    Wow no I was wrong, it's stupider than that: the bot apparently runs twitter searches for "remote work and remote jobs" and replies even to people who didn't tag it!
    Aaron Parecki
    This reminds me of an experiment I did back in the early days of Twitter when you could use the search API to find literally every tweet.

    I ran this a few years in a row, and by 2010 traffic had picked up enough that I was finally hitting rate limits.

    Yeah that bot is getting absolutely hammered right now https://twitter.com/switchs03468828/status/1570499883894996993
    Aaron Parecki
    For those of us who have not followed this as closely, what is the bot *supposed* to reply back with? As in what did the company intend the bot to respond with? Also why do all the prompts start with "When it comes to remote work and remote jobs"? Is that part of tricking it?

    I bought it for live monitoring, with all the struggles Iโ€™ve had getting audio to the optimum levels. Then realized it has a plugin for Resolve, and ๐Ÿคฏ

    Adding this @tcelectronic CLARITY M STEREO hardware to my Resolve setup has made balancing audio so much easier. Itโ€™s amazing to see your audio levels so clearly.

    what that's so cool, I need one!

    Is installing a Unifi Door Access system for my front door overkill? Yes.

    Do I want to do it anyway? Absolutely.
    Aaron Parecki
    It seems like with a fail-secure electronic door strike, you could put a regular doorknob with a physical key as a backup in case the power goes out or the whole system goes down, and it'll work like a regular door in that case.

    If you think about it, since most people have to get their eyes checked every few years. Aren't glasses/contacts just a subscription service for sight?

    LOL! We moved so I don't live there any more!
    BUT I keep a page of "straight text" for when I need to copy and paste into forms!

    Funny to hear from you! I was thinking about Indy web this morning and how much autonomy you have been teaching for a decade!
    Aaron Parecki
    It's a little terrifying that it's been that long tbh! Still living and breathing it though, including how I'm writing this post!

    I'm one of those pet owners that has a manual for when I go away and an online database for my VET to interact with me through.

    We really need to be focusing as much resilience as we can for each of us.
    Aaron Parecki
    Did you just put your front door code on the internet ๐Ÿ˜ฎ

    I love it though, this is much prettier than the page of text I leave for mine.

    Ugh, Iโ€™m doing my roof and gutters. What is the best way to get solar panels? I assume the โ€œfor freeโ€ people are a bit scammy?
    Aaron Parecki
    Don't go the "for free" route. It's not actually a scam, but it's basically an agreement that you'll keep the panels for a fixed period of time like 15-20 years, which can really mess things up for future owners of the house. Ask me how I know ๐Ÿ˜ฌ๐Ÿ™ƒ

    Meeting is doneโ€ฆ PBOT will share proposal w added promised features and give folks until this Monday (emails of everyone were gathered) to sign off on it. Then itโ€™s full steam ahead.

    (Not sure what happens if the neighbors say no to the proposal.)

    Full story tomorrow. ๐Ÿ˜Ž

    Not the outcome I expected! I hope I'll be able to see a copy of the plan too!

    The whole thing is SIGNIFICANTLY smaller than I was expecting. They look bigger in photos and videos, but they're seriously tiny.

    my only complaint is that there's no room in the case for the 1/8" cable and I have definitely grabbed the mic case and forgotten to bring the cable once or twice

    Perfect. I donโ€™t have to buy a new Sanken lav if I buy this ๐Ÿ˜…
    Aaron Parecki
    The barrel locking mechanism on the Sennheiser ME 2 actually makes it not fit all the way in. See how it's like 1mm recessed? I returned the ME 2 once I tried it, so I'm not sure about the Sanken.

    For anyone that has a @DJIGlobal Mic, can you tell me what kind of mic jack it uses if you were to plug a lav into it?

    Is it the same barrel lock adapter you see on Sennheiser mic packs?

    I can't tell ๐Ÿ˜…
    Aaron Parecki
    There's no screw threads on the mic jack, it's just a regular 3.5mm jack.
