<p>I'm being pedantic but I liked your comment. Most TVs today are giant ARM computers, ~95% of TVs ship with ARM Cortex but only about 35% have some variant of Android.<p>Most LED backlights are wired in such a way that when one LED fails it bricks a significant portion of the panel backlight. You'll knock out entire rows or huge portions of neighbor backlight LEDs when one fails. Basically it's a cheap way to ensure a whole row of LEDs are the same brightness but the tradeoff is one LED fails and it looks like 5% of your screen went dark.<p>It seems like a good beginner-intermediate thing that'd be approachable to learn with a basic multimeter and beginner level soldering skills.</p>

<p>That worked. Really well!<p>But, white on black is really ugly. Even black on white or a simple inversion would be an improvement.<p>I think it could benefit from the ability to pause and see the transcript, and make edits before the video is generated.</p>

<p>X is so large that it can simultaneously be a giant dumpster fire, the most toxic social network ever to exist, and still have room for honest discussion and good communities.<p>Gives me some hope for Bluesky, etc. I don't think you need to be Twitter scale or have global network effects to work. Your community just has to choose a particular platform and show a preference for it. You get miniature network effects once your community adopts it.<p>So if your favorite community doesn't like a particular platform, I don't think they're stuck there, just because it's the one with global scale. They just have to organize an exit.</p>

<p>There's a lot of correct feedback about why this is not an amazing start for something starting as a marketplace for talent.<p>This could be a beautiful start for a Linkedin alternative focused on freelancers, entrepreneurs, etc. Maybe even people in specific industries whose Linkedin currently does more than get them their next job (sales comes to mind, but also folks who work at design agencies and need to get clients, and have a profile they attach somewhere in the about us section).</p>

<p>BunnyCDN has a great product offering, particularly if you've used Backblaze B2 as "ultra-cheap" object storage, the BunnyCDN product is very competitive pricing-wise, and the CDN configures seamlessly with it. And you can set up a cheap image transform proxy on any of your CDNs.<p>R2 is cheaper though if you storage cost is less than your bandwidth cost, and B2 has a feature to automatically expire items which depending on your design might make it more efficient.</p>

<p>This isn't new or unique. The model seems to be too focused on the task at hand, "cleaning up" unrelated code.<p>I basically have to branch, commit every time it makes any progress at all, and squash later. There are built-in checkpoints that basically do this.<p>I actually run this side-by-side with my preferred IDE, and GitHub Desktop (to visualize the diffs). So, prompt -> Claude makes a change -> I view the diff -> I make some edits -> Commit -> back to Cursor.</p>

<p>Every single other major jet manufacturer is already making air travel cheaper and more efficient every year. It's all airlines who buy from Boeing or Airbus care about. The underserved niche is premium and small, not scale. Commercial aircraft will get 1% more efficient every year with or without new companies (<a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fuel_economy_in_aircraft#/media/File:Aviation_Efficiency_(RPK_per_kg_CO2).svg" rel="nofollow">https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fuel_economy_in_aircraft#/medi...</a>).<p>If we start in supersonic today, and innovate at the same pace for 20 years, you might match the efficiency boom from the "jet age" and make supersonic twice as efficient as today.</p>

<p>When people realized anyone with a sophisticated police scanner could listen in on cordless (and then early cellular) phone calls, it forced manufacturers to actually implement a bare-minimum level of security on those devices.<p>I hope this pushes more manufacturers to switch to rolling-code algorithms (like the key fob your car uses), in place of simpler, less secure codes that can be captured and replayed.</p>
