I have never sent anything by post in my life. I don’t even know how to send a letter 😅

I remember Internet forums were a thing a long time ago. I know some are still alive and well but I don’t hear about them as much anymore

Why do you ask about that specific show?

It works short term. If you have a deadline tomorrow by all means.

Long term you need to be aware of not just the code but the theory behind the code. You can make it work if you’re promoting what you need and read the result, understand it and test it but if we pure vibe coding is probably too much. How are you gonna solve problems when you don’t fully understand how things work?

Another thing, a lot of AI generated code solves the problem in the most obvious often bad way. For example I asked the AI for help with an ORM limitation I was running into and so many times the code it suggested was just query the db, then filter in code afterwards

There was this company selling USB sticks from AliExpress but rebranded as “5G bio shield”. It’s supposed to protect you from 5G waves. They said it had a nano layer quantum holographic catalyzer technology… whatever that means.

Heard about it here

This is not, the greatest comment in the world. No, this is just a tribute…

I have a bad habit of always having some endless shuffling YouTube playlists on in my headphones. Can’t sleep without it, can’t walk outside without it. Can’t do the dishes without it.

Sudan. We call it سلطة أسود Salatat Aswad. Aswad means black but we call eggplants that.

I had eggplant salad which is a traditional thing. Confusing name cause it’s more like a spread. You slice and fry eggplants until golden brown. Then into the food processor along with 1 clove of garlic, 1 tomato, salt, lemon and 1 spoon of peanut butter.

Arabic speaker here. The letters are disjointed and backwards. I don’t think it’s gibberish but there are some weird things. I’m guessing mistranslation. Lemme try to read it starting from top left.

الدم على برج الساعة مخصص لكل كاهن أو حاخام أو صوفي أو راهبة أ أو شامان أو ساحر أو باحث روحي أو ساحر على غرار نفسه شعر بالإلاه واستخدم معرفته من أجل الخير. إلى كل عالم أو مهندس التي وجدت المعجزة في معادلة أو نظرية. إلى كل فنان رأى الجمال الرائع للعالم كما هو حقاً من خلال مواهبه الطبيعية أو عبر مادة كيميائية أو كتاب. إلى كل شخص لديه لمسة سحر في نفوسهم، ومن يدري أن اللعب والفرح والحب أهم من الكلمات والموز

When I was a kid my oldest brother was a giant, and he’s still super tall in my mind. So imagine my shock when I found out I was now taller than him. I still can’t believe it.

I’ve never played it but Seaman lol. That AVGN video was hilarious

Ohh that’s where everyone went! Hellooo! I was wondering why I wasn’t seeing any posts.

Anyway my week is ok. I had one coffee at noon and somehow couldn’t sleep and messed up my sleep for 3 days. Guess I’m not good with caffeine

Maybe you need an accountability buddy, a fellow learner. Well idk I’ve never tried it but just a thought.

Diarrhoea Is A Really Runny Heap (Of) Endless Amounts

I finished my second novel. The first one took 2 months. This one 1 month. I’m starting the third now.

Thanks :D

I’m better now yeah.

Well mine hasn’t started yet so I can only speak about what I read.

A volunteer homestay is an agreement whereby a guest stays with a host in exchange for work. The guest gets a place to sleep, usually they eat with the host and they sometimes get some small pocket money. In exchange, the guest works for 3-5 hours a day helping the host out with whatever they need. This can be cleaning the house, cooking, gardening, farming, taking care of the animals, babysitting or petsitting. It all depends on what they agree to beforehand.

This is most popular among tourists who want a cheap stay on their vacation, but there are other reasons too including language learning.

You find homestays on platforms like Workaway, Worldpackers, or WWOOF(organic farm stays only). They are paid platforms.

From what I’ve read online in past experiences, it’s hit and miss and depends a lot on the host. Some people say they had an amazing experience, it changed their life, they made lifelong friends, and learned a lot about the work and learned the language. Others had a very bad experience, their host didn’t provide necessities and expected them to work more than 5 hours etc. I recommend you contact past guests of a particular host, even if their review is positive they will be more candid in private and you can ask specific questions.

Remember you can leave whenever you want. There is no signed contract or obligation. And you should not let yourself be taken advantage of. If a stay is bad, leave early. Worst thing that can happen is you get a bad review.

I took a week off because I was sick. Feeling rusty
