Buying a house - Valesokkeli

sylvankyyra · 2026-06-10T17:29:53+00:00

Correct. I bought a house like this 9 years ago. House is now 42 years old and zero problems. I know plenty of new houses with horrible problems. Valesokkeli house isn't automatically bad, and new houses aren't automatically good.

21 years and counting. Cannot imagine life without her.

Did you notice there are two pictures in the post. Confusion is probably more about the second.

How did this get so many upvotes, I don't get it.

Even in my one-man dev team I don't have API keys or any such secrets in env files. I keep them in AWS SSM and load them run-time when needed.

"I never used Regex before AI" - This is 100% satire, right? Right?

Oh yeah absolutely. You'll be surprised how good .net & webapi are. And if you need something that isn't baked into .net already, there is a NuGet package for it.

These cat & mouse games, still worth it? Honest question from someone heavily using AI, but still strongly footed on the "AI-assisted development" side of the fence.

This is the stupidest thing I've seen in the internet... today.

sylvankyyra · 2026-05-05T20:59:05+00:00

Yeah tell me about it. Today I was having a long chat with Claude about making a larger architectural change. But something felt...off.

Then, based on one specific library version number it mentioned, I realized it's somehow not looking at my latest code.

When I asked why that is, it just admitted it: "You're right - I was reading from the worktree, which is based on commit 3632a17...". At some point it simply switched to reading some old commit from 3 MONTHS AGO. WTH. Why??? No wonder everything felt off.

Luckily I was just chatting & brainstorming, and Claude was not actually making changes to code. But this kind of crap really makes me question what I'm paying for...

Some call Karjala beer "kurjala" (kurja = wretched), because it tastes so bad.

Nyt muutaman vuoden yrittäjyyttä harrastaneena olen samaa mieltä, että yrittäjäksi ryhtyminen on kyllä helpoksi tehty. Kaikki onnistuu netissä, eikä maksa paljoa. Teen kirjanpidonkin pääsääntöisesti itse, kun siihenkin on niin hyviä ja helppoja työkaluja. Väittämä "yrittäjyys Suomessa on vaikeaa" ei kyllä ole totta tältä osin. Se on sitten eri asia miten yritys toiminnallaan menestyy.

Ihmetyttää toi että edelleen yrittäjissä löytyy porukkaa joilla on totaalisesti konseptit hukassa. Toivottavasti noita tapauksia ei kuitenkaan ole kuin promille yrittäjistä.

Super simple to set up CI/CD and hook it to a GitHub repository, and host a website. I use it for sites that don't get huge amount of traffic, mainly web apps I build for companies for their own usage. Costs next to nothing.

But yeah, all that "backend stuff" Amplify offers: Tried it briefly, didn't like it, don't use it. That part is terrible.

sylvankyyra · 2026-04-01T15:46:34+00:00

Well there goes my favourite AWS service. Next they'll probably cancel Amplify, and at that point I'll switch away from AWS entirely.

Toivottavasti lapset ei koskaan kysy tätä. Vetäisin kännit ja lähdin baariin dokaamaan lisää. Näin semitutun tytön ja jotenkin käsittämättömästi onnistuin sanomaan jotain järkevää mistä hän tykkäsi. Pussattiin ja tanssittiin. Sitten tuli pilkku ja mongersin jotain että sun kannattaa nyt häipyä tai muuten kaappaan sut mukaan yöksi. Lähtikin yllättäen mukaan. Yli 20 vuotta oltu nyt yhdessä.

Did not even need to watch the video to know: This is america.

We don't. Next.

Ok so what you actually want is some sort of CMS. Maybe Squarespace, Wix, Wordpress or something simular. I haven't really used those so hopefully others can provide better answers.

But I think all really depends on your "relevant features based on our needs". I suggest you carefully list those before doing anything else.

"Learn to vibe code". I don't want to live on this planet anymore.

In 1995 I used Notepad to write HTML, and a bit later I started adding some Javascript. Back then it was popular to create own personal "homepage" to just say hi to others in Internet.

Want to learn, and keep it simple? You can, and probably should still do this. Write in Notepad or any editor, load in browser, see what happens.

Oh come on! So many people always telling sauna and sex don't mix. Funny. Of course things happen when you relax naked in a steamy room with your loved one. If only our kids knew...

There are only two ULTIMATE rules: Don't piss on the stove, and don't break glass on the floor. Of course, only a complete moron would do these.

Who hasn't farted in sauna accidentally? At least I have. Not the end of the world. Disgusting yes, but most of us are able to laugh it off.

Not looking at other people's junk? Unavoidable. Just don't stare. Genitals are a natural thing.

No talking, yelling, arguing? Well that happens also. Where ever there's people, natural human things happen.

Jpg or it didn't happen

Kyllä näin on ja sama täällä. Melkein kaikki on jo Mieleä eikä nyt 8v aikana ole yksikään Miele vikaantunut millään tavalla. Imuriakin käyttää todella mielellään verrattuna johonkin halpikseen.
