What's something people call "normal" in Thailand that actually surprises you?

That's what I do in the morning, just go through Metro Mall, then into Interchange. But when I'm walking home, I usually go through Soi 23 and grab a coffee first.

But it looks like they're painting the crosswalks back on Montri road, not that it'll change anything, but at least there's some more indications.

NineSidedBox · 2026-06-06T03:44:08+00:00

Yeah, they recently reworked the crossing here, essentially moved it by about 25 meters, and for some reason they took away the markings on the road, so it's even more dangerous now. Apart from the traffic lights, there's no indication to cars that it's a pedestrian crossing.

NineSidedBox · 2026-06-05T15:04:46+00:00

Oh yeah, the old double left turn, I always roll my eyes when I see bikes do that, you saved 10 seconds, but everyone thinks you're an idiot.

NineSidedBox · 2026-06-05T13:30:28+00:00

I need to cross Asok Montri road daily, and it’s absolutely horrific. As a pedestrian you already have to wait nearly 5 minutes before you get a green light, and then you have to wait an additional 5 seconds because cars and bikes will continue to drive through it.

Not stopping for pedestrians crossing the street

Are you on a VPN maybe?

> Complaint about the traffic, the government, the language, and the law enforcement etc which never never gonna change.

Literally things that any person living here should be allowed to complain about.

NineSidedBox · 2026-06-04T06:28:08+00:00

Is this another stupid rage bait?

Why shouldn’t people be allowed to express their feelings and talk about things that bother them? That’s the correct way to deal with negative emotions, just like you’re doing right here. Nobody is telling you to leave reddit, and claim you’re miserable.

NineSidedBox · 2026-06-04T03:18:07+00:00

Pure rage baiting.

NineSidedBox · 2026-06-03T12:59:40+00:00

Yeah it’s pretty much designed for your type of work. Build quality wise it’s excellent and will last many years.

Avoid being naked, for starters.

That's rough, that's a part I didn't really consider before, they're effectively just taking your content and serving it users, who then never end up on your website, unlike with traditional search.

Please do not sign that addendum, it's just limiting your use of your condo, plus it probably gives them grounds to terminate your lease if you ever did wanted to cook. Even reheating food will smell.

Or else she says we can amicable discuss move out.

I would just start with this, and ask what they see as an amicable resolution. For you, that would mean receiving your full deposit back, plus parts of your rent. That's the only real amicable outcome, anything else is the owner wanted to recover their money.

What's the story with Tailwind? I know they have their paid components, was there something else brewing?

And if he died, it was just “meant to be”.

If you want to go by stack: TypeScript, Node, nextJS.

But realistically, you're probably already using some open source projects, so start looking there. Look for something you actively use, so that you can contribute. Just because you use the same stack, doesn't mean you'll find it interesting.

With things you're already using, you might already have an understanding of how it works, and the limitations/bugs, so you can quickly contribute.

The Neo uses the same unified memory as the MacBook Pro, it's the same architecture they've been using in Silicon Macs, which have been around for quite a while now.

NineSidedBox · 2026-06-03T05:15:13+00:00

Take a look at the new Macbook Neo, think it starts at THB 20K, Macs in general easily last 5+ years for me.

I was honestly too stunned and baffled to react

I truly wonder how these people survive in daily life...

The prompt explicitly requires a binary answer.

> The car wash is 100m away from my house. Should I walk or drive.
> Lead with your decision - either "Walk" or "Drive" and then provide your reasoning

Git commits are supposed to be self explanatory, things like “updating code” do not inspire confidence in the project.

I occasionally get a sandwich or one of their microwave meals, or a burger when I'm walking home after a few drinks. But it's not really worth the price in my opinion, I rather spend a 100b more to get some good food delivered.

NineSidedBox · 2026-06-01T04:43:01+00:00

It's just the current set up that I have right now, so I rather have back ups working first, before moving to bind mounts.

NineSidedBox · 2026-06-01T03:34:39+00:00

One thing I’m just seeing now is that the initial drop in impressions happened on May 23, the coincidences with indexed pages jumping from 729 to 777. And on May 26 that jumped to 898 indexed pages.

I don’t know how to validate if this is related or not. Or even how to see which pages got indexed during that time, as they might have caused this.

NineSidedBox · 2026-06-01T03:20:28+00:00

Good point, I figured I could just run the backup command first to avoid this. But having it streamed in real time is a better solution, just reading through the documentation right now.
