IMO an engineer should be able to develop a complex system which an entire company could potentially be based upon.

A developer who isn’t an engineer would focus more on individual libraries, apps or tools that don’t necessarily require the mindset of an engineer to design and maintain.

This looks like a lot of fun to use, I loved the example from What If, so many units!

Solidarity to our Swedish comrades, showing Tesla the power of united labour!

It has gone so wrong because liberalism has failed. We need political movements which serve the people, not the corporations.

They’re talking about the rendering speed, not the playback speed.

I’ve got a MYLR and the sustained acceleration is terrifying, its very seldom that I floor it.

The M3P must be bonkers since its lighter, lower and more powerful.

Yes, the Model Y is the best selling car in Norway ever, but your smooth brain knows much better than everyone who has been in the market and purchased one because it was the best option for them.

Presumably because it uses LFP battery cells? If that’s the case, then the lower rated range is not as important since those cells tolerate many charge cycles to 100%.

One typically only charges to 80% with other Li battery chemistries so one effectively loses that top 20% of range.

Could we get some no spoilers rules up in here??

Thank fuck! I’m so sick of rebasing and merging Dependabot PRs.

Gradle is absolute rubbish, definitely the worst experience I’ve had with a build system. But Maven is also rubbish.

IMO a CLI should be the primary way of interacting with the build system (see e.g. Go, Rust, JS with NPM or Yarn, Python with Poetry) and manually editing the build file should be reserved for edge cases and extensions.

Great post! We solve far too many problems (many of them are very much in the nice-to-have category) with our systems at my work, the systems get huge and difficult to change or maintain. I’m on a constant campaign to stop people building things we don’t need, I’m definitely filling my senior role lol.

Non-ideal conditions can be a reason for qualifying 4th rather than 2nd where he should be, there’s just no excuse for not making Q3 in the fastest car.

Nice summary, I’ll link confused normie friends to it.

BTW, the header on your site is very large on Firefox mobile

The enshittification doubles by the day, good lord

If you’re really keen on a FOSS setup you may need to go terminal based, I haven’t tried this setup but it looks good
