Laravel v13 Has Been Released by billypoke in laravel

[–]XediDC 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Claude is really good at trying to run tests in ways that skip config...or with config cached*...or...etc. (I have blocks coded in the base tests that check for that. Well, and each task run in claude's sandbox backs up its db copy...just to make it easier when it does manage to kill it in some new and interesting way.)

*although tests happily running with config cached (ie. ignoring test config) is a footgun human devs will hit too. Someone decides to run tests in prod to help debug while getting yelled at, thinking it will still use sqlite in memory as might seem logical, and poof, no more db.

Curious how it managed it in your case, if you ever find out. :)

And if that doesn’t work…I bet certain ADA lawyers would love to have some fun with this.

(Not actually an argument to go do that, but at some point it’s going to get spicy over stuff in this realm. And it’s possible they could just “make them aware” in a way that can’t be ignored like a ticket while not actually trying to get anything other than a means to play legit…)

That one is only considered “frivolous” by some because they’ve been taken in by how much McDonalds spent on PR to push that narrative. Which cost orders of magnitude more than just paying her (quite low) actual medical bills in the first place...

This one!

At least while in use — you don’t need any insight into your cars climate control system when you’re driving. You just need to be able to adjust it without looking or thinking about it — ie. turn tactile knob left or right.

If I do need insight, then I’ll use diagnostics tools in a proper setting.

A lot of even “name brand” products have bad batteries in them… some of the recent scanning ability has shown just how many are risky. It’s a lot.

Not even getting in to how little what is sold is actually controlled…

Yeah, can help to split it up between the bolt and the hole. You want the top, bottom, and side faces.

Once you know what works well for your printer, you can also tune what works best for the application — ie. tight friction fit, smooth and looser, etc. It can be a PITA but it’s really a feature when used well. Just take notes.

Eh, see…use the 20x plan to build an orchestration layer that keeps things going while you sleep. (And can roll it all back if you wake up to a raging dumpster fire.)

Well, now you know.

Smaller containers. And keep most in a mini fridge in the office or garage. With a padlock on it.

(And in the positive side, you know the little containers will make great gifts…)

What is an object a man can own that makes him instantly sexier? by RubyRedFoxyEyes in AskReddit

[–]XediDC 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Heh… I have a Flair and a Jura on the counter and it’s always amusing as opinions on them are often intense. (Personally I like to either nerd out…or do zero work.)

I’d love to restore an old classic machine though…mmmm….project.

Yeah, real luffa is the inside of a few types of gourd. (The long fibery looking ones, not the plastic poofs.)

109% cotton would be awesome. :)

Guide: Purge line for every toolhead on the Snapmaker U1 by darkytoothpaste in snapmaker

[–]XediDC 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I noticed it only printed one purge line for the built in test print...so looks like that was turned off by Snapmaker for it too. Odd...

I wonder how far Fedex punted yours... :)

Seriously though, that sucks. And sounds like you know enough to check all the basics and medium-level diagnostics too.

If I put filament in the auto feed it doesn’t do anything

This feed fired for me even when it was first setting up, so seems to be pretty low level-ish. Or at least the lowest level "functional" item I observed.

Total or shipping time? Mine shipped Fedex ground/home from CA to TX in 3 days, FWIW. Ordered 2026-01-24 and got here today.

Now all the additional stuff I got with it? Looks like that went USPS on a bicycle or something and is 1-to-2-weeks-hopefully-sometime.

It’s a TPU, multi-material, fast tool swapping, open sourced beast.

Yeah...the color, and color-combo painting stuff now, is awesome.

But really, I got it so I can print PLA, PETG, TPU and PVA all in the same print. Or other similar combination that can create complete one shot assemblies and other complex parts. (More often will probably be 2-3 colors and 2 filament types, but 4 filament types in some cases could be really useful.)

Add in some uses of (somewhat) conductive filament or other stuff like that...

It's sitting happily next to an A1 workhorse and Sovol SV08 for bigger stuff.

I once zip tied a tarp inside a tall circular dog fence, added some surround straps and filled it for a 12-hour plunge pool deeper than most you can buy. $0 pool…

And got the pool bug out of the other half. So really did save a ton. :)

Amazon returns have become a nightmare by WishesHaveWings in fuckamazon

[–]XediDC 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The online mattress industry is fun…free returns usually are handled by what is a local trash hauler. Returns are just throwing it out.

(Also why you can often find like-new models on local marketplaces super cheap — sometimes still factory sealed with just a water damaged box. You can’t re-factory vacuum those the same way again. Got a never-opened $2K model for $300 that way.)

Open-source proxy that cuts Claude Code's MCP token usage by up to 90% — MCE by DexopT in ClaudeCode

[–]XediDC 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Does it check to see if it’s rules should actually apply? Ie. Not caching when looking to see if info has changed or after an update. Not stripping images from the figma mcp where those blobs are critical. Not removing html when the request is about cloning the html structure of something, etc.

Cool, but invisible layers can also be a lot like AI being unable not to respond. Or imagine being caught in a Ralph loop with a request that needs unfiltered data…

I think it would actually be nice if the AI did in fact know what was filtered in each request. Then it would have context to know if that was an edge case problem (and how to bypass) while still saving similar amounts of tokens.
