Babies go nuts for crinkles for a few months of development. I wonder if it’s related.

I was very excited about open firmware and ran FreshTomato for a while. Eventually I decided it wasn’t reliable though (2.4Ghz wasn’t actually running on one router, occasional speed issues).

I switched to Unify and have had a great experience. Great visibility into link speed, which device is on which AP, able to SSH into each device and run iperf3, WiFiMan is a great debugging tool (which you don’t need their ecosystem to try), notifies me when the ISP is slow/down. There’s a bewildering array of hardware and it’s not cheap or always in stock, but there are some good guides around.

So, I’d like FOSS to be the right answer, but in this case I’m glad I switched to Unifi.

ETA: https://evanmccann.net/ubiquiti is the most useful guide. And a key aspect is Ubiquiti is the cloud services are an optional aspect, it won’t brick if they go under.

The article doesn’t cover potential impact, just an analogy to a household. Do we expect runaway inflation soon? The national debt had been going up as long as I remember. Was it propped up by international goodwill/trust/fear which we have now burned?

Not the best drivers, but clearly drivers! Cool.

Boycott air travel? Double benefit for climate and ICE. I would love to see 1/month as a no-air day. Better if airlines would do it as a strike, no more service until ICE is defined. While I’m dreaming.

Hah, luckily no cat present. I considered inlaying magnets at the top of making some kind of latch, I do dread what would happen if the griddle’s handles came down on the cooktop.

Thanks! I was surprised I couldn’t find a commercial product like this, I mostly saw ones like this one from Reddit:

But I don’t have that much free wall space, and didn’t want a rail/hooks.

Yeah! I considered breaking out the flex shaft for this one but ended up having enough mobility without.

Affected folks probably know, but: near Honolulu, Hawaii.

Leaders said there was a “robust process” to ensure the contracts align with Google’s AI principles.

Ah, I think you’ve identified their “robust process” and what the key “principles” are.

Yeah, got headhunted for 10 replace-doctors-with-AI startup for every 1 ed-tech company that even looked at my resume, and the company I’m at now, though good on paper, is squeezing AI into every nook and cranny as fast as they can while sidelining security concerns.

It seems like the AI never gets tired of writing code

I think that’s a telling observation. The whole reason we have software, and programming languages, is that people get tired.

Necessity has invented generally and reuse to combat repetition. With agents that don’t tire, they don’t gravitate to generally — but their endless repetition does tire their human reverse-centaur bodies dealing with the code review and maintainability they can’t reason about.

So would I, but I’d like to pay to make it simpler and route more of it to education / universal healthcare.

The hair clips are a nice detail.
