I would go for that tarry smoky smell you get from a heap of bbq briquettes just as they are set on fire.

If MS can go after notepad++ then Bjarne Stroustrup can go after C#?

I'm extremely wary of anything written from 2024 onwards by lesser known authors.

I've spotted a book once in the wild that actually had a ghibli-style piss-tinted cover image, which was a dead giveaway, but it's not always so clear cut.

Game engines most certainly have a stank to them that makes it easy(ish) to identity.

I've been tying shorts for more than 35 years. I can do it with my eyes closed. I can do it while running, or while swimming. I don't need to look down, finagle an end into an ampersand and whatnot. I don't have to worry about grabbing the right loop+end combo to increase or decrease tightness. I just undo the knot, and redo it according to preference.

I'd argue I'm just about as fast adjusting my shorts than this guy in the video.

VS code came out just as Atom was gaining traction in the more-than-a-text-editor-but-also-not-a-full-fat-ide market.

After testing vs code for a bit everyone realized what hot shit Atom was and jumped ship.

Yet it's the paper handler that constantly jams and the printhead is fine after alignment.

Does you EV not have a charge rate setting for AC charging?

Or do you want such a feature when DC charging?

A bodega is often (and usually unavoidably) more expensive than a bigger grocery retail chain that's further away.

Price conscious buyers will opt to drive to the bigger, farther away store because it has more variety, and the essentials are cheaper.

I know I do this.

> So the play here is obvious, use the teleoperation as training data for a more general purpose AI controller.

Strong disagree: the play here is to use teleoperation, claim it's AI, make a shit-ton of money and cash out before the house of cards come tumbling down.

Oh 100% haha. Looking at that video on their website I'm pretty sure it's mostly just remote control.

The conditions are ripe for a builder.ai esque scam but with robotics.

The very first paragraph in TFA says:

> ... rules on when and for what reason an employer could contact an employee outside of a normal work schedule.

This is no blanket 'thou shalt not call thy employees after hours' law.

All this is doing is preventing employers from effectively pulling a bait and switch, by implicitly expecting employees to be available 24/7 for whatever reason. If you've ever been in a situation where your boss just fucking calls you because of some asinine reason ("hey I just had an idea...) then you know how terrible it is. Nothing spoilt my weekends as much as a boss calling and I'm thinking "o shit prod is down" or whatever, and then it's just him asking on a delivery date for a feature because he's having drinks with the client now and they were asking.

Now, if there is a requirement for after hours availability, it has to be stated in the contract, and the compensation must accordingly reflect this additional requirement.

I think it's great this is happening.
