iOS has Narwhal 2, as well. It’s got its own subscription to defray the API costs but it’s a reasonable price.

I’m starting to think we need weight limits on standard passenger vehicles so that designers have a constraint to work within. Of course there should be exceptions granted for commercial and similar usage, but I fail to see the logic in all

They’re doing highly specific tasks where the intelligence can come from the designer of the algorithm. In particular, JPEG has intelligence encoded about how graphics are displayed, what detail we won’t notice is missing, and what artifact

That’s a quick dismissal. If I weren’t already a Pokémon fan I wouldn’t have bothered with Palworld, because I don’t care much for Ark (the game whose loop it largely duplicates). And the fact that Game Freak can’t seem to code a mainline P

From the docs on zed.dev: "copilot": { "disabled_globs": [ ".env" ] } I imagine * would work there too. I don't see a way to disable all the collaboration features, but it do

Lower cost, simpler process, and marginally lighter weight come to mind. But the trade off doesn’t seem great for the consumer (and the weight is truly negligible on a heavy EV). The other poster had a good point. A marine-class alloy would

That was the exact thing that just went through my head reading this. “…they didn’t clearcoat it?!” Tesla is great at batteries and wheeled computers, but man, they have some serious blind spots when it comes to building vehicles. I wonder

I realized at one point that the math associated with Brook’s Law—ie the chance of project failure scaling to n(n-1)/2, the number of communications paths between n people who have to cooperate with each other to achieve the result—pro

In retrospect, you all did a decent job of evenly responding to my spicy comments. I will admit I assumed at least one of my direct responses was from someone involved directly with the development or design, or I probably wouldn’t have tak

Yeah, I wasn’t super-thrilled with their response. OTOH, I eventually came back to using it, my (arguably justified) snit in that thread notwithstanding. I kept trialing alternatives like VimWiki, Joplin and Logseq, but everything else is e

Well, we’d be rebuilding it a lot.

Echo still syncs with AnyList fwiw. I have an Alexa list called “Grocery” that does a 2-way sync, and use it to accelerate my online Safeway orders via AnyList. You can sync to the default Amazon Shopping list too, but I find it works bette

I’m surprised they included the Esc key in the touchpad at least. That was the deal breaker for me on Apple keyboards. I could deal with the F-keys being a touchscreen but I use Esc way too much for muscle memory to not work. In practice I

Turing Complete is a great game. Finishing it was a major sense of accomplishment for me, particularly since I rarely complete games (though Zachlikes are a common exception). This is from my Steam review (one of two ever, I liked it so muc

Their service is selling you a dashboard over your genetic data that’s continually updated for new gene correlation studies and ancestry matches. It’s not really the one and done “Promethease” style analysis service you’re thinking of.

There's a really good cryptic crossword trainer on mobile ( https://www.learncrypticcrosswords.com/ ) that teaches you how to recognize these sorts of hint words and parse the clues. It costs a few bucks to unlock all

That's pretty interesting. I was around back then and hadn't recalled that there was such a lynchpin issue, but that makes a lot of sense as to why it suddenly hit such a hard stop. Were you able to support WhatsApp with KaiOS, or

Can’t speak for ST, but did they ever say the babel fish understood languages it never heard before? I thought the galaxy was just exceptionally well-cataloged, given the HHG itself, and humans were hardly unknown.

I'm hoping the 800V architecture at least leads to Tesla supercharger stations my Ioniq 5 can actually use after NACS takes over. The current 400V architecture would charge even slower than the raw math would imply, because it requires

I heard similar grumbles from Hyundai dealers around San Jose, CA, re: the Ioniq 5, and that model got a lot of accolades and is frequently recommended as an alternative to the Tesla Model Y for its category. I'm not sure what's g

Turbo Pascal was the first "real" programming language I learned past 6809E ASM, structured basic flavors and batch/shell back in the very late 80s. When I went to college for CS in the early 90s, they were still teaching the

Unless it's calmed down since launch, PS5 noise is all over the place. I don't usually hear fan so much as coil whine on mine though.

IIRC, that one and a number of other lower-level “WTF” APIs were introduced for Firefox OS. They made a little more sense in the context of providing an interface for mobile phones using the browser stack.
