  • I use it all the time as a kind of brainstorming tool.

    “I want to do X (and details), can you tell me what tools or algorithms are available to me? List their pros and cons and give me some comparison”

    Or on a somewhat recent project of mine, I has to effectively stub an entire library (but didn’t have to be done well), so I just told AI “take this page (the docs) and generate empty function stubs from it”. It doesn’t need to be high quality since it doesn’t run, it’s just to fool the dotnet engine.

    I also tend to ask AI to add logging to some functions, since it’s annoying to do and impossible to mess up.

    The major complaint I hear is that it takes forever to charge. It’s fine for commuting if you charge at home/work, but sounds a bit rough for road trips and the likes.

    I often see people at the gas station’s plug just watching videos or reading a book outside, doesn’t make me want one. Hybrid though I could see myself buying.

    If you have a slow cooker or dutch oven, making a basic stew is a simple as cutting veggies and throwing that with some broth and beef cubes for a few hours. Spice it with a lot of thyme and garlic. For a better broth, consider red wine (the cheapest is fine) and thicken it with corn starch.

    I always do stews for myself and I live alone. You can store the extra portions in mason jars, keeps very well, though if you’re doing that I recommend whole small potatoes since cut ones will dissolve over time.

    But it’s good.

    If parking is free, you’d still be paying for it indirectly through your tuition. By charging for it, only those who actually need it pay for it.

    Imagine you don’t have/use a car but still indirectly pay for other people’s parking spots because they can’t be bothered to walk.

    Honestly you don’t need your family to be rich. A family well-off enough to give you:

    • Good financial education
    • Doesn’t kick you out at 18 or require rent
    • Pays your tuition (maybe not in the US)
    • Supporting in your endeavors
    • Family loans (not having to pay interest is massive)

    Makes a HUGE difference.
