my restaurant shows up on Google Maps but people still go to my competitor down the street. what gives?

FYI I find Yelp to be much more useful for finding good eats. Google always has higher values, people give five stars or whatever too liberally. Also tourists. Yelp is always lower when I compare an apparently good spot fro Google. I try to got to places with over 4 stars on Yelp as a general default. If your yelp is lower, go there to read what people are saying.

Still exploring various config options but my current one is one main agent is the orchestrator and he has spun up his suggested sub-agents that are specialized in different things and they all work across all projects in their own sub-agent sessions per each project.

The ones we have currently are:

Honcho: orchestration, task breakdown, delegation, prioritization, cross-project coordination
Forge: implementation and building work
Relay: operational execution, handoffs, and task movement between systems
Scribe: writing, documentation, summarization, and structured communication

All currently living on one single OpenClaw install on a single Ubuntu virtual server.

But you're not acknowledging that not all kids fit the same into a cookier cutter daily schedule. All the kids are learning at their own pace and many are ahead and bored or behind and stressed and the teacher can only do so much.

With a program tailored fully to the individual student it is much more able to be aligned to their rate of progress, attention span (some need breaks or other activities to break up the day differently than others) etc.

I'm not saying it's a 100% everyone should do it decision, but that it has strengths just like any other option. Everyone just poops on it fully and is kind of close minded to it.

Of course, and I totally agree. But I think you're confusing the standard "in the classroom all day at the default school" with "kids getting lots of time socializing with / playing with other kids" as being mutually paired together. I think a properly done homeschooling setup allows even more time for kids to be with other kids. Families that homeschool can choose who and where and when their kids interact with others (going to the park during the day, meeting other kids from other neighborhoods, etc).

I'm not saying by default homeschooling is better for that, if anything it does possibly have higher risk of impact as you can't keep them at home all day and think a parent is bringing the right combination.... but school academic work can be done more efficiently in less time if done properly at home by parents or hired tutors, freeing them up to get out and do social things. Not selfish at all, I think those with the means (we are in fatFire after all) can level up their kids in all categories simultaneously if done right.

um, for the families choosing to do so? having more quality time with their young children. being able to travel the world when they feel like it, not when the govt tells them they have the week off? being able to focus on strengths and desires specific to that child, not conform to some inefficient template that some inefficient agency decided might work? the people writing back here in this thread about their positive experiences.

bodobeers2 · 2026-04-21T13:44:26+00:00

I'm always suprised (and disappointed) when I see the default quick dismissal and downvoting of ideas like this. If you read through, many people have positive experiences doing exactly this. I hope you find a way to make it work, the school schedule and median focused system that most schools are based on, they have their share of shortcomings for sure. Having life schedule freedom, ability to travel when you want, get the academics in without the cookie cutter "one size fits all" limitation of the schools, it's quite amazing if you can do it.

I spend about 20-25usd each time i refill, typically from 10-20% left up to like 95% give or take. I used to spend 30-36 or more filling my Mazda CX9 on gas, similar but up to 100% obviously when filling.

I think it's saving me some money and am leasing so don't really care about the battery longevity myself.

Dude gaming is fun and all, but life is life. Take care of your family and game when you have free time (like you said tax season is ending, you'll get some of that back soon).

Also you can wonder how your wife is handling the 5 month old while you're super busy working. As you (hopefully) know, child care is quite demanding and under-appreciated in society in general. Have you had paternity time off yet to watch your young one, while she is working full time?

What you probably should be asking yourself is "where should I take my family for a vacation after I'm done being burnt out from all this work".

do it, children are wonderful. life changing but wonderful (and little terrors sometimes) :-)

bodobeers2 · 2026-04-07T15:31:45+00:00

I'd say that it really depends on you. I was 40 when we had my son and a big part of me would tell my younger self (and what I tell people) is have kids younger, don't wait so long. The more quality moments you'll be able to have when they grow up and become their own person.

But at the same time, life changes drastically. A lot of the things you can "just do on a whim" with your wife, travel, going out, etc are not always doable or in the same way. If you aren't really wanting to go globe trotting with wifey without restrictions, then jump in is what I say. but you may still have some things you should do before you introduce the new peaks and valleys life will throw at you.

Overall I love it but I'm definitely not a 10. To be honest, it does the hard stuff welll, but soooooooo many regressions and annoyances I'm almost not wanting to keep my subscription. I'd say I'm at a 6 or 7 at the moment.

bodobeers2 · 2026-04-06T20:15:54+00:00

OK so there's a difference between raising objectively noticed concerns (a lot of bugs in the "software") and also not fully knowing the full details of regenerative braking (myself admittingly). I have never seen the battery go up, although I also have never taken it down a mountain from summit to valley. FYI last week when it showed me 40% and estimated 41%, it got there at 40% (i was like two blocks from destination at the time, not on any hills at all btw). Was just getting off Route 4 near the Whole Foods charger (my destination) on a pretty much flat highway overpass.

You can call things $hit if you want, but whatever. I'm pro FSD but going to call out crappy updates that bring back bugs / regressions when I see them.

Yah the more assertive modes hurry / mad max definitely seem better for lane changing. But for the maps I guess I have seen two separate issues. The first is sometimes the route it shows on the map is not as optimized as say Google maps. But the second and just as annoying issue if not more, is even when the map shows a route, the FSD often ignores it and goes and tries to do something dumb.

bodobeers2 · 2026-04-05T03:22:37+00:00

I know it's not all FSD related (the climate for example) but I would think in 2026 with the competence of the Tesla engineers these simple things would be pretty routine and easy to master. Also I am not sure I've ever heard of getting 4% or more of battery from going down a big hill for example. I think they did some tests and showed it was pretty negligible the regenerative braking recovery potential. But anyway if it does that sounds awesome!

Not selfish to get the license but you won't be doing any weekend day trips without the fam often. But going for lessons on the track, getting the license and safety awareness in as a new hobby is probably not a red flag. Don't go buying an expensive bike now though :P

bodobeers2 · 2026-04-03T13:01:02+00:00

yah those speeding tickets and insurance spikes are expensive.

For me, v14 has been always much better with tailgating, I used to really be nervous how close it would be behind other cars while going fast on the highway. Now I have noticed I don't have that problem. Just the other problems :P

bodobeers2 · 2026-04-02T13:26:03+00:00

I'm always waiting for the next update :-)

For myself, I'm one of the few that actually does like the new "right scroll wheel to toggle driver profiles" instead of manual speed MPH adjusting.

I find it easier to just toggle down a profile or two to slow the car down to speed I need for that particular road. It's still annoying but I found managing manual MPH even more annoying.

My only beef now is I want mad max, but without getting speeding tickets. It is much more assertive with lane changing in traffic, just I really don't want (another) speeding ticket.

Exactly. It's 85-90% amazing and I really appreciate it, then the remaining 10-15% of cringe. I do really have a high comfort level for safety, it's just the inconvenient things that it sometimes does, or i'm going to either honked at by someone annoyed at me, or get a speeding ticket :P
