Ah ok fair enough.

This is so embarrassing. OCI images could have easily been prepared to be ready for the announcement.

I wonder if the Roadster can seriously compete with the McMurtry Spéirling Pure. It’s lightweight and has crazy active aero. The Roadster has the thrusters, but I can’t imagine those lasting long if the race is long enough. (i understand it “refuels”, but I can’t imagine that being quick or energy efficient).

Do you have sensory issues with specific fabrics as well? I have the same issues with long sleeves and it’s made much worse when it’s polyester. I can tolerate loose long sleeved cotton/linen pants much better.

I am exactly the same way. This year I had to attend a wedding during the heat wave in Germany (no AC anywhere). It was a sensory nightmare. Other guests seemed to just tank it or even somehow enjoy the weather…

The autistic community embraces self-diagnosis for lots of reasons (off the top of my head):

- it can be hard for autistic people to even go see a specialist - lots of autistic people have traumas related to being diagnosed wrongly and receiving bad treatment as a result

Yeah I would love this form factor with Linux drivers…

I think what they are suggesting is that this would replace playwright/cypress in favor of stagehand+test runner (like vitest or whatever you are already using)

Sweet. It’s kinda wild to me that this hasn’t been done. Would be so much nicer if gitlab/forgejo/gitea/… supported object storage for everything. Currently you always still need a filesystem for git repos.

Vite 8 with rolldown is plenty fast and usually not the bottleneck, is it?

Sachsen-Anhalt != Sachsen . And I think voters there are too far gone…

People use it for more than just weight loss. In fact it seems to be very popular with gym bros specifically. I have no experience with any peptides, but I think it’s fascinating that people are willing to inject themselves with gray market chemicals with no long term studies.

Sounds like paseo is for you. It wraps whatever harness you want and makes it accessible on the go. I am the same way as you and openclaw is not for me.

Glm-5.3 is dog slow compared to opus and sol. I tried the same real world task on all three and GLM-5.3 was the slowest by a factor of 3.

But did they create those plots “by hand”, or did they use one of million open source libraries that create SVG plots? In my experience even SOTA models suck at generating SVG graphics like logos.

This would increase the malware surface area and make it much easier for automated security scanners to detect. So win-win for everyone.

GLM 5.2 already matches GPT-5.4 easily.

And that is completely ignoring maintenance cost which tends to be a lot cheaper on EVs.

I can recommend microsandbox. More mature than smolmachines. I have tried both.
