Even though CompuServe was mostly gone by the time I moved here, its influence on the Columbus tech scene is still felt. You can draw lots of fuzzy cause-and-effect lines from Compuserve to the huge data center boom we are having right now.

You don't have to have Chrome to configure it (the story talks about this). It's configured over a serial interface and among browsers only Chrome on desktop implements WebSerial (and probably other browsers based on Chrome). That

"a niche technocratic movement hyper-obsessed with increasing the supply of housing" convinced people that building more housing will make housing more available? I'm pretty sure anyone can figure that out. The Atlantic alway

"comprehensive security report card" is overselling it a bit, but it's a decent checklist of some things that are useful to consider for security.

I was surprised that when he bought 20 cheap "1 or 2 terrabyte" thumb drives, all of them were frauds. This was on Amazon just this past September.

Not every charge/discharge wears on the battery the same. Staying at 0% or 100% is worse than staying around the middle. Charging and discharging extremely quickly wears more than slow charges/discharges. And high temperatures are

Is it in the CCS protocol? My understanding was that the F150 used a custom extension in order to do its thing where it will power your house. And even they don't feed back into the grid, which would require synchronizing the A/C.

There's lots of talk about grid-scale batteries to shift cheap electricity from solar panels into the night time. But batteries at the periphery can also help a lot because they can just stop charging (like the example in this article)

The death penalty should be abolished. You don't get sentenced to death for harming others, you get sentenced to death for being unsympathetic to the jury (because of racism or, as in this case, because you don't appear to exhibit

I can use a steak knife as a screwdriver but I wouldn't expect it to be good in that role.

This is the main reason we have assertion libraries and don't just use boolean expressions. My favorite test framework of all time, rspec-given[1] (by the late, great Jim Weirich) solved this a different way by using AST introspection

If they really prioritize security, backward compatibility (Microsoft's bread and butter) will be the thing that really gets compromised. It's the right decision for the long-term, but some people are going to be really angry with
