I used to end the questions with "It's not a duplicate of AAA because BBB is different. It's also not a duplicate of CCC because DDD". It DID force you to check for already answered questions, but the automated hints while you typed was often good enough to spot duplicates.

In the end, imagine wasting half an hour to post a four-lines issue... No thanks.

State of affairs [1]:

> My whole project and career depended on the 3.1 pro workflow. Please, bring it back

[1] https://discuss.ai.google.dev/t/please-bring-gemini-3-1-pro-...

> The problem is that for my particular use case — a headless, always-on Mac Mini that I primarily access from other computers and my phone through the ChatGPT and Claude apps — macOS is incredibly hostile

> As noted by the NCSC, the vulnerability is being exploited when port 5900 is exposed to the Internet. When screen sharing is turned on, the macOS firewall opens the port. Routers and dedicated firewalls generally block the port unless configured to override that setting.

> Obviously I should have — and will be — using a VPN going forward (the foundation of my entire approach to security is Tailscale); what I will note, however, is that TCC basically leaves me no choice but to have screen sharing enabled if I want to actually use my Mac Mini in the way I want to use it. I use screen-sharing constantly — including from my phone — and almost every time it’s to click “OK” on a stupid prompt that I’ve long since stopped taking seriously.

I work on a project related to it and was absolutely surprised at how the company gave instructions to the clients to help them fix their machines (stuff I wouldn't be able to do myself).

Having a non-working machine can mean big $$ lost everyday.

Code is beauty

Creativity is king

I stopped when the new linter told me GET shouldn't have bodies, but I still have some of them in my code.

  def calc_gravity(mass_1: float, mass_2: float, radius: float) -> float:
      G = 6.67408e-11
      return G * mass_1 * mass_2 / radius**2

  earth_mass = 5.972e24
  earth_radius = 6.371e6
  earth_g = calc_gravity(1.0, earth_mass, earth_radius)
  print(f"earth: {earth_g:.2f} m/s^2")

  moon_mass = 7.34767309e22
  moon_radius = 1737.4e3
  moon_g = calc_gravity(1.0, moon_mass, moon_radius)
  print(f"moon: {moon_g:.2f} m/s^2")

  print(f"earth/moon proportion: {(earth_g / moon_g):.2f}")

  earth: 9.82 m/s^2
  moon: 1.62 m/s^2
  earth/moon proportion: 6.04

Music piracy also changed the course of my life, thanks to a DVD full of music I discovered my passion for metal, picked up the electric guitar, met a lot of friends, partners and had a lot of fun (I could say it was the best time of my life, but that was just because I was younger and without worries ;)

I also had no money to spend on CDs, nowadays I'm often thinking about buying a blu-ray player to buy the albums and movies I love... but I don't want them to collect dust, so I'm waiting for an excuse...

I do have a Sony Walkman (the new one) with a nice collection of music, but with spotify (which I want to replace with Qobuz) it's not getting used. I'm also selfhosting NaviDrome.
