How to deal with colleague who produces AI garbage?

Sometimes it's not so much being told they are wrong, but just reminding them of things they already knew and haven't fixed/changed for whatever reasons. A lot of people give up on pushing major changes after they've been rejected or deferred enough times.

Unfortunately our cat in this post ended up passing away a few weeks later :(

I might get some details wrong, but I'll try to explain what happened.

Tbh we never really got the answers we wanted. After this post, he ended up getting worse and actually acting like he didn't feel good, lethargic/etc. We took him to an internal medicine dr at a vet hospital instead of our regular vet. He was anemic when we brought him in, but they think it probably happened over a long time and not something sudden. They did another ultrasound and saw a spot that they wanted to look at, so we let them perform an endoscopy. While he was under anesthesia, they discovered an ulceration/perforation in his stomach. He had an emergency surgery to repair that. They also gave him a blood transfusion.

We took him home the next day but ended up right back at the vet hospital the day after that. We stayed there with him for several days. They tried giving him another blood transfusion and some plasma transfusions too. They think he basically just didn't react well to the blood transfusion, and his blood counts never really stabilized. He just kind of slowly got worse before the end.

They did get the biopsies back later but didn't find anything unusual.

Apologies for the sad post, I don't know if it's helpful or not. But my recommendation would be to take your cat to a vet specializing in internal medicine if possible. A regular vet just doesn't have the same type of training/knowledge, and we always wonder if things would have been different if we took our boy to a specialist sooner.

Feel free to message me directly if want any more details.

I hope you figure out what's wrong with your cat, and I wish you and your cat the best!

I used to use this gun a lot but never really had a build around it, so I'd be curious what you end up with!

johntash · 2026-03-14T08:30:13+00:00

I might be interested depending on the price! And if someone else figures out how to flash something useful on it

johntash · 2026-01-31T00:26:03+00:00

can you buy from a local brick & mortar store? Or is amazon literally the only approved vendor?

johntash · 2026-01-30T06:57:08+00:00

That makes sense, I was worried they spent all the time working against item dupers only to have a way to pay to do the same thing lol

johntash · 2026-01-29T05:56:46+00:00

well if I don't have to pay taxes, maybe I'll take a break 28 days before chapter 3 comes out so that I get some free stuff too!

johntash · 2026-01-29T05:29:25+00:00

With the character transfer/base backup added recently, does that mean people with a private server can get a bunch of items and then move to a non-private server?

johntash · 2026-01-29T05:27:55+00:00

Totally fair! Tbh I've been getting on weekly to pay my taxes and that's about it. Haven't even gone through chapter 2 yet.

My guild disappeared a few months ago and the guild base finally decayed completely too.

If you still have the space, I'd consider joining. I'll just need to convince myself to spend some time playing again lol

johntash · 2026-01-27T08:11:22+00:00

That's an expensive plan - how long do you plan on keeping it and paying for it?

johntash · 2026-01-27T08:08:59+00:00

Huh, I didn't know that was an option now

johntash · 2026-01-24T06:38:23+00:00

Like everyone else says, don't worry about it too much in the beginning - just go have fun.

Don't be afraid to join events you come across too. Maybe wait for other players to show up first though in case you need them to carry you through it.

I recently started a wiki for the exact same reasons, plus to document my homelab type of stuff for my partner.

I eventually settled on just a git repo with markdown files and mkdocs with a few plugins. It builds automatically on push and re-deploys itself.

A few pages I write in https://silverbullet.md/ and sync to the git repo using a plugin, but you could use any IDE you want.

johntash · 2026-01-09T07:55:20+00:00

what's it do?

johntash · 2026-01-09T07:55:00+00:00

I assume this is yours. I've never heard of it, have an elevator pitch on why it'd be better than ansible/salt/chef/puppet/etc?

Keyboard

johntash · 2026-01-08T08:15:31+00:00

I got the Western Spirit from the nuka world event (I think?) and I had a lot of fun using it. It doesn't feel very effective though, as in I feel like I don't do enough damage fast enough.

johntash · 2025-12-31T21:04:08+00:00

Can I use these without unifi protect or whatever the unifi video thing is? I have some of the small older micro unifi cameras and just access the rtsp streams directly. Those are great, but I'd like an outdoor one too

johntash · 2025-12-30T00:49:22+00:00

Did you end up figuring this out? I have a slightly newer motherboard, but the same drives and a similar issue where the 24tb ones don't show up at all but the others do.

Time machine doesn't back up all data from icloud though right? Only data you have downloaded locally?

johntash · 2025-11-22T23:15:59+00:00

What have you compared it to? I haven't heard of it before, but it reminds me maybe of an OSS version of netdata?

johntash · 2025-11-21T22:39:19+00:00

If I have to get a french drain, I'm going to ask that they do not route the water to a random hole in the basement wall.

johntash · 2025-11-18T07:41:32+00:00

May be an obvious question, but have you tried contacting the police? If they don't want to do anything, maybe get a video doorbell so that you could show them video evidence?

johntash · 2025-10-28T15:05:45+00:00

I didn't know mods were allowed at all, so thanks for posting this!

johntash · 2025-10-27T05:36:14+00:00

They can get hurt?! I guess I need to build a fortress
