I used to play the demo of Test Drive III. It only had one map I believe. But I loved that it was a sandbox, so you could drive anywhere. I specifically remember following along the railroad. It was way ahead of its time back then.

That kind of straw man, that consciousness only emerges from electrical signals, is one of the reasons we haven’t reached AGI yet because we keep underestimating it. There’s way more biological, chemical and physical phenomena going on in b

One of my InstantPots uses a standard power cable with an IEC connector. A couple days ago, I couldn't find its cable and was able to reuse my spare power cables for my PCs which was a huge win.

Interesting, it's one of my most cherished tech purchases, and I use it extensively, both as a home console and while traveling. It's beautiful.

Finger was the original Twitter. We used to get updates on Quake's development from John Carmack by fingering his email. He used to write elaborate ".plan" files too, no nonsense character limits were in sight yet. It was mag

I've waited for union types on C# so long that I don't even care about syntax anymore. Just give us something that works. So, I appreciate the effort, I know it's taken at least a decade to get it into this shape, and much th
