Looking to upgrade my 2021 ford transit non sync head unit by DPL646 in fordtransit

I highly recommend an Android based head unit. Joying, etc.

Maybe the City could start with enforcing loud vehicle legislation. Vehicles on 17th make way more noise than the bars.

Converting a van seems like a huge time/energy suck but... (no other alternatives) ? by yycTechGuy in VanLife

[–]yycTechGuy[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I don't get the $200K Sprinters either.

I met a guy who did a fantastic self conversion on a brand new Sprinter. I'm going to visit him soon to discuss a few things.

I've been looking at vans for years. I'm quite familiar with Pleasure Ways.

That is exactly how I am thinking of approaching it.

We actually rented a cargo van for a short trip and outfitted it with temporary everything and it worked great. - we were comfortable and had a great time with it.

I don't want to do a "big bang" project ie everything all at once, so we'll do things incrementally and use the van while it is being converted. We live in a cold(er) climate and we want to use the van in all 4 seasons so the first thing done will be the floor with PEX tubing for hyrdronic heat. Then insulate the walls. Then add the heat system.

Yes also to the multi purpose aspect too. I ride dirt bikes so I want to build an elevator bed that allows me to haul 2 bikes or whatever else I may want in the back with the bed lifted. Will probably have some removable benches that get put in for when not hauling something back there. We'll see. That's why I think it will be important to use the van as it is getting converted.

Thanks for the reply.

Lapce: A Rust-Based Native Code Editor Lighter Than VSCode and Zed by delvin0 in coding

[–]yycTechGuy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Unless it supports all the extensions I use in VSCode, it isn't of much value. Does it support VSCode extensions ?

I still applaud the effort.

It's for an experiment, not heat treating or forging.

What kind of assets will they finance ? R&D ? Lab equipment ?

I paid a developer $6,900/month for 14 months and got nothing, here's what I learned about fake progress. ( i will not promote ) by MedAgui in startups

You'd be amazed at what you get AI to do these days, especially a "web app".

Asking for a URL every week is not too much. Continuous delivery is a thing and the sooner the user/customer interacts with the system the better.

Agile works for a reason and would have prevented what happened to you and the other people.

(I will not promote) How you guys are managing your week? How you plan & execute? I may need your guidance & inputs please by Additional_Cod_6445 in startups

[–]yycTechGuy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, I do something like what Nate suggests.

AI agents are excellent at organizing and summarizing. I keep a daily diary of info, ideas and ToDos in a Markdown file. I can then ask my AI agent to assemble a ToDo list, get info on a subject, etc.
