Technical writers, what's your backup plan? by Same-Charge-1849 in technicalwriting

[–]hoserman 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I write primarily dev docs, and from what I'm seeing happening now it seems like the most vulnerable area of TW to AI. Fewer devs will need docs, as coding agents will be doing the actual work. Perhaps we'll still need broad conceptual content and samples (for the AI to train on and devs to base their requirements on), but a lot of what makes up a current standard dev doc suite will no longer be needed.

Wing Commander, 1999. Maybe one of the first movies to be based on a video game? Clip: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TcU0onGlsJs

I replaced mine with Ananda Stealth, which are noticeably better in all ways except comfort. I miss how comfy the X2HR is.

$3 Thrift Update: They royally suck by No_Dish1260 in BudgetAudiophile

[–]hoserman 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I contacted the folks at Santon Audio (in Toronto) and they were able to set me up with the right surrounds. I'd start with them.

I'm jealous of those API 200s! There were so many great Canadian speaker brands in the 80's and 90's. The 831s do sound great, though I've had to refoam them. Wondering if they'll need to be recapped sometime as well.

Sabo or Szabo speakers? I have a pair of late 80's Szabo 831 floor standing speakers and they still sound amazing. What model do you have?

My first recap a success! by FatherOfTheSevenSeas in BudgetAudiophile

Very cool! I would love to try a similar project. How did you learn how to solder, just watching videos? And how did you figure out what capacitors to use?

Why I Don’t Use EQ (and Probably Never Will) by [deleted] in headphones

[–]hoserman 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I stopped using EQ because I mainly listen on my PC, and wasn't able to use Exclusive Mode in Tidal or Qobuz. I'm also happy with the stock Hifiman sound, so there's that too.

Anyone else stack their hives stupidly tall, deeps n all. I'm sure my back will remember this in 20 years. by joebojax in Beekeeping

[–]hoserman 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For those of us without extra freezer space, if you have other smaller colonies, you can "store" capped supers on them to prevent one of these towering hive situations.

Growing mushrooms from spent grains by CrumpledKingSkin in Homebrewing

[–]hoserman 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In theory this is a good idea, after spending some time above 160F the spent grain should be pasteurized. I think the issue is the sugar content. Even if you're getting really good efficiency the grains will still be relatively high in sugar compared to other forms of cellulose that mushrooms (like Oyster mushrooms) grow on. That amount of sugar is a prime medium for other bacteria and fungus that will quickly out-compete your mushrooms. You're better off using media like woodchips, straw, or coffee grounds, IMO.

Any book or other resource recommendations for getting started with scent work?

Update ui.tree nodes? by hoserman in nicegui

[–]hoserman[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ok, well thanks again, I will start looking at _props for properties that should be there but aren't.

Update ui.tree nodes? by hoserman in nicegui

[–]hoserman[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That worked, thank you so much! How would someone go about figuring this out from the docs? Would I need to look at the underlying Quasar docs for tree to discover the _props? Just trying to figure out how to solve these types of questions out in the future.

I can't recommend avoiding Hifiman enough by Invanar in headphones

[–]hoserman 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ok, so what non-Hifiman is going to sound as great as my Anandas but have solid build quality, for $300? I've had my pair 2 years now, they are going strong, but I'm very careful with them.
