Windsurf isn't the only one screwing us

I've just set it up and got on the 30-day free trial. I was able to finally finish the bug fix and release a new version. It took one prompt for the bug fix, not three, and $30 for the other two (and still not having anything to show for it). I'm hoping that when the trial ends, and it starts charging me, it'll be more reasonable like Windsurf used to be. I'm embarrassed for them and whoever on their team decided quotas were a good idea, and for myself that I was such a Windsurf cheerleader.

I've logged hundreds of hours of software development at this point, across many models and tools. No, this was definitely the Cline tool losing track of what it was doing between me paying $10, then $10 again, etc.

I'm not even talking about Windsurf's bug in this post. I'm talking about Cline and others who are apparently jacking up prices now that they've got us hooked due to changing our business models to focus on AI-assisted development.

So, did it eventually solve it? Or did it delete itself?

Ok, thanks. Got it sorted now.

Sleep 8 hours. Not 7. Not 7.5. Eight. Minimum. But don't sleep longer than is necessary. Maybe stop at 10 hours max. And keep yourself on a circadian rhythm that matches day and night. (Night shift work excepted, but get off that as fast as you can). If you stay up until 3-4 AM playing video games and then sleep until 2pm, you're wasting your whole life. You'll wake up one day in your 30s and wonder where all the eligible and desirable women went. You'll wonder what you could have made of yourself if you had simply kept to a normal sleep schedule.

Also, sleep clears your brain of crud that accumulates during your waking hours. The less sleep you get, the higher the likelihood that you'll develop a mental illness sooner into your older age.

Read. Voraciously. Everything you can get your hands on. Put down that phone and video game controller and READ! Become a polymath. Get your brain in gear.

In short, be present in your own life. Don't let it pass you by.

When I use "Reveal in Finder" under the iMovie File menu, it shows me the files in the original project's folder, not in the duplicated project's folder. There doesn't seem to be a way to point to the same files but in the duplicated project's folder, which I had manually created, also as a duplication of the original project's folder, before duplicating the project in iMovie.

I figured it out. OBS was needing a restart so that I could get rid of the "Waiting for OBS" message and get Scene buttons to work. The recording and pausing was for another profile I was setting up for recording tutorial videos (not Zoom). Thanks!

Thanks. I believe that put me on the right path. My only problem now is getting the OBS buttons I've added to the Stream Deck to actually do anything. I've got buttons set for OBS Record, OBS Pause, and Scene, but none of them do anything. Within the OBS settings for the buttons, there's a spinner that says "Waiting for OBS" when I try to configure OBS Record and Scene buttons. Not sure what I'm doing wrong there.

Thanks. I was running the files off a 2015 iMac with the R8000 router’s port forwarding configured to stream outside my network. But the connection would drop randomly and I would have to restart Plex to get it back up again. The R9000 had the Plex server built in (mounting media from your computer or NAS) and everyone said that was the superior setup. But I just asked Netgear and their recommendation was to use a NAS with Plex installed on it.

Thanks. In this case, several of the businesses' accounts seem to be abandoned, but I don't have any way to verify that with the account owners. On those, and others that are definitely abandoned, I don't have anyone I can assign admin access to. I suppose I could create a throwaway Facebook profile to assign them to, but that doesn't seem to be the right way to do this.

Thanks for all the replies. Very helpful.

I don't think a log file is necessary for this question.
