I was replying to j_m_b's comment, not the article. But you're right, the article doesn't sound like they vibe coded it.

My wife's Ioniq 5 was hit on the bumper while it was parked. Took weeks for all parts to get to the dealer and cost thousands of dollars because sensors etc. if someone hit my 1981 Volvo 240 the same way I'm not even sure it would

Maybe I'm out of touch with the times, but I wouldn't feel safe riding an e-scooter with custom vibe coded firmware.

> a speaker that emits 30 pulses per second. That vibration pushes oxygen away from the flames Is that really what happens? Wouldn't the fire be surrounded by the same air?

My daughter took a 4 hour train home. She brought money for food. But apparently you can no longer buy food without a bank card on Canadian trains.

I wonder if the convenience of a smart phone makes social awkwardness worse. As in: I'm already not very socially comfortable but my phone makes it that I never get any practice either.

I've always found it impressive that such a small diameter brake can brake so strong. Especially considering it's filled with grease.

A little while ago I bought a 386 laptop. It pretty much had everything wrong with it. Spent weeks repairing it. Best $40 I ever spent.

I believe you. I'm just telling my own personal experience. What works for you doesn't seem to work for me. Maybe I'm doing something wrong? But also: I'm purely doing things for my own pleasure now, so whatever I enjoy

I got out of tech about 5 years ago, before AI really took off. I still do a lot of personal projects and now never use AI. I tried it a bit (only free plans) but noticed how much it caused me to no longer be able to think through a solutio

I'm fixing up a 1981 Volvo 240. It would be wonderful if it could replace my EV one day.

I used to adjust exposure a lot on phones like the iPhone 5s, so I would, for example, get the highlights exposed properly and have the rest be nice and dark. Can't do that anymore, or not as well at least, because my modern phone will

I miss non-computational phone cameras. I remember really enjoying the camera in my iPhone 5s.

When I come home in my car, sometimes my daughter's phone (who's already at home) will connect to my car, and her music will stop in her headphones, and I get K-Pop. What a time to be alive.

I have been wearing my Casio F91W for so long I can't even remember buying it, and I'm not even a power user of this watch (never use the alarm or stop watch). I wouldn't even know what to do with a smart watch. I'm sure

I know this is probably a very naive question, but what is the end goal putting so much effort into getting past ad blockers? Surely, someone with an ad blocker installed is not going to click on their ads and buy the advertised products an

At some point I almost bought a Framework laptop, just didn't click the Order button. I had my address etc already filled in, so because of that I also got that email from Framework this morning. From a technical perspective I guess it

You're probably right. On my 7th gen i7 with 16 GB, which should theoretically be plenty to check my email, GMail's web interface is very slow.

When gas prices went up in the 70s because of fuel shortage, smaller (more fuel efficient) cars became more popular to use less fuel to do the same thing. I wonder if the same will happen with compute, by making software more efficient, and

Same for me. And it's not even rational. Even if I know the information is good, I'm just so put off by it that I am unable to follow.

I kinda stopped doing CW (and ham radio altogether with that). I did quite a bit of POTA hunting but it became too repetitive. And I didn't find something that felt like a small enough step up from hunting. Activating parks felt like t
