Idk if I've been committing a coffee crime, but I've been doing this for about 6 months now.

18g (preferably light roast) coffee.
Grind at 16 clicks Timemore C2.

00:00 (closed):
pour 350ml water, then coffee, stir
05:00:
Open valve and drawdown

Add 300g ice. Enjoy.

I've tried various grind levels and got similar results. The only change was the drawdown time, but if you factor in the temperature when adding ice, it tastes basically the same. I've yet to do an A/B test and all observations are compared to the previous day's brew.

I don't like hot brews or darker coffee so ymmv :shrug:

There's the Gemini watermark at the bottom right.

It's very similar to what I've been feeling.

Casey Muratori said the same thing in a video some time ago (paraphrasing) -
I don't like using AI not because I hate the concept, but I don't want to remove the part that I want to do.
Some people get joy in looking at their ideas come to life regardless of the process. They are the ones excited about AI.
Programming for me is not about getting the end result, but the process of solving the problem. And people who like this part are the ones who don't like it that much. If I like playing drums, I'd want to play the drums and not get a drumming machine that may play 10x better than me.

Tangential question - Is it possible to feel some way for a period of time and realize what it is (or close to what it is) after it has been articulated by someone?

Or better yet, can the brain, with its subconscious bias, trick you into believing like you've been thinking the same thing after someone has said something that broadens your horizons?

I never realised this until I saw the video, and then felt guilty that I may be "stealing" the reason from someone because I liked what he said. Video link if anyone's interested - https://youtu.be/suZ2Gt6i8do .

* Calls 911 *

"Name your drink, McDonald's has it. For the special..."

* 30 seconds later *

"Thank you for calling 911.
For reporting a burglary, press 1.
If you are being chased by an armed person, press 2.
....
For an ambulance, press 14.
If you want to talk to an operator, press 0."

* Presses 0 *

This call is being recorded for training and monitoring purposes. You will be connected to an operator after the beep.

* Beep *

"Hello I'm Haley 9000, an AI powered voice operator. How can I help you?"

Maybe use a RAM based fs? Some distros mount /tmp as tmpfs into the RAM. You can look into that.

Yeah, these things quickly boil down to the trusting trust thing (see Ken Thompson's Turing award lecture). You can't trust any system until you've designed every bit from scratch.

You gotta put your trust somewhere, or you won't be able to implement jack.

I got reminded of it last week after years. What are the chances it came up again. 😁

It's in Intercal, a joke language from '70s. Mark Rendle describes it here in his talk at NDC. This whole talk is ridiculous btw.

Can't say if you're being sarcastic, but the that account username in the image is definitely of an Indian male.

There's croc which looks very similar to magic-wormhole. Haven't used magic-wormhole so can't compare the two though.
