From the cajunfood community on Reddit: Sunday BBQ Plate Lunch Explore this post and more from the cajunfood community

“South End Country Mart, Lafayette -$12.99 lunch plate - pork ribs and pork steak (sliced butt) with sausage, rice dressing, and baked beans.”

Two takeout containers filled with Cajun food are shown side by side, each holding a portion of seasoned rice, baked beans, a link of sausage, a cut of barbecued pork, and a section of barbecue sauce; the food appears hearty and smoky, and the post is shared from the “cajunfood” community on Reddit, suggesting pride in Southern or Louisiana-style cooking.

This is the Cajun food I grew up eating. We call these plate lunches in Louisiana and you can them it at convenience stores, restaurants and grocery stores. Plate lunch rice dressing is my favorite.

Ah, lovely. Thank you!

Ran out of space but "it" being "You will not pay once you hit your limit". Or something. I'd take a screenshot but my VM is being repaired.

Claude is the best, always. However Reddit said that Copilot limits the context size to keep costs down. My favorite combo is Roo + OpenRouter.ai API but that can reach $300/mo for me. Now I settle for GPT 4.1 since I get it free. Then I use Roo to access Copilot's Sonnet for its Architect mode.

Go to GitHub.com → Settings → Billing & licensing → Usage, and click Set up budget. By default, it’s set to $0, meaning once you exceed your plan, Copilot will block premium models rather than keep charging you. Mine actually says it on my lil drop down.

It feels like we should be making a bigger deal of “we actually did in fact find a cure for AIDS”

A black cat stood in a bath, drinking from the tap. His tongue is sticking out. Only his eyes and nose are in focus, the rest is blurry, making him seem out of proportion.

I swear, it's impossible to take a normal photo of Edgar Allan Paws. He just emits pure photographic chaos fields.

I find lots of joy in creating things that I wouldn’t be able to otherwise, like mutesky.app

It felt very creative to me as a developer of 30+ years. I’m older and tired and happy to have this infusion of excitement and possibilities.

20 Things I’ve Learned In 20 Years as a Developer. Whilst sipping my coffee and watching my 4 year old play his Switch I thought back to a time when I was a kid and enjoyed playing consoles. I looked back on the last few years and realised that this year is my 20th year as a professional in the trade. I started a thread on Twitter with things that were a common theme over the years and have exported this using Social Opinion and the conversation_id. 1. Learning never ends. This is both a curse and a blessing. I still love tech and get excited but I have days when I just want something to work without endless configuration or obscure configuration. 2. Everything is cyclical Do it on the client. Do it on the server. Do it on the client. Do it on the server.   Do whatever is best for the project, team and customers. 3. Everybody has opinions. That's cool. But sometimes the person with the loudest opinion doesn't mean it's the best. You have to listen to everything and everyone then weigh up the pros and cons of all suggestions or ideas. 4. Ask

I've been in the tech space for a while.

Here are 20 Things I’ve Learned In 20 Years as a Developer.

Wait, you type extra g's too???

I'm convinced that I did this to the world. I type extra g's ALL the time and this is a classic typo of mine. I believe one day, I went to dismiss it and I pressed accept and Apple recorded it as a valid word. Sorry to everyone who uses a Mac and PowerShell.

I've not regretted subscribing to @kagi.com yet. Been months. A much cleaner search experience. On the (very rare occasion) that it doesn't have what I'm looking for, going back to Google is a stark contrast that reminds me why it's worth it.
