Yeah baby! Strip those regs! Who’s ready for some more early 2000’s level fraud induced corporate bankruptcies? We’ll call it “Vibe Accounting”, which is where some idiot who can barely add uses an LLM to spit out financial statements that have no basis in reality.

- Comment on Trump's video on the shooting of Kirk appears to be AI 2 days ago:
I would not put it past Donny Bonespurs to have Kirk assassinated as either a distraction or to use as a pretext for more power grabs.
I’ll admit it’s a little tin foil hatty but considering he views other people as completely disposable, I don’t think it’s that far fetched.

Well you see, it’s ✨magical✨ data that only executives can interpret. Us lowly employees just wouldn’t understand it.

“Vibe Executing” is apparently how alot of CEO’s do their jobs. They didn’t know how to gauge productivity before the pandemic and they still don’t. They just pull whatever sounds good out of their asses at any given moment.

Personal Anecdote
Last week I used the AI coding assistant within JetBrains DataGrip to build a fairly complex PostgreSQL function.
It put together a very well organized, easily readable function, complete with explanatory comments, that failed to execute because it was absolutely littered with errors.
I don’t think it saved me any time but it did help remove my brain block by reorganizing my logic and forcing me to think through it from a different perspective. Then again, I could have accomplished the same thing by knocking off work for the day and going to the driving range.
- Comment on Storm Water Mitigation/Sump Pump 5 days ago:
Part of the challenge is that most of the rainwater doesn’t originate from the exterior in the area where I’m working.
When they poured the front porch (which is actually towards the rear of the house from the street since the house sits sideways on the lot), they didn’t backfill it correctly. As a result, there’s a nice little spot next to the foundation, under the front walkway, where water that gets through cracks in the walkway gets funneled downhill under the walkway and front porch, through the exterior wall, and into the corner where I’m digging.
There’s a small hole in the wall on the other side of this crawlspace (see photo). When I first discovered it I looked in and could see the front porch slab above it. It’s big enough inside that if the hole were bigger I could probably crawl into it.
Long term, the whole walkway needs to be ripped out, backfilled, and replaced. But that’s going to be $$$ so it will be a few years before I can do that.
- Comment on Storm Water Mitigation/Sump Pump 5 days ago:
That would be a huge job. I think it would probably pay off more if the ground was flat and standing water was a greater risk. Around here it’s very hilly and the soil is not that absorbent.
Water runs down hill. It’s just a question of making sure it runs away from the house which it now does 99% of the time.

- Comment on Getting Started with Proxmox 5 days ago:
In this situation it’s not necessarily that it’s the “right” or “wrong” device. The better question is, “does it meet your needs?” There are pros and cons to running each service in its own VM. One of the cons is the overhead consumed by the VM OS. Sometimes that’s a necessary sacrifice.
Some of the advantages of running a system like Proxmox are that it’s easily scalable and you’re not locked into specific hardware. If your current Beelink doesn’t prove to be enough, you can just add another one to the cluster or add a different host and Proxmox doesn’t care what it is.
TLDR: it’s adequate until it’s not. When it’s not, it’s an easy fix.

Then there’s all the expenses you didn’t know about before you bought the house. If you don’t have at least some DIY skills, you get to pay people a lot of money to fix things for you.
…BTW, the county just did a reassessment on your property and your property taxes have now doubled. In exchange, you get nothing. Congratulations.

Absolutely. As long as the boots are made properly and the sole isn’t just glued on. I think a lot of Danner and Redwing boots are resolable.
I’ve got a pair of Danner’s that I really like.

Timberland boots don’t retire. They constantly slack off at work and quit in a rage when confronted about it.
…also I’m pretty sure they were smoking crack while driving the service van
- Comment on Getting Started with Proxmox 6 days ago:
Yeah, with something that size you’re pretty much limited to containers.
- Comment on Getting Started with Proxmox 6 days ago:
I use one VM per service. WAN facing services, of which I only have a couple, are on a separate DMZ subnet and are firewalled off from the LAN.
It’s probably little overkill for a self hosted setup but I have enough server resources, experience, and paranoia to support it.

- Comment on UK government trial of Microsoft's M365 Copilot finds no clear productivity boost 1 week ago:
The sole reason I still pay the Microsoft tax is Excel. Other office suite components are generally good enough to fill in for their Microsoft counterparts. But, spreadsheet programs are one area where open source competitors need to get their shit together.
Most of them can do the basics but Excel is still in a class by itself for power users and advanced functionality. That’s a real bummer because I would love to stop paying the Microsoft tax.

- Comment on Exploratory Demolition & Planning Conversion of 3-Season Space into Year-round Space 1 week ago:
Sounds like you’ve got a good high level plan so far. A few things to consider:
1.) Are you wanting to maintain the same amount of natural light? High quality windows and doors will cost more up front but save you a bundle in energy costs down the road. If you’re going to replace those, nows the time to do it.
2.) What do you plan to do for HVAC? I had a similar room that I ducted to the main unit. It was adequate but if I had kept the house, I probably would have installed a mini-split instead.
