> Trains and busses are far denser than cars, and that's part of the appeal. You can move more people around with less space needed.

This is true only for contrived examples comparing the vehicles directly. Comparing the real-world throughput of a highway vs. a rail line (in the US) and the density advantage goes away.

> Why can't I get on a train from Columbus to go to Philly?

The US has a different approach to property rights than China, so constructing a new right of way through thousands of private properties is much more expensive. Building new rail lines has massive environmental costs (it's a lot of steel and concrete!). Even once built, it's very hard to compete with a $100 flight that gets you between Columbus and Philly faster.
First time seeing a low profile keyboard on par with a magic keyboard. Actually would fit in a bag :)

I have not and I believe you. But seriously, the incentive for automating anything is cost. Even if it's nicer, the removal of the driver does not make it a "premium" service, it makes it an automated service. The expectation is lower cost not higher. I know that supply and demand and competition right now might be at a place where the same price for eventually the same service is expected. But still "at no additional cost" read hilarious.
>and you think the Qualcomm RTOS can do what exactly?

Well that's the point, it's a black box so there's no telling what it can and can't do. There's what Qualcomm says it can do, and then there's what it can do.

The US doesn’t try to build cheap One-Way Attack drones like Ukraine because the US has the most advanced air force in the world and utilizes that for surveillance and combat. They have advanced communications and battlefield coordination tools so that a small unit commander doesn’t need to carry/use drones. They can get surveillance from those Global Hawks and call in strikes from Reapers. The drones allow Ukraine to conduct asymmetric warfare against a larger force with more resources. The US is the larger force, and so those types of drones are a niche product, not a primary weapon.

China has "democracy" in the same way it has the freedom of speech.

In China, you can vote for The Party, or, for The Party. Much like how in the USA, you can vote for the red wing of the Centralized Corporate Power Party, or the blue wing of the Centralized Corporate Power Party.

Much like how in China, you have the freedom to stand in Tienanmen Square and shout "Down with the USA, long live Chairman Mao, long live The Party" much like you can do so in Times Square or in front of 1600 Penn or in downtown LA.

It's also a surveillance device in its design. The mechanism of it is to connect to one or more third-party-owned towers to bidirectionally transpond data. By the nature of the machine, calculating roughly where the machine is every time it transponds is very straightforward.

"I want to send and receive messages from you but you're not allowed to know anything about me" is, at first pass, a tall order. We can sort of get that from the postal system and very little else in terms of communications technologies (and even then, if you screw with the network the postal service in the US is empowered federally to hunt you down).

I think cases are the biggest issue with DIY keyboards.

The plastic laminate of my ergodoxen was stiff, sturdy, and heavy. The exposed bolts were a little industrial. Very much had a DIY look.

My Lily58 started out with the PCB "case" which is horrible. Way too flexible, and switches falling out as soon as you attempted to transport it. (Easy transport was my main motivation for the smaller keyboard.)

Eventually, I was able to convince someone on Etsy to print me a 3d case for it. It is ok. Much better than the PCBs. However, switches still have a tendency to pop out when moving the keyboard.

The case on the Bayleaf makes me wonder if other keyboards could do a better job with case offerings.

I've always gone with wired keyboards because dealing with batteries seems annoying.

Looking at this keyboard makes me realize that I've optimized for functionality but this beauty is optimized for form.
It seems to me that there's a fundamental difference between how you would train an AI to provide a reasonable, coherent text-based or languaged-based response as part of a conversation; and how you would train it to optimize for a specific set of rules or goals. If you asked an LLM to formulate and explain a tic-tac-toe strategy, I expect it would respond with something robust.
None of this is music. It is noise that sounds likes music. Pretty analogous to how AI slop is not information, but just words that are arranged to look like information.

Realistically you've got about 50 or so keys and you are using all of them all the time, so you're not really forgetting where anything is. Many also customize where symbols, media keys, etc., are - so they are positioned where it makes most sense to you. Outside of maybe a 2 week learning period I haven't needed to look up where a key is at all

The other thing is that many keys will have multiple functions - so what do you print on them? e.g. my j key also doubles as # and the down key. Some are maybe even more frequently used key combinations, e.g. I have a ``` and a => key

Building highways is very expensive, but much much less expensive than new rail. The most cost effective and environmentally sound thing to do is to make the most possible use out of existing infrastructure. As safe and predictable drivers (no fast stops and starts, swerving, or accidents), Waymo smooths traffic for everyone.

