    > The whole "reduce your carbon footprint PSA" was just a ruse. It is especially true in the context of this war when the US is attacking oil infrastructure which is causing catast…

    That's true. For context, I reside in Canada where good tech jobs fit the definition of the low end of upper class (250k CAD) where I am not sure the same is true in the USA? Regar…

    It is awful, but at the same time this isn't new. People have for a long time used Google searches to self diagnose their issues. ChatGPT just makes that process ever easier now. F…

    Does anyone know what type of camera the stream uses? Or recommendations of an outdoor camera/microphone that could accomplish the same thing? I'd love to do this sort of thing in …

    Scott Galloway had a podcast episode about this topic just over a week ago. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Oeepx2ZLrCA I used to scoff at the idea of the AI-bubble (or any recentl…

    When searching something non-programming related, I do. For example, I'm building an addition on our home. Searching for building materials, ideas, and any building science questio…

    Yes, I know the issue you're talking about. The fix I've found is to always maintain the same grip on the wheel. If you want to change it up then yank the wheel a bit to let it kno…

    I've never heard of this so I've got a silly question - I own a Subaru Outback base model with adaptive cruise and lane keep. What is the difference that this offers?

    It's far from perfect here in Canada, I keep having to pause it or go back and then load it again. Oddly having watched PPV events via the high seas for years, it feels normal...

    I'm curious how much better the printers are these days as I'd love to get another one. I had a Wanhao Duplicator i3 in 2015 and found it required a lot of tinkering and calibratio…
