If you’re a podcast person I recommend Searl’s “Breaking Change” it’s kinda him shooting the shit with himself about whatever, but I find it entertaining and informative. To the topic at hand: I’ve not tried it yet, but I wish I could get m

It’s good that the industry does the right thing sometimes. It’s also good to have strong consumer protections when they don’t do the right thing. The bill that required backup cameras came out in 2008 but didn’t fully go into effect until

Not all auto makers just up and decided backup camera are now a standard feature. Rather: it’s a regulation put in place by Congress. To assume that cars will continue getting the same level of steady safety updates also assumes that the re

I was personally without power for 72 hours in sub zero temps. Every night I went to bed and wondered if my kids would be alive when/if I woke up. You know what that feels like? I can’t do anything to *guarantee* you’ll never experienc

Ive never taken one. They seem nice though. On the other hand, the Tesla “robotaxi” scares the crap out of me. No lidar and seems to drive more aggressively. The Mark Rober YouTube of a Tesla plowing into a road-runner style fake tunnel is

A few months ago I saw one driverless car maybe every three days. Now I see roughly 3-5 every day. I get that it’s taken a long time and a lot of hype that hasn’t panned out. But once the tech works and it’s just about juicing the scale the

I guess you’re saying that the current status is mandated by the design of the grid. Which is true, but that status would be best described as “deregulated” rather than “purposeful regulation.” Lack of regulation and oversite around weather

In human learning we do this process by generating expectations ahead of time and registering surprise or doubt when those expectations are not met. I wonder if we could have an AI process where it splits out your comment into statements an

Not OP but: The very essence of the program was publicity. As soon as the public lost interest (mission accomplished!), the program was canceled. We built Saturn V rockets that we never launched. That being said, I know a lot of things were

The input to output ratio is interesting. We are usually optimizing for volume of output, but now it’s inverted. I actually don’t want maximum output, I want the work split up into concrete, verifiable steps and that’s difficult to achieve

Happy to report that the laws of the universe are still in effect. NPR and PBS were defunded today so I’ll call it a wash. (This is a joke, I’m happy for this change, but also raising that it’s in the middle of a lot of other crappy stuff a

Acknowledge the feelings (or people will think you are sweeping them under a rug), but don’t dwell on them. Don’t over-provide them. Focus on min/maxing the bad/good outcomes. Align people on the outcomes you want. Usually that’s

FWIW I’ve got one. You need over 1k karma I think (or maybe it is based on some other metric). A post with more downvotes than upvotes will show up as grey for me too.

As a crate author a thing I don’t like is that rustdocs are not easily sharable even though the same code might be used in a function, module and readme doc. I took a stab at a JINJA based rustdoc templating solution: https://doc

To add: I saw job listings recently posted on bsky and was enjoying how well written they were. The support engineer role description asked that they be able to fly to a customers site at short notice. That’s a whole other level of on-call

I can’t ignore customer support tickets. Usually the most frantic and urgent tickets are the ones that also provide the least info too. Which is frustrating as it usually adds some extra back and forth which means it ultimately takes longer
