Not really using VS Code terminal anymore, just Ubuntu terminal but the biggest problem I have is that at some point Claude just eats up all memory and session crashes. I know it's not really Claude's fault but damn it's annoying.

its not a bad idea to use one of the GPU Terminals on linux just for claude code, it works out a bit better

I recommend MobX as a solution for state management


You did. By being born in a nation and getting automatic citizenship. If you don't like it, you can leave


Leave the planet? On Santa's reindeer sleigh?

It has nothing to do with consent. As soon as you are born Jus soli comes into play. You are given citizenship and you are now subject to the laws.


Ok but the parent commentator invoked a contract. If there is no consent there is no contract. Simply stating that one is bound by laws isn't a justification, it's just an observation.


Wikipedia says Russia spent 100 billion in 2023, so increase of 100 billion should be more than that don't you think? Are you misinformed or deliberately lying?


You have to adjust figures for PPP, or Purchasing Power Parity, due to exchange rate differences. In 2024, Russia's PPP adjusted military spend was somewhere between $300B and $400B [1][2]. Their technology is also vastly superior to Germany's and they have a much larger personnel. It doesn't matter how much you spend if you don't get your money's worth.

The 100B euro investment was also a temporary one-off budget allocation that had been distributed over the past 2 years and to little effect: https://www.grosswald.org/eu100-billion-later-fixing-the-bun...

You assume that is all about hard work, self control and iron will. I can assure you that it is not, in many cases. Two days after the first shot I realized that if this is how people feel normally two things are crystal clear. One, obesity can be clearly an illness, or medical condition, that can not be cured by willpower alone. Two, if something is easy as drinking a glass of water for you, you can be a real dick about it without even realizing it if you have no idea how others can experience it


I realized after my first increase from the starting dosage that the feeling I used to call "full" was what most people call "not too hungry", and I'd been genuinely satiated 4 or 5 times in the past decade at best.


For some it's not as simple as calories in / calories out.

I stopped taking tirzepatide in September after losing 60lbs. Except for a blip at Christmas I am eating the same things and same amounts that I was during the weight loss with glp1 and I am steadily putting on weight, there is definitely something else going on and yet for the 20+ previous years where I've struggled to lose weight I've been told that I'm just not counting calories right.

As you said the first time I felt really full was on these drugs, and the lack of food noise - which is slowly returning but not as quickly as I thought - was wonderous.


On the one hand, you probably aren't counting calories right.

On the other hand, studies have shown that almost nobody can count calories right, so it's probably useless to try and rely on outside of basic order-of-magnitude kind of things.


Pill version has been out for some time and personally I'd prefer the jab over pill because pill needs to be taken to empty stomach and you can't eat it drink for half an hour after it, every day. Jab on the other hand, takes a few minutes, doesn't even sting and you need to do it only once a week.


The pill isn’t great because you need to wait an _entire_ 30 minutes before consuming anything?

Knowing your user is important, I guess.


Well, if routines are easy for you I guess it's not a big deal. If your days are irregular and you often need to figure out when is a good time to take the pill, then it's an additional hassle you can avoid.

Or you can just ignore the instructions and take it whenever but if we go down that road next you know we'll be swimming before thirty minutes has passed after a meal.


This is tangential but I liked your comment. Isn’t it a total fallacy you’re supposed to wait after a meal to swim?


Interesting. I have a mild phobia of needles and was perhaps projecting a bit when I suggested everyone would rather take the pill :)


I faint with needles, so I'm with you on that


Few things are as permanent as a temporary fix that works


If his sauna is the one in the picture, it has a flaw. Benches are placed too low. Your feet should be approximately at the level of the top of the stones. The sauna looks similar to a barrel sauna and they often are too low due to curvature to allow placing benches high enough


Who's we?


One company I worked for enforced vacations. If someone from work absolutely had to call you on your vacation day, ask a question or password, anything, you'd get a do-over for your day. No one ever called anyone on vacation without a damn good reason. Checking and answering emails on vacation was discouraged as well


this is actually required in some finance-centered fields in the US, because historically many frauds/ponzis/etc have fallen apart when their key players happened to be out-of-office or incommunicado for a few weeks, and a fresh set of eyes got to look at the books. "wait, that doesn't look right... hmmm..."

> Vacation Policies

> Banks should have a policy that requires all officers and employees to be absent from their duties for an uninterrupted period of not less than two consecutive weeks. Absence can be in the form of vacation, rotation of duties, or a combination of both activities. Such policies are highly effective in preventing embezzlements, which usually require a perpetrator’s ongoing presence to manipulate records, respond to inquiries, and otherwise prevent detection. The benefits of such policies are substantially, if not totally, eroded if the duties normally performed by an individual are not assumed by someone else.

> Where a bank’s policies do not conform to the two-week recommended absence, examiners should discuss the benefits of this control with senior management and the board of directors and encourage them to annually review and approve the bank’s actual policy and any exceptions. In cases where a two-week absent-from-duty policy is not in place, the institution should establish appropriate compensating controls that are strictly enforced. Any significant deficiencies in an institution's vacation policy or compensating controls should be discussed in the ROE and reflected in the Management component of the Uniform Financial Institutions Rating System (UFIRS). Note: Management should consider suspending or restricting an individual’s normal IT access rights during periods of prolonged absence, especially for employees with remote or high-level access rights. At a minimum, management should consider monitoring and reporting remote access during periods of prolonged absence.
