That really depends on the interest rate. If the going rate is good (especially 3% or below), why tie up the capital in a car purchase when you can be putting it to work elsewhere?

13 years ago?! Where does the time go. Unfortunately my original Pebble band deteriorated, but I did charge up my Pebble Time and it seemed to be working, will give it a sync for old times (pun) sake. I have a Pebble 2 Duo in route, I wasn’

This take is a bit delusional, at least in the US. Not everyone is childless and living downtown.

I agree with this sentiment, but if you are using it primarily as a consumption device, the OLED screen is probably worth sticking with the Pro line.

This isn't reddit, you don't need to inject politics where it does not belong.

Alternatively, just get better at C/C++… It isn’t going anywhere, and it feels like more developers are coming around to the idea that maybe security guarantees are not worth throwing the baby out with the bath water.

The simple answer is he invented it, it’s his baby, and despite his faults he is still best equipped to lead the project. Post-Linus Linux has great potential to go horribly wrong.

I sometimes wonder what an alternative history would look like if Jobs was still around. Apple has done well, but they have largely played it safe. Even their riskiest product, the Apple Vision Pro, seemed like less of an innovation and mor

Didn't Star Wars end in 2005?

In my vague recollection, there was some legitimate outrage. The logo was just what people rallied behind, people were really upset that they planned to remodel the whole restaurant/store with some generic corporate slop. The “woke” co

Apologies I am unfamiliar with it... if you can point me to a sample I would be happy to try.

I wanted to dip my toes in and bought a HiBy R4, it is now my primary music player and I have no regrets. Fair warning, it can kick off a headphone rabbit hole.

Agreed. Possibly controversial opinion but in my mind, on widescreen displays, it makes good sense to have the taskbar to the left or right.

I agree with the point being made, even if it is taken to an extreme. I would say you don't need to remember everything, but you do need to have been exposed to it. Not knowing what you don't know is a huge handicap in knowledge w

I am looking forward to this feature, but worry about it's accuracy. Every time I go to the doctor and they hook me up to a blood pressure monitor, it comes back way high (like 160/90). I then request a manual check and it always

Dot-com was the same way... the Internet did end up having the potential everyone thought it would, businesses just didn't handle the influx of investment well.

> I think overall I'm just less enthusiastic about the internet... Some of that is a function of age I am sure. When you are young, sites like reddit and digg hold promises of some new and interesting unknown unknown. As you get old

Great book, let’s hope it doesn’t end the same way.

I am not sure it will scale like that... every company needs a competitive advantage in the market to stay solvent, the people may scale but what makes each company unique won't.

I want to buy one but told myself I wouldn't until the Pebble 2 Duo shipped, which is presently delayed to late August, early September.

Are you thinking of Cisco or Juniper? Please link me to where Palo Alto sells DSL modems or Tape Drives.

Palo Alto is a legacy dinosaur? Pretty sure they are the current market leader in both firewalls and SOAR.

I agree... spent last weekend chatting with an LLM, filling in knowledge gaps I had on the electromagnetic spectrum. It does an amazing job educating you on known unknowns, but I think being able to know how to ask the right questions is ke

I think the golden years for this were around the PSP/DS homebrew scene circa 2006. I have some really fond memories of following the latest developments in the community, experimenting with toolchains, and general learning about progr
