    I checked it on a property I own in Temecula CA. It gave me great stats but not being a farmer I didn’t talk know what I was looking at. Tooltips or links to definitions would help…

    I’m not sure why the downvotes. I think the poster is basically saying the same thing as this YouTube-er. I read “Million monkeys” as referring to LLMs. https://youtu.be/DNN8cHqRIB…

    One thing you won’t get with in an LLM is genuine research. I once answered a 550 point question by researching the source code of vim to see how the poster’s question could be res…

    I imagine they’re all gone now. A great example of the free market creating a niche product that was useful and affordable to its customers and the government regulating it out of …

    It’s fascinating to think about the number of PUs (procedural units) it takes to make a modern tool. Something as simple as a modern hammer must number in the thousands and a mobil…

    Several folks have stated that it could be just an app. I disagree. Modern versions of Android on a real phone severely limit what an app can do. It can't run forever, it can't gat…

    As an Android developer and someone who has studied the ASOP internals, I don’t see what the big deal is. If I were going to build custom hardware that has a custom ui then it make…

    If you run the hardware then an Android app can do anything you want it to.

    Great! Brings back memories of descent 1 & 2. I played d1 for hours over the early internet. My favorite level was Minerva and my arch enemy was named “upinya”. Amazing what the br…

    I love the concept behind htmx & started reading the book today. But every time I think about using it, I remember that I'll eventually have to support native mobile apps as well a…

    “Mirza Melo, a veterinary ophthalmologist in northeastern Brazil's Ceará state” Article says she treated them. I doubt they intentionally injured them.

    $100/yr to join a club of fellow California homeowners / home renters who love to camp and are willing to reciprocally allow stays at their home is not bad. Especially if that $100…

    Homeowners insurance covers a lot. If you have more than 30 nites (don’t quite me on the number) of stay then you need arider as well.

    Zip code 90740 has <800 under 5 yo kids. Total cost year 5 was something like $11k for the year.

    I just looked up the cost to sponsor a smallish zip code in the US and it’s surprisingly inexpensive even if you’re not a millionaire or billionaire.
