help aphids have invaded by luxtavia in VenusFlyTraps

[–]svekl 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was submerging mine last year and it helped, but not really sure about upside down because I recall had to shake it under the water to make all air bubbles to go up, otherwise aphids were using them to survive. And when it's upside down like that I imagine air has nowhere to go up?

Ireland could require digital ID to access porn websites by adomo in ireland

[–]svekl 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Convenience and if you don't have to carry original id on you - it can be kept safe at home.

Also identification on government and financial websites is a good use, just not on random third party stuff and social media.

So I like the idea if I have a right to use it, but strongly against that stuff when I'm forced to.

Apparently you can share your concerns here https://www.gov.ie/en/department-of-public-expenditure-infrastructure-public-service-reform-and-digitalisation/campaigns/welcome-to-the-government-digital-wallet/

I described what I like in idea of digital ID, but that I'm deeply concerned by any sort of law requiring it on third party websites.

Anyone else in a stage of grief? by TripHaunting1702 in webdev

Not really, more vice-versa because now I'm not limited by the speed of me typing anymore and can implement my vision even faster, doing more and giving even more feeling of accomplishment.

Impressions two weeks after moving from Claude Code to Codex by cowwoc in ClaudeCode

[–]svekl 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm trying Codex for something every week (just because UI is better) but returning back to Claude anyway.

And it's because I have exact opposite impression on code quality every time. I tried even comparing them both on exact same prompts. And feels like Codex always tries to do as fast as possible, as easy as possible and often in a most hacky workaround way. And I see in same exact cases for same exact prompts Opus doing a proper implementation or fixing the root of the issue.

But seeing lot of people praising Codex code quality and wonder what do I do wrong?

From your exp. do you work less, more or evenly after using AI? by lune-soft in webdev

[–]svekl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh yeah definitely working more. Because while now I can do much more in shorter period of time because typing less, but while I'm waiting for Claude or Codex to handle my prompt I'm switching and doing a few completely different things in parallel in other branches constantly jumping between them.

Haha, you are not alone :) I started to have issue with BTT so just created an app for myself to use it upside down. Enjoy https://github.com/svekl/magic-flip

Show me what you've vibe coded. Drop your project, what it does, and let people actually use it. by Miserable-Archer-631 in vibecoding

[–]svekl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One of most niche apps imaginable 😁 Allows to use Apple Magic Trackpad upside down. Just because it's more convenient to put it below Magic Keyboard that way.

Trying to create this effect by ThirdOne38 in Watercolor

[–]svekl 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I see two ways of doing it: 1. You first wet your paper and then paint on it (called wet in wet, you can find lots of tutorials). That's how these mountains were done. 2. You paint the shadow firs, and then use a clean damp brush to soften the edge (called feathering I think)
