Always love to see new baseball visualizations. Not necessarily a big fan of AI art, but it's cool how dynamic it is. Some constructive criticism: I think using a real pixel font a…

I was crazy enough to try this as well this year. It would be an extreme stretch to consider me a SQL expert, but I did make it to Day 14. I agree with all the points in the post. …

As someone who lives a few miles from Georgetown, KY, it's important to note that this factory already exists and sounds like they are (partially) re-tooling it to begin EV product…

No, and in fact, it's almost certainly the cause given the huge disclaimer on the linked page.

Not as common on road bikes but backpedaling is used sometimes to set up cornering position/reduce pedal strikes on mountain bikes. E-bikes are still road bikes, and the last thing…

Enjoyed it, I just jumped ship 6 months ago for basically all the reasons you specified. Only thing I can add is that due to the difficulty hiring, you can attract mid-level talent…
