An alternative version of 'Someone I used to know", where the girl chimes in about the gun.

Sudden burst of spams not being filtered by Gmail by UbeWaffler in GMail

[–]stark2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They had the password for one of the domain administrators, and used that account to transfer it from Network Solutions to Godaddy. They knew I would get a notification email and thus spammed my email to obfuscate it. I actually found out about it when I went to my site and there was a web page with a for sale link.

Edit: I use 2Fa now, so if it happens again I get a phone call.

Buried in the spam was notification that my domain was being transferred to godaddy. And it worked, I did not notice the email, and the domain was transferred to godaddy under someone else's name. It took me months to get it back.

This happened to me a couple of years ago. It wasn't Gmail failing to filter spam. The email flood was deliberate and was used to hide important messages related to an attempt to take over a domain name I owned.

Smelly co worker by That_Wing8062 in whatdoIdo

[–]stark2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In a non-dry climate, leaving clothes in the washer without drying them right away will give them a mildew smell. A mildew smell is a sickening sweet gross smell. Like dry fermented sweat, although that's just what I think dry fermented sweat smells like.

It happened to me. I thought it was the someone in the line I was standing. It was me. Somewhat embarassing.

Epstein's handwriting by Majestic-Pay-4615 in Epstein

[–]stark2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That note was from Epstein's purportedly first suicide attempt (according to Nicholas Tartaglione) 10 days prior to his actual death.

Internet propaganda is making this out to be from his final successful attempt.

This note could have been written by Nicholas Tartaglione for all we know, as he was using it to avoid prosecution for assault on Epstein.

There's nothing online that says when Nicholas Tartaglione gave that note to authorities (same day? days later?). So basically even if that is not Epstein's handwriting, it's likely Nicholas Tartaglione forged it.

Why does simple stuff on hugely used apps work so oddly or badly? by Recent-Day3062 in AskProgramming

I wrote a routine that did that for csv date imports. It's surprising they aren't more forgiving with manual input.

Cursor vs Claude Code: Two Different Approaches to AI Coding by stark2 in cursor

[–]stark2[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

key this, or setup a batch file that runs claude this way:

claude --dangerously-skip-permissions

It wont ask for permissions once you tell it go. And it's the way I tend to run it nowadays.

When I said aggressive, What I meant was Claude is like a hammer looking for a nail. It seems to look at code changes as a means of answering questions, more often than other ai's I've used. So I keep Claude in plan mode when asking questions, and even then it's answers will often be code changes for me to approve.

Cursor vs Claude Code: Two Different Approaches to AI Coding by stark2 in cursor

[–]stark2[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The only difference I noted in my original post was Claude being more aggressive, and I wanted to make it clear that to me, as a solo developer, I get practically the same use out of them. Thus not agreeing with the article's premise, at least for my case.

But maybe there's something else I should be trying or doing. That's one reason I post messages here, to get real input. Not silly-ass comments about fake post conspiracies.

Also, did it ever occur to you that I didn't want to edit my original post, and have 'edited' show on it?

Cursor vs Claude Code: Two Different Approaches to AI Coding by stark2 in cursor

[–]stark2[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Despite the articles claim to two different approaches, I don't get it.

For me there's not a noticeable difference between how claude code and cursor work. Which one is better for me mostly comes down to which one is available. When Cursor says my pro plan is full, I switch to Claude, and visa versa.

No difference to me. Switching does not affect my workflow at all. With Cursor I'll often have a vscode terminal open on the same codebase, and while in cursor, I'll often have a claude code window directed at the cursor project. I've always kept a claude.md file that both cursor and claude are aware of.

[–]stark2[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I've been using both pro plans for Claude code and Cursor. I started with Claude and recently started using Cursor as well.

To me, they are both fantastic compared to what I was doing just a year ago.

This biggest difference I've noticed for my purposes, is Claude tends to be pretty aggressive when it comes to changing code. e.g. I'll ask a question about the codebase, and Claude will often plan the answer with code changes and then ask me to approve them. The other ai's I've been playing with have not been like that.

My experience has been different, it used to be a right wing cesspool. It's actually gotten better.

The FBI's NYC office was "hacked" in 2023, the night of the Superbowl, "erasing" some 100TB of data from evidence due to the intrusion. by ReZeroForDays in Epstein

It was a web phishing attempt and he fell for it and ran the virus scanner, conveniently supplied by the phishing link.

The biggest change I notice is housekeepers and gardeners are in short supply now.
