Yeah, I measured over 5000ppm in a taxi with two passengers. Showed the driver how to enable air intake (he didn’t know about the feature) and tried to explain this is deadly. Pretty sure this is commonplace globally.

Generally it’s a miracle to me so many people survive traffic on public roads, statistically.

Exacerbated by astonishing overuse for anything from a 2-minute endoscopy to a 15-minute hand surgery. The pursuit of “comfort” at the cost of fractional lobotomy.

Obviously an LLM and sad Carmack engages with slop to normalize it.

to be pedantic, a maxed out MBP is 90200 BRL in Brazil now before AC+ and software, around 16777 USD

Holding Fallout 1/2 as the best gaming experiences of my life for a long time, just recently discovered Fallout Nevada and Sonora that some kind talent also ported to WASM/Web — and it finally hit the spot for me after ~25 years.

decoding state can be bulkier than a key frame and opaque to the CPU if hardware acceleration is used

I wonder if caching semi-compressed frames would be more efficient in either case (CPU or GPU)

you'd have to "rebase" all the other frames to be derived from those

somewhat related: /rescue/* on every FreeBSD system since 5.2 (2004) — a single statically linked ~17MB binary combining ~150 critical tools, hardlinked under their usual names

once you actually need to configure Caddy, it is an abomination beyond imagination — the docs, Caddyfile, JSON config — all of them lack coherence or sensible design

never touching it again

good defaults matter; nginx configs were very concise and readable in 2005-2015 when I was using it heavily; http/3, ws, acme — perhaps new tech is yet to be incorporated properly (and maybe it never will)

Lithium is <10% cost of a battery. Presumably much less now. Doesn't affect the price of EVs that much yet.
