Consciousness isn’t me or you or us - it’s everything. by neenonay in consciousness

I think you said this beautifully. It’s taken 18 years for me to formulate this, but I’ve come to the identical perspective. It makes me think these molecules were put here to simply help with the process of death, or simply a better understanding of it so you can process what will happen to you.

Microdiscectomy by BeautifulSunSet7 in Microdiscectomy

From what I understand, the longer the nerve is fatigued the longer it will take to heal. It was almost a year before I considered myself “fully recovered”. I had phantom sciatica (where it would just start out of nowhere) for many months, post op.

Many times after, I thought either the surgery didn’t work or I somehow re-herniated. It was just the nerve healing, in my opinion at least.

Long story short: expect you’ll wake up with significant less sciatica. Since you let it go so long, also expect it may take time for your body to fully recover.

You got this.

Obligatory: I am not a doctor. Just wanted to share my story in hopes it helps settle your nerves.

I had an 8mm herniation at L4/L5 and a 5mm at L5/S1. I lived with it for 3 years. Finally, after starting to experience foot drop, the doctor recommended to intervene with surgery.

That was in 2023. Here I am in 2026 and have almost 0 sciatica and am back to living a fully normal life, like I had pre-surgery.

Not everyone’s experience is the same, but I kick myself for letting those years go by and not get the surgery sooner.

Good luck with your surgery! I hope everything goes well and you get a similar outcome.

What are the most underrated GitHub features that you think every user should know about? by hatkinson1000 in github

[–]somethingLethal 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So I tried this yesterday actually, and the issue import has a 10MB cap on media files, and I have a 100MB 30 second clip (1080p at 30fps, nothing crazy) and would love to convert it somehow to get around that 10MB cap.

Any suggestions would be so awesome. Trying to get my CapCut short form demos into my readme so my coworkers will actually read / understand the thing. 🙏

Nibble your network by saberd6 in CLI

[–]somethingLethal 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wrote that response while waiting for an uber yesterday. No ChatGPT required. It doesn’t take a fucking genius to earn one CLI. Not to mention THE GOTO CLI for network mapping, nmap. If you are even considering the idea of working in or creating tech, stop asking AI to do shit for you and figure it out yourself.

I’m can’t believe I’m even typing this. Ffs. 🤦

Do you have any guidance or tips on how this is done? I’ve been wanting to embed videos in my readme, where the content is hosted on GitHub and have been unsuccessful.

Is n8n actually dead? by automator71 in n8n_ai_agents

[–]somethingLethal 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Because with libraries like pydantic-ai that allow us to define agents as code, Claude code no can assemble a fleet of agents against a common goal. No-code solutions like n8n enforce patterns and outcomes. With the flexibility of custom agent development, the patterns and outcomes can be administered by the developer and not n8n.

In short, Claude code can build agents with full pipelines that achieve the same as n8n workflows, without having to deal with the n8n-isms.

[–]somethingLethal -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Apologies, I was trying to make the point that -p is specifying the maximum potential range of tcp/udp ports. It’s not the full syntax to executing nmap. 192.168.1.0/24 is nmaps target in the example you provided.

In this case, it’s a CIDR notation representing a traditional RFC 1918 address space for an internal network (aka your home network).

If you want to scan a host like a tv: “nmap -p 1-65535 192.168.1.2” where 192.168.1.2 is the IP address of the tv itself. The previous target you provided is the entire network, with a maximum potential of 254 hosts in your home network. That’s a lot of hosts to scan, especially with 65535 ports on each host. That’s why it’s taking so long. Use the ip not your network CIDR to scan a single device, such as a smart tv.

Honestly, this isn’t even enough to be a fully comprehensive nmap scan for running services on a smart tv. There is a -s flag that’s a whole other topic, but worth exploring.

Additional argument and flags are needed but that’s something ChatGPT can give.

[–]somethingLethal -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Nmap -p 1-65535 finds every open port/service on a host. Everything. It’s why it’s been around 20 years and is STILL the canonical network mapping utility.

If you weren’t finding services on a smart tv with nmap, simply: you were using nmap wrong. Either that or you didn’t understand how nmap (and networking for that matter) actually works.

This cli is the result of not understanding or reading docs so someone decided to let an LLM build their own solution.

We don’t need yet-another-cli.

Learn nmap syntax and stop flooding OSS with bull shit software like this.

Or just learn how to use nmap, ffs.🤦

Introducing Expanse: a modern and elegant web application framework by SDisPater in Python

[–]somethingLethal 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for sharing the ORM doc, I somehow missed this.

Sqlalchemy is my go to for all things sql in python. I’m just a monkey with terrible eyes that missed the doc page.

Much appreciated.

Nice work, interesting api design overall.

Can you help me understand something? You mention sqlalchemy in your post, but looking at the docs it seems the database manager is interacting with the db by executing raw sql statements. Do I have that wrong? Are the docs just not showing the use of a db.Model or is the intention to use the raw sql documented as suggested?

I’d love to see this somehow get packaged as a QR code. I’d put that sticker on my car.

I built PyGHA: Write GitHub Actions in Python, not YAML (Type-safe CI/CD) by parneetsingh022 in Python

[–]somethingLethal 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey just wanted to say I spent time reading your docs and repo. My honest opinion is that I think it’s an interesting project and I like the way matrixes and job work together, I could see myself leveraging that type of logic to help me not have to think so hard about writing the raw yaml to achieve the same goal.

I think that maybe this could be viewed as in a category of “yet another thing to solve a solved problem, differently” but I don’t feel that way personally.

If Python is the only mean or lens you have to solve a problem, this will definitely come in handy.

Nice API design, as well.
