Well you can go in the direction of Cory Doctorow's Attack Surface where self driving cars are hacked to attack people, or openBSD is the OS of self driving cars and crime only receives placid self driven transport from the nice self d

Yes and how we here on HN have a front row seat for these brand new repos (no shade on OPs project) Hold on to your crypto/fiat credentials ladies and gents! I bet the anti virus labs are having a hoot in this LLM enhanced craze.

I can spend more on a phone then I did on my last car, although I pay half my car's purchase price every year I pay for insurance so I shouldn't be bragging!

It's counter intuitive in the way that the price of fuel has gone up over that time (causing prices on many things to rise because most things have a little oil in their price tag due to production and transport etc.), so in terms of b

I think one thing about git needing rust (or python or Perl) is that each language dependency adds another good sized chunk of storage for the language and its tools/packager, I have a relatively light project using Tauri Svelte and co

I believe there have been a number of crusades started around people's behavior and usually get a code of conduct book thrown at them. I remember a notable Python dev who had this happen to him, over sharing some humor from an old SNL

I think what will keep the industry afloat, all else failing, is the surveillance industry! Nothing like a fat reoccurring cheque from the government to check if little Jimmy is committing thought crime!

Or worse the waymo gets put in to 'gang mode' by someone bribed on the inside, the car rolls the window down for the drive by, delivers the duffle bags of drugs, auto darkens the windows for a drive by kidnapping, think of the UX

I've had a few over the years, currently I have a 36’ steel sailboat, it has a lot of insulation so it's cosy in the winter. I live ashore at the moment, but for 1 person 36' is too big even. I can shower with hot water (prop

That is a positive progression for sure. I guess it sounds like RCS is gatekept behind a play store API on the android side so there isn't an open source solution quite yet? Mostly I'm lamenting that even with signal there's

SMS is a defacto carrier tech that people expect to work, people also don't expect e2ee or any kind of privacy scheme on SMS but it might be a place to hand communication off to a different tech. Whereas RCS leaks meta data to the goog

Every bathtub I've met has an overflow drain near the top, although maybe that drain is smaller then the output of my faucet, good thing mine isn't connected to the internet :D, YMMV.

I've lived aboard boats for about 17 years of my life, I feel more comfortable squished into a boat then living on land, the sounds and movement are somehow reassuring. When my family moved ashore I got my first PC and I would host LAN

I check a lot of those boxes, Abe Simpsons said it best [0], but I get to keep a weather eye on the new lingo through my kids. I remember being a teen and a lot of jibba-jabba that followed, stuff that came up from my people didn't sti

Flavored yoghurt is often candy adjacent, but sneeks under the radar as a health food "It's probiotic!"

Yes, the water resistance is what keeps my phone from dying if I go for a hike in the rain or a small splashy boat ride, replacing the water damaged motherboard isn't as sustainable as buying a used flagship phone from an earlier time.

Family court type things as well. I notice friends I have who are highly effective in big orgs can take care of themselves with mental health days on the regular. I've too often found myself in a role where the company 'needed&#x2

I also see kindness and concern on here, we get what we give! It's a thing to glom onto drama, and in this attention economy it's easy to fall down a dopamine spiral, even on a algo-lite platform such as this. Hello my name is sel

The last time I had salmonella like food poisoning in Canada was likely a plate of vegetarian linguini in a small town restaurant. Could be someone grabbed my plate while processing meat or who knows... Meanwhile our food regulation folks a

For what it's worth people say Facebook helped get trump elected (through use of targeted campaigns using FBs analytics/targeting) the book Carless People covers it a bit, among many other distasteful happenings at meta.

Seems to me that it's a challenge to make an apple account without adding a credit card to your account as well. A carfully chosen Linux distro (so many options!) is the way to avoid the brunt of these privacy issues, lots of open soft
