I've ridden an electric unicycle around town. I generally get a few stares but little interaction possibly because I travel faster than a unicycle. In a safe environment, it's a relaxing ride but my current city isn't bicyc

Heh, I always put eggs on the bottom of my bag. Those cartons provide a nice base and are designed to hold a lot of weight. But, I agree, I prefer self-checkout because I can organize the bags as I want them.

Aldi recently switched to self-checkout which is a huge improvement. Aldi had always skimped on cashiers so there was always a line. Now that I'm scanning products myself I see that Aldi products have two large UPC on each box whic

Yeah, it'd be interesting to get details on what was handcrafted input and what was AI generated. Synchronizing audience reaction with the meaning of what "George" is saying seems like a particularity difficult thing for AI

Yep. It used to be only summer that I would be bombarded by noise from the neighbors HVAC equipment. Now it's all year. Winter is worse because defrosting is very noisy.

I uploaded a picture and it listed some sounds that might accompany the picture like "Water flowing in a stream nearby." It took a couple of minutes to generate 6 seconds of poor sounding audio. Seems like using canned sounds wo

I've been househunting in various locales, and judging from when the neighborhood homes were built, it appears to have started in the early 50's. No public spaces and often no sidewalks.

I implemented this a bunch of years ago in a fork of a SubSonic client. Their explanation wasn't sufficient to implement the algorithm but I did figure it out. I did like it. I stopped using SubSonic and now just use the simplistic

A little off topic, but I recently realized I've been stimming for decades. I don't fidget or do any of the standard stimming techniques. What I do instead is explore the space I'm in with my eyes. Like right now, staring

All of them if they reduced their television and Internet consumption. I think a bigger issue is nature isn't so much accessible to many. They paved paradise and put in a parking lot. I'm house hunting and so many neighborhoods

Where does Google Maps get its trail information? Near me, I saw a several mile long trail on national park land that I couldn't find on any other trails site including the national park website. I explored the trail; it exists, has

But then you're still having to fully understand the ORM so you're not saving yourself any work. I'm always amazed at how much I can do in a single SQL query and how much extra code is required to accomplish the same when usi

I completely disagree but of course we probably have not worked on the same sorts of applications so we have no common ground.

The SQL and mapping code is very simple. Getting an ORM to generate queries as efficient as hand written SQL requires substantial ORM study, experimentation, and ongoing tweaks. I've seen too many junior programmers write simplistic

As a software engineer I always kinda enjoyed debugging. It allowed me to use a different skill and mind set than creating designs and implementing them. Not to say I didn't get stressed out debugging. I had one demo while developing

The title suggested to me, and I see other commenters here, that the LLM was doing the chip design which isn't the case at all. So misleading title.

The title is a bit misleading as the first sentence says "to help chip designers with tasks related to chip design, including answering general questions about chip design, summarizing bug documentation, and writing scripts for EDA too

What confuses me on roundabouts is the intended speed. Some are very tight and requires slowing down to 15mph and others can handle faster speeds. Rarely is the intended speed marked. A new roundabout in Brevard, NC has a very tight turni
