    I thought for sure this would be for f1tv.formula1.com but apparently that's only 134 and I thought that was ridiculous.

    I like to think of myself as pretty well-versed when it comes to hardware and software and even some RF. But this conversation has me hitting search a lot, lol. It's fascinating re…

    Showing its age is also a pretty significant plus, for such a critical part of one's infrastructure. That means it's been beat up on and run through the ringer for a decade plus at…

    Off topic, but I love your username.

    I hope/wonder if it will go the way computers did. We may learn to more effectively build RAM or parallel compute, and use it more effectively, in the coming decade in such a way t…

    I would call it clever. I'm not sure I'd call it genius. When I'm working with data I'm working in a specific set of languages. Usually one. Yeah, other people might be working in …

    Not to mention how many features that used to work have been summarily broken with no indication on whether we'll ever get them back, due to the wholesale replacement of previous f…

    I wondered if it was intentional, but thought I would double down on it in case people missed it. Was the dashless domain really a site (or the site) at one point?

    Bold move leaving out the dash between words a la experts-exchange lol.

    Because I work across a dozen repos any given week, and I have my own side projects I play with as well. It blurs together. Global git hooks are another data source for the project…

    Claudhd It's a user daemon that runs on my machine and exposes a unix socket, and then a bunch of hooks in claude, zsh, vim, etc, that report directory and commands I've run and al…

    Maybe not hand-written, but definitely static, and at least human-reviewed/tested to only allow sending to previously-validated email addresses.

    Or they can move to NY "full time", if I'm understanding correctly, which will likely also improve the city's tax revenue from more of that person's expenses incurring city taxes.

    Now that's a fun microcontroller project idea. An analog dashboard for ram/cpu/whatever. I'm sure it's been done. Edit: https://sasakaranovic.com/projects/diy-analog-resource-monit…

    I have ADHD and have done quite a bit of reading and study on it, so I'm pretty familiar with how dopamine and dopamine disorders work. I've also been in the workforce as a softwar…

    I was talking to some friends about this over drinks the other day. I feel it has the same effects as any drug (or behavior) that triggers dopamine. If I can get a dopamine hit for…

    I'm on board with your gut that this feels more YOLO than careful but to be fair, in the engineering world fly by wire is very much precedented. I'm specifically thinking of the B2…

    One thing you and the OP are not addressing is that most of these modern tactics are also necessitated by the fact that building an air force, navy, or cavalry that can beat modern…

    You know, that's also true. I am where I am because I'm stubborn AF and just keep hacking on things until they work. Maybe one of the biggest differences is just ego, lol.

    Honestly I feel sometimes like about the only thing they do successfully is hacking. Not just in the sense of breaking into systems that are assumed to be secure although also in t…

    I mean, it's a post a week. I think that's pretty plausible. The worst part of this era is just not knowing if I'm reading generated output or genuine human thought.

    Finally, good efficient code is going to get its moment to shine! Which will totally happen because it's not like 80% of the industry is vibe coding everything, right?
