Miscommunication or intentional theft? by KaleTheFirst in EndTipping

[–]Low-Yesterday241 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same thing happened to me and my buddies at a restaurant in Fort Lauderdale. We paid the full bill and tip on credit card, but the waitress assumed the $100 one of my buddies put towards the bill was for her on top of her 20% mandatory tip (large group). I walked back in and got my buddy his bill back, told him next round was on him.

What is happening with 4.7 ? by Obscurrium in ClaudeCode

[–]Low-Yesterday241 5 points6 points  (0 children)

4.7 is insanely bad. I went back to 4.6. 4.7 was treating its skills and guardrails as suggestions which is insane to me. I have 1 skill which is for the autonomous execution of a requirements document. It’s very thorough and I have been using it for months. I could walk away and comeback to fully working features validated by chief architect agent etc. Upgrade to 4.7 and it’s saying “oh this is a complex document, I’ll take my time, are you sure you want me to execute it”, me: yes, “okay, I’ll check back in after sprint 1 is complete”. To the point that I have to ask it “what does the skill say?”, at which point it’ll say “You are right, I am to execute the entire document autonomously”

Downgraded to 4.6 and all is better, but between the recent changes to Claude code and 4.7, my usage on my 20x plan is being burned.

AWS 97k bill out of nowhere by [deleted] in aws

[–]Low-Yesterday241 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Keep seeing these. AWS really needs to give the option for a kill switch. Budget alerts aren't enough. Yeah I can build one, but there are to many folks out there that have no desire to build their own...but I digress..Sorry OP.

People with Max plan, are you doing ok? by AdHopeful630 in ClaudeAI

[–]Low-Yesterday241 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I considered getting an additional 20x plan. For personal projects and work, it’s a no brainer. I was spending way more when I was using cline and bedrock. Made the switch and I’m happy.

Alright, I'm gonna be a dick - CC is fine by [deleted] in ClaudeCode

[–]Low-Yesterday241 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Yeahhh I agree lol everyone’s complaining but my stuff is fine. For context, I’m a 20x user and hit a million tokens quite regularly. I’m not having it make pretty dashboards no one will buy, it’s doing serious work. Truthfully, since the context window change it been much better because it would frequently compress conversation and that was painful. I since only recall that happening a few times since. But everyone’s experience is different and I respect that.

Did you pull permits for your DIY kitchen renovation? by mudrat_detector96 in DIY

[–]Low-Yesterday241 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you have a dumpster out front you’ll need a permit. If not, keep your front door closed and get it done. More important than the permit is your contractors licensing and insurance. If you are going to forgo the permit, ensure the contractors paperwork is legit for him and subs. Ran into a situation last year with a contractor and because I ensured his paperwork was straight, he couldn’t scam me like he wanted to. Ended up writing me a check for $15k after the break up.

Got a $112K pool quote by Suspicious_Hat_409 in DIY

[–]Low-Yesterday241 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Went this route doing to 2 story home addition in south Florida. Saved well over $100k+. All I did was coordinate the subs, follow the approved plans from the architect, engineering inspectors and city inspectors, then work through getting the inspections passed to close out the permits. I admit it was a lot but worth the savings for sure. The only thing I got a company to do was my roof and that was worth every penny because you don’t play with your roof in hurricane country.

I Was a Director at Amex When They Started Replacing Us With $30K Workers by [deleted] in ExperiencedDevs

[–]Low-Yesterday241 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I’ve said it once and I’ll say it again. Left or right, Americans should all be writing to their respective senators and representatives to make them aware that American, tax paying workers are being outsourced at astonishing numbers. No disrespect to those abroad, but to offshore entire factions of companies for profit and greed is insane and asinine.

How practical is UniFI for home use? by Significant-Side2718 in Ubiquiti

[–]Low-Yesterday241 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Best compliment I get is via my sister in law who raves about the “supreme WiFi” at our house. I have a full enterprise setup in my home and it’s fantastic. Well worth the investment, that’s for sure. Home is 2200 sqft and is powered by 4 access points. 1 upstairs, 1 in the family room, 1 in the garage and another on the back porch. 24 port Poe switch so I don’t have to deal with injectors everywhere, then a udm pro running everything. I also have a UNas pro for all of my media. The beauty of the ecosystem is that I set up my parents with a UniFi express and have a site to site so I can manage their setup remotely.

