I have an actual rubber duck for that. I hate it when my colleagues interrupt me just because they forgot how lambdas work

He’s talking about that shady coyote who’s always chasing after that flightless bird.

Maybe the United States should pass laws that force public utilities to be owned by the public and operated as a nonprofit?

Idk, Miles Dyson was able to engineer a neural-net processor with room temperature superconductors all the way back in 1995…

Go watch the Aging Wheels Silverado EV road trip video. Charging infrastructure is fine, and even when the truck itself broke and wouldn’t charge at the proper speed it was still fine.

EVs aren’t being adopted because the fast charging infrastructure is lacking. Improvements can be made, sure, but that’s not the reason. 95%+ of people do not need fast charging.

When (slow, 120 or 240V) charging is more available to people without garages/driveways (read: at apartments and in workplace parking lots) you’ll see EV adoption in the US ramp up substantially: new car buyers will opt for the thing that’s less likely to suddenly cost double-per-mile next week, and used car buyers will have an increasing supply of 3-10 year old EVs to choose from.

I resisted so much the concept of systemd, and certainly there still are some aspects of it that I think are objectively bad (looking at you, binary journal), but as I’ve been forced into using it for work I do think it’s a better system on the whole than sysvinit… at least for servers. I don’t know if it’s better or worse on desktops because I never really need to think about my init system on my own PCs.

…in POG form!

If your username didn’t already give me pause, your reply here would have. Yikes.

Could also be restated as “Your kid doesn’t owe you a goddamn thing.”

Nothing worse than “I need grandbabies” and “if you don’t get a good job how are you going to take care of me when I’m old” in the same fucking Christmas dinner.

expectation intensifies

I remember the first time I heard Dark Side (on CD through a discman), and also the first time I heard it on vinyl through proper loudspeakers at my uncle’s house. Felt like hearing it for the first time twice.

Translation: they refused to allow us to inject telemetry into their firmware.

My voice is my passport. Verify me.

I’m just glad the birds remembered to get a salt lick for the getaway driver.

the perfect car would be sodium battery, all tactile buttons and switches, one screen in the middle with carplay/android auto.

more fuel for the vim-emacs holy war

oh don’t worry, they’ll start participating in mesh networks with your neighbors’ smart devices and getting internet access that way
