What a funny thing to say about something that is literally all text. Match up the code itself with the commit message and the ticket that caused it to happen - we work in the most documented business there is.

If you don't force/write good commit messages then you get what you deserve.

If you don't force/use good issue tracking then you get what you deserve.

In general, AI now composes my commit messages. Then I delete 2/3 of it. Sometimes I'll touch it up a bit. So it is helping our process...

For every line of code in our repo I know who wrote it, when they wrote it, what they said about writing it, and why they started to write it in the first place. If you don't know those things then you (or your organization) are doing it wrong.

For all we know, what looks to you like a one-day delay is actually a three-month delay, they just had a different launch scheduled the next day.

No. Launching a rocket is not like launching a plane. You have to get it to the platform and set it all up. You have to register with the feds. It's a whole thing. And here (well, at Vandenberg) there is just one SpaceX platform at the moment. I think they are talking about building another.

Launches slip *all the time*. I live about 50 miles from Vandenberg, so I keep an eye on when they go up to see if there's gonna be a good view. My guess is that about 25% of them slip - and when they do, mostly it's a 1 day slip.

So slipping to the next day can't be a big deal. Especially if you're planning it ahead of time. Unless you're pushing up against the next launch - which would be unusual.

Yes, there are windows for some satellites. But I think they are roughly daily with these.

Dude. I'm so old I have actually used a VT100. I actually used a teletype for a few minutes for the heck of it. No punch cards, though.

I'm pretty clear on what a terminal emulator is. I've probably used one more days than not over my more than half century.

My point was: **We're totally ditching github!!** - and yet their website still links only to source on github.

Huh. What's Ghostly?

Nope.

Yes. We should all be our own FDA, EPA, and OSHA. That worked *really well* in the past.

Yeah. I wish that were true. Trump was elected by a majority. And his current support numbers are still around 38%.

It turns out the number of idiots if really high. And the ones running the country and enforcing the 'laws' include a lot of 'em.

I would much rather go nearly anywhere in Europe.

I think this is the plan. Get the government contracts, then ownership, and make US citizens foot the bill for surveillance that will definitely be used against them. There really isn't anything more they can do with such limited thinking when it comes to algorithm. Tech Bros are trying to make their sci-fi dreams a reality. They are such idiots, maybe skilled in business grifting, those sci-fi futures written about are nightmares and the heroes typically dismantle them.

From their site:
"drive up to 40 miles per day completely off the grid".

Even half that would cover all my driving needs for our 2nd car (2 person/2 car family).

Am I the only one that find "times as cheap" annoying? I really want it to be 1/3 the cost. Meh.

I'm also curious how many cycles it's good for when compared to other battery tech.

News at 11. Again. I mean... really, this time for sure.

Is that really true? Many of the layoffs I've seen over the past year have been legitimately "removing layers", purging loads of fat in middle management.

Companies constantly go through cycles where they stretch to a very vertical structure with a manager for every three employees (exaggerating, but only slightly), and then there's the periodic flattening where they prune it out.

I will not be making a phone this year either. Maybe never.

I don't need a full slashdot story, though.

Actually had this conversation recently.

ios has pluggable keyboards. Why not have pluggable AI?

Every library/tool writer:

ChatGPT, write concise useful documentation for this tool/library.

Writing any docs (good or bad) used to take time. Writing any docs no longer really does. And if it's not already good at it, it'll probably continue to get better.
