What brand? I couldn't find any last time I looked, and I do generally prefer the dispenser style (slower to hit a temp, but rock solid once there, and basically always ready to go. surprisingly useful / habit-altering).

I loved having one of these until the non-stick coating inside started flaking off badly after a couple years. Nowadays I'm only touching steel and/or glass on these things. An all-steel-interior Zwilling kettle has lasted me twic

Boating seems like a pretty good fit here, yeah - adhoc and semi local, and everyone already relies on radio for stuff. And no issues with line of sight. Is there no longer-range p2p digital tech here though? It tooks to me like this would

As much as I truly love replaceable cords, I'd be more than happy enough if I could just unscrew the shell of the device, unscrew the power wires from where they attach, and put in any cord. Where I care about waterproofing, some sili

Meshcore seems a lot better thought out in that respect, yea. Flood routing is a very-well-known dead-end.

It's well suited for that at the moment, yeah - if that's what you're hoping to find by getting into it, it's pretty cheap and now's a great time.

Yea, I abandoned it before then too - it was clearly over-filled with old answers with no context as to if they're still valid. Everyone has had the experience where the top response was right for 3 months, but is now impossible to fix

Bitcoin is pretty much explicitly designed to use as much electricity as the market will allow, without becoming any more useful . If you removed 99% of the miners from the current system, Bitcoin will still be exactly the same - it wo

Yea, I've had only barely-success on only a few projects with act. Usually due to steps/scripts that use github-internal APIs, but afaict far from always. I like that it exists, but what a freaking mess that it's necessary an

Like how server hosting at scale in a datacenter is cheaper than running your own datacenter? Despite ~every company consistently concluding that hosting their own stuff is several multiples cheaper? No, I think local stuff using also-usef

I sorta doubt Bernie would've been causing the insane tariff chaos that Trump is constantly doing. How it's done matters immensely .

Multiple smaller rotors does seem to have a powerful simplifying ability due to redundancy and the much better responsiveness it offers. Generally though I agree with you. Plus it will always use WAY more power than a wheeled vehicle, and

An allow-list with transitive trust is a web of trust. And I said "use a web of trust", not "use an allow-list", because I really did mean "web of trust". And sure, they can be, if they adopt patterns that a

Ghostkeys seem like part of a decent approach to this, since it's a "prove contribution without dictating how" system. Crypto/cash/"they gave me a high five, they're cool" are all equally valid, and

by Groxx 5mo ago
There are tons of sybil-proof systems if you don't include signal from sources by default, but instead opt them in by hand. E.g. use a web of trust and then choose who you trust. It doesn't matter if there are trillions of accou

yea, there's a lot of scenarios it doesn't make sense in imo. and even with processing-gas-limits it's still kinda weird and harder to prevent abuse on (e.g. you can't predict costs because you don't know what requ

tombstones are sorta the default answer here (i.e. at simplest, you keep all data forever so you can merge correctly, but you hide anything where you've seen a tombstone after it). but "makes sense" and ways to optimize that

Neat. I've been wanting to see WASM-defined network behavior like this for a while (yay arbitrary consistency algorithms!), I'll have to explore it in more detail :) (the main thing I've been wanting to try: rather than grap

They are this wrong about everything , but you don't usually notice it when using it to look for things you aren't an expert in. The default stance really does need to be "do not trust, verify" at all times . They can

Rather obviously they're choosing the one that makes them look best. Another they link to¹ shows 98% for example. Much more importantly, 9/10 dentists agree it's the best. 1: https://arxiv.org/pdf/2501.15

Is there much of a way to recover from that kind of glomping? Kinda seems like the aerodynamics might hold them together (as the noses are somewhat pointed together), or with enough speed rip them apart chaotically since they're a bit

Yes, that is my point about "AI" generated text. It's deep into "doubt by default, require evidence before bothering" territory. Hence I think it's strange to defend spending time on it by default.
