A room in most American homes which contains about 12" of dense clay and water, mixed to the consistency of a heavy paste. When you enter the house you remove all your clothes except for your shoes and slather the mud on yourself, whilst singing classic American show tunes at the top of your lungs to announce your presence. The host will unlock the door, spray you down with a fire hose and greet you with a hearty slap on your bare ass and a cigar.

It’s just an American thing, you dirty foreigners wouldn’t understand.

Static webpage generator like Hugo, probably.

Go listen to his recent podcast interview with Raheem Jeffries where he just let’s Jeffries gaslight him for an hour. It was embarrassing.

Just when you might think this was a virtue-signalling stunt, along comes Katy Perry to lend it legitimacy.

Way ahead of you.

I think the further you get out in to esoteric or new things, the less they have to draw on. I’ve had a bit of the same issue building Lora telemetry on ESP32 with specific radio modules because there might be a couple of realworld examples out there of using those libraries.

I knocked off an android app in Flutter/Dart/Supabase in about a week of evenings with Claude. I have never used Flutter before, but I know enough coding to fix things and give good instructions about what I want.

It would even debug my android test environment for me and wrote automated tests to debug the application, as well as spit out the compose files I needed to set up the Supabase docker container and SQL queries to prep the database and authentication backend.

That was using 3.5Sonnet, and from what I’ve seen of 3.7, it’s way better. I think it cost me about $20 in tokens. I’ve never used AI to code anything before, this was my first attempt. Pretty cool.

most backup providers encrypt data on their servers so you dont have to manage that I dont think.

That’s something you should manage yourself, so the provider isn’t the one with the keys, by encrypting the backup locally before sending it. Most solutions you mention let you do that.

Fuck, that made no sense to me until I saw this comment.

Pray I don’t alter it again.
