If you really race cars, you'd know that most people show up in their hauler vehicle, not their work daily driver. Also, I said blue collar type business owners. They do circle track and off-road. Not road courses like tech people. A

It was never meant for construction workers. It was meant for the owners of small construction companies. I used to work for a swimming pool contractor. He didn't own a shovel. He made $600k a year. So did his plumber best friend. And

The same one that I make when I stand somewhere and describe what I see. So I hold a camera to do it more accurately. And then I get tired so I mount the camera on a trip setup instead.

I think the poster was saying giving away the models for $200 isn't sustainable for the provider, not that a user won't pay $200 for the latest and greatest models.

There are countless examples, but let's say Ford. Worth $150 billion, $50 billion not counting debt. My neighbors just gave Ford $60k. It'll be a while until my neighbor gives Anthropic $60k.

If you added up all the major AI valuations, it's apparently worth more than products Americans constantly buy and rely on for their main life. So either AI is going to be involved in every Americans life to a large degree, and paying

Whenever I read this I think "why are they even asking? You tell the kid hw and projects are done on the computer and that's it." When I had trouble concentrating and learning 7x8 and random ones around there, my dad made me

After all the stupid drama in the last few years, we loaded Linux Mint Mate on all my parents computers. My mom can't really tell the difference and my dad likes it. If Microsoft is losing 65 year olds, they've got a problem.

I still happily use my 2012 27" iMac for all my work. So I'm with the parent comment.

I use the Costco black and yellow bins in the garage. Have probably 24 of them. I put a strip of yellow or blue painters tape on it, and write with a sharpee a general description of the box. Might just add another piece of tape to add mark

I once read a funny comment about a young guy told by his parents to consider what everything costs vs its value if he invested it and let it compound. 25 year old buys a knife set he didn't really need because it's on sale 50% of

I am really losing faith in hacker news intelligence levels or at least reading comprehension. We were talking about people sueing AI for mistakes. Employees do not get sued by their employer for mistakes. If your employer wants you to dig

I have no idea what you are talking about. I've been employed my whole adult life and I have never seen an employee get sued ft $50k because his mistake caused the company to lose $50k.

Employees often make mistakes that cost companies thousands of dollars. And there's no shortage of stories where employees cost companies tens of thousands and millions. When a construction guy messes up measurements and thousands of d

Im with you, I tow some goofy things with a sedan and a custom tow hitch I welded and installed. But in general terms, limiting people to top 1% of travel distances daily in an emergency is pretty mild.

I was at Costco and ran browserbench speed test on the Neo vs several of the windows laptops. The neo beat them all, even the $1199 laptop. The $500 windows laptop for sale actually performed worse than my 2011 27" iMac running Linux

This might not be correct really, but since my family has less than 1 TB of media to backup, I simply have three 1TB HDDs with copies of all the stuff. I got the HDDs out of all the computers I upgraded to SSDs.

$0.44 A first gen Volt takes 10.3kwh. It also uses electricity to cool the batteries while charging. If you leave it plugged in one a hot day it will cool the battery just for health overall but I'll ignore that. Then, add in the loss

My family with 3 people, two dirt bikes, and a gas generator for camping owns four 5 gallon gas cans. So I alone without trying can fit 80L without even filling up my car.

In California my electricity to drive my Chevy Volt is more expensive than gasoline, if gasoline is less than $5 a gallon. So for basically the last 100k miles I've owned it, electricity was more expensive. The same goes for many plu

100 people will die on American roads today, and another tomorrow. Most of them die because they commute to work because a lower paying job closer, or a smaller dwelling near their job, isn't that appealing. Another portion will die be

I have 30 days of food in my house and I have maintained that since probably 2021. It doesn't mean I will run out in 30 days, since I can still buy food although at higher prices lately. I personally never let it dip below 20 probably.

Professional mechanics might do that, but a home mechanic can get very far one one $200 set, and then another $300 spent over years buying several useful things for each project. I've replaced transmissions, head gaskets, and done all
