My Samsung frame does that too, some TVs ignore the off CEC command. It might be a setting you can control on the tv. Last time I checked the frame did not have that option.

I avoided Blazor, despite multiple people on my teams pushing for it. It always felt like it fit in the same space as web forms and silverlight. A product created to fill a gap of developers that wrote desktop apps and don't want to learn how to write front end code for the web. Plus it binds you to the product lifecycle of a .net side project that likely will be abandoned.

While Blazor has some cool stuff built in, the cool stuff never felt worth the risk of building a product around it.

Honestly, I was wishing that Blazor was in the same space as web forms.

There is a market for front-end development that isn't steeped in the hell of actual front-end development. Blazor is almost the right idea but I think this incarnation is a dead end. Somebody needs to gather up all the pieces and figure it out for real.

I think it’s less about managing the environmental impact of landfills and more about eventually the concentration of desirable materials in landfills may end up higher than in known natural deposits. Or at least easier to refine and separate.

The models aren’t static, we have to build validation sets to measure model drift and modify our prompts to compensate.

Netflix is right in its prime right now, K-Pop Demon Hunters is a smash hit and probably the biggest cultural thing going on right now, it has like 4 songs from it in the top 10. Wednesday is coming back this weekfor the end of season 2. Stranger Things is wrapping up in November,

Odd to hear for me. Netflix Australia has been in steep decline for years now. The only shows I recognise by title or actors in the poster are 15+ years old, or are adorned with 'Leaving Soon'. Everything of value has been poached by a competitor.

It's the same situation in Italy. Netflix doesn't have any interesting content anymore, only their own originals.

Any other examples? None of those scream prime to me - however I haven't heard of kpop demon hunters

NPR had 3 stories last week in their NPR News Now Podcast about K-Pop Demon Hunters. Like I said it has 4 songs on the Billboard Hot 100 all in the top 10. It's the best performing movie ever on Netflix with over 236 million streams. It was so successful they actually did a run of showings on over 1,700 screens topping the box office charts for that week and grossing over 18 million in a weekend.

I'm not sure what else it would need to do besides dominate the music, box office, and streaming charts to be considered a success. It was widely covered in the news media as well. I predict that Rumi is going to be maybe the most popular costume with kids this year. My daughter and all her friends all claim they're going to be Rumi for halloween.

Stranger Things was huge, and maybe it's trailed off over the years. It never was quite as big as say Game of Thrones, but it was probably at least same tier as a Ted Lasso.

Wednesday is big as well, but hasn't dominated the work conversations as much as other shows, but I've heard it routinely mentioned in media. Wednesday Addams is also predicted as a top costume this halloween. The Wednesday dance was definitely a huge cultural meme last season.

But I guess to your point, there isn't something as big as a Game of Thrones out there right now on Netflix. But they have hit a pretty hot streak recently.

Maybe it's the marketing? It's on the main home page every time I open it.

Copilot replacing intellisense is a huge shame. Why get actual auto complete when you can get completely hallucinated methods and properties instead.

Does it actually replace it? I can still get intellisense style suggestions on my ides (various jetbrains and visual studio) and it's still just as useful (what can this object do I wonder...)

No it does not replace it. I still get intellisense in VS Code. GP is misinformed

The spec from Apple could be clearer, you have to read the tea leaves and both sides have enough ammo to argue for their interpretation. But as someone who doesn’t care either way where these are stored I think that makes me a bit more objective than people who strongly have an opinion that they are looking to justify.

I think the Application support people have a stronger argument. Nowhere does it say store it in ~/.config for CLI tools. Also it seems weird to store user preferences in two different locations based on if it’s a CLI app or a GUI app. What if you have both interfaces?

I’m not saying that Application Support is the better solution, and if people feel that there should be a distinction between CLI apps and GUI apps they should push for Apple to update their standards. Repeatedly harassing an open source maintainer to relitigate an issue they’ve already decided on is counter productive and a waste of the maintainer’s time. I would be frustrated if I was him as well.

We are going the opposite way, putting instructions in md files and putting instructions in the Claude.md file when it should read those instructions.

While I prefer Cline/Roo at work where I have multiple API plans for AI models, for personal I have Claude Pro and that really only works with Claude code. The benefit is that I can use it on a $20 a month plan.

Roo can use Claude Code as a provider.

I mostly use Claude Code with a Max plan via Roo. I have the option of sending prompts to OpenRouter if I've hit usage limits or if I want to try a particular task with a different model (e.g., I'll sometimes flip to Gemini Pro if a particular task could benefit its large context windows).

The service itself is a several week endeavor to do properly, you have to understand the impact of all the pushed passes on the QR code generator, put together telemetry, dashboards, and alerting for the new service. Depending on their infrastructure that could be difficult to spin up. You have to do a design and review with the team so this isn’t just understood by one person and can be supported by a team. Documentation, ADRs, etc. setting up processes for managing the cert chain over the long term. And you probably want to keep parity between the iOS and android apps, so you need to understand that work.

Then yeah, it lowers engagement with the app, which is probably tied to someone’s bonus.

A lot of those pain points are involved by virtue of being the original developer. Generating a QR code every single minute for every single user can indeed easily lead to issues, but that's much less of an issue when you're able to change the QR code validity to, say, a week.

If you use online validation you can even dynamically rotate them whenever it suits you - either to adjust server load, or as some kind of "every Nth check-in" scheme. Heck, with online validation it doesn't even matter if the rotation service goes offline for a while!

Or just generate a fixed QR code which never changes. You know, like the 8-digit pin the QR code is the alternative for.
