For me it’s mostly battery life. Most bike light batteries are tiny and would require more regular charging if put in solid mode.

Or, "Public has head in sand about plastic recycling." In my city it's public knowledge (even if not well known) that nearly all plastics that get collected on recycling day end up in the local landfill, yet everyone dutifull

Very likely no money was saved by Boeing, composites are almost always more expensive. Maybe someone with aviation industry knowledge can reply, but my guess is adding a trivial timed shutoff would have triggered an elaborate FAA approval a

I used to run 10km per day, and 20km twice a week, which is about 56 miles a week, or 2900 miles a year (with no days off). Definitely doable. Now I’m lucky if I run 10km a week.

Didn’t read the article, but Musk mentioned in an interview yesterday they are specifically not using CAN and are using Ethernet. He didn’t explicitly say, but it seems likely they are using PoE, saving a lot of wiring as you can daisy chai

If I just needed a GPU for learning purposes, is 2xGPUs necessary? Would a single 24GB GPU significantly bottleneck training with any publicly available datasets? Just need something faster than my laptop, but if it takes twice as long, not

I know multiple software devs that play hockey 3 times a week during the work day. They could easily be working 2 full time jobs at the same time, but why would you, if you didn’t need to?

Totally okay with that. I would rather follow independent Canadian media that doesn't qualify as CanCon anyways. Canadian media regulation only benefit existing large media institutions. > Canada's current spat with Google over

Sawdust is unfortunately an actual food ingredient you’re more likely to find in industrial food regulated by the FDA. There’s an argument to be made that the free market, mom and pop/artisanal providers will be of higher quality than

For anyone unfamiliar with the term firelighter, they are talking about fire starters. Are these that widespread that they are concerning? I thought they were mostly for lazy outdoors people. I use newspaper with olive oil to start charcoal
