generate a story where there is not much of a story. What is unfortunate is this has gotten upvoted and is now part of the noise.

If you see a fraud and do nothing you are part of the fraud.

True, but with visual art there is what is correct and what looks correct. When things are moving and the area small no one is going to notice.

But now that is problem is solved a director will come along and say... I want a scene with a big glass of water and the camera will zoom in on it and will see the monster refracted through the glass.

Something, well may things, kill about Microsoft. The Office suite have a wonderful API and loading a JS app with an an interface in the apps works great.

We took an Elm app from our web app and put into Excel to control downloading reports. Works great.

Except you have to side load this and that is a pain - or you have to go through the MS App Store, which is a whole other headache.

If anyone has any advice on making it easy for customers to install Office apps please let me know.

Lewes Delaware has the Cannonball house which was struck in the 1812 bombardment. Delightful town and beach, worth a visit.

I switched back to 4.5 Sonnet or Opus yesterday since 4.6 was so slow and often “over thinking” or “over analyzing” the problem space. Tasks which accurately took under an minute in Sonnet 4.5 were still running after 5 minutes in 4.6 (yeah I had them race for a few tasks)

Someone of this could be system overload I suppose.

Remember having to write detailed specs before coding? Then folks realized it was faster and easier to skip the specs and write the code? So now are we back to where we were?

One of the problems with writing detailed specs is it means you understand the problem, but often the problem is not understand - but you learn to understand it through coding and testing.

So where are we now?

Look up Sean Bell - not a stop a frisk, just an open fire.

Once, my wife and I were stopped, but not frisked, and cited for riding bikes, on a sidewalk at 2AM on a stretch of Atlantic Ave that would kill you to ride on. It made no sense, until I found out that my neighbor and his friend had been murdered at a street party. There was a drag net out trying to find the killer and they stopped anyone for anything.

A tough city.
