Oh very timely as I was just having this discussion with a friend recently. With this article and articles like it, the author has an implicit bias toward “less is more” and “low level control is preferable”. Yes in the unrealistic case tha

I've been hearing people take sides in the GNOME vs POP_OS "debate" and have seen mentioned of what happened to Linus - and until reading this I had no idea what was going on. I will say that as much as I like twitter, the bi

This is a great explanation, thank you. (I've never worked at google, and maybe this isn't a problem anymore however) It seems like the "solution" here would be to do for Infra what Go did for Concurrency - build an abst

I’d pay for this if it could run locally. Not sure what it would take to be sustainable but solving this problem is worth at least $20/month to me.

Yes :) I still drive it, it's a 2017 i3. In fact, I did retrofit the 3rd party module (I got the roadtop one) I don't think the fact that BMW _now_ offers it for _some_ cars (and most importantly, not for my car) disproves my poin

I bought a Tesla recently and the biggest selling point to me is that (in theory, it’s yet to be proven for me) you can enable features after purchase. It bothers me that for example BMW literally won’t let you upgrade the head unit to get

I've gone back and forth between consulting and working full time in an office for the last ~12 years of my career so I have a good amount of experience with both WFH and working in an office. I prefer an office mostly because unfortun

I upvoted you, but I heavily disagree with you. Working with people you don't know, don't trust and/or don't like is hard. This hardship can be alleviated by "relationship building" You can also cut down a tree

AFAIK, they pulled it because geohot got an "exploit" running under linux (unlocked the GPU or something, can't remember now) and their reaction was it was too much risk that it could lead to piracy

Why does anyone get to drive on public roads? This seems to be what this entire thread is about. Are you against Tesla owners in particular? I can hit and kill someone in any car with or without driver assist technologies. Are you worried t

I'm pretty sure this is a logical fallacy. In the case of medications it's actually a fairly common situation where a patient has a terminal illness that there is no treatment available for, but you can get it on "the blackma

While I definitely don't want to come across as unsympathetic or uncaring towards those with disabilities, I am quite frustrated by tone of this article. Yes, putting the battery in the floor makes the current ways that disabled peop

The BEAM VM is fantastic but the scope of Kubernetes + docker is completely different. For example you still need a way to get BEAM onto hosts, still need to manage the OS on the host, still need to setup networking, RBAC etc.

I'm really curious what sort of support the retro video game business needs. My (clearly naive) assumption is that it would be as simple as sending them the cartridge and telling them to have a great day, but if you're meeting so

Not disagreeing with you, but from what I've heard, the people who win kaggles are people who can try more things, having a faster card presumably would allow you to try more things because each attempt would take less time.

Wow I remember CableCARD from back in the days when TiVos were popular and Cable TV was transitioning to digital only service. I always felt that CableCARD was an over-engineed solution to what feels like a simple problem - essentially it s

In the case of game consoles though, they're essentially general purpose PCs that are sold to under cost with the expectation that they'll make their money back on game sales. I think that's a fair assumption, and of course i

This is the general problem with committing a crime - the authorities have forever to solve the crime, whereas you only have a limited amount of time in which you can commit the crime and "get away" with it. This is true for thing

Arguably, these goals in terms of battery life / efficiency are already heavily incentivized for mobile developers - and by extension the iPad despite having "high end" processors. For mobile devices, generally, the strategy
