You were so close, Claude:

"For a proper ‘mac-assed mac app,’ we should use Apple's HelpBook system — an .help bundle that integrates with Help Viewer. This gives us the standard Help menu, searchable content, and context-sensitive anchors.”

@schwa Meanwhile, I’ve been advised Mariana needs to gain, and I’m trying to keep Buddy from getting envious about her extra .25 cup per meal. Maybe I need to print a bigger cup and just not fill his fully.

My friend Kristin has been working on this book for a long time, and I’m really excited to see the Kickstarter launch. This has been such a labor of love for her, and she and her partner have created a great book for kids.

If you have kids or know anyone with kids, please consider backing her project. Our future generations will benefit from a little more appreciation of culture!

Share widely, please!

@schwa @timonus I haven’t had it this bad since I first moved out here and had to adjust to the new pollen.

@timonus you too, eh?

I feel like we are starting to go off the rails when an LLM tells me, “That’s a fair challenge, and I want to give you an honest answer rather than a defensive one,” when I ask if it really performed the thorough audit it had claimed to perform….and it hadn’t.

@schwa @timonus @paul you mean Rogue One? Loved it. Not familiar with any other prequel. 😅

I’m unable to release any of it due to my company’s policies, but my latest hobby is using Claude code to port/update abandoned open source amateur-radio-related apps that would otherwise be too tedious to tackle so that they aren’t lost to an Intelpocalypse. Folks who aren’t bound by their employer’s policies should consider doing the same. (Not just for amateur radio, of course.)
