I set up a little neighbourhood pbx this year on an oracle cloud always free instance. Took a couple of days. Any family can buy a WiFi-enabled office phone and I’ll set up an extension for them. It’s working great! My six year old had a 15

I’ve had a couple of weeks of downtime at work, so I decided to incorporate agents into my work processes - things like note taking, task tracking, document management. Your comment EXACTLY mirrors my experience. Week 1 was ever expanding p

Cool, I'm already digging into your stuff, thanks for posting it.

That's a really interesting perspective. I've always taken the elite overproduction thing as an _analytical tool_ to help us make sense of why we have experienced the rise of an oppositional anti intellectual position in contempor

Maybe this is how we get code versioning for Excel. Git LFS for workbook + the following prompt : “Create a commit explains what has changed in the workbook since the last commit. Be brief, but explain the change in business terms as well

I know an Rmarkdown rendered script when I see one! Jokes aside, I have been aware of System Cards for a while, but found them sort of irrelevant. As the tide of AI has started lapping at my profession, and I have found myself suddenly spen

I've got one of these, and it works great! The core developers behind this work very, very hard on it, and I am amazed that it works to the degree that it does. Like, there are cars on the road running with this VCU. Two weaknesses of

The child comments are a bit all over the place, but I can clarify. At present, the Zombieverter supports: Chademo CCS by interfacing with the BMW i3 LIM CCS by interfacing with the open source FOCCCI CCS controller. The FOCCCI CCS controll

Well, if you modify a vehicle, generally you need to take it back to your DMV / TUV / MOT for inspection. Those are the bodies responsible for determining that your car is road legal. And if you don't have a proper BMS, emerg

The D1 board on the Zombieverter is just a piggyback board to allow web interface access to the VCU. Once you've set everything up, you can remove the board. It makes configuring the Zombieverter significantly easier since you don&#x27

I know I'm just talking to myself at this point, but I _finally_ get the meaning of the linked article title. The netlify app is a fork, like a code fork, of the original document. Which is to say, they have taken the original work, tr

by scrappyjoe 2y ago
Well, after all that, it turns out the netlify app linked in the post is a copy of the original PDF! So, if you care about the actual content, just go read that. The PDF does have some cool graphic design though.

I actually asked the author of the original article, which was linked in the article you posted, and got no reply. But I managed to track it down elsewhere. I've thrown it onto my static site, so that it's easy to get to. My under

This reply is quite late, but I thought I’d answer it anyway. When I was a child, I enjoyed the VoA more than the BBC Africa service, and when I was a teen my preferences swapped. I had never really thought about why before. And I had never

Actually, scratch that, the link I posted is to a master thesis.

Frustratingly little actual content in the article, but it links to a new-looking website that is WIP and mentions an original source document that is, frustratingly, only available for download in the US. Archive.org has a copy, here - ht

You have no idea what you are talking about. Until the mid 2000s, if you good good enough grades at _any_ high school in the country, the government would foot the entire bill (tuition, board, stipend) to send you to a foreign university fo

Well, scoped to just Botswana, when my dad was 10, in the 60's, we had just 15km of tar road in the whole country. In the 80's when we moved to the village I grew up in, we didn't have a phone - we had a telegraph address. In

So many strong opinions here from commenters who aren’t actually from Botswana. Let me tell you how we actually feel about it here. We think it’s awesome! The establishment of a university of science and technology in Botswana has been a lo

What country are you from? Is there a link to the agency that maintains the portal? I worked in local government in a unit that was arguing for in-housing developers rather than hiring contractors. That team could maybe learn from your coun

I'm not sure if you are confirming or rebutting my argument. In the future, no whisking. Gossip better be saucy if you want to stick around.