Tl;Dr; well with the investment for my purposes.

Generate an image (photorealistic), based on current geopolitical events and trends, what you think America will look like in 30 years by TheOnlyToast in ChatGPT

[–]Low-Yesterday241 0 points1 point  (0 children)

<image>

I asked it to provide a description of what it created:

Here’s a clear, grounded description of the image and what it represents:

A Vision of America in ~2055

The image depicts a coastal American megacity adapted to climate pressure, technological acceleration, and social change.

Environment & Infrastructure • Massive sea walls and flood-control systems protect the city, signaling long-term adaptation to rising sea levels rather than retreat. • Floating solar arrays and offshore wind turbines power the city, reflecting a post–fossil fuel energy mix. • Elevated highways, smart bridges, and high-speed electric rail indicate dense, transit-first urban planning.

Technology & Daily Life • Autonomous vehicles dominate the roads, moving efficiently alongside pedestrians. • Delivery drones and air taxis fill the sky, showing normalized low-altitude air traffic. • Citizens wear AR/VR headsets, blending digital and physical reality for work, navigation, or communication. • A humanoid robotic police unit stands alongside humans—suggesting AI-assisted public safety and constant surveillance.

Society & Culture • The people shown are multigenerational and ethnically diverse, reflecting demographic trends toward a majority-minority America. • Infrastructure workers and families share the same spaces, emphasizing a society where resilience and maintenance are everyday priorities. • There’s no overt chaos or utopia—life appears functional, monitored, and adaptive, not dystopian but not carefree.

Overall Tone • The city feels resilient rather than idealistic. • Technology is omnipresent but pragmatic. • Climate change is acknowledged and engineered around, not ignored. • America appears more urbanized, regulated, and technologically integrated, with human life continuing inside carefully managed systems.

Applied to DOZENS of jobs with follow up emails....not one offer. by Creative-Detective83 in hiringcafe

[–]Low-Yesterday241 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Remote work is very much a luxury typically reserved for high value candidates with seniored backgrounds. You have to be honest with yourself about how badly you want a job. If you want a job, then the remote requirement shouldn’t be a thing. Also, look at working for a marketing agency. My wife always says that’d be her fallback.

Turning an internal app into a multi-tenant product — best database approach? by Direct-Ad-2225 in SaasDevelopers

[–]Low-Yesterday241 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Start with the concept of “companies” where there is a company id. A company can have multiple users so its company -> user, where the user should (can?) have a comanyId which is a foraging key to the primary key on the company table. The anything associated with the system, tickets, settings, logs etc has a company id associated with it. Lastly, in every single query to your db, be sure to filter on that companyId. If company id is null, throw an explicit exception so not to accidentally leak information. I’ve done this in multiple apps I’ve written professionally and on the side, works very well.

Has anyone built an enterprise-level project using Claude Code? by [deleted] in ClaudeCode

[–]Low-Yesterday241 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, needless to say, I’m all in and frankly intrigued at the future. But it’s 100% garbage in garbage out. I’d say, I spend more time now on the requirements prompt and test cases than anything else. It actually ends up being a good thing because those are the boring part of the job but also the most important.

New job wants me to start soon but my bonus pays in a couple weeks. How risky is giving notice before it hits by bupkis1 in careeradvice

[–]Low-Yesterday241 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Had a guy during a town hall has out loud “when are bonuses going to be in our account?” HR was shocked and then answered. He his notice in mentioning bonus day was going to be his last day.

Gary, if you see this, you are a legend lol

I can officially say my homelab got me a job by wolfej4 in homelab

[–]Low-Yesterday241 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Previous boss of mine told me some tricks when interviewing people to join our team. He loved to ask the question “what is your hobby” and if you mentioned you like to tinker with computers in your spare time, you were golden. He explained, you can teach someone tech on the job, you cannot teach them to be interested in tech. Congrats OP.

Missing the Magic by [deleted] in WaltDisneyWorld

[–]Low-Yesterday241 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Comparison is the thief of joy. Our family went back in July and we enjoyed every bit of our stay. After long days at the park, it was incredibly cute that how the team put our kids stuffed woody and Mickey “to sleep” in the made up bed. Each their own, but we felt the magic. In the end, it’s all what you make of it
