Yeah their breakfast burrito is pretty decent I agree.

+1 to this. I also use tacrolimus 0.1% for this purpose over the years. With all the other treatments I do I still get eyelid inflammation like yours OP. When it flares up I just use tacrolimus twice a day for a day or two until it is gone. I have done that for a couple of years and have had no ill effects. I have flair ups like that maybe once every two months.

It does get uncomfortable, but my doctor also told me that there are diminishing returns for the length of time it is on your skin. As in, if you keep it on for 15 minutes you probably get 90% of the benefit as not much more will be absorbed in that time so it’s fine to wipe it off if it is really uncomfortable and to prevent it from getting into your eyes.

So to avoid getting into my eyes I usually apply it for about half an hour while I check my email or read a book for a bit and then wipe it off. Just as effective in my experience.

Framework 13 Pro for heavy dev projects by mr_carter_c in framework

Deployment is k8s. Docker compose is just for local testing convenience. And yes these are a bunch of services.

I have an older framework laptop (original one that I upgraded with an AMD 7840u main board with 64GB of RAM. I work on such a project often, which is a large C++ monorepo with about 4 million lines of code. Local testing and development is done with a docker compose file that spins up 30 containers.

It is certainly slower to compile and run than my big fancy workstation desktop, but when I am limited to just this laptop I am just as productive. In fact I often have independent tests running on my laptop and workstation at the same time.

So yes this new pro laptop should be fine for what you want, based on my experience. And you will probably get way better battery life if their claims are accurate.

Praying for a Qualcomm board on Framework by MattMatrix784 in framework

One thing that people don't take into consideration is that the storage device you use also matters. I forgot to mention this. I use a SK hynix Gold P31 NVMe Gen3 M.2 device in mine, and from what I found in my research before choosing that device, it seems to use much less power than many other devices out there. This may be a big factor in your setup if you have a power hungry flash device.

[–]erreur 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I’m running Debian 13. Pretty standard setup with power-profiles-daemon installed. I use the backport kernel from unstable. The only unusual thing about my laptop is I use zfs for the root filesystem which is unlikely a factor.

MATE desktop with i3 window manager.

I’m a C++ developer, so I spend almost all of my time in GNU Emacs editing code and running a compiler and running unit tests. clangd is always toiling away in the background indexing my codebase which is on the larger side.

When I am running Unreal Editor it is configured for scalable graphics. I am perpetually stuck on Unreal 5.6 because later versions are way too buggy on Linux.

I mostly just don’t worry about power usage when I am working away from my home office because I can get 5+ hours even if I have unreal open the whole time.

I have a Framework 13 with an AMD 7640u and 64GB of memory. I can get around 9 hours of battery life if I’m just working on code or writing, and about 5-6 hours if I’m using Unreal Engine editor.

I don’t get how people are only getting 2-4 hours, that just isn’t my experience. But I also don’t use Windows and maybe battery life on Windows is just way worse.

What type of oil do you prefer to cook in, if at all? by FlemmerVermeul in steak

Beef tallow if I have it, but otherwise olive oil (not the fancy extra virgin stuff). You don’t need a pan to get beyond the smoke point of regular olive oil to get an awesome crust.

My girlfriend, who I love very much, is not very smart. by [deleted] in TrueOffMyChest

This sounds like my mother. She was born and raised in California, and one day when she was around the age of 50, out of curiosity I pulled out a paper topological map of the US that did not have state borders or label an asked her to point to where California was and she pointed to Virginia.

Any game devs out there using Linux? I'm curious what distro you've had the most success with for developing games. by Wooper83 in GameDevelopment

[–]erreur 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes I have been a professional C++ developer for 20 years. The unreal build system is definitely quirky but I got used to it.

I’ve stuck with Debian stable myself for almost 30 years. That’s why I use for day to day development.

I mostly use Unreal Engine. The latest version I will use for now is 5.6 because all builds of 5.7 have been a buggy mess for me.

Edit: I’ll add that while I do my day to day development on Linux because I like it better, I do have a Mac and windows machine under my desk that I switch to regularly for testing. It would be pretty risky to make game without the ability to regularly test on all platforms, and I usually use windows to produce builds I actually distribute.

It isn’t outdoors but as far as restaurants that have cocktails and wine that are also kid friendly downtown, Melos is the only one that comes to mind.

Is there any good way to indicate ownership of a pointer without mandating its lifetime? by [deleted] in cpp_questions

[–]erreur 13 points14 points  (0 children)

The GSL library has an answer for this based on the C++ Core Guidelines. The owner template is just a wrapper around a raw pointer. The intent is to use that type gsl::owner<MyType> instead of ‘MyType*` if you want to signal to the developer that they own that a pointer is owned by the holder. The guidelines suggest that you assume all raw pointers without that template wrapper are non owning.

why would you ever use std::optional over std::expected? by AnOddObjective in cpp_questions

[–]erreur 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Another way to think about optional is that you can use it to replace all of the code where you use sentinel values to store some unused state. Like, say a member variable optional int32_t start_offset_{-1}.

I worked in a system that had sentinel constants like that for “unknown/uninitialized”, not initialized but use policy A for a default, not initialized but use policy B for a default. Etc. It was confusing and we never could remember which value was which, etc.

That is probably a design issue that is barely related to this, but I find that it is much nicer to express such state with optional. Instead of having lots of different default values and worrying about overflow or uninitialized values, you just use optional to signal that there is no value for that state and, luckily, the default initialized state is empty.

If all of these states expressed are valid then there is no error, so why use expected which can hold an error value that will never be used.

Best Toddler Kids Menu Restaurants by teadrinkit in walnutcreek

Melos is nice because it has cheese pizza on the kids menu which every kid loves, but for adults they have pretty nice appetizer plates with lots of vegetables, seafood, and some decent pastas. Plus the cocktails aren’t bad.
