I doubt AI hallucinations had anything to do with it

Pretty much my experience too. Using Sol in VSCode I just give it the problem and let it go. I don’t even look at or think about context. Works well for me.

How has it been trashed? Does the Bun software not work anymore?

Passive house thinking comes from an era of peak oil concerns, no solar, and no heat pumps. None of those conditions holds anymore. Further, passive houses are notorious for overheating and because they’re so airtight they require expensive mechanical ventilation and make-up air systems unless you want indoor air pollution problems.

People building houses today are much better served by spending their money on solar + battery + heat pumps than going passive.

Maybe dictation is the way to go? It’s a quick way to interact with agents and works really well.

It’s a long way short of evidence, though. It might be right, but it might just be food for confirmation bias, too.

To the level of a clinical diagnosis, yeah it seems quite likely to me that most people can’t discern autistic spectrum behaviour in their peers. I bet most people couldn't even accurately say what those behaviours would be.

If you have a link to your project that you could share I'd be interested in following it - this sounds like something I might want to use one day.

You said

> As it stands, any private transaction on the Zcash chain stands out like a sore thumb

Is that actually still the case or has the change to defaults made anonymity more common?

Why would a manager who’s able to claim the credit of their reports in order to advance their own career then PIP the best ones? Wouldn’t they keep them around to keep claiming credit from?

I’m not doubting your story (I’ve never worked in India) I just don’t understand the incentive to fire a good worker in this scenario.

Horse racing didn’t go away and there are more people who race horses professionally than who race cars.

> The ugly glass UX, the weird floating controls, the always on display, blah blah

I'm on the "some like it" boat, to my surprise. I think the glass effect is eye-catching in a good way, and is much-less of a readability issue than I had expected. I often notice how cool it looks over my rotating background photos. I also love the always-on display because I don't have a watch.
