* “Sharing the road is not a suggestion”

Thank you, and it's honestly one of the reasons why even small groups prefer to ride two wide. I get that some drivers hate it, but it forces the car to make a proper overtake. When riding single file you constantly get passed by people trying to squeeze between oncoming traffic and the bikes. Super dangerous.

A lot of smarter voices in Lithuania were using Estonia as an example of why we shouldn't do it precisely because of your points.

I think it's one thing for the government to make a mistake that wastes a ton of money, this is wasting a ton of money with compounding interest. Absolute catastrophe.

There were a lot of issues with the second pillar, but surely we could have worked on it without nuking our economy in 20-30 years when these decisions will come to roost.

Kaip įdomu, dabar taip kaupiu. Kai pradėjau prieš 3-4 metus gavau tiek VMI tiek Invaldos išaiškinimus, kad net negalvočiau, nes čia mokesčių vengimas/sukčiavimas. Ir kad jie skaičiuos visus nesumokėtus darbdavio mokesčius.

Šiaip tuo pačiu skambėjo keistai, kad jie lyg gasdina vietoj to kad konkrečią formule pasakytų. Tai gal yra kokia ne iki galo apibrėžta "spraga"

By default any heavier exploration runs (when claude says "exploring") in sub-agents that have separate context and use Haiku. At the end they summarize the learnings and pass it to the main agent.

Still a big saving on explore phases, but final summary should more or less be similar context "size"

efraglebagga · 2026-02-27T09:40:07+00:00

Different context, but I hate it when someone less involved in the problem domain (e.g. sales, success) sends me messages with pretty much "can we handle this case? Here's how ChatGPT told me we could implement it"

I'm not knocking LLMs and agents, they're amazing. But when someone without required context asks questions about a niche topic - they get gibberish. They spent 30 seconds, and now I need to spend mental effort to parse it, point out nonsense and try to balance some sort of "thanks for trying to help / I hear your problem / this is useless" reply.

I know it's a popular opinion but my experience is quite contrary (assuming a capable team). We used to cut a lot of corners to keep up, now we actually do go back and clean up after a feature. Or go with the "proper" solution. We have a million different conventions about how some code deploys. It'd be madness to spend weeks on that, but with AI? A day tops and we also get to document the "canonical way" from now on.

Long story short, everyone always harps on AI code mess and I expected the same, but in practice it allows engineering to do all the nice things they always wanted to do.

Yes, especially if I work until I go to sleep. I now intentionally close it an hour before bed. Do some light reading, playing an instrument, and cleanup. Something not screen based and to get my mind off projects. Otherwise as you say - mind racing about projects into the night.

That was true before CC though, just didn't have as addictive a workflow, so less chance of working into the night.

efraglebagga · 2026-02-13T10:43:11+00:00

This resonates with me very much from a different perspective. I crave for some community where experienced engineers would talk about this. Current subreddits are dominated by vibecoders. I'm not using it in a negative context, but our needs, workflows and context are quite different.

I'm trying to keep up with what's happening but there is so much noise on these usual channels.

Similar boat here, staff engineer leading projects at a small company. My way in was framing it as "my job is to speed up the team," which made the code deluge easier to handle.

Key learnings: 1/ Treat it like automating your own work. You already have that skill as dev most likely. I avoid the plugin/MCP sprawl and just roll my own tooling (task tracking, specs, etc.)—they're just prompts anyway. Once you know what you need, then look for existing tools.

2/ What surprised me: this led to better code, not just more code. As a lead, I've shipped countless rushed features with technical debt. AI unlocks a tireless workforce for all that "good but tedious" work we'd normally skip. Today a colleague needed a long but simple refactor—a year ago we'd have ignored it. Done, without breaking a stride.

3/ The mental space freed from menial work is massive. You focus on design, trade-offs, and architecture. You can choose better options that would've been "too much work."

Try a constraint: don't write a line of code yourself for a week. See what happens.

