There are a variety of ways for me to get to the office, with varying levels of traffic each day. For the last 8 years, every morning I get in my car and say "Okay Google, take me to work" without fail until 5 months ago or so. Now I've been getting "Tell me about where you work" and "I am just an AI, I cannot take you anywhere." I've given up on using voice commands and have gone back to opening up Maps and manually doing it myself.

Curious who you are. You quoted my advisor!

I develop in open source and need to run a large test suite many times each day. On 4 physical cores it would take 20 minutes, on 16 it takes around 6.

Don't question it. Just accept it as being a useful flag, like a car with tons of bumper stickers.

If you use a weighted average.

Let me get a feed on repos I work on specific to labels. Working on a large codebase with many developers and users, I should be able to automatically get pinged on issues and PRs that have certain labels. Instead, it's basically all or nothing. That GitHub doesn't have this basic, trivial to implement feature, that users have repeatedly asked for and instead go with social media crap speaks volumes.

When I am told something is easy and I find it hard, I get discouraged. When I am told something is hard and I find it hard, I am encouraged. When I am told something is hard and I find it easy, I'm on top of the world.

Seems overblown to me. The Mars Climate Orbiter made a much bigger impact...

This makes sense in the long term, but I'd argue not right now. If we're going to discount the purchase of EVs, then this is the financial version of digging a hole just to fill it.

Very few details provided, probably no where close to production. Tell me about it when I can buy the damn thing.

Article: We've done something that never been done before, advanced science, and made what seems like it could be a step toward improving batteries. Slashdot: Can I buy it yet? No? Worthless.

I am very confused by this.

You can't be saying that 15 gallons of gasoline weighs 750 kilograms(-force). So what does this mean?

I don't think there is anything easy about increasing the mass of a car by 50%.

They would need a massive battery to store all that power to make this work. They clearly haven't thought it through.

The Vice President doesn't fly on Air Force One, he flies on Air Force Two. In fact, the President and Vice President don't spend much time together precisely for this reason.
