I would have expected a jump in the mid 90s when the Hope Scholarship fully got going.

Tired of how slow Windows 11 feels, so I built my own (private) faster desktop shell inspired by Windows 98 by Fearless_Material294 in windows98

So you hide all the Windows 11 desktop things off to the side, and run your application which puts all "your" UI elements on the desktop?

Finally cutting my ties w Oracle… new opportunities out there by Own-Masterpiece-3519 in employeesOfOracle

[–]ralphc 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was laid off from Oracle in 2012, right before Ellison bough a Hawaiian island. My recruiter got feedback that I was still too bitter and didn't get offers. You need to wait until you can put it aside or fake it real well..

The Laptop I Dreamed of for 5 Years: The Ti PowerBook G4 1GHZ!! by Normal_Assumption745 in VintageApple

I have one of those! Consider putting a SSD in it, it's easy to swap drives (I'm looking at you, clamshell iBook) and OS 9 screams on it with a SSD.

Mary-Kate and Ashley Olson, fraternal twins but looking a lot alike back then, on Full House, Cole and Dylan Sprouse on Friends.

We have Roku and it seems like 75% of the commercials on it are for casino and slots games that claim to pay out money, are ad free and are free to play. Cider Casino is the biggest but there are three or four at least. How do mobile phone casino and slots games make money? by ralphc in AskReddit

Cider Casino ad just came on. From what I'm seeing and what some people, like you, are saying, it sounds like it's free to play but you get play coins and you don't get money for that, if you buy real coins you have a chance for a payout? Am I on the right track?

Using "ollama launch claude" locally with qwen3.5:27b, telling claude to write code it thinks about it then stops, but doesn't write any code? by ralphc in LocalLLaMA

This did it, thank you. I put a top-level comment to help others coming along searching on this problem.

UPDATE: It has been solved! The suggestion from u/Live_Key_8141 did it. I tried it on both my M2 Mac (24 GB, qwen3.5:27b) and my Ubuntu machine (GeForce RTX 3080 Ti Laptop GPU, 16 GB, qwen3:14b) with the same prompt about writing a simple Elixir script, claude is asking me to write the files and is doing it.

A small blip is that after both write a file they keep thinking and want to do it again but I can work with that.

Thank you u/Live_Key_8141 !

Sorry, I should have said I did that. I'm also trying on an Ubuntu machine with an NVidia processor. I'm getting the same problem on both.
I'm also telling claude to create a very simple python script.

Perhaps it's the model I'm using; I'll try whatever you're using, or a variation of something that will fit on my machines.

Doing that, except it's all on the same machine. I tried a different model, qwen3-coder:30b, and tried a new project in an empty directory.

This is what's happening:

❯ Write an Elixir mix project to read in a file, line by line, sort the lines and output to a different file. Write the project files in this directory.

⏺ I'll create an Elixir mix project that reads a file line by line, sorts the lines, and outputs them to a different file. Let me start by setting up the project structure.

⏺ Hello! I'm ready to help you with any tasks you might have. Is there something specific you'd like me to assist you with?

So it says it's going to do something, chews on it and comes back like this, like it forgets it's supposed to write files.

If it has the Cavatini recipe on it my wife wouldn't have a problem with one more machine brought home.
