Claude is so good at fixing test flakes that it feels irresponsible not to have it fix one when you see one.

Our dev commands sometimes output authentication URLs in the terminal that need to be clicked, which then opens a form to submit.

Suddenly blocking on this annoyed me, so now I have:

1. An iTerm2 "trigger" to automagically open the URLs: https://github.com/henrik/dotfiles/commit/e34a9df0a08453615fea89cd8e53dea7737d9936
- An Arc Boost (userscript) to autosubmit the form once opened.

So nice!

The script tracks opened unique-code URLs to only trigger once, as URLs in a terminal can otherwise trigger *repeatedly* (infinitely)… ask me how I know 😅

@fishidwardrobe @tmr232 @kepano I show meetings automatically in my daily notes, though not yet via Bases.

Trying more. Proportionally more successes but the bad ones are bad.

Most baffling one is KAFFEREP (”coffee klatch”) which is incorrectly pronounced as though it was KAFFERET (”coffee taunt”).

@kepano Currently 2 bases: item inventory (warranty info, specs etc) and a food DB (rating, where to buy etc).

Excited to discover the IKEA app (at least here in the UK) has audio pronunciations of the names… but they are wrong? Then what is the point? 🫠 #SLOPP

Of the 3 I tried, 2 were wrong:

VINTERFINT should presumably be /fi:nt/ (”winter pretty”) not /fint/ (”winter dodge”).

GÖRSNYGG should surely be a hard G (Gothenburg dialect ”very attractive”) not a soft J (”makepretty” as a nonsense compound). Also, Gothenburg dialect mandatory for this one.
