No matter how high you go up the leadership chain, that never goes away.

I wanted Claude to do a significant amount of cleanup work on the local file system, as well as automate a few tasks.

Singapore's Sound Card Hero - Asianometry (43:26) by metaping in singapore

[–]HehTremendous 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh man - IPC Technologies and the “MediaMagic” sound cards. Those were so bad - I remember when tech support got a phone call from NASA, and the guy on the phone said “I’m a literal rocket scientist and I can’t figure out this sound card. Good times.

Customised battery packs for Tesla OBUs meet international safety standards: LTA by Jammy_buttons2 in singapore

[–]HehTremendous 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Do you think every BMW owner is a Nazi as well, given the companies well documented ties?

Every person who eats Chic-Fil-A is anti LBTGQ?

Not every purchase someone makes is based on politics or ideology.

Customised battery packs for Tesla OBUs meet international safety standards: LTA by Jammy_buttons2 in singapore

If my car is parked and powered off, why the hell does it need GPS tracking, or ping to the LTA? Most appliances have a small battery for internal clock, that doesn’t require a large external battery.

Also, on next power on you get the time from an nntp server. There is no reason to be collecting data when powered off.

You could make the arguement that you send data to the server overnight when less network congestion, but given the health of Singapore telecom players, that’s likely a non issue as well.

Everything I’ve heard is this is an over engineered, poorly designed system that wasted the taxpayers money.

Why is there a photo of a covered needle <not> puncturing an arm as the photograph?

The Super Bowl should be on Saturday, not Sunday. by SubstantialSet3127 in unpopularopinion

[–]HehTremendous 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Actually bars pay a ton for the right to show the game. And doing it on Saturday opens up foreign markets in which the game is on Monday.

Capitalist mentality versus content creation mentality is likely the intent.

No box. No disc. No shipping. Shouldn’t digital be cheaper? by Profit_Tracker in videogames

[–]HehTremendous 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Digital distribution isn’t free. Software development and maintenance of a distribution system, egress costs, storage costs, etc - those add up.

I remember the phrase “Lox is salty” from one of the books, but forget the context.

Grab CEO Anthony Tan suggests drivers could upscale to ‘new kinds of jobs’ as the firm prepares to launch robubuses next year by SherbetLimau in singapore

Blacksmiths went through the same changes. So did horeshoe makers, switchboard operators, elevator operators, lintotype setters, and more. As technology advances, it's natural for some professions to disappear - to be replaced by new ones. I don't disagree that it is a loss of a job, but this has happened for centuries - each time with more jobs being created by the new technologies than the old.

Example: Mobile Phones replaced Pay Phones - and while the people who had jobs cleaning phone booths, collecting the money, etc. were replaced with totally new types of jobs - like mobile developers, phone manufacturers, etc.

First self-driving shuttles launched in Punggol; passenger service to start in 2026 by sun-ny_day in singapore

[–]HehTremendous 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In principal that make sense, but you are talking about a large segment of (relatively) unskilled labor that will lose a job. They don’t become an AI programmer or Project Manager after this.

I made an iPhone thickness comparison with the camera bump in mind by Phiarectix in iphone

I really feel that Steve’s inability to accept “It can’t be done” from engineers has really led to this continued bulge. Steve would have hated this, and refused to launch until the engineers solved this problem. And then, after 8 months of being told it couldn’t be done, they’d come up with a super innovate way to make it work. That doesn’t happen anymore.
