I have been trying on and off to achieve this for years and what really bothered me was at slow speeds (reversing into a parking space), my vehicle would move laterally to the wheel direction. I could never solve that issue without hacking it which really annoyed me. Last time I tried was during covid. I picked up "The Multibody Systems Approach to Vehicle Dynamics - 2004" for 99p in a local charity shop. Far, far too advanced for me but I did manage to simplify it with google and some questions on stack to get nice handling. Alas that slow speed lateral motion, just knowing it was there made me shelf it again.

I am determined not to use a LLM or even this article to solve it at some point in my life.

Thanks for sharing.

I love these kind of things and all of their quirks. Just interacting with a webpage in a fun way. More of this!

I agree! My friend and I have the fondest memories of that game in particular since we played it for months on the Amiga 500 at the time. Meathook was my hero. We both have this inner memory of 4k photorealistic graphics which doesn't match the reality of the 90s game.

The thought of learning a new keyboard is kind of scary. Is there any true difference? 30 years of typing on a QWERTY here. I wonder how long it would take to get to 75WPM on graphite. A decade?

I loved it! As soon as I start to do these things, I get stressed and become much worse! Anyone remember the car game where you raced against others by typing? That was fun but forgotten the link.

My boss is a designer and does the same. He has come into a mature product's codebase, the only project the company has, he called me about 6 months ago and started boasting with a screenshare showing me how he had 5 terminals open and smashing through ideas straight into production.

Now the system is failing, he thinks I am going to go in and fix all of his problems. Told him straight what I told him 6 months ago, he owns it, so get it fixed.

Not sure what happens to myself or the company by the end of the year.

Needs to be more stories about these people injecting AI Hopium and destroying their product, there isn't enough of them.

Does anyone ever wonder why a doorbell needs to be connected? I do, so I don't have one. Diminishing returns by design? I've never been like "oh I am glad my doorbell is connected to my network". Wondering what marketing I didn't see (and fall for).

I honestly write it off. "especially if you ask the right questions" just collapses to being a bag holder because I didn't ask the right questions with or without AI.

Ah interesting, I seen the title "run into" as "bump into" or in this context, get to where 100k people are. I don't know any US addresses far from population centers so I pumped in Area 51!

Clarity needed on the title or description!
