Re:Luce: First Electric Ferrari. Designed by LoveFrom on Monday February 09, 2026 @05:05PM (#46952177)
As Ferrari has been proving over the last few generations, they know how to make engines but Pininfarina knows how to design cars. I'm not even slightly surprised by the Luce.

Really the only thing keeping me from going all in on keychain is the lack of a UI for the times when it doesn’t autocomplete or I need a password in terminal or something.

I’d pay for something that provided a global hotkey and an interface that isn’t nested in Settings.

At least in Los Angeles, Teslas are more of an upgraded Prius. Most people with money have been replacing them with Taycans or E-trons over the last 2-3 years.

With generics around the corner I am really hoping we see some flavor of Option & Result coming to Go. But I won't hold my breath for ?.

I use Tiller for this. By initial comparison this looks more expensive with less features and a limit on total accounts, am I missing something? Tiller is a bit weak on tracking stocks in investment accounts.
Call me pessimistic, but my thoughts on the matter is that TSLA and by association Musk have become too big to fail. Anything that would take Musk down would harm a lot of very wealthy investors.
Is it superior? I have seen people on YouTube wrapping the connectors in wet rags in order to cool it down enough to charge at maximum watts.

I've never used one, our Audi is CCS but we have never had to resort to any antics even in 110f weather.

I don't think thats whats going on here. This is more like highlighting that DDG is a rebranded/privacy focused Bing.

They'd have to sell these at a significant loss to make up for the risk any company would have to take to build out a DC on first generation hardware from a startup.

as a heavy user of CDK, sst looks pretty cool.

i'm curious why you didn't go the direction of adding this functionality to CDK directly? i'd like to use some of the functionality in here like live lambda development, but i also don't want to take on converting my org's already built CDK extensions and deal with migrations.

ive been waiting for this since they first announced the iphone upgrade program, sign me up.

Re:hCaptcha now runs on fifteen percent of the internet on Wednesday November 25, 2020 @03:31PM (#25213965)
So we use 15% of the internet for captchas and I lose 15% of my life identifying crossroads, stoplights, and buses to computers. There's got to be a better way

Yes.
They would do the same thing if your car was impounded because you were driving around and selling drugs.

It's going back, at least on the HCL front. Have a look at Pulumi and prepare to throw TF in the trash.
I looked into this when I first heard about the ReMarkable 2.0, general consensus was usable but not as good. Some work is required to convert books to be used on the device and make fonts look OK. I also remember something about the built in reader not being as well designed.

i don't remember flash ever being very good at its job. the best there was at the time, but slow/buggy/crashing. i remember being very excited for html5 being able to replace it.

May be too late for you, but you don't need an account and you can use terraform providers for anything that isn't currently supported.

I've got a PR opened to implement this but due to S3 CAP limitations, it hasn't been merged. The current state is that it could be merged for non-S3 backends and a DynamoDB type lock could be added for S3 backends. I don't have much interest to keep pushing it forward (its been nearly a year of "ill get back to you next week") although their new VP has been more responsive.

Alternately I was considering just implementing the server API to do state storage & locking, but we have implemented some workarounds that are good enough for now.

The Times covered this on the 8th. The policy didn't change

https://www.nytimes.com/2020/04/08/arts/music/ticketmaster-r...

setting a policy and policing that policy are very different things, this argument assumes that their users will deliberately break their advertising rules

I can't wait to see how they decide to version the different USB 4 generations.
