Laws to make cars smaller and drive slower will do 100x more to make crashes less deadly than fancy electronic gizmos. Not to mention all these electronics make the car much more expensive and harder to repair.

I think its pretty clearly a ploy by the biden regime. It follows the same playbook as the student debt cancelation plot. Use gray areas in the law to do things that it was obviously not intended for, then advertise how you did the thing, a

Man can we just kill these industries? Copyright law is so annoying and its supposed to promote quality...which we get none of. Free youtube tutorials are the best learning resource these days. The GDP hit would be insignificant too, like &

Yeah I don't understand why these lifetime plans are so popular. It is just contrary to basic business logic and feels very scammy. Price of could storage has not really been dropping over the years either.

Strongly disagree. Russia has 54% of people with higher education, compared to us at 44%. In fact, it's the most "educated" country in the world. Bet you didn't know that... Look at how that worked out for them. The valu

That is a bad thing. Making intelligent decisions about career choices is now punished because you have to pay for people who didn't? Yay equity.

Yeah, having to buy something other than the Ford™ Giga-MAX EXTREME FREEDOM F150-THUNDERBOLT for 95k would be awful.

Thank you, central banking for printing money all day to give to investors and making sure to "protect" the markets with timely interventions.

This is false. You have to pay cap gains on anything against the dollar when buying with alt currencies. This intentionally kills the use of anything other than the dollar for transactions. The record keeping for this sort of nonsense prese

If Biden loaned me 1 billion at 1% for a year and then I put it into money market funds paying 5%, I would pay it back after a year and have made 40 million on the side. Everyone wins, even the government profited 10 million!!! Did I just i

ISPs are a good example as well. Hyper regulated in the USA with millions of permits and little laws about everything... Meanwhile in Romania people just put cables up wherever they wanted and had 100s of bootleg ISPs and now they have the

I wonder if this can be turned into an advantage however. Say the development team invests time into writing really good documentation and examples and then feeds it into LLMs and posts a link to a chat bot on their documentation. Much easi

With stable coins and ethereum l2 like arbitum having broad support to transfer them, the payment experience isn't all that different from something like zelle.

Yeah this was the only good thing about zelle...once you got money...you had it. Now there is all this nonsense about how your money could just disappear at anytime in the next 90 days and there is nothing you can do about it. Guess the fed

Plotly might just be one of the libraries that manages to make documentation less readable than matplotlib. API reference consists of 90% autogenerated doc trash 90 pages long.

My preferred solution is rmlint [ https://github.com/sahib/rmlint ] mostly because it also looks at duplicate directories. It produces a bash script instead of deleting anything itself, so you can examine it before runni

Elixir has features called guards which allow you to check for a condition to be true before a function is called(and will match another version of the same function if it is false). This is used as a crude form of type checking.

I remember I2p torrents being horrendously slow, like 20kbps at max(do you even remember the last time someone used kbps as units?) for popular stuff. Has that changed in the last few years?

I hope apple uses that money to fix the windows client. It is the only program that managed to hard-crash my computer(multiple times) in as long as I can remember. Must be some very...talented programmers there.

Does c# have much of an open source community? I get the impression that Microsoft makes packages for everything and those are what get used for everything.