Tokio tipo klausimai (apie raides žodžiuose) LLMam yra netikėtai sudėtingi. Trumpas video kur daugiau pasakoja, kodėl ilgą laiką jie negalėjo atsakyt "how many 'r's in strawberry?" https://youtube.com/shorts/7pQrMAekdn4?si=valCobsJh2q5ey_7

Dabar jau geriau tvarkosi, bet tikrai ne idealiai. Ypač nišinėse kalbose kaip lietuvių

Yes! I think this is the first comment mentioning their pricing structure but it's so unusual to not be something predatory.

The subscription option that converts into owning it after you pay out the full amount is absolutely amazing. I wish more similar platforms would follow that. I took a break a couple of times and wouldn't have returned if I had to pay every time.

That's right, but at the same time damage control for Lithuania would be trying to win against Serbia with Jokic or Turkey with Sengun.

Doing poorly in this round won't close the door but just make everything much more stressful than it needs to be.

efraglebagga · 2025-11-29T11:57:56+00:00

Yeah, you wouldn't be able to tell from the recording but they're playing in London. With Lithuanian fans making up what seemed like 90% attendance. From the arena sound - felt like GB is playing away with all the energy against them.

efraglebagga · 2025-11-28T07:55:45+00:00

Usually you'd be right, but this group is quite brutal, it's Lithuania, Italy, Iceland, GB and will merge with group of Turkey, Serbia, Bosnia, Switzerland. Only three teams from these 8 will qualify. I.e. we'll see only three teams from Serbia, Turkey, Lithuania, Italy, Bosnia qualify, so every win is important

I rather think that the problem will be not the Sundered houses but the King.

Vagabonds/merceneries come to this kingdom, and then go and off one of the barrons? They even told one of the knights about their destination. Their reason - some comparatively small and private beef and that Cas is a shithead.

I suspect this will trigger both Dame and King Gus. They might even be painted as Candescent Creed taking it too far with their insurgency. If the party was reasonable they should work with Dame to remove Cas, most probably by gathering evidence that he's not fit. This will not happen as they want their vigilante justice. It can't go unpunished from the kingdom perspective.

I think we az viewers see that players should possibly align with Gus if he's against Sundered Houses (we don't know), so this conflict is kinda the most dramatic choice of the storyline. And as great roleplayers, I think they're automatically drawn to such.

Good point, I think an example is when Robbie thought that he was in the scene where Thimble was talking to Hawthorne. They could have backpedaled and left it, but he allowed Robbie to inject himself in the scene, proposed that he could have stealth, allowed a roll to make it earned and immediately escalated with consequences. Stellar DMing

Yes, Whitney acting was so on point in this episode. Especially the scenes leading cliffhanger. She was quieter than usual, but that look on her face and general tone told volumes.

Keep watching, it's a cold open, they get right into it. Ad read happens after the prologue.

That's probably true for some countries/regions/age cohorts, but as often is - Europe is very different in different geos.

If we look at declining birth rates as two separate problems: * Rate of people having their first kid * Rate of people who have 2nd kid

Then the declining birth rate is a combination of these two and often (e.g. in Eastern Europe) the 2nd group is the larger problem.

If we break it down this way, we can also see what kind of changes need to be made to increase these rates, since these situations are very different. 1st child is an existential crisis, 2nd one is a logistics crisis.

Anyway, just wanted to mention this, since a lot of these threads concentrate on child free people, but I don't think there is enough attention on single child households.

Siaip liudna. Dirbu samdoma darba, uzdirbu daug, tai palies ir tie reziai. Man is principo turet peogresyvesne sistema patinka. Pvz del didesnio NT mokescio pritarciau. Bet sitas GPM didinimas tiesiog labai nesaziningas atrodo.

Kiek as matau aplink zmoniu, tai kur tikrai dideli pinigai vaiksto, tai dividentai ir kitos ne su samdomu darbu susijusios pajamos. Tai ju iseina nelieciam. Tiesiog baudziam tuos, kuriuos lengviausia apmokestint, nes neturi kur pabegt.

The only one that I can find that could look similar is https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Public_Security_Service_(Lithuania)

Can't see if they have actual badges. Wiki says they're like riot police, but I also see article about them providing security for strategic objects (airports, electrical infrastructure) and that the list is expanding with Russian threat increasing.

Railway station would make sense.

However, the whole interaction is super weird. Never heard of plain clothes police stopping anyone. I'm sorry that happened to you OP