Time to pick up the slack Europe. You spent decades shit talking the US, laughing at how much the US spends on defense, calling the US the "world police", demanding they close military bases, etc.

Now that the US is packing up and going home, the same people are screaming for the US to stay and continue being the exact thing they shit talked the US for.
The problem with this is that its almost all blue states that are in the North East, so its Trump's "enemies" that will feel the bulk of this in the form of higher energy prices.

Oddly its Mexican tariffs that will have a bigger deterrent to Trump as his base is the red southern region of the US that take more Mexican imports.

Looks like inflation is back on the table for the US, and this time they've done it to themselves via higher prices from tariffs.

One other thing to watch is that this is currently weakening the Canadian dollar and Mexican peso, which means the USD is getting stronger which is the opposite of what Trump wants ultimately.

So far the markets in all countries just hate this news.

China has taken the following actions as well this morning

- China to Levy Tariffs on Some US Products Including Chicken

- China to Impose up to 15% Tariff on Some US Goods

- China to Levy Tariffs on Some US Products Including Soybean

- China Adds 10 US Firms to Unreliable Entity List

Smart as this targets the US farmers, so Trump is almost certainly going to do what he did last time and just print money and hand it out like candy to the US farmers.

The worst case outcome and one that analysts at all major sell site institutions are now considering to be a possibility is worldwide stagflation.

Normally the economy of one or two powerhouses is humming along while others are going through cyclical downturns which helps smooth things over.

The United States seems very determined to crash the entire worlds economy at the same time, which will mean all major economies will be printing and spending cash all at the same time in an effort to prop up their economies.

The US has just started their printing press, and Beijing has been doing so for a year to try and fix their already hurting economy.

The world is in for a lot of pain in the next 2 years.

I bought a STM32 dev board and I'm pretty certain I can do bare metal programming on it too. It does have its ROM pre-loaded with the bootloader and maybe something else, but I don't have to use any library if I do not want.

Different products -- nuclear provides grid stability, power quality and dedicated baseload power. Rooftop solar provides some residential power but not helpful for the grid at large -- requires upgrades to the local infrastructure and decreases reliability. All manageable but people constantly think of power in terms of how much is $/kwh - there is soo many more important qualities to powering the grid than strictly cost.

Conscription as an enemy army marches through your borders is neither uncommon nor concerning.

This line is essentially devoid of meaning without naming anything specific. The point is that what USA is sending is tremendous ROI in terms of damage to its enemies.

Are you familiar with Budapest Memorandum? Even if not official allies with a mutual defense pact, United States had commitments and more importantly the following dual interests that support aiding Ukraine:

1.) Weakening Russia
2.) Global stabilization / aggression deterrence

I'm pretty sure the previous author meant that it's irrelevant to Trump ("big beautiful ocean" is his quote), who clearly believes in "power with no morals". Machiavelli would be proud.

It is highly relevant to the American population - but the sad fact is, most Americans don't care and haven't cared for a long time. The US' foreign policy has been built mostly on "power" (hard or soft) with very little in the way of morals or concern for the actual people -- sometimes, a bit here and there, but mostly it's a PR move.

But at least having the _pretence_ of the moral highground forced the US to do some good amidst all of its bad. Now that Trump has cast that aside and "naked power" is the mot du jour, there's no need to do keep doing any good anymore. Thus: help Russia keep killing Ukrainians, and help Israel keep killing Palestinians.

One could contrast, say, the etiquette and tech of the Fediverse.

... even then, I question if the rhetoric matches the reality. Many users of Mastodon, for instance, will decry the harvesting of data or creation of search engines, then run what is essentially an open relay of every post their users create to any other node that purports to be a legit Mastodon instance. The organic growth goal conflicts with the data-control goal.

I think my situation is pretty rare, but mine flare up periodically, maybe every other year, almost on a schedule.

It usually starts in one of the reds, and spreads inch by inch over the course of a few weeks. It gets raised and itches like crazy, and lasts 2-3 days in a small area before spreading. It's a real struggle not to scratch.

Unfortunately 1/4 of my body is essentially one giant tattoo, so it's got plenty of room to spread. The small patches of surrounding un-inked skin are completely unaffected, so I suspect it's definitely the ink.

