My biggest wish for Signify/Philips Hue is to hire a hardware designer. Really dig what they’re productionizing in the light ecosystem, but holy hell do the devices look like shit.

And with the Secure camera someone probably just took the piss. I’m kinda in awe that they didn’t hide the cable on the packaging. Fully committed to the cable management atrocity.

But at least it’s a modular design! You can also get it with a floodlight. Where it needs a steel cable to secure the camera to the floodlight so nobody steals it. On top of the already stellar power cable routing.

I think I finally found the best way to interact with agents. Stole some parts from @badlogicgames pibot, mashed it together with @kyutai_labs stt and can finally be the man I've always wanted to be! Fully local on an m4 macbook btw!

Guess window companies would make bank if they lobby for building energy standards in New York? 🙃

Polymarket absolutely represents crypto values with this action?!
Replying to @willo2_Poly
I supported Polymarket for years because I believed they represented crypto values. In fact, their platform is simply another bucketshop where if you bet too much, you're going to get cleaned. It's disgraceful that your employees would scam for such low amounts @shayne_coplan

Österreich in einer Nussschale: > Aus individueller Sicht frustrierend. Aus regulatorischer Sicht nachvollziehbar, aber sehr stumpf. (Konkret: MRG und kurzfristige Wohnraumüberlassung im sozialen Nahebereich)

S3 feels like magic. Bottomless storage, instant retrieval and infinitely scalable. Turns out that it’s just a massive fleet of servers with real capacity limits and those servers 5xx when overloaded. We run millions of ec2 instances a day and regularly see S3 errors in our logs.

Das schöne ist ja dass der verdunstete Strom in der Batterie wieder kondensiert wenn’s über Nacht wärmer geworden ist. Aber darüber redet natürlich wieder niemand!
Strom „verdunstet“ wohl. Ich lerne immer gerne hinzu. Wie soll ich darauf reagieren?

Finally some substantial MEB dirt!
APP310 Rear Drive Unit — The VW MEB Bearing Disaster We have analyzed the APP310 in the ID.3, ID.4, and Enyaq several times. Forum users complained when we drew our conclusion after the first teardown - and once again, every subsequent unit confirms the same pattern. We are not deviating. The latest case: motor completely seized at 214,000 km. The owner had clearly been driving with audible buzzing for a long time and ignored the sound. Our conclusion was a design problem, not a quality problem. All bearing part numbers are unavailable in the supply chain. Of these, 4 bearings do not exist as serviceable parts at all. The motor had only 200 ml of oil left, burnt off by 180,000 km, and we are now seeing the exact same pattern repeating: the motor runs with insufficient oil, which is the primary cause of failure, and you can see black “carbon” residue coating the internals. The motor has no oil drain plug and was never designed for an oil change. So in summary: oil cannot be changed — it burns off — problem bearings are not available in the supply chain — problem the motor is repairable if you are not too late — problem we developed our own repair kit — excellent the motor is well-built but it leaks — problem there is no official service interval — problem Our recommendation: do not ignore buzzing or humming noises, and change the oil in both differentials every 100,000 km.
