That is an interesting perspective I hadn't thought about. I see relatives constantly throwing phone cameras in baby's faces "look here, look here" the kids are trained to look at the phone/camera. I think of the experience from your daughter here, just running up to her mom wearing glasses - I hear the mass surveillance concerns, I see the pervert/harassment angle, I saw a friend do the "recording a party" angle, but I am just surprised I didn't see something as wholesome as this - thanks for expanding my view.

I believe standard protocol is for the pilot to reduce altitude until they are at a pressure that is fine to be at (<10k feet). Then they can make an emergency landing plan (or burn off fuel as in this case)

I thought that the speed of the air moving outside of the plane had a bigger impact on the pressure imbalance that causes someone to be "sucked out" of plane. It appears that is a false belief, the inside/outside pressure difference is from the artificial pressurization of the internal cabin. I blame a high school physics teacher for the memorable "why does a soft top convertible poof out when driving fast?" question as a preamble to explaining bernoulli for my false assumption.

I haven’t lived in Texas for about 10 years now, anytime my mom comes to visit and she asks “can I bring you anything?” - I always ask her to bring me a couple packages of HEB tortillas. The multiple mentions of the tortillas in this story has me salivating.

I read your statement and my reaction is what you describe is less regulated than sports betting. For example, in sports betting there are laws by major leagues that players can not bet on games they are in. On prediction markets, if someone has insider knowledge, or can control whatever verification source is set for a bet, they can win (I believe there was an article posted earlier about some journalist reporting on a bomb that fell on an area and was pressured to change the wording to say it fell or was bombed). Additionally, as some of the prediction market wagers have weird grey areas, there are predictions that have additional sub text added after a market has been open/wages have been made which completely change the bet - that is just fast and loose and less regulation IMO

Ticketmaster does something very similar to this with their "demand weighted pricing" and it is just so sad that their solution to "scalping" is "let's bring that profit into our platform."

I dont know what I was expecting on the roadmap page after you said it was not a roadmap, but I did not expect to see a whale jumping over a human as part of the "roadmap"

Just adding a pause in the game would be huge! I'd like to pause and come back to it while waiting for a prompt to finish!

To share something different, it is less about what I have built, and more about what I have seen my friends (non-technical and technical) build. In a one month span I have seen a lawyer make a personal red line tool, a sales guy make a custom website for a golf trip, another friend make a 3d printing grid-finity project, a friend make a stl file to print a jig for his table saw, and another friend make a full mobile game. It is just really cool to see these micro-projects be created and shared, not only for the utility, but just to see my friends' childlike excitement showing off their project.

Got it, thanks for the response - I think my honest reaction is shocked by reading this. I was always good at math and it was such a source of pride and sense of accomplishment. In english I struggled, vowel sounds, grammar, it just didn't come naturally to me. I'm a little disheartened by this slide (for lack of a better word) of public school education, especially STEM.

I believe there are some public schools that have stopped giving homework for k-5 completely which is just shocking to me.

Could you elaborate on the reasoning they "strongly discourage math outside of school"? I'm genuinely curious how that would be a stance they take.

Don't you tell me the competition was in New Jersey...

Our high school computer science team did a StarCraft LAN party on a flight coming back from a coding competition. We felt like the coolest kids in the world when we did that.

You don't use AI at all? What is your main justification for not?

100% - I think that is also part of the divide you see online. Devs who work on massive codebases w/ 100s of engineers and see the bugs the LLMs create vs devs who work on smaller codebase w/ small <5 person team.

What an egregious mistake. "exhibits a pattern consistent with an individual operator using the repository as a working scratchpad or synchronization mechanism rather than a curated project repository" - isn't is git 101 to not put creds in git? What pattern do they think this is consistent with?

I think that is the glaring hole here - via an insane number of instruments from the various investments, they can reduce their tax liability (fed and state) to be very close to 0%. I believe a main idea of the wealth tax is to get around the insanely complicated tax code w/ all its loopholes.

Has there been any attempt for some sort of legislation that would allow utility solar or electric lines to be included in that?

So claude.bedrock is where you run if you want complete data privacy, this - claude.aws - is just claude on/in AWS - is that the right core difference?

FYI - Coffee at center camp was canceled as of 2022

Patagonia is up there for me in current day. Let my people go surfing by the founder is a great read IMO

I didn't realize how big the submarine actually was

- Ohio class - US' largest: 18,750 tonnes displaced submerged, 170m long, 13m beam

- Typohoon-class - USSR's biggest: 48,000 tonnes displaced, 175m long, 23m beam

- Oscar II-class (Kursk) - 19,400 tonnes submerged, 154m long, 18.2m beam

Title is a bit misleading, no? You have to have openclaw running on an open box. And the post even says "135k open instances" out of 500k running instances? so a bit clickbait-y

I believe it is by group - AWS started the weekly operations meeting, effectively every service's oncall from the last week had to attend. Then it grew massive, so they made it optional. Alexa had a similar meeting that tried to replicate what AWS did. A lot of time spent reviewing load tests getting ready for holiday season, prime day, and the superbowl (super bowl ads used to cause crazy TPS spikes for Alexa). And a lot of finger pointing if there was an outage from one team. While it probably did help raise the operational bar, so much time wasted by engineers on busywork/paperwork documenting an error or fix vs improving the actual service.

Multiple comments that start w/ "what's interesting about" by this user and very similar formatting kind of answers that question on human vs bot. Weird internet we live in these days.

This is not exactly correct. If you have an M5 Pro chip instead of m5 Chip - I just built a 16inch, M5 Pro chip, it is $400 to go from 24 -> 48gb. An additional $200 ($600 over base) to go to 64gb. So the memory prices change based on chip. M5 Max Chip starts with 48gb of memory.

Roger that - thanks for the OC graphs. In the first chart, the sloping cluster of data points, is that just the max torque output of the engine then? And the vertical clusters at ~950, ~1050, and ~1110 - can we assume those are some sort of cruise control or gearing outcome?

Also, your 28.5M+ miles driven is such a great stat - thanks for sharing this knowledge!

Thanks for the informative post. In America, I frequently see/hear the diesel engines idling all night at rest/truck stops. Smart cruise control that coasts perfectly over the top of a hill sounds great, but if the driver leaves his engine idling for 8 hours so he has ac… feels like that matters more, no? Has there been any sort of push for batteries or solar to power the sleeper cab amenities instead of running that engine while not driving?
