The top down view of upcoming traffic complications ahead of a forward angled view of your surroundings seems incredibly practical to me.

I'm fortunate to not suffer motion sickness in general, but I showed this to my wife for 5 seconds and she was feeling motion sick.

Personally, I love it. It's fun, and I look forward to using it one day in lieu of exclusively top down or forward angled alone nav tools.

I use Pulumi for work, and their AI solution (Pulumi Neo) works amazingly well in troubleshooting cloud issues. It's informed of the cloud state and recent changes right from their platform, which is pretty amazing. Compared to using Azure CoPilot for the same purposes, Pulumi Neo was faster in generating responses, and these responses were actionable and solved my issues. CoPilot was laughably useless comparably.

Had a blast playing around w/prompts and listening to the various results.

I play piano, sax, guitar, and I can sing well enough. I'm garbage at songwriting and composing. I immediately see the value of using this tool to scaffold an idea out. I think being able to export lyrics and chord progressions would be an amazing paid feature to keep this as a freemium product.

Pretty hilarious how negative the original article comments are, and it turned out after a year of use the author has nothing but positive things to say: https://electrek.co/2022/07/25/electric-mini-truck-how-its-h...

I think there's a large education gap surround EVs that needs to be filled. Hopefully more articles and experiments like this continue to appear. If you have an EV, consider spreading the word - good and bad. It's important to talk about all aspects to both bring more users into the EV fold, and address existing issues.

I was equally disappointed to see this feature absent.

New comment by dengsauve in "USPS Awards Contract to Modernize Postal Delivery Vehicle Fleet"

dengsauve — Wed, 24 Feb 2021 23:53:52 +0000

I don't understand why USPS would contract out designing a new vehicle instead of buying American SUVs built for Europe - all the amenities of a modern SUV, plenty of parts and mechanics to repair them, and they'll have been built by a real car company, not some "Tactical Vehicle Manufacturer". Best of all, they'll have that right-hand-drive that Postal workers love so much.

We can't even do something as simple as upgrading the post office vehicles without bringing in defense contractors. Give me a break. Put that money towards a company of peace, or at least the company that will cost USPS the least.

I recently took a sales pitch from Prodoscore, and I'm now concerned about a "global employment score" that might become a new barrier to employment.

I don't think this is specifically to give anyone an advantage, more like how there are differently sized guitars/violins/cellos for differently sized people.

New comment by dengsauve in "Pianists for Alternatively Sized Keyboards"

dengsauve — Sun, 22 Nov 2020 00:43:24 +0000

The 3 suggested sizes are large (current standard) and two smaller keyboards.

I would like to humbly submit a 4th change. The large keyboard, but with narrower black keys. I have the hand size and range to play well on a large keyboard, but my biggest struggle has been my wide fingers being unable to fit between the black keys (only by a few millimeters).

I have large hands and I used to be able to play very well, but in college it began to get harder and harder to get my fingers between the keys.

This looks fantastic, just from a quick download and playing around for 5 minutes I know this is going to come in handy. I don't always have a note taker open, but I almost always have a terminal open.

Thank you for posting this, when I cloned the repo initially from the site, configure.sh was not included.

I'm a full stack developer that works well with clients and coworkers alike. Currently working as a developer, but there's no room for growth. Looking to relocate to anywhere on the West Coast (Seattle, Portland, San Francisco, etc.)

Interested in management positions in the future, and looking for a company where I can grow into management.
