Woah. As someone not in this particular community but dependent on these tools this is exactly the terrifying underbelly we've all discussed with the user architecture of tools lik…

There are so many more embedded CAN systems beyond cars. Industrial battery management uses Linux and canbus, for example.

Non-sequitor: "perspective hangover" might be my favorite phrase I've ever read. So much of what we deal with is trying to correct-the-record on how we used to think about things. …

Can you give am example of the most useful prompting you find for this? I'd like to interact with papers just so I can have my attention held. I struggle to motivate myself to read…

I know this comment is effectively a side tangent on a side tangent. but that was always the strangest thing to me as well. I remember in 2012 when I was debating fiddling around w…

I can't believe this isn't a show stopper for more people here. I literally couldn't figure out how use it the first time tried because I didn't know how to comprehend that it was …

Have any more information on the cop camera footage?

"Just do this in a barn you own not a house I own." Someday we'll wonder why we thought it was a good idea to make the need for shelter into an investment vehicle. Until then, I ho…

Not every day a personally relevant story shows up. I've done work in that valley and with Billy. He's a special person and that valley is a special place. For many reasons. RMBL a…

You see, the thing is, it's deeply classist. It's also misplaced outrage. The poors have been doing this for millenia and we still have a society that progresses rapidly and much o…

Imagine being rich enough to buy high end cars every year and worry about OTA updates. What a world.

Understandable concern, but this kind of fervor over this kind of problem feels a lot like the zealots who tear apart Firefox and it seems to be why open source community leadershi…

It's unnerving, especially for open source projects. The idea of open source extends beyond the license. It is as much about the community as it is the software. Discord is the wor…

I mean, since this article is explicitly political and thoroughly interesting context I definitely have some criticism that I think should be stated here. I saw the film and it was…

I'm someone working in the field with weather modelers/forecasters but not a modeler myself. Reading this discussion has been an absolute treat ... The most fascinating thing about…

As usual, everyone is having a different experience. Exact opposite here. I've been on Wayland two years and it's far more stable and reliable and pleasant. Are there problems, def…

Not that you're wrong but researchers are also deeply imperfect. They're rushed, they're given no time to actually improve their work, and the emphasis is entirely on 'good-enough'…

When you measure it like that... something really tingles and puts it into perspective. That also shows how much progress we make with how little money. To put it in units I know: …

If you're a Linux user, "KDE Connect" is actually by far the best desktop interface for texting and more. It's changed how my phone and my laptop interact and I think might be my f…

Ok. This is very cool.

What truck do you have, how did you modify it, and whats your opinion on why it's not more common?
