I have a Volkswagen ID3, I love the adaptive cruise control. Yes, it gets it wrong in some spots (signage isn't great here in Asturias, Spain), and it gets it wrong in both directions (too slow at certain locations, too fast in others

I just tested. I'm 99wpm on a splitkb.com Kyria split ortho and 102wpm on the built-in keyboard of my macbook, doing a single run on each on monkeytype.com. Switching layouts (e.g. qwerty to dvorak or colemak) takes a long time to get

I think of stickers as partly a theft deterrence mechanism. I expect a thief is more likely to steal a laptop with no stickers, because naively I assume the resale value is higher (no idea if that's actually true). Losing developer pr

My understanding is that melatonin helps you fall asleep, but doesn't help you stay asleep. In general, I have no trouble falling asleep, but I typically wake up once or twice at night and am usually unable to sleep more than 5.5 hours

Google nowadays just seems afraid to store personal data. Google have moved your maps history/timeline to be on-device only, seemingly in response to geofence warrants. They're also deprecating health (Google Fit) APIs, and movi

My experience is the same, git-annex just doesn't work well with lots of small files. With annexes on slow USB disks, connected to a Raspberry Pi 3 or 4, I'm already annoyed when working with my largest annex (in file count) of 2

You don't need a max subscription to use Claude Code. By default it uses your API credits, and I guess I'm not a heavy AI user yet (for my hobby projects), but I haven't spent more than $5/month on Claude Code the past

Many countries in latin america still subsidize gasoline, so EVs just aren't as viable here compared to e.g. Europe where gas is taxed significantly. (anecdotally, Chinese cars are pretty popular here in Ecuador, but they're fossi
