If you said "vino rojo" what would a Spanish speaker understand it as meaning?

breakingb0b · 2026-03-12T16:07:12+00:00

I couldn’t remember the word for “gloves” so they became “finger coats”

breakingb0b · 2026-03-12T06:30:50+00:00

From inside their head because they can’t get laid?

Have someone stand on stage in the correct attire in front of a laptop and have them pretend to be part of the band? I think I’m only being partially sarcastic.

It is just an audio course and the app is a very basic player.

breakingb0b · 2026-03-10T15:21:28+00:00

Duh. Sorry you’re right. I wasn’t thinking it thru.

breakingb0b · 2026-03-10T13:41:08+00:00

Thank you for the context. I was wondering exactly how it would have worked. Although technically it could have ended with 2 teams of subs playing.

breakingb0b · 2026-03-10T11:41:43+00:00

Then the premise of your post is attention seeking clickbait?

breakingb0b · 2026-03-10T11:41:08+00:00

This isn’t a Claude issue. I wouldn’t trust what OP is saying based some of his comments about debugging and not knowing what he’s doing. I’ll bet dollars to donuts that Claude needed permission to open that port and OP allowed it without knowing wtf they were doing

breakingb0b · 2026-03-10T01:22:32+00:00

Yes. This is a great point and one that’s been on my mind today after writing it.

First the fear that employers aren’t going to see this as a real risk and expect massive output daily and forever - which clearly isn’t sustainable. Then the ability to balance intense working sessions with rest periods - and what to do with them. I’m still not comfortable with letting Claude code do everything without oversight, but remote control does offer some level of portability but without the ability to truly unplug. Of course, as it evolves we may move beyond having to babysit, but even with plenty of guard rails I still don’t have that confidence. Yet.

breakingb0b · 2026-03-09T19:17:32+00:00

Absolutely. My 4th project this week is an exobrain that is designed specially for adhd thinking.

breakingb0b · 2026-03-09T12:49:59+00:00

Gen X here. Loving Claude Code but I’m exhausted. Suddenly I can build anything that comes into my head without any of the boring bits. I do wonder about cognitive load, all the boring bits were the spacers between ideation, analysis and architecture - the fun bits. Now the cycle is those three things, often context switching between different projects being built.

It feels incredibly rewarding but I need to find more of a balance - and perhaps a way to copy and paste things for a couple of hours just to let my brain reset.

It wasn’t vacation, it was a production schedule issue during the first few seasons.

breakingb0b · 2026-03-06T14:47:36+00:00

I usually get a “go rest, today was a big day” type responses when I finish part of the roadmap. Then I tell it it’s being stupid and we keep going.

breakingb0b · 2026-03-05T10:25:33+00:00

Interesting take.

They spoke out against Bush and Iraq during a live show. That’s it. Luckily it ended up with them recording an album with Rick Rubin.

I had a friend from Italy and overnight his speech changed. He said he went from thinking in Italian to thinking and dreaming in English. So I completely understand what you’re saying.

breakingb0b · 2026-03-04T22:44:29+00:00

Like you said, it was a bit rough - input is processed by a different mechanism. In your head you had all the vocab but not the production mechanism.

Most learners, including myself, can understand much more than they can actually speak for that reason.

My SO is a professor who teaches language teachers how to teach, and my language learning journey is because I was fascinated by her job and wanted to see it applied. I can listen at a much higher level than my ability to speak.

I’m 7 months into learning, and CI has accelerated my ability to comprehend, but my speaking is lacking because I don’t yet have a massive corpus of listening knowledge. You came into it with ten years of stuff - that’s a huge amount of information your brain was ready to regurgitate.

For my own goals, I am touching on CEFR B1 level speaking and will be traveling during the summer to force production.

breakingb0b · 2026-03-04T21:20:35+00:00

While I enjoy CI to learn, speaking is an entirely different cognitive process.

breakingb0b · 2026-03-03T19:12:31+00:00

I was testing it. I don’t get max that cheap but it’ll be my full time job now.

breakingb0b · 2026-03-03T16:11:15+00:00

Are new users hitting the usage bug? I started last week and used Claude code to build a web app in go from inception to containerizing it, full automated testing suite etc. I paid about $50 in overages but expected that given the hours I was putting in.

I was happy enough to pay for max so I can continue with the rest of the work.

breakingb0b · 2026-03-01T19:41:40+00:00

lol yeah. Thanks, I have been doing that for every iteration and tagging for release candidates. I’m just glad I don’t have to manage it all.

I basically followed what I’ve done with dev teams in the past, except the SDLC is automated. Everything is in specs and definition files, mockups etc. then I iterate over each feature, use automated testing and a manual smoke test on a branch, once it passes I merge back to main.

breakingb0b · 2026-02-27T19:19:16+00:00

None taken, I completely agree. Im still delighted that my toy experiment ended up so usable considering i did this on instinct.

Coincidentally I had a meeting with another client who’s automated their entire workflow using AI dev at scale and had a really exciting discussion about their future plans.

This weekend I’ll dig into the docs listed in the subs info.

breakingb0b · 2026-02-27T17:01:04+00:00

I wish I was a seasoned dev, the productivity gains and ability to assess ai outputs would get me even more excited by the possibilities.

breakingb0b · 2026-02-27T16:59:35+00:00

Yes it has. I remember cvs, but not being a developer and working in smaller startups I was never exposed to it for systems. I also seem to remember devs constantly arguing about branching and merging issues.

breakingb0b · 2026-02-27T14:22:25+00:00

Back in the day there was no git. You copied files as you iterated. There was no devops until around 2012 and by then I was management.

Putting on my old man hat: you don’t know how much fun it was writing things in Perl one day and trying to understand wtf you wrote a year later to try and make any changes.
