  • That may improve things, but doesn’t the stock of the gun still have to be against the shoulder? That’s where most of the problems occur. My heart is wobbling my torso, not my hands or arms.

    I mean, I can keep my arms and hands totally still, but when I lean into the weapon, it’s my shouder that transmits my heartbeat’s wobbling of my torso into the weapon. Without stopping my heart entirely - something I hope you can understand that I am loathe to do - I don’t really see a solution.









  • My problem with hunting comes down to remaining motionless when taking the shot.

    I have gotten so in-tune with my body that, when at rest, my heart subtly wobbles my entire torso. This is to the point where I can calculate my own heart rate by just sitting still and feeling how my body moves/pulsates.

    So aiming becomes problematic when my sights start to undulate in tune with my heartbeat.

    I mean, I am usually a half-decent shot once I’ve gotten familiar with the firearm. I’m not going to be doing consistent bulls-eyes at 200m except as a complete fluke, but at the same time I am going to be putting a hole somewhere in the paper, usually within the circle.

    But that bouncing, it’s hella enraging when success depends on stability and not moving. And I’m not going to take that kind of a risk on a live animal. If I cannot be reasonably assured of a clean kill, I would rather be doing something else.

    the child unblocked them long enough to pimp slap them with a text

    That’s still no excuse for failing to use grammatically correct full sentences and employing vast herds of emoji whose subtext are confusing and tenuous at best.

    Like holy hell, that’s a WoT that is exhausting to look at, much less decipher.

    If you’re gonna pimp slap a conservative, most will need to be spoon-fed content at a 5th grade level or less, you’re not going to get through to them with the sophistication that typical mid-leftist content has. It’s just too advanced for them, even when broken down and written simply in short sentences.




  • no confidential client information is to be sent to any cloud AI service

    If the code has been crafted correctly, none should be.

    Client info should be 100% data, and remain 100% in production. If you have any dev-side data to test and debug with, it should be 100% procedurally-generated pseudo-data that only imitates client data in terms of gross patterns, and not specific points of data.

    Like customer names. Those names should be broadly representative of what is found in the regions the software operates in, in order to demonstrate acceptable data input validation and effective storage compatibility with those names. For example, you don’t want to be storing European names in a DB field that is not UTF-8 compliant, or validating those names by restricting characters to US-ASCII. But any one generated name that just so happens to match an IRL name should be a statistical occurance, and any extended data attached to that entry should (generally) not match any other IRL data for any IRL occurance of that name…


  • Why should I pay a subscription fee? The AI is not touching my code, not generating any of it. I use the free versions to ask questions or give it snippets as examples, and go from there.

    Sure, I’m beginning to bump into Claude’s free ceiling, but there are so many other options out there that I just partition my questions to the most appropriate model for that question.

    There may come a time when I actually sign up for a paid tier, but it hasn’t happened yet. Until then, I will continue to exploit the parasites that fund this largesse.

    And honestly, I won’t be upset if it all crashes and burns – it’s only a tool for me, not a crutch like with so many other devs as of late. Almost all of them will have regressed all the way back to junior-level skills if they had to hand-code all over again. It’s actually kind of sad to see such skills erosion and dumbing down that’s happening IRL.
