   Thanks for sharing this! It's fun to see the intersection (pun intended) of geospatial and XR. I guess I can see the logic in Apple insisting on calling it Spatial Computing as that name covers geospatial information systems as well as

   It's not that simple as "TBM is better" as others also have chimed in to say here. Real life example underway now: there's an SFPUC project in SF Mission district to improve stormwater drainage. City proposes TBM but thi

   Yes just like the design of car infotainment systems -- looking good resulted in the touch screen era. Luckily we're finally realizing our mistake and a few automakers are putting old school knobs back in.

   I understand the sentiment but I view LLM and generative AI as tools to explore the possible idea space. A human can do this manually, it just takes a long time. But the output is the same either way. Therefore you're reduced to an arg

    I think this is a case of wishful spreadsheet thinking. The numbers go up in Excel, must be good!

    A turbine is a huge magnet that turns right? I think it’s heavy. But maybe a spinning thing could transfer the rotational energy down the line and the turbine can be ground based. I’m sure these people have discussed all of this

    Yes but I would argue geometry is not niche it is the foundation of reasoning about the physical world not just math problems

    I agree and love the electrek dude and his Chinese import mini truck, but automobile companies are trying to make money. Selling a plastic molded macho truck for 90k fully loaded is a high ticket item with relatively good margins compared t

    Funny, 10 years after running a startup powered by Django I still think of the admin as one of the most functional “out of the box” features of any framework I’ve used. Didn’t matter that it wasn’t “beautiful!”

    In a dense city car ownership is a financial trap. It’s a depreciating liability whose use is extremely limited by available real estate (normal people use the terms traffic and parking). (Also the number one killer of kids.) Lack of owners
