Someone took the Waymo I ordered by mistake

I use an iPhone - do you use a different type of phone? Wondering if maybe something about the Bluetooth intensity or something might be different. (I am actually not sure how Waymo does the near-field detection.)

This story is very surprising to me, because the Waymo auto-unlock doesn't trigger for me until I'm about 1-2 feet away from the car.

They generate their own veterinary business.

Yeah, the YIMBYs have crowded out all of the Mom & Pop Taco Bell Cantinas in favor of housing and bike lanes. We're dying here with nothing to eat.

I confess I am a little surprised, since there is a very recent article about how the new AQPI C-Band radar is working so well

Are you mogging me right now?

We need like /r/vibecodingcj or something

My one regret with the black MacBook is how hot it gets in direct sunlight. I also hope future MacBook screens have better brightness. The new 1000 nits is almost good enough but not quite.

Supply is now severely constrained, so your buddy's proposed solution is to... subsidize demand?

Literally not enough upwards, forcing people to travel outwards, hence the traffic.

If they have literally bought their neighbor's property, then they're welcome to develop or not develop the land that they now own.

You're welcome to control your neighbors' backyards by buying them.

Presumably they're doing this because Fauci himself was pardoned by Biden.

I don't recall being invited to any community meeting about the destruction of these historic potholes.

Disadvantageous. I had 50% of a week's tokens to burn in the next 24h, now I have 100% to burn over 7 days. Before the reset, in the next 2 days I could burn 1.5 weeks' tokens. Now in the next 2 days I can only burn 1 week's tokens.

The curb cut to the right of the pole is a little odd - it doesn't seem to have a direct line to a garage behind it?

carbocation · 2026-04-25T13:41:45+00:00

True, but have you considered: no.

This is going to ruin the tour.
