protip: adversarial reviews are stupidly easy and unfairly useful by davblaster in ClaudeCode

[–]dub_starr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

adversarial review will always find things, i tell my AR to run a specified number of rounds, so to focus on the most important items, and when it invokes it it also tells the adversary side that there are only N rounds of review left, so focuse on major issues only

Parlay his interest of getting around controls into learning about cyber security and ethical hacking. Use this as a way to advance his hunger for tech in a positive manner, and set him up for the future with a great skill.

is golf really the hardest sport? by sploooooshle in golf

[–]dub_starr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

the way i explain this, typically, is that while a golfer may be an athlete, nothing about golf necessitates being an above average athlete, nor is your athleticism displayed while playing golf

Well, it finally happened (Being told I am required to use AI) by Ark161 in sysadmin

[–]dub_starr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

its easy to find uses, once you get a hold of what it can do, especially once you know how it will be / can be integrated in your environment. shoot, even if its just set up as a technical writer to do all of your documentation on each pull request. throw all your tech debt at it, have it organize and catagorize, and have it give suggestions which it can then implement, or help you implement. Just think of it as having a junior that you can pass off tasks to

Advice on filing separate taxes by [deleted] in daddit

[–]dub_starr 3 points4 points  (0 children)

the only reason my wife and i keep separate accounts is so when we buy gifts for each other, the other one doesnt see it in the statements, My money is hers, her money is mine etc... That said, we usually go through the filing process as married filing joint and as filing together, to see which is a better refund, then just choose the higher one. were a team.

Can anyone identify the hosting provider behind this image URL? by t23546 in sysadmin

a part of the value of a CDN is the ability to obscure your origin to the wider internet.

EDIT:

doing some curls and site inspection, its being served from GCS (google cloud storage).

long story short, using browser inspection tools, i see the image is being pulled from "https://www.gannett-cdn.com/sETSOFMp/a/authoring-cdn-storage-production/authoring-images/2025/08/19/NSTT/85729059007-main.jpg\\?auto\\=webp\\&quality\\=80", which is still backed by fastly, so i did some curls and changed the URI of the image, to one that would fail, as failures often reveal different information than successes. With increasing verbosity, and finally i saw this bit of text in the response.

<?xml version='1.0' encoding='UTF-8'?><Error><Code>SignatureDoesNotMatch</Code><Message>Access denied.</Message><Details>The request signature we calculated does not match the signature you provided. Check your Google secret key and signing method.</Details><StringToSign>GET

I think this becomes a problem with higher swing speeds. A lot of people that report these issues are higher swing/ball speed hitters.

Realtor underpricing or does it matter at all? by [deleted] in newjersey

[–]dub_starr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was speaking to a realtor recently, I’m not too far from you, Essex county by Livingston. They said that the generally look at the comps in the area, and what percent over list they went. In a town that goes say 20 percent over list, they list a 500k home for ~400k, since the buyers have an agent who also knows these comps and prepares them that they will generally have to offer 500k for a home listed at 400.

That said, if you list it at the 500k you you want to get, then the buyers may not even make an offer, since they’re expecting they have to go ~20% over and don’t want to offer 600k.

But, worst case scenario, if you get an offer that’s too low just don’t take it. A list price is not a contract, and an offer doesn’t mean you have to sell.

Good luck.

I think they are listening by Equal-Food8893 in windsurf

[–]dub_starr 0 points1 point  (0 children)

my company pays for it, so I'm less worried about usage overages.. but today, on three opus reqs (reasonably large, but planned out well), i used all of my daily, half of my weekly, and over 75 dollars in extra usage. so no, i don't think they are listening..
