Anecdotal evidence. But since I started doing sauna regularly (once a week) I started to get sick less. I’m talking colds or flues. And the ones I did catch were much milder. Even with sick family members around I’m not catching it as often.

It’s also great for certain mental health issues: spending time naked with a mixed crowd (yes mixed female and male) can be eye opening.

Saunas are a great leveller between humans all living the same experience yet feeling alone in doing so.

For the record, "mixed crowd" is for people who already know each other or maybe are at some kind of (countryside?) event. Public facilities are segregated by sex, and most private functions with a single sauna will organise separate sessions.

Families will typically sauna all together, altho this system can break down when kids hit puberty.

I heard that we often get cold/flu/sore throat when we get too cold outside, because the inside of our orifices is kept at a certain temperature to kill those bacteria/viruses. When we get too cold, we are unable to kill them fast enough, and get overrun. Staying in 70-100°C air for prolonged time must also heatshock those parts of our bodies, so I guess we kinda sterilize it that way.

At least my 2c why I think its helping

Also anecdotal evidence, I haven't been sick this whole past 12 months. Any change I made in the past 12 I could've contributed to this. Nothing particular comes to mind but there were lots of changes (e.g. work, home, diet). That's the issue.

You'd have to stop sauna for a while and see if it reverses to strengthen the anecdotal case I guess.

Fastmail is Australian

I try to leave as many crumbs as I can in the PR description which becomes the commit message. I link issues, slack threads, articles, docs. Of course also explain the reasoning.

I use Promptfoo

Any takeaways? Has it been helpful? OpenAI just acquired them so it's probably useful but I was curious to hear more from people who've actually used it.

Yes, very useful. Can’t imagine managing a large interconnected prompt collection without it.

Orb is definitely the winner. It’s fast. It does the job well. Never had an issue with it in two years.

Yeah no chance. Quite the opposite. This framework makes the process more robust. AI is just an accelerator of what is. I work at a company without mature SDLC process and it’s chaotic and leads to sub standard outcomes. We are actually looking to adopt this SDLC process soon because of it.

My mental model on LLMs and agents is that they are force multipliers.

Haha I did something similar to my teebage neighbour and his Bluetooth boombox that he’d blast at midnight when his parents were away. I’d connect to his device and disconnect immediately. He also learned to turn it down after that. That was our communication channel. Every time it was too loud I’d connect and disconnect. Immediately after he’d reduce the volume to something reasonable.

Good luck rebuilding AWS. It’s a massive undertaking if you want feature parity.

Sure, but how many people/companies are perfectly served by serverless functions + queues + gateway + database + file service? I'd guess >90%. How much of that remaining 10% can be adequately patched by lauching virtual servers?

Scaleway and OVHCloud both provide all of that. The problem is more about marketing and a modern variant of the good old "nobody got fired for buying IBM".

How about CloudFormation? CloudTrail? IAM? SSO?

If you want to make real money, you’ll need an endless amount of EE features, without which no E will commit.

You can’t survive on a few consumer features.

There was already a “standard” published by Anthropic. How is this different?

In hindsight the title here is weird. It's meant to refer to the existing standard, but doesn't read that way.

I think this is the main issue. When I would get into flickering mode, it appeared that the entire TUI was re-rendering on every key press. I don’t know if it’s maybe just the limitation of Ink or even terminals.

Well vim doesn’t flicker so it’s definitely not a limitation of terminals, but you’re probably right about the Ink/React stack.

So why are you stuck with ink/react stack?

I don’t use React/Ink for anything, what do you mean?
