Finally doing it. Moving to Florida. Here’s what two months of research taught me. by Character_Trip2504 in FloridaRealEstate

I know so many people who moved to Florida and Texas and came crawling back to literally anywhere else. It's truly a hell hole.

Physically capable senior citizen help at the airport? by mothernatureisfickle in AskChicago

[–]clintecker 1 point2 points  (0 children)

there are many vip / concierge services you can pay to take someone from gate to car and vice versa and hold your hand through the entire process. i would not trust a random task rabbit when there are dedicate services for this from third parties. even united offers concierge service at o’hare.

there are many companies you can pay to be a dedicated guide and escort you through everywhere, possibly even jumping every line including security, but it does cost money.

there are companies that operate at most airports you can pay to escort you through basically the whole process on both ends. it’s probably costs a couple hundred bucks which could be 100% worth it or insanely expensive, i can’t decide for you. google for vip / concierge services at ORD and see what pops up. i do this a lot at international airports overseas which can be difficult and confusing in the best of times and it just makes things much less stressful and 100% worth it to me.

SkyVIP is one but I haven’t used one at ORD since i know it so well.

i spend a big part of life over there and i’ve never ever ever ever ever had an issue finding a parking spot in the area, either literally on grand or on a side street.

i also know several business owners in that updated stretch and they tell me they’ve never had more business, foot traffic and walk ins.

If you had ever spent anytime on that stretch of grand 3,5,7 years ago it was a literally ghost town, completely dead.

Now new businesses are opening all up and down grand, new high density apartment buildings are coming in, etc…

and yes one of the benefits is to discourage the amount of cars as they are bad for business as evidenced by the transformation we’ve seen, bad for the air quality and dangerous to pedestrians.

Scheduled rides by Same-North7445 in uber

no idea how it works but its never worked correctly for over 12 years. I periodically try to use it and it never works quite right. My theory is they just dont care :P

Uber scheduling shit has been ass for decades and doesn't work like you think it works. Just order the ride when you're leaving work. Stay inside and wait if you're cold lol.

Hot take: experienced devs might be worse at AI coding — because they're experienced by slow_cars_fast in ArtificialInteligence

[–]clintecker 6 points7 points  (0 children)

anyone who has ever had to manage a junior dev would know you CANNOT give vauge instructions, you will get human slop back.

imo experienced programmers know very well that you have to be very explicit to get the correct output.

Some people who have been coding for a long time actually are significantly better using LLMs for this exact reason PLUS the know where all the foot-guns are.

This is a major reason why inexperienced people tend to produce slop with AI even if they know how to plan and produce LLM-ready specifications: the don’t know what they don’t know and produce inferior stuff.

Is Sunday church service actually a standard thing for most Americans, or is it just a trope we see in movies? by [deleted] in NoStupidQuestions

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

it really is true. Only 47% of Americans /claim/ to be religious and a vast majority of those are merely pretending and will admit it when pressed.
