i’m with donny boy here. instead of limiting what people can do, push regulation that forbid corporations from building the kind of software that is bad for your mental health. ban infinite scrolling features, algorithmic feeds, and dark patterns. make the fines equal or higher than gdpr because now it’s about people’s actual health.
…that’s what they want instead, right?
it’s like those ai labyrinth honeypots, but for all traffic!
yeah i wonder what german law has to say about this
i’ve got a phev and lemme tell ya, those batteries are like three times the size (and weight) of the rest of the drivetrain combined, including fuel tank.
the bmw i3 rex is a pretty extreme example because it has a motorcycle engine, but they managed to cram the engine, inverter, gearbox and fuel tank into the space under the floor of the trunk, between the rear wheels, while the battery pack consists basically the bottom decimeter of the entire car. and that 9 liter tank doubles its range.
meanwhile the original chevy volt, a fwd car with an 1.6l i4, opted to keep the transmission tunnel and space where a rear axle would go to stuff them with batteries. really compromises the internal space, sacrifices a middle rear seat, and gives a whopping… 45km of electric range.
batteries and inverters definitely take up more volume than an ice drivetrain. the advantage is that they can be put in more places than the mechanical linkages.
only for a few more months!
opencode is a mess. it’s way overcomplicated.
personally i’m not really interested in agents, i want a tool that can automate repetitive tasks and refactoring. people seem to be building things to remove the programming altogether.
i’ve been out of work for the past nine months and looking at the software engineering news has had me feeling like i’m taking crazy pills. it’s like being in a cycling community because you love cycling, then you leave for a while and when you come back they’ve pivoted to cars.
any chance of an lsp server? i know the protocol is clunky as all hell, but local completions in any editor would be big.
the new citroen i was eyeing gets like 260, and that’s probably ideal conditions.
not for me :(
…if it has enough range to get you home.
…which usually makes them worse because they need to design them for both cases.
i use latex beamer templates for presentations. it’s hard to fuck up displaying a pdf. if you want you can use markdown -> pandoc -> tectonic to skip writing latex.
any european ones?
i’ll give you the second case, but nobody should plan for putting stuff on aws with the world as it looks right now…
…a hard disk? you can just write data to a file
i wasn’t the one making the claim, but for me it is undrinkable. when i say “impossible to swallow”, i mean literally. i have an allergic reaction to chlorine, and there’s enough in us tap water to make my throat swell shut.
i’ve definitely experienced the “getting used to it” thing in other countries, but unfortunately the throat swelling is a physical reaction to chlorine. i also can’t go in swimming pools without goggles or i get covered in blisters. on the skin it’s fine but if it touches a mucous membrane i’m fucked. also forgot about that when i first took a shower after landing in bc a few years ago, which was a fun time.
then at least some more people will stop using them.
