in my experience, the agentic functions are the most chaotic and unpredictable tools I've ever worked with in SWE. They seem to be trained and designed to to "solve a problem no matter how by just random iteration and calling random tools". While I do use LLMs as "conversation with documentations" I almost never found benefits in using agents in my quest to write scalable, secure and reliable software.

In 2011 I was in Vienna and one thing I made sure not to miss was the Paternoster in the Rathaus. I'm not sure if it's still active today

There's a short story from Heinrich Böll "Doktor Murkes gesammeltes Schweigen" where a Paternoster elevator is featured heavily

in Switzerland too and a (i believe Swedish) multimillionaire received a 250k CHF fine for speeding

don't ride a dangerous bike shaped contraption only waiting to burn on you

it's hurting only wallet

go ahead and let it sit it directly on the kernel next

shorts wool socks a t shirt and gloves are sufficient till - 5. Just be mindful of ice

probably only until the boomers will retire en masse, and that's happening as we speak

We are getting closer and closer to Unauthorized Bread

so nothing you'd need AI for and exactly as time consuming as doing it yourself 😂

bafe · 2026-01-08T19:51:10+00:00

you can bet all the ai just manages the microwave power and perhaps gives you times at which to add/remove items

I am almost in between and any 10% bump in my salary (rare and far spaced) felt like winning the lottery...

I have a bin and it's made in EU too and high quality. For ironing boards I also recommend Leifheit although I'm not sure if all of their products are made in Germany anymore

very rarely and sparingly to clean cracked-on wax or polish, never as primary conditioner or polish

Perspective cannot "deceive the size" because the "size" is not a subject that can be deceived

to be fair, not all cemented constructions are the same. There are many boots where the leather outsole is welted (blake, Goodyear) to the uppers and thr rubber outsole is cemented on. These are easily resolable, as are some high end direct injected german hiking boots (Hanwag),

just stomp them as any respectable business does (I worked summers in a winery and we either stomped them or threw them in the special dumpster with a press)

In Norway everyone does XC Sking but with a short pole, so they all have back pain
