I’ve landed on Ubiquiti NVR systems. I previously used Frigate and VLANd reolinks.

Having a phone app to instantly view the cameras quickly (late at night) made the difference.

Without a doubt it is GPS/GNSS systems.

If you look at the dependency chain to accomplish the task, it’s a true yardstick for any modern civilization,economy,nation.

Call me simple. I manually export CSV files from the finance companies. (Should automate this). Vibe coded a CSV parser that will auto categorize, sort all expenses/income. Expenses go in one sheet. Income goes in another. Pivot table renders the data.

I can track money spent and earned down to the penny.

Takes less than 20 mins a month to update/manage it. I actually enjoy having sit-down time to "do finances". Keeps me leveled, and forces me to think about how much money I spent and the value I gained from the expenses.

I have similar feelings as the author. I aim to be as public as possible while maintaining personal privacy. I *want* to meet other like-minded people that enjoy the same topics I do.

I treat any of my public facing information as a honeypot for nerds (i.e like-minded people). In real life, if I meet interesting people, I point them to my website. If they reach out with questions, I know I found "one of my people".

On a similar note, if I an idea, project or thought of mine could benefit someone else and allow them to learn and gain from it. I'd like to publish it with my privacy in mind.

I might be in the minority. But I actually like working at an office (or preferably hybrid).

At work, I work. At home, I do home things. When I work and home at the same place i find it very hard to switch into either mode.

This effect is greatly magnified when you have kids.

I worked remote for a bit , and my overall happiness levels increased when I started working at co-working space. Granted my commute is less than 15 min.

My gym schedule has improved since it’s on the way to the coworking space.

I think the best setup is hybrid IMO

I do wonder what’s preventing a Lidar device from cross talking with other lidar devices. I remember talking to somebody about this and they told me that each signal is uniquely encoded per machine.

This seems like it will be a growing problem with increased autonomy on the roads

I’ve been saying this for years! JS gets alot of hate for dependency hell.

Why?

It’s almost too easy to add one compared to writing your own functions.

Now compare that to adding a dependency to a c++ project

Good call! I’m purely in the idea phase, I will definitely take your advice as I get closer

I’ve been considering this for a while. I have a fence that is south facing, with no major obstructions.

I want solar but I don’t want the liability of a roof install with leaks and servicing.

I’ve landed either on a solar pergola or a solar fence . Both concepts seem like a no brainer.

I like the solar fence since it allows you to cleverly avoid setback requirements that normal structures have.

I’m glad people like Joey are doing projects like this.

I’m here to take advantage of it. I bought a 2022 Model Y performance. New price was 75k, used price 31k. Love the car. I plan on driving the wheels off it.

I’ve directly worked in this space. This article is pure tabloid-style reporting.

It sounds like they are testing prototypes, and it’s not ready for mass fielding. Nothing new here.

Access/permissions control in military applications is VERY different when compared to the consumer or B2B space.

It takes real field testing to figure what is best for the customer needs.

I’ve come to similar conclusions in vehicle choices.

Current daily is a fast EV. The next project car I build will be some flavor of an outlaw SWB 911

There is something about it being analog that feels great. I have the same feeling for older Ducatis

You are perfectly correct.

I’m morphing love of modifying cars away from performance numbers but into a way to build mechanical art and enjoy emotional moments with other humans.

I’ve realized that was the whole point all along. EV or IC it doesn’t matter. Just the statements above
