@joeovies.bsky.social nice job on CSN today for a State guy. Norlander is so one sided with Duke & UCONN love.

@joeovies.bsky.social Good hearing Fishel. You really fail at podcasting when you never let people plug their shit before ending, he gots the Toktiks 😜

5:45 and still nothing. Weather nerds say it could take another hour. This storm is hilarious. The radar looks like an unzipped jacket with the open space being dry.

As of 1:40PM, southwest Raleigh is still awaiting snow. What started as a potential 6-10 inches is now 1-3 inches. I’m thinking it is going to be a sneak attack. Cold wind & 20 degrees is all so far. The North Carolina bubble is real.

Winter storm thankfully produced sleet instead of ice. Sidewalks & steps are still a mess. Neighbors were clearing sidewalks yesterday but stopped short of our section. Sweet.

I added taping over our external door locks. Whenever we have wind & frozen precipitation, the locks stop working. Crazy what you think to do before a winter storm.

One local new channel has been talking the winter storm most of the day & there’s nothing to report.

I’ve filled up the 5 gallon water container in prep for the winter storm in NC. If North Carolina weather traditions hold, the storm will shift away from Raleigh. πŸ₯Άβ„️

Interesting. Inside Edition says people want to return to #2016. Do people really want to go back to the year Hilary lost & minds were blown out of comprehesion?

Posted a COBOL program dump & listing to Copilot to find the error. Copilot thought for 5 mins, speculated with no specific error. ChatGPT thought for 4 mins, provided & explained the specific error. #AIBattle

Nice job @nbc for providing audio description on @YouTubeTV for the #RoseParade. @ABCNetwork advertised it but there’s no descriptive audio. @Disney falls short.

@joeovies.bsky.social Bracketology started in early 90s. I was at the Vitale class in 93 for Midnight Madness at UNC in the Student Union. Vitale was cool after the camera was off, but we reminded him of β€œMuchigan all the way” the year before. #OGOnBusiness

I really need to try Claude & Gemini for mainframe coding. ChatGPT is amazing at building DB2 queries. Just start a complex task slow & gradually add complexity. 35 mins to create & test, it would take me all day to plan & code. πŸ™ˆ

Distressing how ChatGPT and other AI can review a code dump of COBOL errors in 30 seconds. It would take a couple hours usually to grab all the error logs and compiler outputs then review fault analyzer and convert binary message codes. Mainframe coding is simplified.

In a follow-up, OmahaSteajs is going to replace the thawed items. Much appreciated & glad to see companies stand behind their products.

Ordered from @OmahaSteaks, quality is great, shipping is not. Used to ship in foam cooler, now in insulated cardboard. Products were partially thawed. Must be woke courage to save a tree. Not good when burgers & chicken are thawed on delivery. I’ll need to call on this.

Very disappointed. The ParamountPlus app on Roku must’ve updated. Now the Roku screen reader doesn’t read within the app. We watch more on Paramount than other networks. Accessibility broken.
