The chat history is the big one for me. It’s not even that it’s not persistent; I’d be fine if it just purged all messages after a set period. The problem is that it seems to selectively purge some messages but keep others. Makes me feel like I’m crazy when I go back and try to find something that I know I sent a while ago, but there’s just a gap.

These aren’t exactly exploration games, but they’re simple games that my toddler likes too:

• Animal Crossing is easily her favorite. She loves “helping” my wife pick outfits and fish.
• A Building Full of Cats is short, cheap, and cute. She likes making up stories about each apartment and cat. There’s also tons of similar games in different locations.
• Cats in Time has simple puzzles that she can do with a bit of help.
• Slime Rancher might be a good fit. It’s simple and cute with a focus on exploration.
• Dorf Romantik is a relaxing and cute game that’s a good introduction to resource management. She might not be good at the actual goal of the game, but she likes placing tiles.
• Subnautica in creative mode might be interesting for exploration, depending on how sensitive your kid is about some of the darker areas and creatures.

Especially with AI now becoming more mainstream and getting new developments every week or month. Didn’t check the right blog/newspost? The workflow you’re using is now outdated and slow.

This looks like the opposite of friendly to me. Is it supposed to be targeted towards cloud computing or web apps? I don’t really understand what its ideal use case is.

Every job will have some sort of crunch time. Even just staying in a programming position, the definition of “crunch time” will vary wildly. I’m lucky enough that “crunch time” just means that I set aside all my other tasks until I fix whatever is on fire, but I still get to go home on time unless I really want the overtime pay.

I don’t envy positions with forced 80-hour workweek crunch times. That’s a sign of bad management.

Because I am addicted to solving puzzles.

That makes sense. I really like that the documentation is right at the top; many times all I want to do is find the right page in the official docs. You might want to look at how results are prioritized though: right now when I search for something simple like “how to center a div”, that result from Mozilla’s docs is included but it’s hidden as the second or third result. I would expect the page that’s explicitly about centering a div to be the top result, followed by the docs page for the element itself and maybe pages for flex or grid or something. That’s a really simple example, so maybe it’s not the target of this project, but I would still hope that simple topics are covered just as well as complex ones.

EDIT: I was a bit mistaken: “how to center a div” does bring up the Mozilla documentation for centering an element, but “center a div” brings up a page about accessibility as the top result.

It’s a good start. I’m curious why you didn’t include a section for social media like StackOverflow or Reddit. If I go to Google with a question, it’s usually for an edge case not covered by the documentation. Maybe add them as a section at the bottom to indicate that they might be less relevant?

Also, this might just be a web developer thing, but why include blogs? Almost all coding blogs I’ve seen are SEO cancer that just copy from the documentation or each other. Are there actually useful blogs out there that I’ve just been missing?

Looks like this may be a known issue for some users.

Bluey.

It wasn’t that hard if you kept feeding it quarters. It took a lot of trial and error, but having infinite lives means it was eventually beatable.

Tuition is $40,000 a year. Price said about 75% of their students are on some form of financial aid.

How large is the Unification Church? I thought they were a pretty big organization.

Also, this paragraph is hilarious:

The Unification Church, meanwhile, has claimed that engaging in activities that violate Japan’s civil law should not be considered grounds for ordering its dissolution and that the government’s questioning of the group is illegal.

I’ve thought about giving away my rulebooks many times. I have a small collection that I will realistically never use, and that takes up a significant amount of space that we could use for things we actually need. As sad as it is, sometimes you have to let go of old memories to make room for new ones.

I’m not looking forward to this eventual conversation.

“Wow, there’s a lot of rulebooks here! Did you play all of these games?”

“No, just D&D.”

Writing is not hardware-intensive; a Chromebook would be much cheaper if that’s all she does. What else will she use this laptop for that makes you want a MacBook?

I wouldn’t know the feeling. I only paint helmeted minis for a reason.

It’s funny you would reply about that: I actually did escalate it again and I’m working on getting a process implemented. It’s like pulling teeth, but I’m determined to get this fixed. Luckily my manager is finally with me on this, so I’m making some real progress for once.

I’ve thought about it many times but can’t find a good way to implement it. I don’t have access to the company’s GitHub or any shareable network locations. Don’t want to upload to my personal GitHub either since there is proprietary information in some of them. Right now I have them shared in a OneNote notebook that I manually update as I revise the scripts.
