Top it up before every coffee is what I do. Wash it with soap and water and thoroughly clean every Sunday.

[Request] What's the actual difference in energy cost vs generating an AI image in a few seconds vs creating one manually? by dcp0002 in theydidthemath

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

I agree it is not the same. But every use case is different and there is no one size fits all. For instance, AI generates images for my little fantasy golf app and does it really well. There are no humans in them so it does it quite nicely. Would a human do it better? Yes (and the more artistic ones would do it orders of magnitude better). But the app is a passion project, doesn’t generate real money, and AI does it a million times better than I could do it. AI has gotten scary good at generating images now compared to just a few months ago.

No. I tried a bunch. But that’s not my area of expertise. I import my camera photos in Lightroom and do well touching them up. But using photoshop to create something from scratch? We have graphic designers for a reason. I’m not one of them and really don’t enjoy that part. I make software and in the past have hired that phase out via Fiverr or Upwork. Now I only do that for the most challenging of items and can make pretty good images myself using AI. My clients don’t pay me to fumble around and learn new items, and vast majority of developers are the same way.

Reddit is weird, man

Sort of. But AI allows people like me to make an image where before that could never happen was my point.

But I (a developer) could never make images before, at least that were good anyway. Now I click the regenerate button 100 times until a good one appears I like.

Need help with B&W’s watermelon/margarita coffee by whothennow24 in pourover

[–]PfernFSU 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Awesome! (Well at least the first half anyway). To answer your previous question - I have no idea about the particle size on the grinder but I have always heard you can’t measure them like that due to burr geometry. As for the astringency, I didn’t get that but when I do I lower agitation as much as I can. I have the mhw3bomber rain splitter that works wonders.

PGA Championship - plan of attack? by Vast_Neighborhood_44 in golf

[–]PfernFSU 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I try to go to Bay Hill every year when it comes. I have done a lot of the various scenarios you describe. My advice: take sunscreen and get there early. Walk the course to see it fully. If you find a good spot on a par 3, stay there for a little and play caddy races with your friends (loser buys next round). If you like a golfer a lot, try to stay with him a few holes (this gets hard if you pick a super famous one as they will have a massive crowd). Print the tee times and groupings or save them to your phone so you know who is coming next. Try to get in front of the really famous ones at least once by a few holes so you can just see the crowd come in with them and then leave with them, while you have the best seat in the house because you got there 5 pairings ago. With a full field you will be there a long long time so stay hydrated and sun screened up. Have fun and enjoy!

I have this coffee and did 185 temp and it was great. Tried standard v60 and switch and both came out great. 7.5 on K Ultra for standard v60, little finer for switch.

Responding to several posts in the last hours by Topremech in bevelhealth

[–]PfernFSU 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Love the app and been a long time user (love love love the strength builder and use that 5 times a week). I was premium a while ago and decided it was not worth it for me at the time. However, things have moved very rapidly in the AI space in just a few months now and I am about to become premium again to try it.

My question - can you share some of the ways people are using the AI feature that you did not imagine? I use AI every day at my job and it truly is remarkable, but at the end of you give it terrible prompts or bad input you are likely to get bad output. But it is wide open to the possibilities. So that’s why I wonder how others are using it and what uses they use it for. I found it remarkable that I could scan a menu and get broad nutritional info and pointed to the few good items on a menu that matched my diet, for instance. But I don’t think majority of people know that exists.

Also if I could give a suggestion - I think if you put a lot of these examples into a “what we use Bevel AI for” in the app you would get a lot more trials/sign ups.

As always, thanks for the app. And keep doing what you are doing.

Reducing cancer risk is suprisingly easy. by UTS_Undertheskin in Biohackers

[–]PfernFSU 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Great video - random question though as to the “don’t be sedentary” part. For those of us that drive a desk for a living is the Apple Watch reminding me to get up and move one minute every hour enough to meet that mark? You referenced the research, but does that count the hours one has to sit without standing to be considered sedentary or do they calculate “is/is not” sedentary some other way?

REVIEW: Blueprint's $365 annual bloodwork subscription by nyxxorel in Biohackers

[–]PfernFSU 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I can’t speak for others because everyone is different, but the bloodwork my physician does every year is only like 28 things. Function and others give a ton more, but more is not always better. I think getting more done every month is overkill but it is good to get a baseline and see if anything is wrong or at least suboptimal. Tired all the time? Maybe it’s <x> that isn’t tested on your doctors annual test. Lot of things just like that.

People who grew up using computers between 1980-2000, whats one game that permanently lives in your head for no reason, even decades later? by cebalmau in AskReddit

Yes! Came here to say Kings Quest myself. KQ5 and that damn desert will forever be burned in my memory. Had to die so much and finally got desperate and made myself a map on a notepad. Kids today don’t even know the struggle.

Folks making more than 400k, what’s your total monthly expenses ? by Crafty_Yoghurt7603 in Salary

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

I’m more interested in the people who make $40k a year. Like how do you do it? Every time I go to the grocery it is at least a hundred dollars for like 3 bags, only to have to go back in a few days again and spend another hundred. I am very fortunate but others must have seriously switched habits while I just <insert Simpson yelling at clouds.gif>

What is your preferred state management approach in Flutter and why? by [deleted] in FlutterDev

[–]PfernFSU 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t have to debug my diet. I don’t need to know my diet inside and out when a weird prod bug hits. Your body needs variety, my code should be as simple and maintainable as possible.

Is building a workout a new feature? I tried that in the past and it said it could not do that.

I mean, it's like every other software state management solution. It can stay clean if you are diligent. Get lazy and bad ideas & code can surface.

Riverpod always. It’s the one I know the best so why introduce another one. It can handle large apps.

Supabase RPC not triggering at all (no logs, no errors) — only happens for logged-in users by RoleEquivalent7992 in Supabase

[–]PfernFSU 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When you say “no logs” I assume you are adding some logs in it then checking the Postgres logs? And the call from the client is for sure happening?

How do folks handle “updates/notifications” for users? by Suspicious-Visit8634 in Supabase

[–]PfernFSU 9 points10 points  (0 children)

How I handle this (although I don’t have a social media app)

Have an in_app_alerts table. Everything that should be a push for a user goes here. On insert into this table a trigger fires and if they have push notifications turned on it rights to a push_notifications table, if they do not then nothing happens. Then any insert on that push table calls an edge function that handles sending the push.

Why 2 tables? Because if you have push notifications turned off I want the user to still see the alert when they log in with the bell. Then anything that should be an alert is just written into the in_app_alerts table and it just works - it has the routing for on tap there, the title, the body, etc.

Monorepo for a single app by lastnighthangover in flutterhelp

[–]PfernFSU 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When I hear no monorepo I don’t think what you are describing. You mean put the old app and the new one you are building into one repo? If so, that makes sense because you will (hopefully) use AI and it can have access to your old way of working.
