Run this on your Watch Later page in your console:

let x = $x;

let buttons = $$('div#contents div#contents div#menu button');

let delay = 1000;

for (let i = 0; i < buttons.length; i++) {

  setTimeout(() => buttons[i].click(), 100+(i*delay));

  setTimeout(() => x("//span[contains(text(), 'Remove')]")[0].click(), 800+(i*delay));
};

...increase delay if needed.


Use an LLM like Llama2 to manage your personal sprints. Have one for 2-week sprints, daily standups, and of course epics.

Prompt it to help you develop a plan. I use ollama.ai to help me.

Example:

https://github.com/stephenwithav/Modelfiles/blob/master/busi...

edit: It doesn't provide perfect results, but it gives you a good start.


If your computer's strong enough, install several models with ollama. Learn to prompt, fine-tune them.

Erlang/OTP is great for distributed coding, but how well does Phoenix integrate with AWS/GCP?


ec2 is just vps. you can put whatever you want on it. my startup uses eks (aws) with some extra tuning. for one, you need to allocate one container per vps as the beam likes to grab all the cores. there's also the additional network configs to make sure the nodes can discover each other. swarm has tooling for this. I won't say its easy but its doable and pretty resilient once you have it up an running.


+1.

yasnippets is the best for emacs.


Siraj is getting bad press from this. It wasn't Siraj banning students, it was a TA who did the banning.

Props to Siraj for not throwing that person under the bus. (Yes, I'm a TA. No, it wasn't me.)


Can you please open-source this?


From the early '90s.

I miss the simplicity of a 320x200x256 screen. Want to access the pixel at (0, 0)? $A000:0000.

I miss FIDONet.

I miss the big GOPHER network.

I miss the the variety of monthly ANSi packs.

I miss ACiD.

I miss the wonder and amazement of the demo scene.

I miss the community feel.


While not exactly as it was of course, FTN-style networks including FidoNet are still going and active, Gopher is still a thing, ANSI packs are still being released very regularly (ACiD folks are mostly Blocktronics at this point), demo scenes are still active, so on.

Hop on a Telnet/SSH BBS and check it out!


Do you have a public playlist?


Digitally Imported is pretty great. I've subscribed for years alongside Spotify and prefer it for set and forget playback of a genre of electronic music. Spotify is for specific playback and discovery.

There may be a free trial, and I think there is a free tier with ads if you can tolerate them.


Use MyFitnessPal to track what you're eating and your goal weight. At the end of the day, it'll estimate your weight in 5 weeks if you ate like that every day for five weeks. (e.g., "If every day were like today... You'd weigh 158.9 lbs in 5 weeks")

It's a good incentive to avoid tempting, but unnecessary foods.
