I had a job as HVAC engineer for the upgraded Oslo Airport back in 2011; started doing HVAC work for 3 weeks the rest was programming trying to make the rest of people more efficient. Made an Excel sheet with a lot of macros to manage all the drawing of the airport. That’s why I switched to programming when I continued to study, and did not want to come back before I got more experience.

They even gave me a big desk at Trondheim/Tyholt so I could help them with the software during my studies.

«Why we did it»; would rather have a “How we did it”. The why gave me AI generated marketing material feelings.

Tailscale’s article about NAT traversal is an example of how to write “how we did it”: https://tailscale.com/blog/how-nat-traversal-works

Should fix the images on the page, but the app looks good. Using Termius on iPhone, but seriously thinking of trying something else

Wished there was more of a Minecraft style of control. A bit hard to do changes using a touch interface (example iPhone or iPad)

Could we all get bigger FPGAs and load the model onto it using the same technique?

That’s like saying origami is already a thing. Agree that this could be cool to test as new kind of infill.

New comment by punnerud in "I want to wash my car. The car wash is 50 meters away. Should I walk or drive?"

punnerud — Mon, 16 Feb 2026 11:09:59 +0000

ChatGPt 5.2: “ Drive — because it’s your car that needs to get to the car wash.

50 meters is comically short, but walking there without the car doesn’t solve the “wash the car” part. If you’re worried about it feeling silly, you can also just roll/push it that distance if it’s safe and legal where you are, but the practical answer is: drive it over.”

Grok: “To wash your car at a car wash 50 meters away, you’ll need to drive it there—walking would leave the car behind, and I’m assuming you don’t have a really long hose or a team of helpers to carry it. That said, if you’re feeling extra eco-friendly (or just want the exercise), you could theoretically push it, but that’s probably more hassle than it’s worth for such a short distance. Drive safe!”

Claude Opus 4.6: “Drive. You need the car at the car wash. ”

punnerud — Tue, 10 Feb 2026 21:03:28 +0000

“Has begun” as in recent? BankAxept has been in use in Norway since 1991 to avoid the VISA/Mastercard “tax” https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BankAxept

Biggest banks here refused to support Apple Pay and worked hard on legislations to open NFC access. Now we can pay with no fees to Visa/Mastercard or Apple even from our phones.

When can I get remote access in the iPhone app? Start on my laptop, check results using Tailscale/VPN and add follow up’s on the mobile to run on the computer. Know many that would love this feature.

My Clawdbot/Moltbot/OpenBot can’t access. Tried multiple times, so guess it’s overloaded. (It don’t have access to any sensitive information and running on a isolated server)
