Hot take: within 3 decades, building on orbit will be substantially cheaper than building on Earth, commercially at least. Open source designs will make this possible. Individuals will be able to get permits to build on orbit easier than on land, and spaceflight will be even cheaper and more accessible than we anticipate. AI tech will make self assembling factories dead simple to design. It will really open up when we have a reliable system for handling space debris.

Car industry predictions for the next decade: 1. Mazda brings back Mazdaspeed (or rebrand as MSR, which would be a big miss). They will take the CX-70 RWD based platform with the longitudinal 3.3t I6, and make a longitudinal , AWD Mazdaspeed 6 to compete with BMW, Acura, Cadillac, and now Dodge (hurricane). Probably auto only. 2. Toyota puts their boosted V8 in the Lexus F cars (and 500s). 3. Honda reveals a boosted V8 and an improved turbo 6, and an e-turbo V3 for bikes, and a larger odd number V engine for cars, maybe in place of a new turbo 6, like a V5. Maybe they won't invest in the odd Vs, but they are working on something BIG in secret, I smell it. Like new S2000 big, S2030 or something. 4. Dodge shifts the Charger to be electric only and creates a new Challenger that is gas only. 5. GM invests a huge amount of money in the LF3 twin turbo V6 so it can match the output of the Hurricane motor from Dodge. They release a Chevy version of the Cadillac CT4. They might release a new turbo 4 to compete with the EA888 and K series. 6. Ford releases a new Ford GT with over 1000 HP, RWD only, like the corvette ZR1. 7. Ford brings back a hot hatch, the market shits itself. 8. Dodge releases a new Viper to compete with the GR GT, Corvette ZR1, and whatever Ford comes out with. 9. Nissan eliminates the Z line, and brings back the GT-S. R36 flops hard unless they launch it with a GT-S Bet 50 sats on it, at least 5 predictions will come true.

Someone steal this idea so I don't half ass it in 10 years: 1. Take a split keyboard, like the truly split ones. 2. Put each side on the SIDES of a vertical tower. So you type by holding the sides, holding it almost like a bowling ball in your hands, so your wrists don't rest on the desk. 3. Make the keyboard part adjustable so you can adjust the angle your hands come in at. That way you can use it on the edge of your desk as a short person, reaching up, or you can extend your arms out and reach down into the keyboard. It would have to be compact so you don't block the monitor, but it would enforce touch typing and improve typing speed and accuracy, and it would solve ergonomic issues for most and reduce the risk of developing carpal tunnel. If someone else doesnt do it, I might when I am stable in my CS career. I would design an open source design to be 3D printed / manufactured and assembled, a la Lalboard. It would probably use a common split keyboard design as a base.

Star Wars is maybe the best sci fi fantasy universe, too bad its owned by shits for now

Bet money, Ford will bring back the Ford GT with a manual within 10 years

I've been cutting weight super hard and now I'm around 17% BFR, and suddenly I enjoy tomatoes...

My bash CLI is now a POSIX compliant sh CLI

These AIs have evolved to produce outputs that are purposely wrong in some small way so you have to use the model again.

Can anyone explain why Grok is $30/mo when its competition is $20/mo? And Gemini and Chad are both far superior... Grok feels more human but that isn't what LLMs are good at; they've sacrificed intelligence for a (potentially annoying) little quip every 5 outputs.

Just me or did Grok get way worse over the last few days? It was my best mentor a week ago and now it's fucking useless. It keeps saying shit that's wrong and then immediately in the same output saying "wait! That's actually wrong, its like..." And then doing it again 😭 fucking think quietly Is POSIX sh really that hard? I don't think so... I need like a book.

I was trained by a UFC fighter and his peers yet here I sit on my scrawny ass everyday NOT coaching the men who need what I have most. What the fuck is wrong with me? Is all that time, money, sweat, and blood meant to be wasted and lost?? I need my coaches to beat the FUCK out of me. It is ONE HOUR a day 🤦‍♂️ I'm miles from where I need to be. Sure my personal projects and career matter, but I need to dedicate FIVE FUCKING PERCENT of my time to other men. Like bro what THE FUCK 😭 I'm such a FOOL. I will hate this version of me in 20 years, no, FIVE YEARS! Lord forgive me.

I dreamt about fixing bugs the other day lmao and I woke up like oh God I have to fix that... Oh wait.. That was a dream 🤣 Now that I think about it idk if I've ever used or even seen a computer in a dream before

166 commits now at 2 AM 🤣 It only took like 10 squashed commits to go from v1.1 to v2.0 on my main project, AND I'm doing git flow. Didn't think 5 weeks would take me so far I made 43 commits total in the last 48 hours lol View quoted note →

I went from never using git to making 140 commits in my first month lol. To be fair I just found out about squashing. Its probably more like 90 if I squashed them.

Why hasn't google set up an independent foundation to fund GrapheneOS development? Google should be helping Graphene, and then merging features into Android. Google could indirectly own the privacy market...

Give modern coders AI is like giving chain smokers cigarette factories.
