The US in particular has many oversized cars. Fuel is cheap, the roads are wide and there is a general imperative to get a car bigger than others for safety and status. If this pollution could be used as a means to reduce sizes to something

As if… Firefox’s popularity and then decline stems from consumer perceptions of functionality and general availability (i.e. marketing)

Reddit mods are often terrible and exploit their position of power. A sub's popularity is invariably because it covers a topic that is popular outside of reddit and through whatever reason (often fortuitous or unrelated to current mod

I guess because future plans could be negated via 3rd party apps. Getting rid of them now will ensure future plans can be enacted without risk they'll be circumvented.

I’d assume if the lid was kept on then there’s little scope for new bacteria to enter the chamber

Gonna dispute pretty much all of that but in particular there are not frequent delays due to suicides.

I use it on a standard spec windows laptop and it works fine… Little bit slow and stuttery in places and definitely a resource hog when screen-sharing but it has a ton of functionality that makes up for it. From what I can figure this is ki

The first hour was entertaining and interesting but as it became more cluttered with fight scenes i found it boring. Maybe it’s just me but I don’t see the appeal of fight scenes where there is no jeopardy or realness. Back in the day Jacki

I look for fun in other things than 'tech stack' but i do find .net more enjoyable to work with than typescript/html/css as it feels more obvious in how it will work.

Based on previous IPOs of internet giants I think Reddit is a good bet but obviously lots of dynamics about the inner workings of cash flow etc that a layperson is only guessing about. One area that seems inevitably would have to change is

Teams has been a phenomenally successful product. It might not work great in all dimensions but overall it delivers in so many ways. To talk of it as broken implies it is there to do one thing (which it doesn’t) however it’s role is multifa

It’s not half and hour a day. More like an hour a week. If you don’t enjoy the process of gardening you shouldn’t do it. Over-engineered robotic solutions for small plots are never going to make much sense.

Don’t disagree with any of that however all the effort is before the robotics gets involved.

Agree. Long-run, a drone type machine may well become successful (flying around zapping weeds) but this is way over-engineered for what it does.

No doubt the tech is interesting but conceptually this is pretty awful. Anyone who has done it knows if you have irrigation sorted there is very little needed for seedlings to grow to full size. Even with no irrigation we’re only talking 5m
