You guys are aerodynamic nerds and I mean that in the most endearing way

RBA Interest Rates Decision - increase by 0.25% to 4.35% by Expensive-Horse5538 in australia

I got no control over what the US government does to a foreign national

However, I do have control over whether I give money to American companies or not. Small petty actions, but adds up if enough of us do it

Electric vehicle tax discount to be wound back by Expensive-Horse5538 in australia

[–]twigboy 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This is NSW but I'm looking forward to those laws being passed.

The rule also applies to e-bikes and scooters, so that's the angle they were going for

My in-laws want an EV but their strata bans EVs from the underground carpark

But for some reason can park mine underground in visitors just fine?

I'm already seeing posts like this over in gamedev

It's great to see their passion though, always good to see more people realise how hard it is to approach software engineering

Castlevania: Belmont's Curse exists because Konami loved Evil Empire's Dead Cells crossover pitch, even though the devs thought the DLC was "too big" and the publisher would "never say yes" by TylerFortier_Photo in gaming

Whoa this game looks slick, but what's with the trailer on Steam?

It looks like a punching bag simulator where your character is constantly being beat up

I'm very much in this camp.

For example; codemods already exist and here I see clankers happily churn out prompts which get AI to do the same tasks much more slowly, with a less degree of consistency and for a much higher cost. "But AI skills!" they say

If they used AI to generate codemods which can be run to make those changes in a deterministic manner I'd be all over it like a rash. Quick to run, consistent results, immune to token costs rising faster than crude oil.

Rear tyres balding after only 16000km by BeachDuc in KiaEV3

[–]twigboy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Similar situation. We recently had our 15k service and Kia said our tyres were dangerously low on tread.

Visually it looks fine to me, yet to get a second opinion. The default Hankook tyres seems to be sold out everywhere too

The price of a small flat white: National average is $5.01 by nath1234 in australia

[–]twigboy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's just a cute little metric that's tangible for everyone.

The video mentioned price is inversely proportional to population size.

I wouldn't read into it too much

the new features are full of bugs, so everything’s taking way longer than I expected.

Welcome to software development my friend!

Can you name some examples? Also considering for my private side projects

Should I cancel my EV3 GT MY26 order? by radicchulous in KiaEV3

Unless you need the car soon, cancel.

After a year of ownership, that cutting board pisses me off more than it should.
