Really sad to see some of the best visualizations I've ever seen in my life being taken down. I've easily spent hours exploring playing with their gun deaths visualization, p-hacking piece, gut microbiome explorable explainer and

I mean if you look at the code, it's a pretty faithful rewrite. It seems like being near 1-1 with the original code was prioritized even more so than utilizing Rust's safety features since unsafe Rust is everywhere

Bun's rise over Deno is honestly shocking. One man's project that went viral because of some very misleading benchmarks has evolved into a behemoth in an incredibly short time frame. Some major projects bought into the benchmarks

by culi 6mo ago
Unlikely. Not all npm packages are even compatible with Bun (tho 98% are). Bun started off as an alternative runtime to Node (like Deno) but today is an everything-monster. It even has a built-in test-runner. To be completely honest, if y

Older models are locked to Tesla vehicles. Tesla has regional restrictions in many parts of the world. You also never know when there could be another update and your region becomes one of those that has these restrictions.

They've been China dependent for over a decade now. What's different this time is it's an active fuel blockade. US is intercepting ships and explicitly trying to starve people

This is a blockade. It's explicit in Trump's executive order. Blows my mind how many americans don't or don't care that the explicit goal here is to starve human beings. It's literally a crime against humanity. One

Important to point out that Batista was installed by the US. There are only 2 countries in all of South America that DON'T have the experience of having a democratically elected leader ousted in a US-backed coup and replaced by a dic

You can bypass vehicle restrictions. You could potentially then use it for J1772-compatible EVs (like a Chevy Bolt or Nissan Leaf) Or just for the spirit of actually owning the shit you pay for.

I wish I as a student had this power. I took an exam once for a class I had taken before (transfer student woes). I went into the hall, took the easy exam, turned it in, and left. They lost my test. I had no idea until 3 weeks later when ex

TBH I had no idea most people thought of these platforms as being focused on tech content. I've enjoyed a ton of social science courses. I was a big fan of the MOOC model at the peak of its hype cycle for the possibility of opening up

Temu boots don't feel like "abundance" to me compared to some nice tailored $400 boots that you take to the cobbler when there's an issue. I think in abundant society people would be able to have nice things and the time

Exactly how a "free market" should work. But it won't work that way because AI is considered a "national security priority" so it will always be bailed out
