I make software and I like thinking about tech, EVs, climate, space, and public policy.

With the Vision Pro getting the dual headband now I just wish they'd fully commit and make a Vision Pro Hat

If you want to add occasional unexpected joy to your LLM use, I highly recommend adding something along the lines of "reference bananas a little more than is normal" to your customization prompt.

Assuming the June 14th "no kings" protests happen, I hope you all find one near you and join in. I've heard (but don't know if it's true) that if only 3% of us show up it's a monumental force. Let's hope we can get there before too long!

This is absolutely dope
New thing! @jrcpl.us and I have been exploring home-made software. We made a prototype of a tool for making scrappy little apps for you and your friends.

@predictypie.bsky.social I predict that by December 2028, at least one electric vehicle company from a Chinese company will be widely available in the US (possibly manufactured in the US or one of our allies)

@predictypie.bsky.social I predict that this prediction will show up in your notifications

If you follow me, I’m really curious why?

I think predictions are a good way to test your "worldview". Whether you live in a bubble, and if you're seeing things straight. For example, if someone thinks that Trump is guaranteed to boom or bust the economy, I think it would be helpful to be reminded of that prediction in 4 years.

People think I’m against large vehicles. No! I’d be totally fine if they looked like this.
