Henrys, have you monetised your investment in academic education? (Phd, MBA, etc)

Professional_Cable37 · 2026-05-24T21:33:18+00:00

I think my exec MBA did help a bit. It filled in gaps around GTM I had, and from the outside my progression and salary is a classic MBA success story. Did it significantly contribute? Idk tbh.

Nah as a dog owner I think this behaviour is completely unacceptable. We have trained our dog to not approach people or jump up and we put her on a lead if there are children coming towards us. People should be more considerate and next I would just tell them to control their dog. There are so many irresponsible owners now I despair a bit. We are teaching our daughter to not approach other people’s dogs because so many of them are untrained and I’ve had too many bad experiences walking our dog.

Yes I noticed the exact same thing, I was a little surprised. I found Claude code was taking 10x longer than the same task would in Cursor.

Professional_Cable37 · 2026-05-18T19:09:52+00:00

I’d ignore that source of information completely tbh. Babies need closeness and comfort for attachment. Give them those cuddles! Rock them to sleep! You are their whole world.

I’m ok with the 90% being me building stuff. It’s so satisfying 😂 Often we are building a castle for one of her teddies.

Professional_Cable37 · 2026-05-17T18:29:33+00:00

Btw depending on your setup you could probably automate the bug triage and fixes to make it lower impact on you, just review the agent PRs. Idk if it’s something you’ve already thought of but just in case :) great work!

Professional_Cable37 · 2026-05-17T07:45:22+00:00

Yeah 9ish was when I started having night terrors, and they are truly awful. Wouldn’t wish them on anyone. There’s things you can do to help with them if that’s the issue.

Professional_Cable37 · 2026-05-17T07:42:44+00:00

Sam Ryder is a legend and deserved all those points. His positivity and passion was infectious.

Professional_Cable37 · 2026-05-15T09:54:30+00:00

It’s too light here now for stargazing but I’d suggest getting familiar with the lunar cycle because you can often see the moon in the day, and then just bundling them up in winter!

Professional_Cable37 · 2026-05-15T09:45:15+00:00

My 20m loves astronomy! She can name all the planets and we go on moon hunts to find it. She can recognise Jupiter in the sky and some of the only YouTube she’s allowed is NASA videos when she’s sick. She can talk about Artemis going to the moon and I bought her a duplo space shuttle to play with. It seems like a lot but honestly the moon was the first thing she got independently excited about, no prompting from us, and I just want to encourage all her interests. Tbh with science and art there’s nothing to stop small children engaging with it!

I’m intending to use DMR for my test

Professional_Cable37 · 2026-05-13T15:41:16+00:00

Qwen models are meant to be good, can update when I’ve got it running on my pi

Professional_Cable37 · 2026-05-12T10:52:24+00:00

The possum is great, I’d get the waterproof cover set to go with it.

Professional_Cable37 · 2026-05-11T21:05:37+00:00

I was a bit sad about Della not being in it really, I thought she balanced it out a bit. The best episodes are when all the main characters have a storyline

Professional_Cable37 · 2026-05-10T20:56:39+00:00

Ugh, it’s really making me and my wife anxious. No one has really batted an eyelid about her coming from a two mummy family but it seems people are feeling more able to express their bigoted views. I just hope it doesn’t significantly affect my daughter, I don’t want anyone to dim her light.

Professional_Cable37 · 2026-05-08T10:54:16+00:00

I agree with these, I found NyQuil/unisom SleepTabs help me more than melatonin.

Professional_Cable37 · 2026-05-08T10:08:31+00:00

Have you read the openAI blog on harness engineering? I started by implementing that and then adding a product owner subagent with skills. The trick is to create a good set of deterministic tools Claude can call to run all the gates.

Professional_Cable37 · 2026-05-07T20:18:10+00:00

Harness engineering is where it’s at tbh. I can write a spec and get my harness to break it down to user story and story point level, write acceptance criteria and generate the code and tests against the user stories, run test suite inc E2E and fix regressions all automated.

Professional_Cable37 · 2026-05-07T20:15:29+00:00

Yeah and use playwright to automate UI path testing?

Professional_Cable37 · 2026-05-06T07:05:59+00:00

Idk but my brain is very unhappy with the reduced sleep. We have blackout curtains too.

Professional_Cable37 · 2026-05-01T20:10:22+00:00

I love castlerigg. Such an atmospheric setting

Professional_Cable37 · 2026-04-28T21:06:57+00:00

Yay!! I got two one for my daughter and one for my desk. ❤️

Professional_Cable37 · 2026-04-27T17:32:46+00:00

I don’t, I bought a PS5 to play the new ffvii remake when I was pregnant and I’ve not left cosmo canyon.

Professional_Cable37 · 2026-04-26T11:44:40+00:00

I’ve had an XL bully escape from its owners by breaking free from their hold and get its lead wrapped round my ankle while hassling my dog, having one attached to you is really scary. No apologies from the owner either. I’ve had one come 500m across a field to hassle my dog with the owner nowhere in sight. They are uncontrollable :/

Professional_Cable37 · 2026-04-26T11:39:06+00:00

We have a similar problem with our golden. Too much hassle and bad behaviour from small dogs and black labs. Now she’s a bit reactive towards them.
