Might be worth giving Qelbree a shot as well. I switched to it last year and...yeah, it' was a complete game changer. Hard to get insurance to cover, but it's been well worth it.

Agreed. This is highly, highly useful. Going to integrate this today.

Wow. I love this! I actually have a specific, esoteric use for this: VSCode on iPad

Hopefully supports iPadOS one day.

Putting my affiliate hat on here for a minute...

Very cool to see how you've aggregated so many products into one service. How do you plan to compete with FMTC and others that aggregate feeds together? Speaking as a publisher, I'd not want to share commission unless absolutely necessary and would prefer to just pay a fee so I can access the feed and not have an unknown amount of revenue lost between myself and the merchant.

As a brand running a program, I'd be very cautious about allowing my feed into your database if I didn't have any way to finding out who is featuring my products and where/how. Are you providing visibility to the brands since you're effectively functioning as a sub-affiliate network?

Those questions aside, great to see YC funding a startup in the space!

Interesting - I wasn't aware this covered tram-trains. I was under the impression it only granted the exception to lighter off-the-shelf EU equipment like Stadler FLIRT or Siemens Desiro.

You're correct. LIRR trains are built to a much heavier standard and thus are allowed on the same tracks as freight rail.

Unfortunately no. The main difference is mass - US trains are vastly heavier than anything in the UK so by the time you make a tram crashworthy it isn't a tram any longer.

That said, I believe the FRA did allow lighter designs such as the Siemens FLIRT for commuter lines so the rules are definitely less onerous.

> The low density of Charlotte means a transport network like Munich’s is not viable, but the city could take its pre-existing light rail network and join it up to the extensive network of railroad lines around the city that are currently used only for moving freight.

This is not a feasible option due to the vast difference in crashworthiness standards between US freight rail and other system types such as light rail. The FRA actually prohibits allowing these two types on the same network of tracks at the same time. However, they could use a line along the right-of-way were it big enough to accommodate another set of tracks.

This is similar to something we've been doing for a while. Instead of individual agents we are creating many iterations and sub-iterations of spawned agents that are largely autonomous. A lot of the human-centric paradigms just don't really apply to LLMs/AI but people are used to approaching them that way.

I think the app will be for plug-and-charge users, while they'll have credit card readers for everyone else.

I do agree that chargers requiring an app are a royal pain. We're an all-EV household and I don't bother with local chargers that don't have readers or support plug-and-charge. There's a lot of Shell chargers in our area that require an app to work and almost no-one uses them because of how clunky it is.
