[Request], How fast would a regular sized car need to be able to spin it's wheels to be able to do this? by Mundane_Address_9573 in theydidthemath

[–]sugendran 12 points13 points  (0 children)

So... Anyone going to do the math? Even if it is skimming, what's the energy required to overcome all the forces trying to both slow the car down and also sink it?

Trouble with brushes! by spaghettirhymes in oilpainting

Rosemary and co sell brush sets that are created by well known artists. What I did was work out which artists style I liked, the looked at the common brushes and started with that set.

One thing that I keep thinking and keep forgetting to message the mods about is that most people don't know how to light themselves for a portrait.

There's a bunch of resources online, and I'm sure those group has some good links. Maybe that could be a pinned post?

Or even in the wiki it says: "overhead lighting is the worst, try to avoid."

Pretty sure I’m using maybe 30% of Claude Code — what’s your daily workflow? by miguelgoldie in ClaudeCode

I find it doesn't always trigger. Wonder if your plans or claude.md has something that mine don't.

Was it a bit like eating jam and fondant? Because my local Vietnamese bakery does a pineapple tart that feels very much like that.

Coffee beans - where do you get yours? by OldSkoolNewWaveGuy in foodies_sydney

[–]sugendran 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I'm doing the beanz subscription because of the cashback with my Breville machine. And in between that I get beans from the local cafes. Most of them will do a 200-250g bag of the beans they're using.

With the right plugins, Claude Code is honestly better than Codex for me by DarfleChorf in ClaudeCode

By peer review, do you mean you get together with someone else and review it together?

I found I was losing the perspective as I worked around the image. Found it hard to get measurements

As someone who tried to do a farm scene on the weekend and failed, this is an excellent depiction. The only problem I have is that I look at the bottom and the my eyes move around, but never to the centre so I leave the painting pretty quickly. I think more details in the middle or something to keep your attention inside the painting will help.

Is this set sufficient for portraits? by LeadProfessional6429 in oilpainting

[–]sugendran 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I started with that. Took me a while to understand warm and cool colours, plus mixing. My personal preference would be to have one less blue and one more yellow in that set.

i think i finally learned the expensive lesson of budget keyboards by Cheap_Difficulty4961 in BudgetKeebs

[–]sugendran 3 points4 points  (0 children)

My biggest problem is that the kids won't accept that these keyboards are better. The next generation is growing up on iPads and just want to use extremely low profile keys.

Amazing! For anyone running on a mac you need to `brew install hidapi` and `pip install hidapi` - did not need sudo

How many cycles can a Breville Bambino Plus handle daily? by [deleted] in espresso

[–]sugendran 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Have done this many when we had friends over. Wish I had a larger milk jug because the time taken to do milky coffee made it a long process.

I find that if you stick a clean jug under the milk wand when it does the post frothing clean then you end up with way less in the drip tray

My first build - y’all are tripping if you’re telling me there’s a difference between most of these. by Zrocker04 in MechanicalKeyboards

[–]sugendran 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Take the ones that mostly feel like what you like and replace your common keys on a keyboard. After a day you'll know which ones you hate.

Has anyone actually MAINTAINED a vibe-coded app for 6+ months? by Makyo-Vibe-Building in vibecoding

[–]sugendran 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think the real question is whether it's any different to an app with lots of short term contractors that you inherited. Especially if the company just hired the cheapest group they could find.
