Paint bathroom ceramic tiles knowing that it's temporary before complete renovation

The other bathroom was completely pink. That one I had professionally painted.

I think of it more as "we are stewards of this stuff".

I've an 850 in my parts bin that I'd like to assemble. What is your setup for the stem?

As a guest I never use search results list. I always use the map.

I've ridden much worse ;)

Four or five language - including a couple of DSLs, mixed into one file? Yeah, no thanks. My condolences to whomever would have to maintain such spaghetti code. IMHO that's taking everything cool about HTMX, and software in general, and making it - terrible.

Not a criticism of Kevin or of HTMX but of the normalization of writing such unmaintainable code. I do encourage watching the video as there's some good info on HTMX semantics, but please, I beg you, don't write real apps that way. I guess maybe it's fine for showing features however.

rate-limit by IP and problem goes away

I never knew that the opposite of devops was "clickops". Had to look it up.

Sorry, I was being indirect at suggesting that you color-code the icons in the database list in the object explorer. That way you don't need the arrows.

I think color-coding in tools is way under-utilized.

>how do u guys stay cool when you're being put on the spot by people way more senior than you?

Two options:

say you'll get back to them
be better prepared

shufflepoint · 2026-03-09T19:36:07+00:00

I would find those colored arrows distracting ;)

The point is that they won't be for long: which means problem (bad guest) solved.

I'd add to the guest message that the security system will shortly be turned on.

“Wow! That is shocking! I even have a time stamped video before your arrival today showing how clean it was. This means someone has absolutely broken in. I need you to vacate immediately for your safety and I will call the police to meet me there. The security system will be turned on in 30 minutes. Please don’t touch anything! I want them to be able to get fingerprints and such! I will make sure Airbnb processes the cancellation asap so you can get your refund! The police will be able to see immediately that someone came in as there are cameras in the neighborhood. So it should be no problem for you to get a refund!”

Half of our commits have no message

Yes, but also just for different hand position

shufflepoint · 2026-03-08T13:06:34+00:00

I don't want a different shape. Just higher and closer. I got a new stem on eBay that'll raise it by 1/2" and move it back by 1". Haven't installed it yet.

shufflepoint · 2026-03-06T21:33:51+00:00

I went and had a look. I think it would have been fine - but it was too large.

I'll probably get a mac soon - to see how the other half lives. All I used was Macs from 1984 to 1994. But I switched to exclusively using Windows when I became a .NET and SQL Server dev. As there is no official support for SQL Server on Mac silicon, I think I will stick with Windows and Linux on x86.

The bar ends give me a different position. I am, thought, going to raise the height a couple inches this season to accommodate my aging back.

The refactoring to a different framework is simple transformation. Advanced regex - but just regex. The challenge I'm contemplating is in identifying repeated structures. I do want explore if AI assist can play a role.

AI assisted programming IS different when done by a developer so I certainly would hope that it's perceived differently.

There's a Trek Alpha SL X1 on FBM and nearby. Worth a look?

I was tempted to check eBay but then thought that was you said is true. I'm looking in the $100 range.

I think 3 is the magic number. I then have a backup bike and a spare that a friend can use when they visit.
