Take a deep swig of bourbon from your hip flask before turning on the car.

I keep getting “session lost” when I enter the code.

Nevermind: took 5 tries, but finally logged in.

All the ones that run a separate server are, by definition, putting extra load (and cost) on the receiver.

IMO, they should run either inside the webserver (as an nginx/Apache filter or extension) or at the CDN/WAF level, like Cloudflare.

Also, DuckDB devs said it was planned: https://github.com/duckdb/duckdb/discussions/4512

I read a book. Usually have an e-book or graphic novel queued up. Worse case, grab a paper book and a booklight, set to low. That always works.

9/28. WTF’ing through 90% of the questions.

The whole point of SO was to let experts answer specific questions and build a trusted knowledge-base. Having AI answer questions removes the need for humans to even try answering anything.

These are all great ideas for enterprise (especially training on their internal knowledgebase). Not sure it’s worth their while to have a consumer-facing side any more.

• After 50ft, robot battery runs low, turns around.
• Branch has grown through pipe. Robot gets stuck. Now you have two problems.
• Notice they don’t use it for sewer pipes. Giant rats could take them for joyrides.

There was a core flaw in the whole CPM model. This means the web has to find a different way to fund itself.

Sadly, it will cause a lot of pain, and it’s not clear what will be next.

Just got a bill for “extra” cursor fees. This is on top of Cursor Pro as well as paid Claude and ChatGPT plans.

Guessing they’re going to try to move everyone up to enterprise so they can maximize revenues. It was a fun ride while it lasted.

It’s essentially the Golden Visa, no?

You need a decent chunk of money to renovate, except now you’re living far away from city life (which could be a plus or a minus).

Thr US one is what you get when you spill a bottle of ketchup on the corner of a white duvet you just washed.

Briar is Android-only and BitChat is iOS-only.

Sorry, didn’t realize. They appear to have the best extended recap.

Here’s a shorter version from a different source: https://youtu.be/2LlM4PPGtnM

A friend of the family from Hungary used to bring out home-made palinka in small 7Up bottles to sneak them past customs. He said they would drink a few shots before and after every meal. Said that was how Hungarians became the highest per-capita meat-eating country in Europe.

I just remember it burning all the way down. The recipe I mentioned was more of a sweet liqueur and with lower risk of near-fatal distillation mishaps.

Will have to look into maceration. Thanks for the tip!

My late-father once told me about a recipe he used when he was young, passed down to him by his old uncle.

Got a bunch of black plums (but he said any fruit could be used). Washed them, then put them whole in a big, glass jar with a screw top lid. The fruit was layered with sugar. Lots of sugar. Closed the lid and left it all out in the sun for a month. It fermented and turned into mush.

Brought it in and sifted out the solids. Left a lot of pulp. Mixed it with plain vodka and decanted it into smaller dark bottles with clip tops. Aged it for six months in the dark. After that, kept it in the freezer. 10+ years later, it still tasted amazing.

This post is inspiring me to try again. Thinking peach this time.

I’ve definitely noticed more EA charging stations deployed (especially ones with more than 4 units per location) and fewer broken units. Also, a lot more L3 chargers from the likes of ChargePoint and EVGo.

Unfortunately, most are located in parking lots with nothing else nearby. Maybe some day they’ll learn from Europe and China and make them places you would like to hang out, use a restroom, buy a coffee, or chill out.

Was about to say they need a camera for XR overlays, but they push it as a “live-streaming video” platform.

So, yeah. They can go pound sand.

I always wondered if Gogoro-style batteries, but for cars could be a thing. Doesn’t need to be automated. You pull up, twist and pull out ten ‘pods’ and replace them with fresh ones. Then drive off. Want a quick top-off, just swap out two. Pay for what you use.

As battery density improves, your range goes up too. They would need to engineer the access ports and the battery/BMS interconnect. No need for expensive, automated swap stations. Any gas station, hardware store, or grocery store could have a battery swap wall. Like 7-11s in Taiwan for Gogoro.

Work smart, not hard.
