Flip side of heating could be to lower the temperature of freezers. If the energy is free anyways.

Not in love with the “big boy” from factor but when I believe they’re going to enter “long term support” territory I absolutely would be interested.

I don’t really care what they look like. If any truck actually could meet the promises these made, I’d buy the shit out of them:

-All electric

-Sophisticated sensor suite to improve operational safety

-Working performance comparable to F150

-low maintenance

-Can be used as home power backup

-not a Deathtrap

-not a Killing machine

It hits the electric points, but that’s it. It’s a bad truck. It doesn’t fulfill any of the “smart” promises. Death trap killing machines in constant recall that can’t handle rain… Let alone do work.

The aesthetic doesn’t even make my list of complaints. It’s like the whole industry has been trying to make trucks as shitty as possible for like 30 years. Give me a '94 ranger electric conversion kit and it’s game fucking over cyber truck.

Whisper is fantastic and has different sized models so you can zero in to what gives you the best mix of speed/accuracy for whatever hardware you’ll be running it on

Considering he asked twitter programmers to print out their pull requests Im not even sure he’s not cosplaying a programmer

Yeah I got a pretty nauseating explanation of “The June 4th Incident”

In the last hour? No

Edit: never mind

Where I am the charging infrastructure is terrible and electricity prices are bad. I was considering a hybrid but I guess if it’s no better I’ll just grab a regular ICE

I’m getting some new panels installed this year, and I think they’re suggesting they’ll be at 80% after 25 years.

It looks like there is disagreement between the title and content of the article. Title says 75.9, content says 79.5

Either way, does this suggest that new panels might do better than expected over a 30 year timespan?

It won’t be too long before it’s this AND the mess they make every time they eat.

Prioritize an easy to clean high chair don’t make my mistake.

Shorts apply downward pressure to the market price, so not sure how well thought out the plan is.

I am also committed to not learning things, and am very proud of that!

None of the other candidates had a chance at winning. That is not the same as Trump having a chance at losing.

Did it work?

Really curious about the tool they used to quantify “toxicity/disruptive” comments. My initial suspicion would be that political commentary, regardless of human-perceived toxicity, might be biased toward “toxic” by an automated sentiment analysis.

In short: I am suspicious that automated tooling exists to reliably distinguish between toxic and non-toxic political discourse.

for whatever reason

Flashy sleek shit gets invested in.

Outside of business specifically oriented towards people with accessibility issues, the energy just doesn’t translate into VC.

Companies who do try to shoehorn it in when products are more mature usually have:

1. A codebase with a frustrating amount of refactoring in order to retroactively get things in line.

2. Development inertia where it’s seen as a low value activity among developers and product owners

3. Lack of clear guidance/tools/processes to QA new work

4. Lack of will to retroactively identify the breadth and scope of changes you even want to make

There is no mystery. It’s not going to get you sexy VC money at the beginning, and then it’s bizarrely more work than you’d think once your project is sufficiently large.

Lol yes. He’s a country guy who still sees the medium as a storytelling tradition. Really appreciate it.

I think this really highlights the crux of the issue, which is just that the “tribal knowledge” of how to operate the equipment isn’t there and it’s something that education would probably help.

Like, many people’s fathers have probably shown them how to relight the pilot lights on their furnaces and hot water heaters. And if not, the “handy person” on your block would know.

Understanding how to own and operate heat pumps effectively might not be as second nature.

Understanding how to validate the extreme weather functionality of your heating system is super important. Knowing the difference between “normal” and “something is fucked up”… especially before an extreme weather event is pretty important. I’m pretty handy, but absolutely nobody in my area runs heat pumps residentially…

… but that’s probably just because of a lack of uptake rather than a real economic reason. Solar is exploding in my area as a result of increasing power costs and a great environment for it.

As it’s adopted and as people learn how to use, maintain and troubleshoot them I expect problems like that will become more sparse.
