Also you can resell Switch cartridges.

You ever hear of Dubai lamps? Apparently underdriving LEDs makes them last much longer.

Sadly I am a bit hopeless about climate change. Even if every person on earth dropped everything and started making biochar to be buried it would not sequester enough carbon to mak…

>Anyone who cares about security I have something hilarious to tell you about IoT apps

> quitting my fully vested tech job to fuck off and be a cook for a while I am also fantasizing about this and am only holding off from doing it because of the social stigma (what …

I would guess it is to avoid model lock-in.

There are enough crappy win32 applications that you probably should restart Windows PCs nightly.

I hope I am not alone in thinking the military needs to be defunded in the USA. Nuclear weapons mean that there is zero strategic threat and any future wars will be regional. Drawd…

I would guess prevention of using Claude as a pentesting or hacking platform. This could mean that every script kiddie out there would be a massive risk.

I would hope that librarians vet those and exclude them before they hit the shelves :(.

I've starting going back to books, either at the library or e-books. Librarians are very good at telling you if nonfiction is biased, outdated, or incorrect.

You don't need custom built anything, ChatGPT could generate corporate initiatives and PR statements all day and no one would notice.

They did use space tape (Kapton) and epoxy for that weird case with the hole drilled in the ISS.

I'm experiencing a similar thing- company pushes online lectures but don't even think about putting them on the sprint board.

brother I've thought about the tech to blue collar transition too. for me, I would choose plumbing or electrical, but it seems like 4 years of low apprentice wages are unavoidable.…

For what they are worth, nuclear weapons are still preventing large-scale conflict between world powers.

I've started to go low-tech and ask noai.duckduckgo.com first, and then, gasp , go to the local library for some books on my hobbies.

The seed oil panic is quite possibly the dumbest health craze of the decade- I saw a chef saying beef tallow was healthy!

No AI company is addressing the elephant in the room that you need someone experienced constantly monitoring any agentic workflows. This means that the cost savings of agents are a…

There is nothing wrong with forking, and one man's "better" version is another's bloat. Also, making a fork rather than a PR avoids burdening maintainers.

Honestly the de facto standard is to blame: at my dev job, we vacuum up all the packages we need and get the software deployed to production ASAP, then later go over the SBOM and m…

In, fire 30% of the workforce, new logo, out. You are now a fully trained management consultant. (Alan Johnson, Peep Show)

Reddit is more or less dead to me, as the popular subs are botfests and the niche subs are empty. I'm lucky to get a single reply on gaming subs.

This makes me paranoid to buy a new car at this point. I would have to keep every single oil filter receipt and take a video of the DIY oil change.

I'm starting to realize that fixed-price agent subscriptions follow the same profit model as gym memberships.