When the first red tattoo I got REALLY swelled up, the tattoer told me it's rare but he'd seem it before, and some people don't take red well. From what I understand the red ink 20 years ago was formulated differently than now. I'm not entirely convinced it's just that color, because all of mine itch.
Countering pushed narratives with facts and arguments is a complete failure. It does not reach the emotional core, which is "us versus them".

Well, no, actually. It's not hard to look at the expected effects of brexit and examine whether they are occurring. For example, decline in small forms exporting to Europe due to trades friction.

"But the working assumption of the Office for Budget Responsibility (OBR), the government's independent official forecaster, is still that Brexit in the long-term will reduce exports and imports of goods and services by 15% relative to otherwise. It has held this view since 2016, including under the previous Government."

"And the OBR's other working assumption is that the fall in trade relative to otherwise will reduce the long-term size of the UK economy by around 4% relative to otherwise, equivalent to roughly £100bn in today's money."

Email: islerryan@gmail.com

I am a senior full-stack developer with over 5 years of experience building web applications for the United States weather service (NOAA, NWS, OHD, NOMADS, etc.), Minnesota schools, and non-profit organizations. I started out as a gamer who wondered how games like RuneScape worked under the hood. I started playing around with Java and ActionScript and found my way to love JavaScript and its many frameworks. I made some games, music, and websites and here I am today.

In my professional experience, I started out designing/building front-end apps and grew to love the back-end & cloud as well (it is so nice to write database/API/CMS helper binaries quickly in Go, Python, or C++!). My most involved project was working across the stack on a hole-in-one application for the weather service that consolidates a bunch of old applications. I am flexible and love learning new technology & procedures. My previous work comrades always described me as high-spirited, excited, and always amped to take on new tasks (although I must be honest - moving those 10,000+ vanilla JS files was a bit cumbersome).

All in all, I am very excited to jump into something new. I am actively looking for remote full-time or contract work. In the meantime, I am cranking on my personal projects, such as Stone King API & Magic: The Gather Assistant v2 (and a new, secret project similar to what Hans Zimmer uses as a touch pad for extending his DAW shortcuts).
This is why we never should have invented the phonograph. People who want to listen to music can just buy a record, making it literally impossible for them to perform an activity humans ENJOY doing. Without it everyone would surely be making all their own music, and nothing valuable would be lost
I agree there is a time and place for it. 5 years is a bit long IMO. The S&P500 is up 250% in the last 5 years, while savings would have netted maybe 10% growth in that time. I imagine some sort of hedge would be appropriate, but have definitely been burnt by taking money out of the market too soon.

Im just shocked that some people think stock is some SV alternate reality. I grew up in a rural community before the internet, and even then, nobody I knew was long term saving for houses or retirement with a savings account.

That wiki article cites https://www.cdc.gov/ncipc/wisqars (which I guess is now https://wisqars.cdc.gov/) and doesn't really show us how that number came about.

But let's say you look at 2022 data for Fatal/NonFatal Injury Reports.[1]

49,476 suicide deaths with 14.85/100k crude rate and 14.25 age-adjusted rate.

There is no 'suicide attempt' category that I can find for NonFatal. There's a self-harm category.[2]

544,992 self-harm non-fatal injuries with 163.52/100k crude rate and 172.91 age-adjusted rate.

Sure, we could divide those out and reach roughly 1 in 11 to 1 in 12. But if you look at the definition for self-harm intent in the coding manual[3] you'll see that it's not just suicide -- it's all forms of self-harm including mutilation.

So it's probably not an accurate number, even for a naive estimate. I would want a better source (surely someone somewhere has written a paper on this).

Russia is in clear violation of it, but it never promised US military intervention. All it promises is we'd go to the Security Council about it.

OK, but how then?
3D printed cases do vary in quality quite a bit, something made with a cheap consumer FDM printer won't be nearly as nice as a resin SLA or nylon MJF/SLS case printed on an industrial-grade machine and professionally finished. The latter processes are pretty accessible these days from companies like JLCPCB or PCBWay.

You can even get them to 3D print metal parts with an SLM process, although that's on the pricier side.
yeah, i suppose that I haven't personally considered it to be "very personal", but in today's world, I am evaluating stuff pretty frequently.
There is not a single country in the world that has given more money and weapons to Ukraine than the United States.

If the people in Europe find that to be a lackluster response, then it is not surprising that Trump sent Vance over to humiliate them, because they need a wake-up call and they needed it yesterday.
