The lack of curation is both a blessing and a curse for our community. It’s going to keep our feeds less engaging, which will limit our size. On the other hand, it’s going to keep our feeds less engaging, which will keep us engaging with our real lives more.

Another thing worth noting is there is no algorithm here that is finding the posts that will suck you in for hours and hours. And that’s OK

When I was a kid my family used to joke about a post birth abortion. It’s amazing to see someone so desperate that they actually are using the idea to win votes

Yeah but the original Wright Flyer was extremely janky. It took decades before planes were safe enough for the general public to fly on them. I doubt it’s going to take decades for LLM’s to get really good, but it’s undeniable that the current generation of these systems are somewhat lacking in quality

NA is a big enough market that lots of models already use specific variations. I could see that happening in the future with charge ports

CCS2 could certainly be redesigned to support 3 phase power in a smaller form factor if they upsized 2 of the power connectors on the mennekes plug to allow them to carry the dc current (similar to how nacs works). But it works well enough for Europe

Getting flushed into a sewer seems like a pretty shitty way to die

Drank two liters of the good stuff today on a hike

It says a lot about ccs that all the automakers are switching off of it. Even if the ccs networks weren’t noticeably worse, nacs is smaller, and should make for much easier vehicle packaging designs (see: Tesla nacs in taillights vs ccs behind a big door)

I’m still on the version they shipped out at release so I can keep my dupe glitch. Somehow I’ve put in over 200 hours in the game despite being a cheater, and I’m still grinding like crazy. Not sure why Nintendo set the economy the way they did tbh

This is why I’m going to hold onto my ancient inkjet without DRM until it dies. I can buy the no-name ink off amazon for $7 and it works just as good

I think it would be neat if every month they rotated the free color

If you look at what makes really good sci-if stand out, its that the authors figured out how to make the incredible seem mundane

I find my life tends to go better when I ignore that man

Check out the review. Apparently a bunch of the functionality is behind a non-disclosed $4k paywall

Memmy eventually runs out of colors and just stays blue

I for one think this kind of humor represents how we’ve really sunk to the bottom of the barrel here

I mean, come on, hasn’t this just crushed your spirits?

Once upon a time, air travel was the purview of the rich and famous. Early aviators like Amelia Earhart were celebrities, but their once-dangerous routes are now flown hundreds of times a day by commercial jets that most people can afford to fly on. The reason we all fly around today is that aviators discovered a virtuous cycle of scale -> profit -> investment -> scale that enabled the industry to develop ever larger and ever more efficient aircraft.

The same thing is going to happen with Spaceflight over the next few years. It took us about 60 years, but we have finally reached the point where lots of ventures can make profits in space, which should hopefully trigger another virtuous cycle that will end with affordable space travel for all

Trump and protest sell ads. Luckily we don’t need to worry about that here

Seems to me like we are close to hitting some kind of critical mass. It’s been amazing seeing things shift from 1-2 posts getting big threads and 100+ upvotes per day to seeing thousands of those. Also seeing over 100 comments on posts created 30 minutes ago has been neat

Did you remember to play en passant?

Unicorn throws such a sick disco party that the red and blue colored queens fall off of the board while dancing

I guess I’m not the only one who got recommended Dave’s channel recently. He has a ton of really good content

Something that some of the other replies have missed is that older movies were often shot (and a lot of actors were trained) from the perspective of a “stage play for the silver screen.” Stage plays have to work for large audiences, and so they tend to feature more exaggerated voice / body movements. These tricks were used on movies for a long time, but have faded as visual effects and sound recording have gotten better

Also, crypto itself is the very embodiment of scamming people

False, I made this

Hasn’t this always been the case? Software development is a balance between efficiency of code execution and efficiency of code creation. 20 years ago people had to code directly in assembly to make games like Roller Coaster Tycoon, but today they can use C++ (or even more abstract systems like Unity)

We hit the point where hardware is fast enough for most users about 15 years ago, and ever since we’ve been using faster hardware to allow for lazier code creation (which is good, since it means we get more software per man-hour worked)

In the future please post this to noncredibledefense

I don’t run either of the two communities but I’d love to see them grow

Thank you for posting this! As one engineer to another, well done!

On a side note, do you know if the Steam Deck has a dedicated grounding location to allow work with an esd strap?

First we need an active legaladvice too

Have you considered taking Reddit’s king?

Wow, never realized that the little engine that could is fully cooked

One quick question: I’ve never understood what people mean when they say Apollo never had an iPad app. I used it pretty much exclusively on my iPad for years, both in full screen and as a slide over app

They may be a shitty employer, but I’d rather see them hiring Europeans instead of putting the factory in china

I ended up looking this one up when I was getting this tower. The online guides said you needed to build a roof

If I had done that, I would have put the glasses on the back of my head to mess with people

Want to know the really messed up part? Let’s say tomorrow Greece changes their policy so that these migrant boats are always rescued and/or allowed to reach their shores. Since a lot of the passengers come from war zones, many of them will stay in Europe as refugees, and soon word will get out that these boats are a nearly certain way to make it to the EU. Sure enough, demand for these boat journeys will start to go way up.

You may be tempted to say “good, more people can escape from horrible circumstances.” And yes, this is certainly true. The only problem is that you are going to destabilize Europe and North Africa, all while giving smugglers a huge payday.
