Having tried it the hobby, you have to buy a $175 radio to connect to the PC to be able to play the game in a way that's realistic. A much better intro is to get a little $200 "mini whip" kit off Amazon. Tinyhawk 2 et al. Muc

People are in denial though, which is why we have to keep bringing it up. I kinda wish it was plastered on all billboards. "iPads aren't affecting my kids" kids twitching at the table, meltdown when they can't see the s

Personally, having the buns, lettuce, sliced tomatoes, etc. are a little hassle. I've always find salad ingredients tricky to keep and maintain. Otherwise I would make my own burgers a lot more. (I seldom go to fast food places)

>you pay the same in taxes as the basic income, for a net tax rate of zero I think this is the make believe part. In Australia, we have a goods and services tax of 10% on every purchase, plus an income tax of around 19% for amounts from

that is an interesting point; i didn't know that (about design in grayscale). the issue with "apps are designed with e-ink UX in mind" -- how many stock apps do you actually use? where the manufacturer has control over how it

Thanks for this comment; it's made me think a bit. I read somewhere that "burnout is inverse of purpose" - as in, do I feel purpose in what I'm doing? which I think ties in a little bit with "is the problem space in

The problem with eink phones is that they're largely unsupported / using some OS that I don't trust. I tried using my phone in grayscale mode for a while, but the complete lack of colours makes it difficult to use. I'm w

Idk how far we go into regressions, afaik we don't really have an issue with it... We have a "everybody owns the product" mentality, and so pretty much everyone on the team should know how to use it and where issues might ari

We use hack days (or we call it "spa days" - as in, giving the codebase/product a spa treatment) as a day to fix things up, tidy things that have been bugging you for a while but no one ever got around to doing it, etc. Often

This is my take as well (adding erlang to my list of things along with python/kotlin/go/lua). Some things are just a little *too* different. There's no for-loop, it's just recursion. Pattern matching on the function

This is actually a pretty good take when it comes down to it. I'm reminded of the "businessman and the fisherman" parable. Wealth and GDP isn't everything. And they definitely aren't moral judgements. People don&#x2

The issue with moviepy is that it's looking for maintainers, the original author doesn't have the time to reason about some PRs, and they're undergoing a "v2" rewrite in the process. https://github.com&#x

Do you mean that, each return type should be union'd with potential error types? If there was an error, the value should be meaningless. I don't understand what your complaint is against returning both the value and the error. (Py
