I just use the WorktreeCreate hook in Claude to copy over the .env file.

OLED sounds great, but I am worried about burn in. MacBook screens are a bit more static and on longer than iPads and iPhones.

Also, Rust's strong and strict type system keeps Claude honest. It seems as if the big LLM models have trained on a lot of poorly written TypeScript because they tend to use type assertions such as `as any` and eslint disable comments.

I had to add strict ESLint and TypeScript rules to keep guardrails on the coding agents.

I have found the iPhone Air much easier to hold than the iPhone 13 Pro it replaced because of how light it is, even though the iPhone Air has a bigger screen.

It shouldn't. The issue is that most developers would rather spin up another instance of their server than solve the performance issue in their code, so now it's a common belief that computers are really slow to serve content.

And we are talking about static content. You will be bottlenecked by bandwidth before you are ever bottlenecked by your laptop.

Saying parents should be doing their jobs will lose you votes, that's why. Anything that implies personal responsibility is political suicide.

I believe you can sell your USDT back to tether. Although I haven’t heard the same about other stablecoins.

The most traded cryptocurrency is USDT, a stablecoin. It has over double the daily trade volume that Bitcoin has, the second most traded cryptocurrency by volume. Stablecoins are a huge part of the cryptocurrency ecosystem.

It’s exactly because of having more valuable things to do that you should have typing just be a subconscious act instead of having to take your eyes off the monitor all the time.

It’s honestly not that much money. Paintings from artists who are not as famous as Bob Ross can go for thousands.

This is true. I don't meal prep myself since I am fortunate enough to be able to afford a meal delivery service where I can then just microwave my meals, but meal prepping can be done for about an hour a week, two hours at most if you want to get fancy.

No it doesn’t. Just eat half of what you order while eating out. Save the rest for later. Now you have two meals instead of one.

A huge part of eating healthy is eating less.

It takes the same amount of time to quit all sugary drinks and alcohol and only drink water for the rest of your life. It’s an extreme, but just doing that alone will save you a couple thousand calories a month.

Fast food doesn’t necessarily mean high calorie either. Almost all fast food places have meals for under 600 calories, yes even McDonald’s.

I am going to be blunt here. Why is everyone using time as an excuse? In fact, it should be easier to lose weight if you are truly busy, because the only thing that will make you lose weight is eating less.

This whole idea about exercising to lose weight is unhelpful when the truth is that no amount of exercise is going to compensate for eating more calories than you have to.

And yes, you will go to bed slightly hungry for weeks or even months if you want to lose a lot of weight.
