i hear that's why Tesla paint is so soft, and why it's so popular for Tesla buyers to apply expensive protective film to their paint. I didn't believe anyone when they told me, and now i have more scratches after 1 year tha

if you own a factory and the legislators make your factory illegal, that's a ban. "well you can just upgrade" is no consolation. one day your factory is allowed, the next day it's not. Why mince words?

so the story is about a silly law requiring bike lanes and handicap curbs and your proposal is to kick everyone out of their homes and remigrate them into the cities? ADA code is insanely expensive. We did a couple blocks of those silly dim

> "AI tools lead to worse productivity" > The subjects are using ChatGPT 2.5 and copy-pasting code. The reason AI hype seems to be so bipolar is that "AI" isn't one thing. Hundreds of models, dozens of tools.

that's the short-term, MBA-style mindset to which I'm referring. Much of the popularity of MacOS came from the open source community filling that gap despite lacking support. So there is clearly demand that the PMs were not tapp

Exactly. And it’s great to move code around without having to add keys to GitHub/gitlab. Wherever you have ssh access you can push refs , build and deploy. Great for embedded systems where you may have dozens and you don’t want to a
