Something is very wrong with how that car travelled at the top of the ramp.

The uncanny valley is telling me it shouldn't have shaken at the top of the track like that unless it was on a guide rail system for the demo.

The lack of greed is wonderful. It makes me think of how many endeavours would have succeeded if the founders and advisors weren't greedy.

At least this story shows that the lack of greed didn't improve quality.

So does this become a new display type? Laser TV?

I don't like giving away any information what-so-ever in an API key, and would lean towards a UUIDv7 string, just trying to avoid collisions.

Even the random hex with checksum component seems overkill to me, either the API key is correct or it isn't.

Highly processed food should be avoided at all costs.

I'm interested in this as a way to manage a calendar for my mother that is showing early signs of Dementia.

If we can centrally manage her bookings and all she has to do is look at the calendar and clearly see what is happening today, and in the near future, there is a real use-case for that.

Especially as I don't live near her, and remotely managing a calendar in her house would be amazingly useful.

Just today I dumped Windows 11 and moved to Linux, lots to learn but wow, so nice not to be inside their walls.

Proof read everything the AI writes.

Triple check the security side of things.

Get a calculator out and work out the savings on the home page.

Accuracy is important if you want people to give you money.

It would be great to see this for each culture around the world, identifying the named colours from their language / culture.

I saw a BBC? documentary about this years ago and it showed how some cultures had the ability to clearly identify different colours where I couldn't see any difference.

It turns out that knowing subtle differences in colours can have a strong impact on your daily life, so cultures pick unique parts of the colour spectrum to assign names to.

If used in power generation, would they open new options?

e.g. high RPM, or high torque options over existing generators?

I did :) good pick up!

It frustrates me no end when large commercial web sites fail to store state in URLs. It should be updated when the user clicks the 'submit' button of a page, especially when related to searching.

Some products have these fancy KQL style search parameters but if you forget to 'save the search' within the applications 'Save Search' facility, then when you duplicate a tab the search is lost.

It feels rude when sites ignore the UX improvement by not leveraging the power of URLs to store current state.

With the ever increasing explosion of devices capable of consuming AI services, and internet infrastructure being so ubiquitous that billions of people can use AI...

Even if a little of everyone's day consumes AI services, then the investment required will be immense. Like what we see.

My programming productivity has improved a lot with Claude Code.

One thing I've noticed is that I don't have a circle of people where I can discus programming with, and having an LLM to answer questions and wireframe up code has been amazing.

My job doesn't require programming, but programming makes my job much easier, and the benefits have been great.
