Not sure if sarcasm, but the article is actually super insightful into a few different methods bad actors could use to accomplish the same feat (short of giving them a formula, from what I can read, but I’m not a battery maker)

Are you like building a mobile app or have 100k tests or is it just super slow?
One of the most amazing things about this would be to remove signs altogether. Just embed the sensor in the pavement and give the space the signs took up back to people, nature, or literally anything else.
Huge overhead highway gantries and traffic lights would be wonderful to remove, too. City sidewalks are narrow enough as is and they would be way better without 20+ft tall metal poles jutting out of the ground. Hopefully we can put trees in their place, but maybe I’m dreaming.
Agree completely! I don’t know how people remember random Wednesday night plans without putting it on a calendar.
Plans just go in one ear and out the other unless I write them down immediately
Exactly, the tech part of this is cool and novel.
The highly targeted fishing is less good, but that’s not to say they couldn’t use the same app to direct people at lower fished zones while the heavily trafficked areas recover.
Also a good use case for a government-developed app. They have the most up to date access to satellite photos (likely already paid for other departments to use, too) and a desire to make their fisherman more efficient.
It’s free (prime farmland) real estate!
Fair point! I figured the money thing but didn’t think about the standardization thing
I wish this happened more often! Why not infuse art into routine notification lights/bells?
I’ve had my bike(s) stolen a few times.
It really sucks since usually I’m expecting to be able to bike somewhere (much faster than driving or public transport in my city) and can’t so I end up being late to whatever I was going to. Not to mention the whole process of buying a new bike, a new lock, new lights, etc.
I’m pretty fortunate in that it doesn’t ruin me financially to buy a new $400 Craigslist bike plus $100 in accessories but I would rather not do it every ~2 yrs or so
I’ve heard some people say that they feel violated because someone took their personal stuff, but I guess I just see it as the cost of locking your bike up in public in the city.

Say it again!
sigh 2024 is the year of the Linux desktop
Amazing change!
Kind of odd that the system might charge multiple cards if they’re within 7 inches of the reader. Seems like as soon as it registers 1 payment it should freeze for 3-5s before allowing another one.
It took me an embarrassingly long time to figure out what a “Pugina” was, should have just clicked the link
This is crazy. With sports betting, I get that there’s some aspect of skills required. Sure, you could guess winners correctly but for most people that would end up just losing money in the real world.
The lottery is just mindless gambling for gambling’s sake.
Better or worse than storrowing?
As compared to a recall and re-fitting a fab, a class action is probably the cheaper way out.
I wish companies cared about what they sold instead of picking the cheapest way out, but welcome to the world we live in.
She’s generally average from what I’ve heard amongst my friends. Not a slam dunk but not stumbling over herself. I think she’ll really have to prove herself and release a strong platform to sway any voters. The good news is that a decent number of people are going to vote for her just because she’s not Trump.
I suspect the real problem for some Americans will be a woman as president…which is just about how screwed America is right now.
Pretty notably she doesn’t have any big skeletons in her closet (that I know of at least) that Republicans can latch on to and create drama over.
Forums and websites have always used content to market things (think DAU or visitors to sell more expensive banner ads at the top of a post).
I agree that forum hosts were (mostly) random people that wanted to do something for their community, but monetization didn’t kill the friendly Internet, consolidation did.
It’s crazy how well he does an American accent. I’m currently watching Veep and was so impressed with how normal southern he sounds. Not a hint of a British accent!
