For the prompting to avoid "AI look and feel", I was just insistent and turned down a lot of initial ideas, guiding Claude towards something that I was OK with.
Similarly, Claude helps me with messaging here and there, but never gets it quite right: I always use the generated prose as a guide for me to remember certain points, and end up rewriting 80% of it to be "in my voice". Claude's great, but I never recognize myself in the prose it writes.
Thanks for the math suggestion: yes it's more optimal to do it that way indeed.
My wife & I have a housekeeper who works flexible days and hours during the week. She has other commitments, so she comes to our house when it works best for her, within “agreed reasonable hours” (she doesn’t come on the weekends, or before 8am).Both of us are usually working in our home offices when she shows up, so I needed a way to track her hours so I could pay her every 2 weeks. I was...
I had no idea this existed on iOS (there may be an equivalent on Android), and I was very skeptical about it, but it has turned spam calls into a non-issue for me.

Note that I would be careful about using pure tones for too long. Pure tones end up focusing the energy in your cochlea towards a small area of hair cells. Since these cells don't regenerate, it may be wise to avoid overstressing them.
My young daughter got 2 Amazon Gift cards for her birthday, but they look like they've been tampered with. I would like to check whether they are valid or not without having to go through the redeeming process: I want to avoid being at the mercy of a fraud detection algorithm that may lock me out of my account. There was a HN story not too long ago about someone who got locked out of their...
But if you are one of the "common kind", which is typically an insult to your hearing apparatus that damaged your cochlea, then the work from Susan Shore [2] is a reasonable explanation of what could actually be going on (genesis by the fusiform cells of the dorsal cochlear nucleus). You may be interested in checking out her publications listed in the wikipedia article quoted.

I think you are thinking of Gaby Olthuis. Her story is at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QzQ6kSqBOao
I still need transactional emails to go through, unless I change pharmacies, which isn't impossible to do, but has downsides that may be more painful than having to "Mark As Spam" a couple of times a week.
I unsubscribed from a marketing email list over a month ago. This is from a large pharmacy chain in the US that I suspect I got enrolled into during a medication purchase.I keep receiving marketing emails from them, and when I click "unsubscribe", the backend keeps telling me "There are no email subscriptions associated with *@*". That means it did take into account my unsubscribe request the...
Thankfully, the serial numbers aren't too close to each other, so I'm hoping they aren't part of the same batch.
Concretely, I use ZFS with a zpool with 2 SSDs in a mirror configuration. When one dies, even if it's sudden, I can just swap it out for another one and that's it.
My vulnerability window starts when the first SSD fails and closes when the mirror is rebuilt. If something bad happens to the other SSD during that time, I'm toast and I have to start restoring from backup.
Since that event, I've flipped the switch back to "snail mail" and will resist the constant nagging until they implement a paper fallback (i.e. notify by email first and if it's not paid within X weeks of deadline, fire off a paper notification).
My wife can use the BI app (even though it uses an outdated UI design). I haven't found any Frigate-based UX that would meet that bar (and that bar is not even particularly high with the BI app).
Would love to know if I'm missing a Frigate UX option that is "family friendly".
I realize this is going to sound dumb, but please also consider that we all (almost all) carry natural ear plugs with us in the form of our hands/fingers. When sound gets loud, do not hesitate to plug in quickly. Damage to our hearing apparatus depends on intensity and duration, so the sooner you plug the better.
It may be safer to plug your ears with your fingers quickly than to spend a few seconds looking for your fancy -33 dB ear plugs, as unexpected loud noises tend to surprise us but not last very long (ambulance, fighter jet, honking, etc).
In addition to this, there are lots of sound level measuring apps for our smartphones and it can be helpful to measure long lasting levels at venues (concerts, bars, etc). Airplane cabin noise is surprisingly loud. Noise canceling headphones are a great tool for this scenario.
Finally, remember that hearing damage is cumulative: what many of your peers will tolerate fine may not work for you and vice versa. Watch for "the straw that breaks the camel's back".
If your hearing apparatus has already been insulted, treat it with lots of care. If it hasn't already been insulted, treat it with lots of care.
One of the hardest parts of this disability is that it is invisible and so difficult to explain to a third party. People think you are overly dramatic.
In many cases, hyperacusis does get better on its own with time, so keep hanging in there.
Good luck to you.
What makes you think a puppy is not conscious?
For ref:
conscious | ˈkänSHəs | adjective aware of and responding to one's surroundings; awake.
Source: have a puppy. He's plenty aware of his surroundings.
In my neck of the woods (SoCal) the lowest rates for TOU (Time Of Use) are during the night (Super Off Peak, generally 12am to 6am). Most of the TOU plans are like this (see https://www.sdge.com/residential/pricing-plans/about-our-pri... )
Where are the settings for those?
