    I set up a little neighbourhood pbx this year on an oracle cloud always free instance. Took a couple of days. Any family can buy a WiFi-enabled office phone and I’ll set up an exte…

    I went quite far down this approach last year; you're welcome to take what you want from my repo - https://github.com/riazarbi/way

    That's a really interesting perspective. I've always taken the elite overproduction thing as an _analytical tool_ to help us make sense of why we have experienced the rise of an op…

    Maybe this is how we get code versioning for Excel. Git LFS for workbook + the following prompt : “Create a commit explains what has changed in the workbook since the last commit. …

    I know an Rmarkdown rendered script when I see one! Jokes aside, I have been aware of System Cards for a while, but found them sort of irrelevant. As the tide of AI has started lap…

    I've got one of these, and it works great! The core developers behind this work very, very hard on it, and I am amazed that it works to the degree that it does. Like, there are car…

    The child comments are a bit all over the place, but I can clarify. At present, the Zombieverter supports: Chademo CCS by interfacing with the BMW i3 LIM CCS by interfacing with th…

    Well, if you modify a vehicle, generally you need to take it back to your DMV / TUV / MOT for inspection. Those are the bodies responsible for determining that your car is road leg…

    The D1 board on the Zombieverter is just a piggyback board to allow web interface access to the VCU. Once you've set everything up, you can remove the board. It makes configuring t…

    I know I'm just talking to myself at this point, but I _finally_ get the meaning of the linked article title. The netlify app is a fork, like a code fork, of the original document.…

    Well, after all that, it turns out the netlify app linked in the post is a copy of the original PDF! So, if you care about the actual content, just go read that. The PDF does have …

    I actually asked the author of the original article, which was linked in the article you posted, and got no reply. But I managed to track it down elsewhere. I've thrown it onto my …

    This reply is quite late, but I thought I’d answer it anyway. When I was a child, I enjoyed the VoA more than the BBC Africa service, and when I was a teen my preferences swapped. …

    Frustratingly little actual content in the article, but it links to a new-looking website that is WIP and mentions an original source document that is, frustratingly, only availabl…
