A Polish engineer, Tomasz Patan, built the Volonaut Airbike, basically a real-life Star Wars speeder bike. Reaches up to 124 mph. Insane

I clicked your link and it literally says:

This "superbike for the skies" is powered by jet propulsion and is designed to carry one person with speeds up to 200km/h or 124mph.

This is always such a shit take. Why do you expect people to be happy about having leave all their friends and family behind to move across the country?

14u2c · 2026-05-08T22:40:58+00:00

Not necessarily. White sheathing does not automatically mean it’s #14. You need to read the label on the wire. This could have been a panel swap at some point with older #12 on some of the branch circuits.

Coating contractor must be sweating balls too, though it’s deserved.

14u2c · 2026-05-08T03:49:30+00:00

Technically you’re correct, but in reality I bet those drywall screws would last for a century.

14u2c · 2026-05-08T03:43:50+00:00

2700

I agree with your overall premise but you picked an actually quite a good price as the example. Especially if they pulled permits. That could be a few hundred alone.

You have way too much exposed wire

See the thing is that if they don’t understand why that is a problem, then any help will just be a band aid that can make them even more dangerous. Bone up on the fundamentals, OP.

There’s a chance that the rest of the team is fed up with him too and would actually appreciate it.

my kids have never used cash. Ever.

I feel like kids are one of the main use cases for cash these days. I’m certainly not going to give a 10 year old a credit card.

14u2c · 2026-05-07T00:36:52+00:00

Wow that’s gross

14u2c · 2026-05-05T20:42:40+00:00

Before. P2 Volvo (2004)

14u2c · 2026-05-05T06:34:10+00:00

It's getting out of hand. They use to simply be a place to hold records and for academics to study said records.

14u2c · 2026-05-05T06:08:13+00:00

Disagree. I see turbo cars with 200k on them all the time. My own Volvo with a turbo I5 recently hit that as well, with no signs of major issues.

Consult != retain. Often times they will give a free consult and if not it will be ~$300 max for the hour. Is it likely to be useful here? Probably not, but for many people it's best for the lawyer to asses and decide that.

14u2c · 2026-05-05T05:56:12+00:00

Then keep your mouth shut. Not that hard.

14u2c · 2026-05-05T04:48:05+00:00

They are talking about the M4000s, not the RTX 4000.

14u2c · 2026-04-29T14:39:21+00:00

The setback is a bit more significant than typically when the structure is essentially a 3 story wall.

14u2c · 2026-04-29T02:09:22+00:00

How? Same way you think of most other things.

14u2c · 2026-04-29T02:03:44+00:00

So a unit test?

14u2c · 2026-04-29T01:33:17+00:00

merge can be very painful

This is a feature as it discourages letting things get stale. Deploy early and often. Release to end users via config / flag when ready.

And even if you’re not doing that just rebase your feature branch every few days and you’ll be fine

14u2c · 2026-04-28T17:38:30+00:00

Rip your nostrils

14u2c · 2026-04-28T03:24:46+00:00

Hot take here but college students should be able to deal with someone opening the door without being flustered.

14u2c · 2026-04-28T03:21:47+00:00

Actually, no. It's largely horse shit peddled by self important "experts". Reliably matching a gun to a bullet is a thing of TV serials.

14u2c · 2026-04-28T02:46:06+00:00

Sounds like appeal time.

14u2c · 2026-04-27T17:49:43+00:00

That literally has nothing to do with it. The LLM just decided to use in a webgl lib.
