GP was suggesting that you would self-host for your wife and kids, not that they would self-host themselves.

It absolutely doesn't.

I have a year old BMW and the software is a complete and utter f*cking trash. The whole UX is just garbage.

Basically BMW goes out of its way to force drivers onto ConnectedDrive. Half of the functionality is hidden - for no clear reason - behind online ID.

You'd assume that if my wife or I open the car with our respective keys, we'd have the matching profile loaded, the seat adjusted, etc. Mwahahaha. NO! Unless the key is linked to an online ID - no soup for you! Infuriatingly stupid.

The dealer essentially forced me to create an online ID and activate ConnectedDrive saying they can't deliver the car otherwise. Immediately after, the car enrolled itself in some sort of Premium trial and never bothered to mark what functions are included and which are premium. It took 2 phone calls to get the trial cancelled and - what do you know - the traffic info was a part of it! What a bunch of wankers.

Even then, you'd assume that if they are so set of online bullshit, it would be polished. Ha, dream on. If you unlock the car and it has no cell connectivity, you get a guest profile. Car starts speaking German, all settings are at defaults, including the seat position.

I mean ... it's not my first BMW, but the pace of its enshittification is beyond belief. Stay the heck away.

No point in imagining that whatsoever. Just like imagining Bezos paying taxes or Trump not lying.

Kids jumping in front of cars is realistic in itself. Throw in a school bus and the car should've stopped, no ifs.

And Tesla didn't even do an emergency break.

Even 200 km/h is exceedingly rare.

I've been in agreement with you up until this point -

> it's astonishing how rapidly Apple improved after Ive's departure

Is there another Apple? What improvements are you talking about, leave alone astonishing ones?

An example of "bilateral visual stimulation" would go a very long way towards making people want to try the app.

It was also linked to the elevated risk of blood clots in another study a couple of years ago. Even then it instantly looked like an instant "nope" ... and now this.

... but they just won't be interested unless someone else's paying.

This is wildly off. Russia alone should be as bright as the US.

Very Teenage Engineering-like aesthetics, super cool!

Ahhhh... The Pirates!

I had a brilliant idea to sign up for the local library (that was 20 minutes away by foot no less) and to get an A2-sized 3 cm thick atlas just to play this stupid game! I distinctly remember walking back, it was in the evening, already dark, clear skies, freshly snowed, -25C, the snow was making that squeaky sound and I was vividly imaging all the gold I will now be hoarding with a shovel thanks to this nice little trick... lol. Good times, not a care in the world.

You may want to rethink your pitch.

Virtually all kanbans, being ultimately todo lists, focus on "simplicity, speed and user experience". You have an open source going for yours, but there is already a ton of O/S kanbans as well.

> Kanban reimagined

In which way exactly?

Also, is there a demo account to try it out?

You are arguing for the sake of arguing.

That's how you get the "tetris" score - by completing 4 row at once.

Yeah, the idea is interesting, but the app being a subscription for no reason is a no-go. This is how you ruin a good idea and kill the goodwill basically.

Far is a Norton Commander clone, and the NC was ubiquitous in pre-Windows era. It felt like it was on every single machine that ran DOS. Its dual-panel design is really quite ingenious as it speeds up the majority of routine file operations, especially when working with ad-hoc file sets. Just need to learn the keyboard shortcuts :)

There is another Far, with a bit more history behind it - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Far_Manager

You think the majority of the HN is now in favor of hanging the rich from the street poles?

> every rich person hanged from the nearest lamp post

As the joke from the 00s went - in other news, Cisco has become today the first company to close its doors because all its employees cashed out their stock options and quit.

That is, hanging rich persons from the lamp posts is probably not the maxim that would resonate well on the HN :)

Is the second meaning archaic?

Any plans to add Japanese steels?

solvable

Letters were 8 mm.

> To demonstrate the system’s capabilities, the team created a series of 8-mm-wide targets, each made from a reflective material and imprinted with a letter.

A fun fact is that two Soviet Mars probes missed their trajectories because of the same software bug in the onboard navigation firmware. There's also a legend that the bug was a mistyped comma in the Fortran code.

A thing to learn from JJ's performance is that not everyone is cut out to direct Star Wars movies.

Weren't tours restricted some time ago?

You can go down, you can look at the place from one spot, bit you no longer can walk around.
