On macOS there is a known bug where some temp files are always created anew, not reused, which slows down compilation and wastes more space than other platforms.

Do you have details? I think I'm running into this.

Fixed on nightly.

Just by signalling interest by lingering and searching for the same flight multiple times a day I have bumped the price for the ticket that I was interested in.

Just a thought but I guess if the airline web services were overwhelmed with noise, they wouldn't be able to do such price adjustments reliably. The only risk is that this might bump the prices for everyone and it will turn out that consumers are not price sensitive enough to force airlines to not do this.

What is the benefit of using Apache over enjinx?

Depends on use-case. As a reverse proxy I might use Caddy, for no fuss https. I prefer Apache over nginx for modules that are not available in the later, or they are not for free.

The counterargument above is that people do not get promoted until they can’t do a good job at the new role - they only get the promotion once they’re good enough at their next position to get the promotion.

That's a good point. However, in my opinion, what you describe only happens sometimes; it's what companies claim they do, but very often they don't. I've seen too many times (embarrassingly, including myself on some occasions) people forcefully promoted to a role they are incompetent in. I've seen an extremely solid staff engineer get promoted to principal, riddled with bullshit responsibilities, given a bad performance review when he didn't meet them, and quitting as a result. It absolutely happens, and often.

Same as with programmers, you hire someone to be responsible, not to produce code or legal arguments.

Can I use my max subscription with Pi without Anthropic banning my account?

I used a claude subscription with omp for 6 months earlier this year, before switching to chatGPT which Im also using with it. Claude even has a splash screen on their login page saying logged in with oh-my-pi so I very much doubt they are trying to ban people for using other harnesses.

They definitely did ban people who used their auth token with other harnesses for a bit. Hence my hesitance.

In fact, if you ask Claude now, it will tell you not to try and log in to other harnesses as it violates the terms of service. One can only use API billing with other harnesses, not the Max subscription. Which of course is a load of toss.

Very high risk of a ban even though Anthropic is turning a blind eye to it right now.

I am looking forward to swapping the engine in my MX5, if I ever manage to kill it.

Yes.

No such thing as deleting secrets. You decommission them and replace them. Deleting them off disk is impractical to do, at least sufficiently.
