I think for someone who hasn’t experienced this it would be helpful to see a real world example whether it’s a Claude session or illustrated in some other way. Can anyone share?
Not really, because I do my sessions exclusively in the cli. I've commited sessions once in a repo and GitHub complained about secrets. When I inspected the sessions it were exporting my zsh env which has got lots of secrets in it. So I need to first collect all sessions related to one change, as I also spread a single change in multiple sessions, sanitize it and then share.
What I think I'll do is to formalize my workflow in the form of a meta project and do write-up about it. I think it's going to be more useful to a wider audience than share sessions tied to a specific niche project.
However, in a nutshell, I do a discovery session in which I explore the problem. The output of this discovery session is a work-item document with lots of tasks in it but roughly defined. I then open another refinement session, so I intentionally lose the discovery context. This session improves the work-item doc. Then I open another execution session in which I iterate over each task. Then I do a post session in which the agent is instructed to verify if the work-item is indeed concluded or if we left work out by mistake. The output of this last session is either another follow-up work item or a decision change documentation, either in the work item I'm closing or the next work item if it's already there, so I document decision changes that I needed to make during the execution phase.
I’ve done that - moved out of a mold infested house into a brand new house and kept some but not all belongings. Can you elaborate on risks? What do I need to watch out for?
Mold can stick to some of the furniture even if it's not a large, visible spot. When mold developed on the wall behind your large wardrobe there's a good chance that the wooden back of the dressed caught a bit of it. You move to a new place and carry the spores with you. At worst the new place also has a humidity problem and the spores you brought accelerate the mold development process.
Anything that sat around a mold infested area is something you should look at closely, at least to proactively give it a thorough scrub and dry in a well ventilated area before bringing in the house.
An air filer with a real HEPA filter will help catch airborne spores but if you already have mold growth anywhere in the room you need to take care of that before blowing air all around.
I wouldn't worry if you have no symptoms. I'd advise to regularly monitor biomarkers of your immune system (monthly/quarterly bloodwork with vitamin D etc), take approriate supplements which take into account any genetic metabolism defects (MTHFR), and listen to your body, especially the magic tingling of your nose and any symptoms of seasonal allergy.
Generally a DIY HEPA filter and a CO2 monitor should be enough to keep good air in a home which does not have water damage. If you have ventilation then remember to swap your filters.
So this might not be the answer you were looking for, but from my digging into this ozone treatments can supposedly kill the mold spores but they are still able to somehow harm you when you breath them in. Mold is one of those things that is supposedly so bad to have around, even when dead in the furniture, can continue to harm you.
We have mold in my family's basement downstairs too and I run the ozone generator a lot to freshen the air. But unfortunately parents would never throw out the things.
If you have too much water in the basement a very easy fix that might work for you is to remove anything that blocks drainage on the outside of your house. E.g. there should be a strip of 1m all around your house where there is only earth or light crushed stones, but no tiles or plastic. I have seen two houses where there were tiles in the garden right up to the house wall, and the cellar was wet. Once the garden tiles outside directly next to the house wall were removed, the humidity from the cellar wall was able to evaporate to the outside air and the cellar got dry again.
It might be a very easy fix before you start buying expensive solutions. Maybe you have old pictures of the house before there were problems and you notice there was actually a strip of garden all around the house instead of concrete or tiles.
Be very cautious with ozone generators. Mold might or might not damage you but ozone will definitely damage you even at very low levels that you don't notice.
What would be a good strategy to prevent companies from cottoning on to this and gaming the system? They could for example change packaging on production runs for a product that’s undergoing laboratory.love funding campaign.
It's an interesting thought. Companies do change packaging somewhat regularly. However, the underlying skew usually remains the same. Changing the packaging and/or the SKU is very expensive. It's probably cheaper and more beneficial to your company to do your own Plastic Chemical testing and get ahead of the problem.
My suspicion is if this was gameable, this would be a solved problem by a number of companies. The truth is there is no single simple or even hard step to take, it’s mostly like numerous steps that multiple actors would need to do.
I might be generalising but in some countries (UK) it's common to not rinse soap/washing up liquid off dishes after washing them by hand. Being hypochondriac I was always curious about health aspects of this and feared something similar to what's described in the article.
I’m surprised that people don’t taste that in the food/drink they consume off their soapy dishes. It’s a distinct unpleasant taste that I tend to over rinse somewhat just to avoid, especially with cups/mugs where transfer is maximized.
VS's windowing system is better than Rider's. I often use VS with a layout which takes up two full screens (editor on one and Tests Explorer/Solution Explorer/Output Window/Find window etc on the other). I haven't yet found a way to replicate this in Rider.
I use Rider, and often have a code editor on my main monitor, debugger at the top of my secondary monitor, and tests at the bottom of my secondary monitor - it all works great.
At the top right of each window pane is a popup menu that let's you change the window mode, it's that simple.
Sir Francis Maude and the team he had around him untill about 2016.
I don't have the links to hand but there was some really great thinking going into what it meant to provide government services online at the time.
Unfortunately when he and the original team left and more people joined GDS / departments started to develop their own services a lot of direction and momentum was lost.
There used to be a twitter account @govdigirati that was great at satirising GDS after around 2017
Unfortunately GDS is now mostly toothless in all honesty
The GDS, even today, has an intrinsic beauty to it. It's really a marvel of engineering, though not the prettiest.
A big problem is that now a lot of designers, particularly among the contractors, who are several generations removed from the creators, simply don't understand it and don't follow the guidelines.
Shameless plug: I wrote a template pack for Django Crispy Forms so you can get fully GDS compliant, fully accessible pages with zero effort, https://github.com/wildfish/crispy-forms-gds

If this is true, then it proves everything that comes around, goes around. My first ever professional web development job was rebuilding the England and Wales Housing website[1], which was around the time that gov.uk was beginning its work to bring all central government online activity into the one site. The resistance from Government Departments - who all greatly value their semi-independence from the clutches of the Cabinet Office (and HM Treasury) - was immense!
I'm glad gov.uk won that fight: allowing each Government Department to have its own online presence, and their individual policies and procedures surrounding that presence, can never lead to a good outcome for people who have to access and use government services online.
Same position here. Pro is compelling because I own an old iPad mini that's due an upgrade and I wonder if Pro would provide that for me. But for size I like my current SE gen 1.
