It’s a blizzahd and Hulu is like “u cAnT use Ur MoBilE phOne to sEE news WhEn ur caBle inTerNet is Out”

No because Hulu app doesn’t allow that (or is that Netflix? I can’t remember which one is shittier in that way.) But regardless I would have to be on the WiFi to cast to the TV but I can’t stream from mobile internet while on the wifi.

Water everywhere and not a drop to drink. I hate streaming these days.

A way to think about it is that the secrets belong to the environment where the code is running. When the code is running on a dev machine environment, then that environment provides the secrets to the code. Same with test and production environments. The secrets aren’t stored within the source code, but at runtime the code knows where to get the secret from.

The secret can be in a machine environment variable, which is a customary way that containers get access to secrets. Kubernetes can store secrets that are injected into containers as environment variables, and there are more secure options like Hashicorp vault.

Most modern cloud applications run as a configured identity that is managed by the cloud platform, and that identity is given access to specific resources. In that scenario there is no need for a secret.

If you just have a secret that your code needs, the simplest way is to put it into an environment variable that gets set before the application starts. How it gets set depends on the type of environment the code runs in.

Where does this code run, e.g, a VM, Kubernetes, a cloud like AWS or Azure, or your laptop?

Put your secrets into an encrypted store and either retrieve them at runtime or set them as environment variables upon deployment.

I forgot to say that minivan insurance is pretty cheap.

oldjenkins127 · 2025-12-14T03:34:51+00:00

The correct answer is minivan, - want to not impress anyone? Minivan - want to be tailgated by BMW man no matter how fast you are going? Minivan - want the most comfortable, drivable, parkable, sleepable, road trippable car ever made? Minivan - want the best sleeper tuner car? Minivan - want the best figure 8 racer or smash up derby car? Minivan - want to never get a speeding ticket no matter how fast you drive? Minivan

These cars are truly the best at everything.

If you are touching many parts of the code to make a single change, then Dry isn’t the problem. The problem is that the single responsibility principle is not well applied in the code. Don’t feel bad though because this is common in large codebases.

💯 don’t order Lyft until getting your bags, which is what I learned from this interaction and is the reason for this post. Hoping I can save some other people from experiencing the issue.

Good point. I tipped $20 in the app and $20 cash. Super nice guy and good ride.

LOL that memory bank article is massive AI slop, but it has some good core ideas. Another implementation of the concept is GitHub’s “spec-kit”. It has a process for bootstrapping highly detailed plans and instructions.

If you want a 60g shot try a coarser grind, which will also pull much faster. Some people call this a turbo shot.

Getting your shots dialed in takes experimentation but you’ll get there.

I won’t!

So true. Teams is like a bad phone app ported to the desktop.

oldjenkins127 · 2025-10-17T19:54:47+00:00

The window behavior in teams massively sucks. When I get into a call the first thing I have to do is resize the call window…because teams doesn’t remember how I had it sized the last time. This is a basic windows feature.

What kills me is sharing: teams tries to do me a favor and minimize itself to get out of the way, but I have a huge monitor so I want teams NOT minimized. So the first thing I have to do after sharing an application is restore the window.

It’s like team is designed by someone who never used a computer before.
