If Waymo can pull off airport pickups smoothly, it might shift how we think about edge entry to city traffic. Most cities still struggle with that "last mile" problem maybe self driving fits perfectly there.


This reminds me of when I was a kid, taking apart toys just to keep the tiny motors and circuit boards like treasures. Now as an adult, seeing someone pull a full working system out of a disposable vape to run a website feels like the same kind of magic. Maybe this is what romance looks like in the tech world.


Portraying encryption as a threat is a distortion of the very concept of “freedom.” It’s not about hiding, but about preserving a private space in the digital world just as it is in the physical world.


Ever since energy conservation and environmental protection became a focus, supermarkets have started charging for plastic bags. But I think relying on this kind of approach to reduce usage does not really solve the root problem. Instead of using penalties, we should be thinking of practical and eco friendly alternatives that make people genuinely want to change their habits.


Penalties are a key part of the picture though. They help cover the otherwise unpriced negative externalities.


I've run into similar issues too. Even small scripts or commands sometimes get throttled. It does not feel like a resource limit. It feels more like the system is just overly sensitive.

As someone who keeps oddball hours, I can tell you that time of day will very much change your experience with Claude.

2am Sunday is nothing like 2pm on a Tuesday.

Somebody call the cyber psychologist! (Cychologist?)


I’d be curious to see if similar principles could be applied to non food preservation. Nature’s solutions often scale better than synthetic ones, especially when stability over long timeframes is needed.


Honey's hydrogen peroxide production and hygroscopic properties have already inspired antimicrobial coatings for medical devices and water-resistant biomaterials for tissue engineering.


Imagine a honey-inspired environment for stabilizing sensitive compounds or preserving biological samples without refrigeration


That's what honey-preserved foods are: biological samples without refrigeration.


Maybe the real question isn’t whether the microwave is useful, but whether she wanted what it offered. That seems to apply to a lot of tech debates today too.


If we’re serious about data being more important than models, then where are the Similar to ISO standards for dataset quality? We have so many model metrics, but almost nothing standardized for data integrity or reproducibility.


Maybe the problem isn't why people won't pay, but why the news industry still thinks the old model works. People are willing to pay for music, games, coffee, but news isn't engaging or pleasurable anymore. It's more like spinach: good for you, but you don't crave it.


I'm not really afraid that AI will replace programmers. What I worry about is that it might make programmers stop thinking. I've seen beginners who quickly get used to asking AI for answers and no longer try to understand how things actually work. It may feel fast at first, but over time they lose the ability to solve problems on their own.
