r/fuckcars has members who deflate and slash car tires that belong to vehicles they deem "too big". Do you support that methodology?

No. I'm not talking about the content itself, I'm talking about the firehose of useless garbage, appropriate or not, that's frying their dopamine receptors.

Depends on if the Vision Pro can record well enough to seem lifelike. If it can do both, it will absolutely take off.

I think these things are linked. Either way, kids are having serious issues, so let's roll back the clock and see what innovation causes it. Kids were fine before social media, arguably better.

This is good. Seriously, the damage it does is massive, kids should not be on Instagram, Snapchat, or Tiktok.

The real question isn't being asked: will it be good for porn? I think it probably will, so it'll likely see tons of usage.

Ah, my CZ is a DA/SA with a decocker. I'd recommend it! No manual safety, but you can hold the hammer forward while holstering.

On many guns, switching the safety to the "fire" position exposes a red dot, red meaning "hot" or "fire".

Well, the equation there is simple, as evidenced by the fact that many companies still opt for trade secrets instead of patents.

They are nice for a reason, though. They're a temporary monopoly in exchange for open access to the patented mechanism. They're far better than copyright, basically.

For fun? I did something similar to build a small site for a non-profit. Looks nice, easy to maintain, fun to build.

Theoretically, you could have a single-file SPA using HTMX, Alpine JS, and Tailwind.

I've heard great things about HTMX+Django.

Here's a price chart: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1F5IQOynIawoXiJPVarLD... Notably, as inflation rises, they're still dropping prices. Extremely laudable.

That's my position on it. Sure, it functions better, but you can drop a Tesla into an area it's never seen before and it will drive relatively competently. HD maps are a crutch, and ignoring that produces fragile solutions that ju

They also love sugar water, and if you give it to them they will love you even more.

I put a drop of water on the counter. That was plenty for him.

I had a pet jumper in my first apartment. He would follow me and my wife from room to room, wave at us, and sit by the sink when he was thirsty. We gave him water and called him Steve.

I think home manufacturing of chips is the next mini industrial revolution. 3D printing was the last one, I'm looking forward to seeing where we go next.

So, they're pushing hard to get a budget car out, and are still setting records on deliveries. I'm looking forward to this phase.

I am not an accredited engineer, but I should probably read those guidelines. Thanks!

No, I'm not a machine. I'm the only one who can do the work, so maybe listen to me when I tell you it's a bad idea.

Longevity refers to battery degradation over time, and cost refers to the cells themselves.

I am a farmer who spends my 9-5 writing websites, often in PHP. I'm the farthest you can get from a techbro, and you'll find no apology or regret here, because I don't care if you're offended by me being "unclassy&q

Ah yes, the fraud who caused the EV revolution and has the highest loyalty car brand in the US, and also created the best-selling car in the world. I'm not going to pull up the rules, but this breaks at least one. Please argue in good

This misses the point of the Tesla UI, which is to not be needed. Everything Tesla does is calibrated to minimize interaction with the perfectly functional UI. I don't want Apple forcing their excellent design sense down my throat, I&#

It translates to price, speed of innovation, and overall quality. Tesla beats everyone at $-per-mile of range, there are no refresh cycles, and the cars, ignoring fit and finish, are phenomenal. Adds up to a serious advantage.

They created a sex symbol which manages to include surprising practicality and insane technology. I've been excited about many concept cars, and now I get to buy one, and I know I'm not alone. It's a halo product, but a good

It's easy to say with a smile an a laugh, but definitely depends on your organization. I do tell people almost exactly this in my solo dev role, but more win the context of "I literally don't have the time to redo this, so le
