I’m working through moving from google to apple photos. It’s not straight forward, but this tool is fantastic:

The hard part is I don’t think there’s a way if they open sourced the server we can verify that what they’re actually running what is in the public repo.

Same. The weather widget is sometimes hours out of date

Yes it does support local connection, although in my experience it hasn’t worked well possibly because I have my IoT devices on a separate VLAN.

It’s a post from a month ago.

It’s a database

So that means the last of us is off limits.

It’s sad to see Firefox on the decline :(

Great film! That was my first Tom memory that came to mind as well.

That’s what this article is talking about.

TIL!

200? Did you pull that number out of a hat?

The hummer EV is around 9100 lbs.

If we assume the higher end of GVWR for a tractor trailer at 80,000 that’s 8.8 hummer EVs.

Tractor trailers are also typically size limited not weight limited for their loads, which would bring down the ratio much further.

Lastly having the weight distributed to many more tires (typically 18) instead of 4 must ease the load on the pavement, no?

I’m curious why that would be useful?

They most certainly do not. Each brand has their own battery platform.

What do they consider “active”?

Indeed. The only way to prevent it is to update minimum code to require a higher level efficiency.

Because what you said doesn’t make sense

We have a database with a few TB of data. We can create an aurora clone in around 10 mins give or take, but what we’ve found is that this the clone loads data in lazily as needed. Meaning the first time you hit a given table in a query it can be very slow. Afterwards it works well though

Do you have a citation for them being too big for SpaceX’s current rocket lineup? Very curious about this

Dopesick is a great series. Worth a watch!

How so?

There are plenty of people making enough power just from solar panels on their roof.

It doesn’t work everywhere of course and requires some form of storage or offsetting by powering the grid during the day.

That’s misleading. Yes efficiency drops as the ambient temperature drops, but they are still quite efficient below freezing.

For example here’s one of the units I run at my home: https://ashp.neep.org/#!/product/56518. It has a COP (coefficient of performance) ranging from around 4 at higher ambient temperatures, down to 1.8 at 5f. So it’s just over half the electricity input per watt of heat output for me to run my heat pump at 5f.

There are newer units and units designed to run in cold environments that achiever much higher COP below freezing than my example above.

Meh, zoom out to 1 month.

Candles can apparently output close to 100W of heat. Why do you say it wouldn’t make a difference in a small space such as a car?

Those URLs aren’t ad networks.

FWIW when renewing our home insurance they asked whether we had any EVs that charge or are parked in our garage. I’m not sure how it would have affected our premium as I don’t own an EV, but the fact that they’re even asking makes me think they must see it as an elevated risk.

Vite and snowpack are built on top of esbuild, so I’m not sure your comment makes sense.

Indeed I had it setup using a separate selenium chrome container. Still had the same issue

I tried this project recently, but it didn’t seem to handle pages that load content dynamically via XHR. At least the couple pages I tried at the time.
