So, I am assuming you are native?

Reddit is leaking.

Am I the only one who doesn’t like it?

It’s infuriating.

Execs at company I worked for wanted to send data to another company. They asked us to work with their vendor who used AI to map data and fix it………the vendor had a bunch of MBAs and no devs. They kept saying AI without any substance and were completely useless and time wasters. Eventually we reached out to the original company and mapped the data ourselves in a day…no AI needed.

Turns out they are already geolocking. EU and US have different app stores. When I visited Poland I needed to install an app to install eSIM for my phone and couldn’t do it.

Had to change the country on my account and it dropped all my subscriptions. Then I had issue when I came back with apps not updating. So I had to fiddle with it again.

Extremely annoying.

Not everyone spends crazy amount of time on other social media. As you noted you too use social media, it just happens to be this.

I think HN is decent but it also is a tech echo chamber.

Caribbean is nice this time of year.

I wish every dev would try projects and things completely unrelated to computers.

I enjoy being outside.

These headlines “projects every dev should try” really annoy me. I try to put in enough effort at work, and that’s tough. But I have been messing with computers for over 20 years now.

I used uBlock to completely remove shorts from my browser. I have been getting sucked into shorts as I am thirsty male :(.

You mix an average male with an attractive model and something decent may come out. Plus she could afford surgeries.

It’s most likely a mix of things. Life in US is really fucking expensive once you have a child and a home.

Our daycare for one kid is $1600. Same as mortgage, luckily we put down a large down payment and bought at low rates.

Also, if you have health issue, that also makes things pretty extreme. Healthcare is just brutal in US for low income people. Insurance can cost anywhere from $0 to $3000+. Depending on employment and family situation.

Personal finance education is also pretty bad. I know many people who are absolutely awful with finances and don’t do basic math. They don’t think how money can generate more money but what they can buy. 20% of luxury goods buyers are making under $50k. This isn’t always the case though.

If you make little money and don’t have connections it is really hard to get ahead. Once you start using credit cards and loans to eat and pay for housing the finance charges eat you alive.

I was pretty poor and even used food stamps when I went back to school in my 20s. It wasn’t until I made connections with people in high places when getting jobs and opportunities became easy. I’m lazier than I was before, I work less than I worked before, yet make much more money.

I mean the lane change and using navigation is a pretty big jump from the Hyundai system which is dumb.

Hyundai would not be able to attempt to drive me home. While, you can get into a Tesla, enter an address and hope for the best.

Calling it autopilot is for sure part of the problem. The average individual is dumb and won’t ever open a manual or read any prompts. But then again they are there for legal reasons.

Autopilot = radar cruise and lane keep?

Honesty I don’t know what causes it. Driving assist stuff is great.

My Hyundai actually has great lane keep assist, emergency braking, cross traffic alert and braking, plus radar cruise. It will disengage lane keep and radar cruise if you don’t put your hands back on the wheel after alerts.

Maybe it’s because many buyers are younger? Or Tesla appears to be more techy and futuristic? Or maybe it is the weird approach to marketing musk is doing. It is a bit reckless imo.

I don’t really care if someone dies being an idiot and ignoring warnings. I do care if they slam into another driver that has no choice but to share the road with a Tesla.
