Richard Howes @richardhowes.tech · 19hWhat a great story, but that also looks like a staffie and not a pitbull. Here is our Angel and she is just as friendly. 000
Richard Howes @richardhowes.tech · 10/09/2026My real world testing, which is daily and extensive, has increasingly shown me that benchmarks are becoming useless if they’re not already. Gemini 3.8 Flash is really good, but it’s not better than Astra or Fable. 050
Richard Howes @richardhowes.tech · 04/09/2026I'm a lifelong tennis player at a fairly high level and I KNOW I could not take a point off Serena. Those guys are idiots. 100
Richard Howes @richardhowes.tech · 04/08/2026Mate, printers have been unfathomable since I started using them in the 80s. 010
Richard Howes @richardhowes.tech · 04/07/2026First compiter I touched or had even seem was also a ZX81 a friend of mine had. The first I ever owned was the original ZX Spectrum 48k. 010
Richard Howes @richardhowes.tech · 29/03/2026Sorry for your loss mate. I know too well how it feels. Here’s a pic of our girl in solace. 020
Richard Howes @richardhowes.tech · 23/03/2026This vehicle is the calssic Emperor's New Clothes metaphor. Ugliest damn vehicle every made, and that's saying something. 000
Richard Howes @richardhowes.tech · 11/03/2026This is vibe coding done propping you want to know. 😉 000
Richard Howes @richardhowes.tech · 12/02/2026Great post, thank you!! Let me down a rabbit hole investigating my own situation. 031
Richard Howes @richardhowes.tech · 28/10/2025And 3, the fact that the wealthy, who can afford to pay more with no ill effect, would rather leave than support the poor, is exactly the problem with a late-stage capitalist system. 000
Richard Howes @richardhowes.tech · 13/10/2025I don’t normally comment on these sorts of posts, but “never worked a day in her life”? Seriously? 😮💨 I’m a husband & father & I feel insulted for her. Hers is a INFINITELY more challenging role with a TON more work & NONE of the glamour. 010
Richard Howes @richardhowes.tech · 25/08/2025Well the last 100 took a LOT longer than the previous seven. 🤷♂️ 030
Richard Howes @richardhowes.tech · 08/06/2025One of my favourite movies I keep watching periodically. 120
Richard Howes @richardhowes.tech · 22/03/2025We’re all sorry. America and the rest of the world would be a better place if you were wrong. 000
Richard Howes @richardhowes.tech · 22/03/2025Hey @adamkinzinger.bsky.social, why did you delete this post? 100
Richard Howes @richardhowes.tech · 12/03/2025Never thought I would ever have anything but a dark IDE theme, but here we are. 🤷♂️ 130
Richard Howes @richardhowes.tech · 10/03/2025This explains its use for teaching. The Wikipedia article also said this, “It was widely used as a teaching language in university-level programming courses in the 1980s”. 010
Richard Howes @richardhowes.tech · 27/02/2025I have a two year old staffie that sits like that... 🤷♂️ 000
Richard Howes @richardhowes.tech · 26/02/2025Used Anthropic's Claude (latest Sonnet 3.7) to design the DB schema by passing it a spreadsheet we are using to record our ops data. Claude created the DB after asking some questions & made some great suggestions. Then it created the Laravel migrations and told me how to run them. 🔥🔥 000
Richard Howes @richardhowes.tech · 26/02/2025Progress! Not sure about the UI/UX (I'm no expert) but this was created using the latest agentic Cursor.com in a almost one shot (there were heriocon import issues that needed another prompt to fix paths). Looks 🔥🔥 to me with Shadcn/Vue and Cursor doing all the work. I love Laravel and Cursor!! 110
Richard Howes @richardhowes.tech · 25/02/2025And now I have it deployed on cloud.laravel.com and using WorkOS for authentication. A little tricky and things to understand, but not too difficult in the end. 000
Richard Howes @richardhowes.tech · 25/02/2025I decided to use WorkOS for authentication which added a learning curve but it does allow for using our company Google Workspace accounts for access. And the default starter kit dashboard looks amazing if you as me. Love it!! 100
Richard Howes @richardhowes.tech · 13/02/2025🤦♂️ Turns out of course that the post above is #1000. 010
Richard Howes @richardhowes.tech · 08/02/2025With four dogs in the house it’s best to keep your favorite toy close while you sleep. 😉 000
Richard Howes @richardhowes.tech · 08/02/2025Little Angel gets stressed when the cat starts licking nearby and finds a safe place… 🤷♂️🤣 020
Richard Howes @richardhowes.tech · 02/02/2025I hate click bait like this!! Just one of the reasons I watch my esports on YouTube when I can these days. I already pay for YouTube Premium to get rid of adverts. 110
Richard Howes @richardhowes.tech · 27/01/2025Our #stevia trial farm is looking fantastic at this time of year. Mid-summer the stevia grows incredibly quickly!! 110
Richard Howes @richardhowes.tech · 22/01/2025ChatGPT tasks could be very useful. Used to get my news on the hellsite and was wondering how to replace that. This might just be the solution. I’ll keep you posted. 😉 #OpenAI #ChatGPT #AI 140
Richard Howes @richardhowes.tech · 20/01/2025I'm often reminded of this movie where a more advanced civilisation eventually decides the human race cannot be allowed to destroy any more biodiversity. 010
Richard Howes @richardhowes.tech · 19/01/2025Well there’s the 600. A lot of bots of course, which is a pity, but still… 🤷♂️😉 000
Richard Howes @richardhowes.tech · 17/01/2025I’ve never understood why Boomtown by David and David wasn’t bigger. Absolutely cracker album. 100
Richard Howes @richardhowes.tech · 08/01/2025Saw this post and made another attempt to implement and test Flare. Sigh, so close. I really want to try it. 100
Richard Howes @richardhowes.tech · 07/01/2025I never used the mute feature on the other site, and should have. I've decided today is the day on here. 040
