> This is also the basis for exercise - your muscles and tendons are damaged when you work out, but they get rebuilt stronger

This is an outdated view, evidence shows muscle/tendon growth/adaptation occurs primarily via mechanical tension and metabolic stress, with damage playing a minimal or even counterproductive role. hypertrophy happens despite it, not because of it.

That’s interesting, thanks for the link.

Nevertheless, exercise turns on repair pathways in multiple tissue types.

clearly the error is in the number, most likely the actual value is 5.0 instead of 50.0 which matches the bar height and also the other single digit GPT-5 results for metrics on the same chart


What a train wreck, there are thousand more apps in store that do exactly this because its the easiest way to use openAI without having to host your own backend/proxy.

I have spend quite some time protecting my apps from this scenario and found a couple of open source projects that do a good job as proxys (no affiliation I just used them in the past):

- https://github.com/BerriAI/litellm - https://github.com/KenyonY/openai-forward/tree/main

but they still lack other abuse protection mechanism like rate limitting, device attestation etc. so I started building my own open source SDK - https://github.com/brahyam/Gateway


Cursor. Good price, the predictive next edit is great, good enough with big code bases and with the auto mode i dont even spend all my prem requests.

I've tried VScode with copilot a couple of times and its frustrating, you have to point out individual files for edits but project wide requests are a pain.

My only pain is the workflow for developing mobile apps where I have to switch back and forth between Android Studio and Xcode as vscode extensions for mobile are not so good


The amount of time it would take to write the formal spec for the code I need is more than it would take to generate the code so doesn't sound like something that will go mainstream. Except for those industries where formal code specs are already in place.


Yes, this test-driven approach will likely increase generation time upfront. However, the payoff is more reliable code being generated. This will lead to less debugging and fewer reprompts overall, which saves time in the long run.

Also agree on the specification formality. Even a less formal spec provides a clearer boundary for the LLM during code generation, which should improve code generation results.


Could you share any good resources for someone to start brewing it? Or any tips?


Make sweet tea, add SCOBY, wait. It really is that simple.

This is the basic recipe I use: https://www.reddit.com/r/kombucha/wiki/how_to_start#wiki_mas...

For more information, The Big Book of Kombucha will have everything you need and more.

Have fun! :)

(Just passing by; I have no personal interest in kombucha, was simply unaware of the term.)


Now, how about limiting the fermentation after bottling? I have a couple bottles still in the fridge, that I now call "kombucha grenades." I thought I could open the last one I tried safely, in the sink, and it basically hosed the kitchen and myself. The last few will be outside-only endeavours, wearing a garbage bag like a Gallagher audience member. (Tastes good, at least the half a bottle that is still in the bottle.)


Keep them in the fridge for longer, the carbonation will go down over time.

Also, try placing the bottle in a container or bowl, then hold another (slightly narrower container) over the top of the bottle. You should be able to catch all of the liquid in the bowl to pour into a glass.

If you added a bunch of sugar and/or flavoring into the secondary fermentation / bottles, you added too much. If you didn't add anything, then you didn't let the primary fermentation go long enough.


Oh, guessing the latter, thanks! I hadn't added anything for a secondary or bottling stage. I am used to regular beer brewing, I think that runs out of steam sooner. Will have to try the two-bowl method.


If you don't mind sharing. What's the position title that you got/were searching for?.

I live in Berlin and I've never seen even a 6 figure senior software engineer position.


I personally know people have made 6 figures in non-senior positions in Berlin working for German subsidiaries of multi-national companies, just "Software Development Engineer". I don't know if that happens through job listing offering 6 figure salaries or entering at a lower salary and getting raises.


Wow! I was really into it right until the end. What an amazing imagination. Thanks for putting that together and sharing your creativity.


I believe this incident has been happening for more than 30 mins. I've had problems with gradle pipelines failing without reason for at least the last 6 hours


As a Venezuelan and victim of Maduro's constant anti imperialist propaganda I strongly believe the operation gedeon is just a fake. If the US would like to remove Maduro from power I don't think they would send 30 poorly trained, barely equipped men, from which the grand majority didn't even have military experience to disembark in one of the most popular coasts of Venezuela just a few kilometers from a navy base.
