Curious if anyone knows the difference between using VSCode Copilot with Claude 3.7 and using Claude Code. In comparing the two, I do note some difference - but more or less the same end results. So far, I find using Copilot more intuitive and FAR less expensive. Curious if I'm missing something..

It sucks seeing so many previously remote Sr software engineering positions now listed as 'hybrid' - with hybrid being 4 days in office, with 1 employer selected day remote. Without question, I best deliver from my controlled home office environment - far better than some noisy office.

NIN - Every Day is Exactly the Same
YouTube video by G F NIN - Every Day is Exactly the Same

Sprint wrap and start activities just always feels like Groundhog's Day to me. Nine Inch Nail's "Every Day Is Exactly the Same" always feels like an appropriate soundtrack. Always makes me miss the lesser formal projects/teams I've worked on, getting work done without all the ceremony of Agile.

If it's "LIBRELA (BERANSA, SOLENSIA)- The TRUTH", I have been in there the last 72hrs and actively engaged. It's heartbreaking in there, but everyone is so compassionate and helpful.

Yes, we did the day of and updated yesterday. 2hrs after shot, she experienced a massive (5 min) seizure, followed by seizure related blindness and confusion for ~2hr - then slept. ~8hrs of acting normal after waking. Now the last 24 has been 'focal seizures' non-stop, so we updated the report.

My otherwise healthy dog got her first shot 72hrs ago and has had seizures since - we're terrified we're going to lose her. Clean bill of health, aside from OA, from vet before the shot. Was told "100% safe - safer than traditional treatments", which I now know is not accurate.

I'm glad you're questioning. My Nova got her first dose 72hr ago and has been having seizures since - none before. Had a clean bill of health, aside from OA, before shot. Now we're terrified we might lose her. I think they're misleading the public on safety for profits. I know it helps many, but...

Thank you! I feel like there's a lot of "positive" misinformation happening about Librela. We've been living a horror story with my Nova since she got her first dose 72hr ago - been having seizures since. No prior seizures and clean bill of health aside from OA before. Vet said "100% safe".

I'll be thinking about your pup. We're going through the horrors of Librela with our Nova now. She got her first injection 72hr ago and has been having seizures since - none before, and a perfect bill of health, aside from OA, before the shot. They're misleading us on the safety of this drug.

My Nova has been one of the horror stories. She's been having constant seizures (no prior) since her 1st dose 72hrs ago and we're terrified. She received a clean bill of health at her checkup, but the VCA vet strongly recommended Librela for OA - the first treatment for OA Nova has ever received.

I don't want to alarm you, but I am terrified by Librela - I think they're misleading us on it's safety. My 15yr old got her 1st dose 72hrs ago and has been having constant seizures since - never had one before and had a clean bill of health at checkup. We're terrified of what's to come.

FDA notifies Veterinarians about adverse events reported for Librela The FDA has identified and analyzed adverse events in dogs treated with Librela (bedinvetmab injection).

If your vet recommends Librela to treat arthritis in your dog, please do your research. This drug is not as safe as they're saying and my sweet Nova is now paying the price for their lies with constant seizures - she never had one until 2hrs after the shot. This is still an experimental drug!

Such a weird workday - didn't have enough vaca to take today, but I'm out tomorrow and Wed for NYE/NY. Needless to say, today is proving to be a totes very productive one /s. Guessing Thurs and Fri will be similarly weird and unproductive - should have pointed the sprint at <50%.

Yay! Glad to see more of the Angular and tech/dev community coming over here. Currently, it's so much warmer and more welcoming - here's to hoping we can keep it that way!

I also assumed it had something to do with how links work here vs X... On X, it's a URL shortener redirect - on here, they're first-class (the link you share is the link embedded in your post, not some generated URL controlled by the platform).

Pink put on such a fun show in Birmingham last night. Not only is she one hell of a performer, but the supportive and inclusive environment she provides for all is so heartwarming to experience.

I'm stoked to see it's more active here than when I last signed on. Liking the relative positivity as well.
