Hah! I accidentally deleted a production deployment the other day, because I thought it was mucking with my local Colima Kubernetes's cluster. I forgot that I had my context set to one of my AWS clusters. I had been meaning to write a

Seriously, this is why people need unions. People need to be represented so that they don't get fired when trying to fight stupid things. If the camera's backend detection system is so bad wit distracted driving alerts, then they

I'm a remote software dev, and I prefer it. I won't go back to that silly commute garbage so that I can carry my laptop from my house to my cold, lifeless, work setup. If I could work on hardware, spend all day soldering, and buil

I still back Snowden for his original motives in 2013. I will not bother listening to anything he has to say these days though, because I have no idea who is pulling the strings. I have no idea who he's working for, or what his motives

Maybe people could learn what a portable transistor radio is. Maybe they could just give you one with your car. Sell one for $2.99. Is a car really your best option to be in in an emergency? Sometimes you need to get out of that car, maybe

I got into an argument with a fellow Tesla owner on a forum who was screaming their car was bricked after their 12V battery died. All they had to do was replace the battery. It wasn't bricked. I sure received a lot of vitriol for sayin

That's not what is happening here. It uses gravity to generate energy as the mass going downhill is significantly greater than the mass going back up. The mass of the load is used for "powering" the regenerative braking syste

CSS seems like it was “designed” by several teams in an “agile” environment with no plan and simply didn’t consult the people that would actually be using it.

I hear ya. I was so in love with that interface back in the day. I thought it was beautiful. If I have to stare at a screen all day I want it to be attractive. Everything is so flat, muted, and boring now. A button is so much less intuitive

Hah, yeah. I'm silly that way. I don't like that it doesn't have macros. It's not something I need to look into at the moment anyway. I'd probably never find a use case for it.

Not sure what startup time matters for running a persistent service is, and it's obviously tied to hardware. You can get applications up and running in less than second or so (we were using Micronaut to resolve dependencies at compile

Watching the countdown now! T-00:28:12! Will be spectacular no matter what happens! Yes, I'm excited. Not sure how the parent comment has missed what SpaceX has been doing with Dragon, Starship, Starlink, and all the rockets! Amazing.
