I used to believe this wasn't worth considering (because while training is energy-intensive, once the model is trained we can use it forever.) But in practice it seems like we switch to newer/better models every few months, so a model has a limited period of usefulness.

> (is watt-hours the right unit of measurement here?)

Yes, because we want to measure energy consumed, while watts is only a measure of instantaneous power.

I enjoy building robust systems and healthy technical communities, deep troubleshooting, and removing incidental complexity from code and UIs. I enjoy working across the whole stack, from user research to building the feature and back again. I'm not afraid of hardware either, having spent time in server rooms and configured a lot of network gear.

The similarity is more vague with GNOME (3) and Mac OS, IMO.

Sometimes I'll bounce off of a given artist several times, over years or decades, until the right track catches me when I'm "ready" for it, and then I'll enjoy discovering their whole catalog. At that point, the affinity is durable. I would love to find whoever is my next (e.g.) Steely Dan.

Have you tested this, perhaps by shorting a few unprotected cells in a full pack? Have a video? :)

A lithium ion cell in thermal runaway produces a LOT of heat that must go somewhere. An aluminum case would get hot enough to start a fire, even if it doesn't catch fire itself.

Is the companion app open-source and free of tracking/surveillance? Does it work with no internet connectivity?

Is the BMS communication protocol open, so one could write their own client for it? How about the BMS firmware itself?

How do you handle the user installing un-balanced cells in parallel to each other?

Right now, Slack is pushing their own "canvas" and "lists" features -- the UI _begs_ you to click on them. Seems like they are testing the waters to become a project management app (with tight chat integration).

If you're running GNOME, install GNOME Tweaks (likely in your distro's package manager). The "Fonts" section has a "Scaling Factor" option gives you more granular control than a "large text" toggle. Try 1.37 or 1.50. Nearly all my apps respect it (except for OpenSnitch). Everything looks tack-sharp with none of the fractional resolution scaling drama.

Most of Framework's employees use Linux, to the extent that the CEO himself runs Windows, to shake out any glitches with Windows support. [0] It's a tiny mom & pop shop compared to Apple!

I co-founded and maintain https://gitlab.com/exosphere/exosphere , a user-friendly client for OpenStack-based clouds. Currently work on https://jetstream-cloud.org , a NSF-funded IaaS for US-based researchers. See my activity on https://gitlab.com/cmart . In my off-time I'm incubating https://codeberg.org/cmart/intentful , a browser extension to help folks manage their attention online. I also started https://codecommons.net and https://tucsoncode.works . Personal blog at https://cmart.blog . Hear me talk on a podcast: https://elm.town/episodes/elm-town-66-a-gateway-to-scientifi...

A lot of these tracks could be intentionally manipulated by a sophisticated actor to disguise their identity, but it's not "nothing".

I believe the Uni-ball One is a better pen body in every way. Tight tolerances. Well-built, hinged steel clip that provides superior fidgeting. Nicer clicker haptics too. I don't love the ink that comes in them, but they take Jetstream SXR-7 and SXR-5 refills. You can get both of these from JetPens.
