I love retro UIs, and this one even more, because of course it reminds of Turbo Pascal, which was so cool.

Great job!

It seems the OP agrees with you, and he's proposing a method for how to do so using agents.

Definitely, the cow isn't free.

Especially given the hardware has no moat and there are a zillion IR transceivers on Aliexpress. It's not a good market.

ad-block whack-a-mole diagnostician that is being done as open source community efforts now: NewPipe for mobile, SmartTube for smart TVs etc. All you have to do is update them once in a while

On the contrary, this gives me hope it's possible to create value for people even when you compete with hundreds of free Youtube playlists. This is good!

I bet the two sources won't agree on what values go into the denominator and / or numerator of their effective tax rate calculations. It can be as simple as the 3.5% being a calculated rate on revenue rather than profit

For inspiration, check out Ben Katz. He worked on the MIT Cheetah and electrified the Boston Dynamics dog

He designs and machines parts, designs SoTA electronics like motor drivers. Applies robot dynamics, material science, control theory

A user provided location cannot be trusted for geofencing purposes. A GNSS (GPS or other) is needed sooner or later. This is a legal requirement for sanction and regulation enforcement (US, if not others).

I have escalated this through my many friends in WWDR and SRE at Apple, with no success. Ouch. If he can't get it fixed, it's scary

While humans have historically mildly reduced their working time to today's 40h workweek, their consumption has gone up enormously, and whole new categories of consumption were opened. So my prediction is while you'll never live in a 900,000sqft apartment (unless we get O'Neill cylinders from our budding space industry) you'll probably consume a lot more, while still working a full week

Le Parisien (a big French billionaire-owned newspaper) They're all billionaire owned. As an example, left wing newspaper Liberation has Kretinsky among the owners

I'm impressed you could train a dog to cleanup toys! It's hard enough with humans.

Heat pumps work as aircos

In France, tax credits were denied for air-to-air heat pumps that could also cool (which they all can).

CF will cooperate with UK authorities because they're not in 4chan's business.

Cheetah robot can run 10.3 km with a 3 kg (465 Whrs) LiPo Battery

the 33kg robot runs at 22 km/h (6 m/s). The total power consumption from the battery pack was 973 watts and resulted in a total cost of transport of 0.5, which rivals running animals’ at the same scale. The 76% of total energy consumption is attributed to heat loss from the motor, and the 24% is used in mechanical work

Cheetah was the robot built by Ben Katz, which then went on to electrify Boston Dynamics' dog.

Given we've had no major energy density or motor efficiency breakthroughs since 2015, I bet the above still holds. That's a 30 min run at full throttle BTW. So to escape the current killer bots, try to run above a 2h marathon pace for 30 minutes.

Google's gemini-cli offers the most generous current free tier, 2500 daily requests. I'd recommend checking it out, since mostly everything said about Claude Code applies to it too

Some people are above the law. In a country ruled by laws, that's bad.

It does limit, but I suspect a lot less for the rebuilt from ground up biplane, than for a certified for airline service aircraft (a commercial airliner).

countries on the eastern end of the EU look ready to make that trade without hesitation

I don't think so, there already are populist opposition parties in most of these countries that want 1. their country to be more pro-RU 2. to keep the welfare state for their populist supporters going

The planned AUKUS submarines have no nuclear weapon capabilities. They're nuclear powered attack submarines that use conventional weapons.

A coup by whom against whom ?

That's weird, because France has a higher rate of homelessness than the US. The French average, 45/100k pop, is comparable to NYC.

Italy is much lower at 8/100k.

That sounds lovely and my guess is that order-of-magnitude estimation was the tested skill

The environment suffers more, because the very rich consume a tiny fraction of their wealth, investing the vast majority.

When someone else poorer gets a slice of that wealth, they'll inevitably consume a much higher fraction of it.

My old fantasy of "scan an NFC tag and it brings up an UI on your phone to do things to the machine bearing the tag" applies here too.

Easily add a control panel to machines that can't easily have one (because of cost etc). Or a debugging panel for improved UX over the usual "three LEDs giving you a code you have to look up in the user manual".

NFC is better UX (less user taps).

For an easy PoC, make an NFC tag that connects you to an SSID and opens the captive portal usually used for Wi-Fi auth as the control panel.

Not at all, the chemical industry also can do this.

Worse, we store untreatable chemical waste forever (see Germany's many chemical waste dumps), unlike nuclear waste which will eventually become safe.

FWIW the ad free costs 2EUR / month in Europe, which is very cheap compared to any other subscription.

I think the claim that all working fluid put into an AC ends up in the atmosphere is correct for now. Most AC decommissions I heard about involved venting the gas to the atmosphere. Given the high cost of labour everywhere, the zero labour option is the one we must expect.

There's no country AFAIK that sanctions AC equipment owners or anyone else for not disposing properly of all their working fluid at the end of the equipment's lifetime.

This one, making reverbs, at least is taught in signal processing classes in EE courses
