The Wallet app prompts you to set this up when you initially add the transit card too, IIRC.

Same in Berlin. I think the reasoning is that it'd cost more money to fit ticket gates compared to loss of revenue from fare evaders. Makes for such a smooth journey as most people are doing the right thing.

The premise of that article is neat, but it looks to be entirely LLM-generated (in addition to the header image) that it’s almost impossible to read.

I wrote a rudimentary autopilot in Go that used a Kalman filter to maintain straight and level flight. It was a fun exercise!

Nice! I’m writing in C this year too, although I’m very much a beginner in C. What kinds of optimisations have you had to do? Are you hosting your code anywhere?

I love browsing the Strange Loop channel on YouTube. So many interesting topics that you wouldn’t normally search for!

Yes, but you'll also need space for a rack and contend with noise, heat, and electricity usage. Don't get me wrong -- I love my Dell R730xd but it's definitely a commitment.

I'm disappointed that the three photos in the Gallery with the laptop in use aren't actually showing what the screen would look like IRL; they've been cleverly doctored by overlaying screenshots on top of the display.

Thanks for posting! Gave me a good chuckle at the beginning of my day, and I miss tiny projects that don't need to aspire to be the next big thing. Although, I'm not sure if the game or some of the comments here is more entertaini

I found out about this book through the EmbeddedFM podcast [1]. Their latest episode is an interview with the authors of the book. Highly recommend the episode, and the podcast in general for folks that are into electronics. [1] https:&#x2

What kind of company were you working for? I've lived and worked in Melbourne my whole life and complacency is not a cultural attitude of the location, but of specific companies.

Have a look at CDKTF [1]. It’s a wrapper around Terraform that lets you use CDK-style semantics that compiles down to a Terraform plan. Every Terraform provider can generated into a CDKTF library. [1] https://learn.hashicorp.com&

I'm looking forward to the improved editor experience as gopls is now workspace-aware. There's a couple of repos at work which contain multiple Go modules (each in their own subdirectory, with their own go.mod files). It's a

We've gradually been having control of the software we use wrestled away from us. The (unfortunate) idea is that network latency will be low enough, and rendered interfaces will be good enough, that companies can make "streaming s

The hardware will probably have the capabilities to do so, but I can see consumer software reaching a point where much of the compute is performed remotely, and we're just being streamed a rendered interface.

I've just started my first semester of OMSCS and planning to stick with a single course per semester, and skipping the summer semester to give myself a break. Not sure if I can manage more than that + work, and also being able to enjoy

This is really cool! I've used an app called PhotoPills to plan landscape photo shoots in the past. It lets you drop a pin on a map and shows you the direction of sunlight at any given time of day. Shade Map gives me so much more fidel

The macOS Finder still displays Windows machines on the network as CRT monitors showing the BSOD I believe. I’m not in front of my Mac now so can’t check.

I've enjoyed the video course from How a Car Works [1]. They assemble a complete car from scratch, so you get to hear and learn about pretty much every component. [1] https://www.howacarworks.com

Very interesting idea, I'd love to see where it goes! This reminds me of Square's Racket DSL [1] for making OpenAPI tolerable, but perhaps a more pragmatic approach. The team I worked with in my previous job built a lot of tooling
