Sorry, unfortunately, due to various unforeseen circumstances, including
this one, out of four "small" packaging jobs I wanted to do today in 3
hours total, I was only able to complete one :( (bleachbit). Due to lack
of time, upstream I only filed a quick issue on bleachbit
(https://github.com/bleachbit/bleachbit/issues/2195) and only suggested
posting upstream here.
I recently started using LLM, and it helps me save time and achieve more
results on many things, but I still have to spend a lot of time
preparing local repos and test environments, explain what do, checking
them, and guiding and correct them so they have a good chance of
producing something useful and good. However, they often make mistakes
and can waste time. And since I can do more with them than I would
without them (in total), I'm getting into the "bad habit" of debugging
and possibly fixing too many of the things I find.
I thought about having Claude prepare the text for open the issue
upstream, but then, in the end, checking what he generates, responding
later, testing any upstream solutions, etc., I risked starting another
thing that could take a lot of time.
I'll see in the next days if I'm not too busy on other things if
continue also this.
