  • So I know when I am makiing stir fries if I want lots of sauce I either add lots of different ingredients to build flavors. For example last night I had a sauce with Gochujang, Soy Sauce, Black Vinegar, Roasted sesame seeds oil, chili oil, chili garlic sauce. Each of which was in a smaller quantity but created a spicy and umami flavor that overall covered anything. So try to make multiple flavors together (which is traditional any way). I do love strong flavors so that might not work for you. If that doesn’t work the water + corn starch slurry is a good method to make a sauce thick without adding much flavor.

    Tomatoes are the base for most mexican style sauces so add more tomatoes. You can make your own or just use the most mild salsa you can find as a base.







  • I am a data scientist and we use databricks which has copilot (I think) installed by default. So with this we have an autocomplete which I use the most because it can do some of the tedious steps for an analysis if I write good comments which I do anyhow. This is around 50% accurate with it being the most accurate for simple mindless things or getting the name of things correct.

    There is code generating block tool that I never use. There is also a something that troubleshoots and diagnosis any error. Those are mostly useless but has been good to finding missing commas and other simple things. Their suggestions sometimes are terrible enough that I mostly ignore this.

    We have a Copilot bot as part of our Github (I don’t know is this standard now?) that I actually enjoy and has uses. It writes up great summarizes of what code was commited which has a great format and seems almost 100% accurate for me. Most importantly it has a great spellchecker as part of their suggestions. I am a terrible speller and never double check names so it can fix them both in the notes and in my code (It fixes it everywhere in the code which is nice). The rest of the suggestions are okay. There are some that are useful but some that are way off or overengineered for what I am doing. This I like because it just comes in at the end of my process and I can choose to accept or deny.



  • Also to note here. The credits used to be at the start of a film. Since it was at the beginning there were typically less people credited becaue there was less time. (You obviously didn’t want to make people wait too long to see the film but long enough they could get into the theater with their snacks). Once it moved to the end, there was no reason to not include everyone.

    This is also why we got the post credit teaser or scene which was a directors way to force the audience to see the whole credits






  • I always wondered how they got those original productivity claims. I assume they are counting everytime a programmer uses a AI suggestion. Seems like the way to get the highest markable number for a sales team. I know that when I use those suggestions occasionally they will be 100% correct and I won’t have to make any changes. More often than not it starts correct and then when it fills it adds things I don’t need or is wrong or isn’t fitting how I like to write my code. Then I have to delete and recreate it.

    The most annoying is when I think I am tabbing for autocomplete and then it just adds more code that I don’t need
