Funny timing - I was just on a call yesterday about renegotiating our enterprise Vercel contract. The Vercel employees on the call were very friendly, and did share information whe…

The new design looks great, and I always love following Troy's updates (although sometimes with semi-morbid curiosity). I do find the timeline to be a little confusing- it seems to…

I spent a day or two last week trying to get ffmpeg.js working and it was nothing but headaches. If you had more luck I'd love to learn some details. My use case: trim and append m…

Sunnyvale does this! The "Sunnyvale Materials Recovery and Transfer Station" (SMaRT Station) is out by the bay, and there is a waste water treatment plant right next door. Methane …

No donuts on the 7:35 from Oakland this morning, tragedy.

Semi related: Does anyone have a good tool for keeping lists of books and links and things to save for later? I always end up bookmarking things and they get lost in the large blac…

Not technology, but a great video for absolute beginners who want to get into drifting, or just improve their on-track car control. "The Drift Bible" with the Drift King, Keiichi T…

Watching the video, '2019.5.15 - Try 2' is interesting. You can see the car moving normally, then it starts to follow the black crack in the road and moves to the right- at this mo…

AFAIK many times it's a requirement of the platform/sponsor/etc that it must be disclosed. I appreciate it as well.

Me: "Wow [myfirstname].dev is available! I gotta get it!" Aaaaaaand its $11,500.

I'm not sure how closely we should analyze this footage. Its relatively low-quality dashcam footage, and I highly doubt its representative of what the car "sees" and what a human w…

This is pretty similar to saying, "I don't rent cars, I just steal them." You're buying things, keeping them for Even if this is allowed/legal, it isn't exactly moral.

Honestly I'm mostly interested in the centrifugal brewing system. 85-90C doesn't seem very low to me, maybe just below my brewing range across methods (192-204). Sounds like your c…

I used Racket in my Programming Languages class at Cal Poly. Took a while (a long while) to get my head around it, but it ended up being pretty fun. Haven't been able to convince m…

Shure SE215s. Not all that expensive, but for the price they're an amazing IEM. You can also get a cable that has a mic/remote in it.

I love stuff like this! Similar to the "Restoring Y Combinator's Xerox Alto", the mix of software and hardware hacking is just awesome. Anyone have any suggestions/recommendations …

Every piece of available information can be used to track users. Why not just give the option to disable it? I can see valid use cases for a site knowing your battery % (e.g. havin…

Only your fourth? ;) Definitely my favorite show.

I don't see this as an "art project" as much as a fun experiment. This just shows that good producers and promoters, and having an "in" can often get you on the same level as legit…

Is there a difference between a conscious being and a being who has been programmed to believe it has a conscience?

I love stuff like this, I just think its so cool. Similar to this are the large cement arrows across the US: http://www.cntraveler.com/stories/2013-06-17/transcontinenta...
