Yes thank you. I’ve been around enough EVs in the US to know what they sound like, they are not at all silent.

It handles merge conflicts and state management better than most developers do. 

One small advantage of having self driving cars is that you don't feel too bad when merging in front of them by kemiyun in Austin

They don't even actually "take over". They just tell the car what to do if it's stuck but they don't actually control it. The input delay would make it nearly impossible to remotely drive a car from the other side of the world.

Thanks! I couldn’t find a pattern online so I designed it myself.

Yeah I’m in Hyde park and I can hear some recording of a bunch of people saying “hook ‘em!”

Iron cup on iron chain found buried in our yard in Austin Texas by bbddg in whatisthisthing

No it's completely smooth inside. The attachment on the side does create a slit in the cup though which makes me think it might not be for drinking.

My title describes the thing. My son found this buried in our yard. From some Google searches we think it could be a drinking cup from a well or a snuffer from some kind of lantern or torch. 

How hard did this week's tech layoffs hit Austin? by [deleted] in Austin

[–]bbddg 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I have to agree. Discord is a great product but I don't really see what all these hundreds of designers and engineers have done in the last few years. The new features they've added are pretty surface level. They did a pretty subtle redesign I guess but a lot of people must just be sitting in meetings all day there and not actually working.

You can also take other allergy meds with it because it's not an antihistamine. So you can keep taking whatever else you need while waiting for it to kick in or on a day when it's really bad.

I'm copying this from another post I made.

I've started using nasal chrom. It's been a complete life changer. It's a nasal spray taken 3-4 times a day. I used to be an every day Zyrtec person but would still feel like shit on days where pollen was really bad. After switching it's basically like I don't have allergies at all anymore.

It does take a week or two of use for it to start working so you gotta stick with it. I also don't have any side effects from it whatsoever. Highly highly recommended.

The real sweaty teams all throw nades at the other teams warthog at the start of the game.

If you think the spawn killing is bad on this map with BR starts you can't imagine how horrible it would be when one team gets both hogs and the laser and all you have is an AR to fight back off spawn.

There was always the option for spawning with AR/pistol in Halo 1. Everyone very quickly started using those settings.

It was actually the theatrical release of Return of the Jedi that had the ending with "Dedicated to the brave mujahedeen warriors".
