@designatednerd @simon Just a longer process. I like using a chatbot style model to chat through an idea and then get _it_ to write the seven paragraph prompt.

@offby1 I got burned by that last week too. I had to temporary lift the “no internet access for my TV" settings in the router firewall so I could log in on the smart TV that I have enforced to be dumb.

@regehr If you ever have an integer type floating around in your code whose byte ordering is anything but native you messed up. This pattern tends to come from a kind of “C brain” where network packet headers are “parsed” by just casting a pointer to a buffer. This is unholy, and God will call […]
