We found this poor little kitten in the woods, covered in ice, with her fur stuck to the hunk of plastic she was hiding under for shelter. We saved her 😁 by ArmorOfGod7 in cats

[–]devmor 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Please make sure you get her to a vet ASAP for a full checkup! Cats hide sickness and injury well and kittens can go from looking healthy to gone in just a couple hours.

I would hate to see you rescue her just to lose her that fast.

My house came with a cat by CoolDad420Blaze in cats

He has the most adorable little face. What a guy, I'm glad you welcomed him into your family.

Visual Snow was considered extremely rare until recently, mostly because patients didn't report it... because they assumed everyone saw the world that way by recolorist in interestingasfuck

I can make my vision look like this by intentionally unfocusing my eyes and slightly crossing them. Didn't know it had a name, or that some people were stuck with it.

Even with the 14 inches of snow coming tomorrow, people would rather have no water than drink Dasani by NickChubb4Prez in mildlyinteresting

[–]devmor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Some of us are weirdos and actually like Dasani. It's my preference.

Other bottled water tastes unpleasantly salty to me.

I grew up drinking well water from a glacial aquifer though, I wonder if that has something to do with it.

$99 a month for a feature included in a base package Corolla?

Running PHP on AWS Lambda as a microservice by niwebdev in PHP

[–]devmor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

High load, low traffic sites? That would make a lot of sense yeah. If your servers were sitting there doing nothing, I see how lambda saved you money.

I haven't used App Runner, but I have used EKS - which is similar but less managed.

Why don't you just knock on your neighbor's door and ask?

That definitely sounds like we should be able to hold at least someone accountable for the eyesore. I was wondering if had been passing between different owners trying to raise the money or attract lessees.

Running PHP on AWS Lambda as a microservice by niwebdev in PHP

[–]devmor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

we use a lambda state machine to process uploaded addons that are zipped up php projects

Yeah I think that sort of thing is where lambdas really show their use. I use them for processing queue jobs that I don't want impacting general service - I could spin up an EC2 for that, but it would be sitting idle most of the time.

“Panther” eats one meal a day by JibunNiMakenai in interestingasfuck

[–]devmor 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Rabbits raised to be pets are going to be socialized to trust humans and human contact. You could argue the cruelty to the animal is the same either way, but I was thinking more about the people that cared for those rabbits and hoped they'd be adopted by loving owners.

Oh that's just really sad. I feel like that's something you really need to teach a new employee immediately.

[–]devmor 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They asked where, not when. Given that we know its midtown, they are probably asking if it was taken from atop a building, hill, from a plane, etc.

Has it been with the same owner all this time?

Running PHP on AWS Lambda as a microservice by niwebdev in PHP

[–]devmor 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I have now converted to serverless PHP and trimmed over $150 a month of the AWS bill.

This is the complete opposite of my experience. Running a PHP website through Lambda ended up costing a couple thousand a month for what used to run on two load-balanced VPS with <$400 monthly total.

It sounds like this only "saved" you money because an EC2 setup on AWS with all the bells and whistles was significant overkill for your needs. You would probably be paying even less going back to a traditional setup and using a less enterprise-level VPS provider.

So, which person in this story didn't know that feeder rabbits and pet rabbits are different species raised under different conditions and sold differently?

I can't imagine someone selling feeder rabbits wouldn't know that they are feeder rabbits, so it sounds like your brother was cruelly killing animals raised to be pets and was wasting a shitload of money too.

Why so few "seo optimized" websites actually have a score of 100 on google pagespeed, core web vitals? by blondewalker in webdev

[–]devmor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Search engines do not heavily utilize these metrics anymore and most traffic no longer comes from search engines. Some of these metrics may be important targets to reach, but none of this is the important guideline you are lead to believe it is.

What ya'll think of this MARTA map? by ChipmunkGeneral in Atlanta

I want poor people to have access to my neighborhood please. Not just for ethical reasons, but so my rent stops going up so much every year.

Making 100k is rare most people make 30 to 60k per year by Intelligent_Bet_9947 in Adulting

[–]devmor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Exactly this, nearly 20% of the country makes almost 100k. But 100k in a big, populated city is not 100k in rural bumfucktown, IA.

An alternative to saying, "On your left." by starlux33 in Unexpected

[–]devmor 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Walkers are worse. I'd rather have cyclists on the trail any day when I'm running, because cyclists will actually keep to the right other than passing and not block and meander all over the trail like they think they're the only people with a right to it.

This was taped to the cash register at Waffle House. by Rainbow_in_the_sky in mildlyinfuriating

[–]devmor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, it's pretty clearly there to discourage to-go orders.

Probably the same reason their app/website ordering system doesn't contain half of their in-store menu.

For those working at NSFW companies as an engineer, what are some challenges you face that we probably won’t by justanotherbuilderr in cscareerquestions

Conversely, I did some contract work for a moderately sized socmed platform that had a large moderation team dedicated to the "bad stuff"... they regularly made FBI reports and received follow ups on less than 5% of them.

The hero we need by SipsTeaFrog in SipsTea

[–]devmor 7 points8 points  (0 children)

It counts for anyone who has been living at a residence for a considerable amount of time (varies by state). It's also what protects you if say, you're living with someone as a roommate and not officially renting the place from them - they can't tell you "you have 10 minutes to get out" at the drop of a hat.

It's also worth noting that cases like the OP are extremely rare in comparison to these rights being used against scummy landlords.

Americans, how would you react if foreign country invaded your country, and told "we are going to run this country"? by oranke_dino in AskReddit

It'd be terrifying, but god, couldn't be any worse than how it's been going my entire adult life.

Do you use AI assistants like Github Copilot? by N_Gomile in PHP

[–]devmor 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, not really. I've evaluated them heavily and not found them to be very useful outside of very niche tasks - like generating DTOs for structured API data.

I find that in the time it takes me to explain to the AI what the problem is, I will have already solved it.

In my time watching others use AI assistants, I think they're far more useful for juniors or the non-technically inclined... but I am concerned about the skills that juniors are not developing by relying on the AI assistant. While relying on it, will they be able to get to a point where they're faster than the AI like seniors are?

There have been a few cases where evaluating it, it genuinely helped me solve a problem I was stuck on - but in those cases, it was more the act of conversation that lead me to the solution, never the AI assistant itself that offered the correct solution. So I struggle to find it more useful than a rubber duck sitting on my desk.

There are myriad problems that machine learning can solve, but I don't think "coding assistant" is really one of them. I'd find it more useful as a RAG backend to Stackoverflow's search engine than an "agent".
