You said it yourself. Assuming people are doing something without being mindful and purposefully trying to improve then 50k miles on mental autopilot it is not a surprise that someone wouldn't get better at driving. Without a desire to improve and/or being involved in a process that would give feedback then there will be no growth.

> a general deterioration in driving skills

Is that a measured observation? Not trying to nitpick - genuinely curious if this is your observation from experience or there are some studies that you are referring to.

Is it me or is the top interface oriented the wrong way? You want to have the big screen pointed away from the user and all of the top controls are facing/written to the audience.

Big fan of timelines. I am going to use this for sure

Have had an idea for a timeline search/visualization. Search a thing and that pulls pages and related pages with date/times from Wikipedia. With a zoom in/out to adjust resolution like google maps - weight nodes on timeline based on page views/edits/links. Have not gotten around to try to make something like it. I bring it up here just in case something already exists and I missed it.

AFAIK TSMC does not manufacture the machines they use to create processors so in any case they would be moving the equipment into a facility.

Awesome to see WV at the top of yet another list of shame.

While our state representatives are issuing a tax refund because we are "running a surplus"

This state is wild. I bet it will be the first to be merged with a nearby state because of poor governance.

Does not seem weird to me that you would start with the type of query you are writing.

Select, insert, update, delete, merge is the first word and says what you are doing.

If the keyword was in the middle of the query somewhere it would be harder to read.

I like the idea of a little keyboard that I can attach. But this is a replacement case so it is meant to be on all the time?

Some interesting layout choices. mostly ortholinear but not totally, double size enter key, same size backspace, tab, language globe.

Neato idea, glad to see interesting accessories coming out. This is a hard sell for me.

This looks great. I have a work PC and personal PC on the same desk but cannot install anything on the work PC. Would be great to declutter my desk with this.

Unrelated - surprised JLCPCB does not have a way to share a link to a PCB so folks can buy a board without needing to upload the files themselves. Maybe I am missing it?

Will be interesting to see what ends up buying up their assets.

This is why I won't pay for youtube premium. It only removes part of the ads.
