If I didn't live in Budapest already I'd be questioning the authenticity of this retelling. However I've seen so many crazy things there that I find it very easy to believe.

I've lived in Budapest for a while too, did you work with Gabor S. by chance on math stuff? You were at ELTE or BME?

oh I didn't know about the ID.Polo, i was looking into the ID.3 neo life

idk how is it that HN articles often match whatever currently obsesses me. I'm going to buy an EV next year and i'm looking for a 2nd hand one exactly in this range.

apparently those trillions were necessary just to keep the boat staying afloat.

I kind of gained all the benefits of LFS by just maintaining a yocto embedded linux distribution at my first job for a couple of years. Yocto is basically automated LFS, it will compile a cross toolchain then use that cross toolchain to compile everything for your target system.

Yeah I never heard of "GDR", and I've visited the DDR museum in Berlin. My grandfather went to work in the DDR and when I was a kid in the 90s I still had all sorts of toys and things like casette recorders from the DDR. Oh man what a blast from the past that museum was.

bro, same

I kind of took it to mean that there are no irrelevant facts in the universe. And potentially everything deserves close attention.

My favorite is chapter 22

Master Tung-kuo asked Chuang Tzu, "This thing called the Way-where does it exist?"

Chuang Tzu said, "There's no place it doesn't exist."

"Come," said Master Tung-kuo, "you must be more specific!"

"It is in the ant."

"As low a thing as that?"

"It is in the panic grass."

"But that's lower still!"

"It is in the tiles and shards."

"How can it be so low?"

"It is in the piss and shit."

you don't need legs to climb stairs, you can have a rotating mechanism with different rows of wheels that have good enough grip, maybe an extruding stick to lift the whole robot up and the wheels move forward... would take a lot fewer joints than pair of legs probably.

I don't leave 1 star reviews in such places, because I don't sit down to eat there to begin with.

Read the fine print, "non-MCS (mixed criticality systems), unicore"

TUIs would be great if they didn't have to render all text the same size, for me that's the main win with GUIs, you have total freedom with what you can do with your pixels.

I would definitely be pro minimalist unicode-character-themed GUIs for what it's worth. Where every graphical primitive is basically a unicode character, without the restriction on font size.

I agree 100%. Pictures or any sort of visual representation of any kind would only diminish the quality of the whole experience.

The fact is, if you're smart enough you can just eyeball raw css and just see it if you close your eyes.

Oh you're not also gifted? Well I guess you're not special enough for this job then. Maybe you should be flipping burgers instead.
