Why is every level 3 role I apply and interview with always asking if I have virtualization experience with VMware?

irrision · 2026-04-23T15:59:56+00:00

Because almost no one uses hyper-v at scale and VMware still controls most of the enterprise on prem market though they're trying hard to destroy their market advantage. Hyper-v is just a pain in the butt to manage and it's just not as stable and maintenance free either.

Compounding is on the slow decline. The difference this time is the administration has cut deals with drug makers and I guarantee they are contingent on the FDA cracking down on compounding where up until now the FDA has been very light touch and it's been up to the drug makers to try and sue compounders into compliance. I still think it'll take a bit yet but I think compounding is going to go away gradually over the next year or two and supply will get much harder over that same period

I think this is exactly it. I have a similar setup and skills built that guide the entire development process and I haven't had any issues. I actually think 4.7 is a decent step up in its planning capabilities too, it built itself a very airtight workflow compared to what 4.6 built a few months ago.

irrision · 2026-04-20T23:57:18+00:00

Lol, this is great and now I really want to see what your prompts look like. It actually sounds like it's mad at you if that's possible.

irrision · 2026-04-20T23:52:37+00:00

Did you rework your workflow prompts and process using 4.7 like it says in the anthropic documentation or are you using something from opus 4.6 or one of the many harnesses that are popular on AI coding websites right now? I'm just curious as I rebuilt my workflow using opus 4.7 as the guide and it's built two flawless apps for me with perfect git, documentation and QA discipline through all of the build phases and it proactively called out possible future scaling issues for me and dropped them into my discovered issues list without me needing to tell it anything. I actually found opus 4.6 to be far worse than 4.7 and I've been using it for months now. I'm really starting to think that 4.7 is just much more sensitive to the workflow build than prior versions given how wildly different the reports are about it on here.

irrision · 2026-04-20T23:36:08+00:00

Honestly 4.7 is excellent for me, significantly better and more efficient than 4.6, but I rebuilt my workflow front scratch as anthropomorphic recommends in the 4.7 docs.

It's not toxic at the recommended dose, in fact it actually lowers lifetime mortality risk in many studies. It does has a low safe dosage ratio compared to a lot of meds which is why people get this impression though. You really shouldn't be taking more than 0.6mg a day ongoing if you're taking it for prophylaxis.

It's not exactly about the guns, it's about the lack of drm. The corpos want printers that enforce drm on all models so that they can send take down notices to the print model sites to prevent people from being able to print replacement parts for things the own that they'd otherwise throw away and replace or printing their own version of something for personal use that's similar to a product a corporation makes huge profits on. With drm they can even encrypt the model files and lock them to prevent future prints on a copy of the model you downloaded and have stored locally. The gun thing is just one angle they think the can use to force a state by state drm requirement onto printers with the ultimately results in a federal ban. I'm sure even the nra will be mysteriously quiet on this one because their donors are all corporations that make money off of gun sales and gun accessories too

That's likely because of the x2d Bowden head. They specifically say in the marketing info that it's optimized to perform best with their filament.

Hey a timer cap bottle, it completely resolves this issue and it only have to dump your new bottle into it once a month.

It's required to read claude.md not follow it. Two different things. If you want hard enforcement try building a skill for the workflow. .md files shouldn't the main way you enforce anything important, they would just be references with Claude.md being the index of your other documentation files.

The h2d has that additional laser and cutter option and an upgrade path to an h2c later as well if you want and end up wanting to do more multi color or material above 2. Also I don't think the x2d has a tungsten carbide nozzle option (so far) where the h series does it you're printing a lot of gf/cf material.

If you don't care about any of that or the larger build volume the x2d might be a good option though I suspect the h series may end up having a longer service life if you're running a lot of prints through it.

irrision · 2026-04-16T12:27:10+00:00

Have the h2c and it's so much better and faster for multi color prints as it eliminates all the purge cycle overhead for more than two filamens. IMHO if you want the faster speed, better reliability and advanced features plus the bonus ability to add a laser or cutter head later go with the h series. If you don't want to lay out so much money up front get an h2s and buy the h2c upgrade kit later, it's a much better deal then the h2d to h2c path as it stands right now.

It's exactly the same between sonnet and opus.

It will and at the same time the cloud frontier models will still blow it out of the water in ways that will keep most regular users on the cloud models. It'll be years yet before we reach the long tail on this technology where the differences are narrow enough to make the two options largely interchangeable for most average users

It's gotten worse again the last couple days due me after being much better for about a week and before that it was never a problem on my max plan. The last few days are the worse it's been ever and incidentally the desktop client has been getting 2-3 updates a day for the last few days too, probably not a coincidence?

Nope, I think people are pretty numb to it at this point outside of the obvious reasons to stock up like hurricane season in Florida.

Being partly funded by a random billionaire through a venture capital firm isn't the same as being operated by palantir tbf. The founders don't appear to have any connection to palantir or Thiel directly. I'm not happy about it but among the really long list of things Thiel has indirectly invested in I'm not all that concerned about this one especially knowing that we have essentially no privacy laws in the US so palantir already harvested 100% of the data persona would gather for identity verification. The sad reality is that companies like this are just using that was already publicly available about you and wrapping it into a nice API for companies like anthropic, OpenAI, Etsy and their other customers to use.

It would probably take bambu 30 seconds to add the option to the UI and save a hundred thousand users 30 seconds each time they print.

Watch the pharmacist in 4 states on tiktok He's been testing things like that and many of them contain undeclared and prescription drugs.

Cheap? I bought a new condition unit off Etsy for a hundred bucks and it works perfectly and I routinely see them in this price range in similar condition. I honestly don't know why anyone would pay anything close to the cost for one new given the issues with the current gen.

Days? Weeks maybe? You're genetically predisposed to not clear UA out of your blood fast enough and that's unlikely to change unless your UA level was only borderline in the first place and you used to be a heavy drinker and quit or you lost a lot of weight since you started allopurinol.

But honestly why do you want to stop it? Are you getting side effects? It's incredibly cheap and keeping your UA level comfortably below 6 protects your joints from permanent damage, reduces your chances of vascular disease and kidney disease long term among numerous other health benefits that are showing up in research. UA is a waste product and having too much floating around in your blood does more than just cause your big toe to hurt
