I think preventative medicine is where it would shine the most. There's so much data that we can capture with little additional cost. It just wouldn't be data that a human can reasonably make use of.

The problem is mainly who we can trust with this data.

Progress bars often come with text that tells you what it's doing. In recent years, it seems that a lot of them stopped actually telling you what they're doing and instead give you a silly unrelated message (e.g. Panoramax would give me things like "Calculating Cornish sunshine", "Measuring the high tides", "Brewing tea", etc). Where/how did this trend start?

Edit: Thanks for all the responses! It looks like this is much older than I originally thought. I played SimCity 2000 as a kid, but at that age, "reticulating splines" just sounded like normal computer jargon to me.

I just did pizza today too! I didn't think to take a photo though, so here's what's left after everyone's had their fill.

Part of what we look for in creative writing (and art in general) is humans connection. Just like how a cis male writer will never adequately replace women in writing about the female experience, machines can never replace humans in writing about the human experience. They may one day experience the world in all its richness, but what they experience will be a robot experience, not that of a human, so what they write about will also be a robot's experience.

  • 420g beans (dry weight). I used chickpeas, black beans, and red kidney beans.
  • 42g red onion (half of a small one)
  • 368g cucumber (one large cucumber, de-seeded)
  • 119g avocado (two small ones)
  • Some parsley
  • Vinaigrette: 60g red wine vinegar, 60g extra virgin olive oil, 19g dijon mustard, 32g honey, salt, black pepper, dry dill.

It wasn't enough avocado, but that's all I had on hand. I'd double it next time if possible.

Bean salad (media.piefed.ca)
 

2400 Calories, 96g of protein.

Cost about $3.50 without the vinaigrette. The cucumber and avocado accounted for most of that cost.

It's always good practice to back up your data before doing an upgrade. But in case you need it, you can certainly do a minor version update through compose. If you already have that set up, it'll probably be the easier route.

Your compose file should have a line that looks like this:

image: jellyfin/jellyfin  

possibly with a version number. You can specify which version you want by changing that line. For example:

image: jellyfin/jellyfin:10.10.7  

You can check which versions are available here.

I've sort of always known. What I didn't know was how so many (all?) of my problems can be attributed to autism in some way. For the longest time, I thought it was just responsible for my difficulties in socializing.

Was this meant for a different thread?

I'm just playing around with Copier for now. An arbitrary choice since I have nothing to go on and it seems popular enough. It'll probably be a while before I develop my own opinions on it.

I agree with existing templates having too much boilerplate. I'm basically also just copying and modifying my previous projects, but automated with Copier so that I don't have to search and replace all the project/module names. For this particular task, I have no complaints so far.

 

I've noticed that a lot of my projects follow the same basic architecture and I often like to write some simple tools for myself where it takes much longer to set up the project than it does to write the domain specific code. So I've been looking into scaffolding tools to help with this. I'm aware of Cookiecutter and Copier. Are there others? How do they compare? What are your preferences and why?
