This is a good time to restate the ancient truth that Donald Trump’s accusations are always, every time, without fail, a confession

Convicted Murderer Released by Trump From Venezuelan Prison Is Free in U.S.

The America First geniuses managed to send hairdressers and soccer players into a gulag and *import* a triple murderer into the US. Nice work.

I mean, if we’re stranded somewhere and it’s all we’ve got, by all means, parcel

This sentence could come in handy if the Flutter team is ever stranded somewhere and @redbrogdon.dev is parceling out the last of the gruel

I'm surprised that flattening helps. My intuition would be that more segmentation with clearly defined API boundaries would help LLMs reason about large codebases.

Can you say more about your experience?

I definitely think so. *Someone* still has to understand written code to inevitably debug or refactor in preparation for new features, and until LLMs have the ability to pilot arbitrary complexity, that someone remains us.

Open an issue to start a dialogue with Brett Morgan. Codelabs are built from Markdown files and a build process, so you don't want to edit the actual files.

I used to use Sleep Cycle, but found that my awareness of it listening to my breathing was *very* distracting. I could certainly try it again, however.

I'm interested in a sleep tracker for one specific feature above all else: gentle wake-ups if I drift back into deep sleep near my wake up time.

It also can't track my sleep via sound, because I sleep with white noise every night.

Anyone have recommendations?
