Margins in trucking simply can’t accommodate self driving without the costs of shipping having to go way up. The tech is expensive, we’re probably decades away from true self driving with no minder in the truck on open roads, who the hell k

I pay for music (Spotify) because it’s easiest to share with family members and I honestly don’t even listen to much anymore. We’ve been trimming down our streaming services to just what we need for our kid at this point, and I’ve been beef

There are still intellectual property laws in place that could protect the original companies. Non-competes stifle innovators at big companies from being able to leave and pursue their own ideas that are in the same domain as the parent com

I generally just install Ruby/rails directly on my Mac… I’m starting to switch to local rocker-compose for dev, and also for deploying simple apps to single VPS instances. Should I learn Nix? What’s a good starting place to do that?

Capture now, fast. Organize on the fly with searches and filters. I have this whole app sketched up where the idea is you just focus on writing notes and thoughts in one continuous stream, jumping around topics as you go like most professio

It would be interesting to combine the daily routine concept, with an AI chat engine, so the goal is to have daily conversations of a certain length/depth, about random topics, between you and an AI, in your target language.

I don’t understand why someone hasn’t just launched a full blown clone of twitter yet. The decentralized stuff doesn’t matter to basically all of the population. Twitter is not an advanced product concept. A competent team can clone it quic

Would you happen to have that ansible setup on github for others to learn from? Now that docker is actually fast enough to be usable on mac, I'm leaning in the direction of a fast VPS plus docker compose for simple app deploys like you

Not to distract from the awesomeness of this too much, but: what would it take to do the same type of thing but in Ruby? Being able to easily build rails apps around ML stuff would be absolutely awesome for us boring rails guys vs building

YouTube lacks a personality like Facebook/Instagram have. It just “is”. It’s closer to infrastructure than any other social platform out there. Kind of blends into the background as you browse it. Also, there’s a better separation of t

Not to mention asana just isn’t amazing either. It’s such an elementary pm tool given how long it’s been around and how much money they’ve spent, it really makes you wonder where it’s all gone.

So is there some canonical guide to running a docker compose style app on Mac m1 machines that has good filesystem performance? It seems like there’s many ways to approach the topic now so it’s hard to tell which one is “winning”. I’d love

That's actually the only real downside to this system currently, I'm just using a cheap flimsy folder that can't really be used to write on without being on a surface itself. I'd like something a bit more firm, but that
