gotta do communications over radio, if only cell phones had that access during an emergency situation. i know that would need more power and a bigger antenna to have a radio broadcast mesh network. i know there are issues with that but it’s better than no communication to the outside world especially during a crisis situation, people really should have the freedom to communicate.

what if there was a way to “increase frame rate” by adding in some type of logic checker between two generated images? kinda like a comparison between two generated frames that would lead to more generated images that mimic movement? so like a filler between frames that would predict how something got to one shape to another using a set of properties that a generated object has, those properties could be weight, speed, gravity etc etc, it just depends on what object it is conceptualizing or constructing

bikes honestly should follow pedestrians, a bike is not a car and the person who will be the most amount of injured will be the person on the bike over the person of the car. so maybe have both car and bike be able to see each other in bike lanes, and keep the sidewalks to the cars. there really should be an initiative to expand the shoulders in rural america. lost of places in america are not even walking friendly. america decided to be different and make cars the main focus which is killing us (toxic gas fumes everywhere)

i would like to go even wider and just block all news sites as they tend to push political agendas from their prospective which mostly is filled with speculation that often causes unnecessary stress

can they redirect the light beams using solar mirrors that orbit the moon somehow? kinda like a light redirection satellite? technically speaking if there is enough panels and enough wiring to build a grid it could work. the energy would just have to travel via cables once harvested

it’s going to be interesting to see personal rockets one day complete with regulations and all the ins and outs of that industry becoming mainstream

it happens all the time to people of color who get busted for weed in a non-legal state. it’s actually been this way for years in america, a lot of these overextending started from the red scare, terrorism but yeah a large part was based on the war on drugs which largely has been an expensive failure

i’ve trained on flutter for over 8 months and pushed an from design to app on the app store and built the api in dart as well.

i am one of those weirdos who likes it but nobody is hiring so i am rebrushing back up on javascript and react native. one area i would love to see is json being automatically accessible just like in javascript, also their routing in flutter needs work. it’s not for everyone but it has a ton of potential if some things get change

wow, and here i am coding off and on since i was nine years old (port scanners, bots, blogs, ezines, chat servers, simple games, apps etc) cd and feeling like an imposter, so i don’t bother applying to tech jobs because i think i am not good enough and yet guys like the guy you worked with are getting all sorts of positions. maybe i should push myself more. having social anxiety sucks

if you follow /r/futurology /r/technology and sometimes here throughout the years you will see breakthrough after breakthrough, these small advancements do make it into manufacturing sooner than what people think, one of the biggest challenges was for me was reading about cool tech and waiting forever for it, then giving up on it and deeming it as a probably just a clickbait promise, but not to much sooner after i have forgotten the advancements, they make their way into everyday life proving to me that technology never comes as soon as you think it does, but it comes eventually.

well a changed mind can lead to some interesting enhancements in life.

people are missing out when they shut themselves out completely.

like we’ve all been wrong before, which means someone we disagreed with was at least right about something.

i think the bigger thing people have to be okay with is just letting things go after a certain point.

some people will argue until they are blue in the face
