Yes this. While I sympathize with folks calling for weaker patents as an alternative solution, I think that's a non-starter given the power of entrenched interests. If this were easily fixed, it would be fixed by now. Best approach mig

For me it's the semi-trucks, modified passenger cars/trucks and motorcycles. Normal cars sound more like white noise. I used to live 2 miles from the freeway and could pick out the problem vehicles when there was an inversion la

Recently started looking at daycares in San Diego. All the good ones near me are within a couple hundred feet of a major freeway. I can't believe people send their kids to something like that. Intuitively, I don't mind the ones

Right. Not quite what I'm saying. Take away the user moderation and you still have bias but you lose the feedback loop. You level the playing field between folks who live in their basements and folks with more balanced lives.

It's getting harder to find good online discussions devoid of bias and emotions. With user moderation, control goes to those with the most time to waste online, meaning the least happy, productive and social.

I just want my 2000 Toyota Tacoma but with a small EV(0-60 in 10s is fine, 150hp is fine, 200mi range is fine).

I'd love an EV truck but not the weird little thing highlighted in this post. I watched an overview video someone linked but turned it off as soon as I saw the guy trying to fit inside the tiny cab. Also, why is this goofy little truc

People addicted to online forums love to comment and upvote posts which trash talk trucks. People who own and enjoy trucks are busy leading fun and productive lives and can't be bothered to waste their time with online arguments.

Same issue happening in the US right now too. Datacenters are gobbling up electricity and pushing prices ever higher. Tariffs will make it even worse, with prices the utilities have to pay for infrastructure shooting higher. I've hear

This. My old neighbor had a broken hot tub that would breed thousands of mosquitoes. Buying the fancy, $200, german made trap was satisfying because of how many it caught but it didn't keep you from being bit.

Well the economics of farm labor seem to be changing dramatically now, so maybe formerly expensive methods become profitable?

Yeah but are there other, sensor based approaches that would also work? Ripe berries are softer, so sonic/ultrasonic waves would propagate differently. Is there a wavelength of light which behaves differently? Can shaking the branch

Yeah. Dr. Ford Brewer( https://www.youtube.com/@PrevMedHealth ) talks a lot about this. I find him to be pretty current and he translates things into an easily understood format. Basically the calcium stabilizes the plaque.

I weight trained until having a toddler and a new house at 50. 3 months later and I get up from a chair like I'm 75 and all my joints hurt.

The older I got, the more games just seemed like pointless wastes of time. Makes me sad to think back on how much time I wasted. I still fire up an old game or emulator out of nostalgia occasionally, but the time before I turn it off gets

I wonder if you got unlucky with tires. Seems some mfgs are playing with new recipes and eco friendly ingredients causing the tires to dramatically miss their stated lifetime. My last tires were Michelin Defender somethings from Costco an

Yep, years ago I had a friend with a VW Beetle and he'd never use the brakes unless he had to. I thought it was cool and carried the story with me. One day I mentioned it to a mechanic friend and that was his exact response. I'v

Same year here. Actually the battery charging issue left us stranded a few times but only once in public. It was the faulty fuel gauge firmware that left us stranded on the side of the I-5 freeway in the middle of CA. The CVT sort of suck

Not so sure about Subaru. I love my Outback but it is also the only car I've ever owned which left me stranded twice due to two separate firmware issues. Both issues were known and Subaru failed to communicate them to me. I will prob

I find these LLM doomer takes as silly as LLM maximalist takes. LLMs are literally performing useful functions today and they're not going away. Are they AGI? No, but so what? There is waaay too much projecting and philosophizing goin

Also worth noting that persistent negative effects do not require a bad trip. You can have a wonderful time and still have long lasting issues.

Basically this. Many times I've gotten too casual with them and then been reminded that they are not a party drug. Persistent HPPD(ok, redundant) and long lasting anxiety and/or motor issues(tics).. inability to focus. It'

As an old dev this is really all I want: a sort of autocorrect for my syntactical errors to save me a couple compile-edit cycles.

When I grew up back in the 80s there was a sense of more stability, I think. People didn't move around as much. American suburbs were more of a monoculture(for better and, mostly, for worse, but it was what it was). That stability a

Garages are just a good place to hang out in coastal CA. They cool down quicker than the rest of the house and you can have your friends over for beers without worrying they're going to mess up your house. Also, our Filipino community

Parents just want to watch their Internet content and it's easier to just stick their kids in front of a video game or computer vs having an event that requires parenting. At least when parents are addicted to alcohol they can still be
