I really enjoy the way this is put together. I have written a number of javascript game engines, to play with over the years, and this hit a really nice spot between, I need to thr…

I generally agree with the thesis here. Adjacent points: I also think that selecting mature projects for your dependencies matters significantly. My old couchdb or early node work …

I think the issue is that when you look at it from the modern perspective of profit the economics don't work out. If look at it as a way to spend huge piles of money to subsidize a…

That's the dream here in the states too. Our issue is that we have built our cities as enormous suburbs with such a low density that rail/transit isn't viable from a cost/person pe…

While micro plastics are a problem climate change is the train coming down the tracks at civilization as a whole. I agree the EVs don't fix everything they are in theory buying us …

What is the advantage here vs a polarization filter and a standard camera?

At cold temps you lose range a few different ways: First heat in an EV isn't free, this is usually where it gets you. People get in go "oh man its cold" and crank up the heat and t…

I have to say that the "fun facts" included here are actually pretty cool. They are exactly the sort of thing one would want to use to explain the whats and whys of the ship to you…

I think the key here is mostly to go slow. Right now,if I'm bike commuting I need to keep up with cars or risk getting rear ended or tailgated or shouted at. Setting things up so y…

This is the fundamental problem. One an individual basis moving to a 8k square foot house in the suburbs is the thing to do. For the aggregate this means the mass transit gets wors…

As city dweller, I really would like less parking in my city. Turns out surface parking is a better $/sqft than garages once you count maintenance. This means that the core part of…

I have js disabled by default on my phone for these reasons. It also eliminates most the incredibly annoying bits of the web: cookie banners, modal dialogs asking me to subscribe t…

I actually think we should also include a hood height limit. I would be for a CDL for any vehicle that is tall enough that an aver age pedestrian standing on the street cannot see …

The city I live in added "transit oriented development" a few years back along with a bus rapid transit along the same area. The results appear to be a full bus, the whole sale rep…

As someone who is not at all excited about passkeys, I think they are just moving the average user into an existing enterprise. The enterprise being whatever Big Tech Company you t…

I believe that vs code is the way they want you to do .net on windows as well. The tooling is all CLI based anyway so do what feels best. :)

I thought the biggest driver in The USA for truck v pedestrian deaths is the hood height issue and not really weight. There just isn't enough difference there to matter while hood …

I have been really tempted to sit down and write a ot version of edotor.net so more than one person could edit a graph at the same time in a meeting/ discussion. We have been trial…

What is the advantage here compared to cert auth which is already supported in most browsers? Aside from ease of installing a client cert.

Oh man, That is 100% amazing I am considering buying it for the pure unadulterated sillyness. It's like a v8 motorcycle.

This is the way. INSERT INTO [FROM] ([SELECT], [WHERE], [EQUALS]) VALUES( 'WHY YES', 'IT DOES', 'WORK')

It's a crisis in the sense that we, the industrialized west, are blowing past all the guard rails and in the name of comfort and profit. The crisis is that somehow we can't really …

I also think that it's important as a remote worker to set boundaries and communicate them. It's really hard to know when you are working from the other side of the monitor. So, yo…

As someone who has been tooting the ev horn for a while, generally most arguments against EVs are couched in "I do x now and don't want to change" or they are I heard about x and a…
