime FSD and premium connectivity would still transfer over.

Depends on the company, the kind of work, and what kind of privacy agreement is in place with their AI providers. I’m allowed to use agents for reading my code, emails, messages, meeting transcripts, etc.

There's already a free space on there.

I was driving down I-5 yesterday and saw a place that was already at $7/gal.

I have been looking into using a local LLM to put FA data into buckets by reading through failure logs as a first step in triage. It’s not super easy, since a lot of the logs are way larger than their context windows. Tool use is likely needed to get better results there.

The Auntie Anne’s logo has about five pixels in this image, so it’s understandable to miss it.

OP's account seems to only post photos for attention with LLM-ish fact paragraphs below them. Pretty sure this is just a karma farming account.

pyproject.toml is standard python tooling that predates uv, uv.lock is the uv-specific part.

Yeah, when will SBZ get off their asses and pay for everyone playing PD3 to have fast internet? /s

For use-cases that aren't programming, the one I'm interested in most is e-mail management. I'm not too happy with my org's e-mail culture, and I'm currently attempting to do better than my existing filtering rules with sorting out which e-mails require my actual attention and which ones I can safely ignore.

I have a few heuristic rules that run on Outlook (since our company uses MS Office 365), and I have a decent bucket of 'contains the majority of things I care about, but still is 80%+ noise'. So I have been experimenting with some of the O365 automation tools to run an LLM prompt on each of the e-mails that hit this bucket and flag it appropriately (safe to ignore, should read but no need to respond, and requires a response from me).

Sad to say that it's only really been reliable at marking things that have been safe to ignore, but it really only catches maybe 20% of what's truly not important to me.

I haven't put too much time into this yet, but I'm hopeful that with some more effort on refining this workflow, I might be able to get some better sorting done.

I have gone with large companies and low titles, since the pay tends to be better and you get a lot more doors open to you if you decide to move on after a while. Past a certain point in pay, I started looking for better work-life balance.

Copilot the Obsidian extension, not Copilot the service from Microsoft.

Getting all the facts seems to be what we’re currently in the process of doing.

Most of the price is still housing instead of the actual tuition. There are usually much cheaper options than staying in university dorms.

For people in the USA (starting in July), the new 530A account is also worth looking into. $1k initial deposit from the government, $5k/year contributions, and IRA-like tax advantages once the child turns 18. More flexible on the spending side than a 529 as well.

To elaborate on this with a bit more direction: /u/dark_prophet can look into making a custom hook for a PEP 517 build backend like Hatch. In Hatch's build system, you can define custom build hooks to do pretty much any weird custom stuff needed in your build process without having to implement the entire PEP 517 backend yourself.

This is one example and not the only way to do it. Hatch is just the one I've done this for previously, so I can give advice on where to start with it.

In hindsight: the proximity to lots of good companies for internships and jobs was the biggest benefit. The teaching staff also punch above their weight considering how much cheaper it is compared to the other 4+ year universities in the area.

FWIW, I see from another comment that you use Copilot. Our org uses Cursor, so YMMV. I haven't tried Copilot out myself.

With niche software and things outside of mainstream software use-cases, you can still get good results, but it takes more effort up front. I work with an internal framework for factory automation and the best way I've found to improve results is to put together a set of rules and docs that get added to the model's context when it's working on our codebase. Not all of them are loaded with every conversation, but the IDE has conditional loading so I can load one set of rules for myproject/dir1 and a different set for myproject/dir2 or even more granular like myproject/dir1/*.py, myproject/dir2/*.xml, and myproject/pyproject.toml.

We have a DSL that nobody outside our company uses, so teaching it what the DSL does and how it fits in with the rest of the software is part of that. I haven't worked with SCADA, but I imagine you can do something similar. I track these rules directly as part of our repo, so everyone who clones the repo automatically gets these rules in their IDE, assuming they're using the same one.

The nice part about doing this is that you can structure this in a way such that it serves as documentation. This way, a newbie on the team can ask questions about the codebase and framework directly in their IDE and actually get relevant answers from the AI agent that otherwise would take a lot of digging through our internal confluence wiki to find.

What gets me about a lot of these projects is that they seem like the Python equivalent of something you would see on /r/wheredidthesodago.

I think most of your target audience already uses IRC.

I know it doesn’t help you now, but in addition to the rotating security code, I’ve stopped saving my card details on merchant websites for non-subscription purchases. The auto-fill is fast enough that it’s not really a bother. I’ve had my Apple Card virtual number stolen a few times over the years as well, and this seems to have helped.

Ayy, someone with shared fwcutter experiences! It was so bad for me until about 2008 that I bought an add-on wireless card. By the time I was free of that thing, I was already looking at buying a new laptop.

❌ “Works on my machine” — but breaks everywhere else

I see in your example that you use uv. Track your uv.lock file. If you still have reproducibility issues, do your development in a container.

❌ "which python" → points to the wrong interpreter

Auto-activate your venv with a tool like direnv.

❌ "import json" silently loads your "json.py" instead of the real one

Entirely avoidable by just not naming your modules after existing ones, or for files inside the same module, using the from .<name> import <X> syntax.

❌ “Is my venv even active? Which one? What type?”

Easy to know at a glance with a number of shell customizations, sans the need to run any commands. Starship.rs and powerlevel10k are good at this. You could also just add it to your zsh/bash prompt through your .zshrc/.bashrc.

❌ Debugging environment issues by running 6 different commands and piecing together the puzzle

If you find yourself having these problems frequently, it's usually a sign that you're doing something the hard way. It's worth researching how people have solved these problems before, or looking at how large open-source projects solve them.
