@SnazzyLabs @j3r3myfong Didn’t answer the question with that response. 1 mi/hr is like 500W. You prob have bad wiring causing excessively large voltage drop and your EV is respecting that to not cause a fire

You kinda forget how absolutely enormous EV batteries are until you charge them on a regular 120V outlet.

Dealing with a lot of simple mistakes from Opus 4.8. Noticeably more than I ever had with 4.7

@AdkHomeroom @TheLizVariant Almost every one of these points is wrong for the “late 90s”
English
@TheLizVariant You mean the late 80s. By the late 90s, many kids were online a lot, most were online for some of the time, cell phones were appearing, and outside play was already a shadow of its former self thanks to much improved video game systems and rampant safety culture.
English
There’s a growing trend of parents intentionally raising their kids like it’s the late 90s again.
No iPads. No algorithm. Just bikes, VHS tapes, books, outside play, family dinners, and boredom that forces kids to actually use their imagination.
Id love to know where they’re getting these VHS tapes?

I think the REAL bottleneck is Land. Data centers/ai infrastructure, chip manufacturing, power generation, energy/gas all require significant amount of land. Theres a reason Kevin O Leary is building a 40,000 acre data center site instead of a little 200-300 acre site. More power. More GW. More efficiency. More money. Texas is at the heart of the 4th industrial revolution. $LB $EROK $TPL

Things Codex Likes to Say, Translated:
- smoke test (test, which is not clearly designed and organized as a unit, integration, or regression test)
- seam (module interface)
- gates (conditional check in code, or as a defined workflow development milestone condition)
- signal (test result, log value, or runtime input)
- surface (UI or API interface)
- knob (any configurable value)
- load-bearing (causally critical)
- runbook (instructions)
- bring up (initialize and start)
what am I missing?

It's crazy how you can learn when people start using AI assisted programming more these days by how often they say "smoke test".

@jared_western I’ve speculated shopping with my wife is easily a $100/hr job, but only for a couple hours a week, due to her not buying as much with me watching

Shopping with your wife is FUN & PRODUCTIVE when you jam on research with Grok as you follow her around!

I can’t wait for my future kids to play travel sports.
Allowing them to:
- Improve at that said sport
- Make lifelong memories with friends
- Learn life skills that come from great competition.
Only if it’s a sport they love and something they want to do obviously.

Sandlot it ain't. Youth sports now $40 B industry: "Teenagers on travel teams are rolling into weekend tournaments wearing a few thousand dollars of apparel, equipment & swag. Avg family spending on baseball increased nearly 70% between 2019 and 2024." wsj.com/business/retai…

@AaronRathAuthor @PrometheusHides @BlumenMit “Shackleton is an impact crater that lies at the lunar south pole. The peaks along the crater's rim are exposed to almost continual sunlight”
English
@auspiv @PrometheusHides @BlumenMit With respect to the sun, the moon has a "day" of 28 days. These are the phases. Every spot on the moon is full dark for 14 days in a row, and in sun for 14 days in a row.
A crater, during the day phase, will have sunny and shady spots that drift very slowly.
English
A sterling engine at the edge of a moon crater would go really hard with a peak difference in temperature of almost 400°C.
English
@auspiv @BlumenMit There is no perpetual sunlight on the moon. Anywhere.
English
@PrometheusHides @BlumenMit Hence the edge of craters which are close to perpetual sunlight
English
@BlumenMit Except for those 14 earth days every month that it is completely dark and cold.

If these authors got their way, it might lead to an unimaginable increase in animal suffering.
Because we would suddenly start factory farming alpha-gal free pigs to an insane extent.

A peer-reviewed paper published last year in the journal Bioethics by two professors at Western Michigan University School of Medicine argues that it is "morally obligatory" to genetically engineer ticks to spread alpha-gal syndrome, a permanent condition that makes you violently allergic to red meat. The paper is called "Beneficial Bloodsucking." Their argument: if eating meat is morally wrong, then preventing the spread of a disease that forces people to stop eating meat is also morally wrong. Scientists should gene-edit lone star ticks to enhance their ability to carry alpha-gal syndrome and expand their range into urban environments to infect more people. They call this a "moral bioenhancer." They frame releasing genetically modified disease-carrying ticks as a "vaccination" that only "infringes" on your bodily autonomy rather than "violating" it. The distinction, apparently, is that a tick bit you instead of a government official holding you down. Alpha-gal syndrome is not mild. The CDC estimates up to 450,000 Americans are already affected. Cases have surged 100-fold in the last decade. Symptoms include anaphylaxis. There is no cure. Alpha-gal cases are exploding across the United States. The lone star tick's range is expanding far beyond its historical territory. And two academics at a medical school published a paper arguing this is a good thing that should be accelerated. At what point do we stop treating papers like this as fringe academic exercises and start asking whether anyone is already acting on them?
