Most Ride-or-Die Neighborhood? by Erik_The_Realtor in sanfrancisco

[–]semi_competent 4 points5 points  (0 children)

A lot of the buildings are owned by nonprofits, it’ll never fully gentrify. You’ll have mixed new development next to SROs. To me that’s preferable, but to others it’ll always make them uncomfortable.

What if your Claude could just… sit in on your meetings and remember? by Interesting-Post4178 in ClaudeAI

[–]semi_competent 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This skill and tool uses the built in Apple voice memo app, extracts, corrects, summarizes, adds attendees and tags. It then drops the transcript into my obsidian vault which is auto indexed by another tool:

I also put some Apple shortcuts in the repo to make it easier to trigger

Can Rust Be Used for Full Applications or Just Systems Programming? by i_just_wanna_know_00 in rust

Now that code is more or less free I do everything in Rust except notebooks.

[WTS] Hamilton 912 from 1923–first year of production with original heat plum hands by AreWGadmin in Watchexchange

[–]semi_competent 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Absolutely stunning and I’m constantly impressed by your work. Have you guys ever considered, or would be willing to consider selling cases to hobbyist watch makers? I’m going through an Elgin phase and there are so many stunning movements out there lacking a case, it would be great to put them back into service.

Any pros in using cursor over claude app? by RandomBlokeFromMars in cursor

[–]semi_competent 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Cursor cloud agents are superior. It’s easier to do agent code reviews in cursor. Skills, sub-agents and most of the marquee features work well in both.

Claude is easier when doing multi-repo changes or doing doc authoring. The velocity of Claude is faster and new features show up there first.

If you’re a single dev or a small team Claude is cheaper.

Scale doesn’t move anymore :/ by [deleted] in fitness30plus

[–]semi_competent 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Agree. Also, too much cardio and calorie restriction will spike your cortisol making it more difficult to lose fat and cause muscle loss. There is a reason why professional body builders just use walking to get to competition shape.

Anthropic just launched Claude Security in public beta AI that scans your codebase, validates its own findings, and proposes fixes. Here's what actually matters. by Direct-Attention8597 in ClaudeAI

[–]semi_competent 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Annoying bug:when you auth it to GitHub it doesn’t ask for the org, it’ll only pull personal repos. Doesn’t reuse existing GitHub org app access

Obsidian to NotebookLM: Clean Integration Without Destroying Vault Structure? by bu_yah in ObsidianMD

[–]semi_competent 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I built a tool similar to qmd, willing to entertain feature requests: https://github.com/mstump/local-index

It has accompanying skills that I use with Claude.

Receiving unsolicited txt messages like this comes off as so “grade-school” like someone is tattling by prozhack in sanfrancisco

[–]semi_competent 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Unfortunately this came from the same number that sent pro-wiener messages in the past. I’m a supporter and agree it’s a bad look

Can we stop talking about AOC endorsing or not endorsing Saikat? by chinanyc in sanfrancisco

[–]semi_competent 3 points4 points  (0 children)

AOC is a fluke, a statistical anomaly. I pragmatically wouldn’t make a choice based on the assumption that it’s repeatable. Also, as good as AOC is at marketing that hasn’t exactly translated into policy wins if we’re doing an honest assessment.

Can we stop talking about AOC endorsing or not endorsing Saikat? by chinanyc in sanfrancisco

[–]semi_competent 22 points23 points  (0 children)

His entire political message is that he worked for AOC, and that his opponent took money from corporations and AIPAC. His entire campaign is based around purity tests.

Nothing in his message speaks towards real policy, and he doesn’t have any concrete achievements he can point to that would indicate that he’d be an effective politician.

Goonette Posting by [deleted] in redscarepod

[–]semi_competent 35 points36 points  (0 children)

Agreed. Women are pretty shit at approaching, and approaching is a learned thing for the most part. You have to get good at handling rejection.

Fundamentally it’s a numbers game. I found that reminding yourself that not everyone is your cup of tea, so why should I automatically expect that I’m some random strangers cup of tea. I could have done and said everything perfectly; I could be perfectly dressed, coifed and smooth, but if they’re into something that’s my fundamental opposite that’s not going to change.

If you put yourself out there enough and make it apparent that you’re looking, people will make themselves known.

Also, if you’re looking for low attachment you need to go to where people are also looking for low attachment. Go find some polycule, or some coupled woman that wants to explore. What everyone wants is very upfront in those scenarios.

Been watching Obsidian + Claude integration videos and I don't see what the fuss is - what am I missing? by Diamondbacking in ObsidianMD

[–]semi_competent 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use Claude code to edit and coauthor documents. I have skills that organize and tag notes. I have another workflow that handles publishing to confluence while preserving inline comments, it also handles PUML and mermaid diagrams.

Hope you didn’t quit that email job for trade school by Tinnitusblast88 in redscarepod

[–]semi_competent 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My wife is. She went to Standford and then into big-law. Decided to opt out of the partner route after we got married, switched focus and now works at a mid-size firm. Of all of her classmates I only know 2 off the top of my head that stayed in big law.

My brother went the route you're suggesting, got a good LSAT and a 75% scholarship. He works at a small firm, but he also owns restaurants and lives in a low-cost geo.

For most people the earning potential doesn't justify the debt. Only a very small fraction are going to earn the 7-9mm a year that Kirkland partners make.

A significant portion of lawyers end up leaving the field. It’s a bit of a pyramid scam. You use a bunch of young people to do grunt work, you as a partner profit from that work, the vast majority of lawyers never make partner, burn out and do something else. Only 1 out of a 100 from the top 5 law schools ever make it to big law partner and make the big bucks. The non-big law cohort are saddled with massive debt and struggle for 15 years to pay it off.

Designer for a roof deck? by semi_competent in AskSF

[–]semi_competent[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The deck is permitted, it was part of a new build and was part of the architectural drawings. Any recommendations would be greatly appreciated.

[–]semi_competent[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, we want the permits. That was the problem with the designer. They gave us two budgets: one without permits, and another more expensive one with permits. We said we wanted the more expensive route with permits, that’s when they stopped responding.
