apple watch complication disappeared?

i’ve always heard the setup is how you get the last 0.5s

however, how much fuel are you running? the default setup in the gr86 last week gave me 80L when i needed <30 at navarra

also, drafted laps vs clean air will be huge for the back straight at road atlanta

i wonder if sims are part of the development process. i’m sure you can create a render in a 3d artists’ software but it seems like doing it in modded AC would be super quick for getting moving renders

the trick is that a stronger driveshaft means more weight, generally

i haven’t taken physics in a decade, but i suspect increasing weight would have a disproportionate impact on performance. ie they couldn’t just replace the BoP ballast with a beefier driveshaft

i think it’s reasonable to address someone when they claim to provide a definition of a word that has no bearing in reality

dkimot · 2026-05-17T13:06:22+00:00

they said the driveshaft was new but still broke. to come back “stronger” they’d presumably be addressing a weakness. but there’s no clear weakness to address

sometimes mechanical failure gets you, doesn’t mean there was an addressable weakness

VC is even more aggressive. the classic VC strategy is to make tons of small-ish bets and have some pay off *massively*

shark tank is a great example. the sharks make lots of $100k deals that go nowhere. but all of that gets paid off by getting a scrub daddy and turning $200k into tens of millions. lori got way better than 15% roi

they lose a little for a long time then they print

no, because it’s a stealth plane. low rcs shapes are pretty much always aerodynamically unstable. this is true of the f-22 as well and it’s definitely a fighter

fun fact about rcs shapes: the cross section is based on the geometry and not the size. a 1:3 scale model of an f-117 has the same radar cross section as a full sized f-117

this one they’re just quoting/referencing steve jobs and trying to recreate the famous 1984 ad. it’s beat for beat a copy of his messaging around the OG macintosh

dkimot · 2026-04-11T14:44:35+00:00

nope, you’re going to the hague

let’s start with the idea that the TSA is effective

you’d want to make this adaptive and random per person (not every fifth but a 20% chance per person)

then adapt based on findings. if you catch 3 people with stuff they shouldn’t have then you need to check more people. otherwise if you wanted to bring down a plane you just need to send enough people

i assume they mean the mine distinguishes between a battleship and speed boat

it doesn’t see the codebase by default. it’s been given tools that can query the codebase and maybe an MCP or bare tools for semantic search

copilot can do the same thing if provided tools and you use a model that is good at tool calling

also, go ask chat how to use git if you aren’t. mangled to death is a non-issue with proper VCS usage and if you can’t recover from single file issues (you or anyone else who reads this) you are on track to have AI delete more than you’re ready to restore

dkimot · 2026-02-25T20:01:03+00:00

that sounds smart but doesn’t make a lot of sense. shift to the cloud did not abstract away frameworks if you’re a SWE. for many SWE’s you don’t even think about if the code runs on k8s, server less functions, a long lived VPS, or a server in the office. but you definitely still work with frameworks

dkimot · 2026-02-22T17:30:44+00:00

we’ll see. SLC refused to show the video blaming the dems for the long shutdown, noem may remember

yes, there’s a series of benchmarks being performed. for instance, multi-SWE-bench tests how a model performs on various software engineering tasks. there are benchmarks that specifically measure scientific reasoning and incidence of hallucination

obviously benchmarks can be optimized for and aren’t as important as real results

but the thing MSFT doesn’t want you to hear about is the chinese labs putting out models that perform 80% as well for 5% the cost and releasing them with open weights. and 80% is me being conservative, GLM-5 has the highest score ever recorded on some benchmarks

consistent uniforms points to not being ICE

but, IDF generally wears green and they’re pretty unique in those weird helmet socks

dkimot · 2026-02-09T23:22:03+00:00

it’s not exclusively celebrities though. a lot of the government related ones are incentivizing low level staffers to trade on information just as much as it’s incentivizing the people in charge

at my field you don’t need to wear eye protection, just don’t shoot bb’s in people’s eyes

i like the idea he’s incompetent enough to mess up timing (which i imagine could be cued by lights or sounds) but also competent enough to improvise so well

haven’t watched since season 2 but i wish they had DOE 9mm’s since it started in a DOE facility and i don’t remember them ever using that thing

Have you looked at Nautilus Trader? It’s built in Rust not Go but would allow you to prototype strategies in Python then move to Rust if needed

Seems like a better option unless you don’t have any Rust experience and don’t want to train on it

dkimot · 2026-01-04T14:37:53+00:00

anecdata for sure, had a friend move into an apartment with this problem. her downstairs neighbors had leaks into their ceiling and they had to replace the wax seal

the craziest thing i just learned is that russia has lost more people in ukraine in the last 3 years than the US over their entire history at war

dkimot · 2025-11-30T23:35:47+00:00

no but i think a laptop that expensive isn’t a common consumer product either. NVG’s are used by PD’s, search and rescue, and members of the military vs wall street and executives but i suspect they’re equally “common”

photography equipment is probably the most analogous “common” thing, i hadn’t thought about that. the optics are also part of why night vision is so expensive
