Tabs for Feb 24th 2023
- Ex-Tesla CEO was unable to get a job for 2 years. Tesla is a company that’s easy to hate right now thanks to the omni-presence of it’s current CEO. But this article is clickbaity. He couldn’t work in a specific industry and “being broke” isn’t contextualised with the millions he had.
- Cacio e Pepe recipe. I seem to be the only one around me that absolutely adores this dish. But no one — no one — makes it quite as well as Grano in Dublin’s Stoneybatter.
- Frost. Everyday objects, but cold.
- TechURLs. Pretty handy link aggregation site for common tech URLs. It’s derived from a dev iteration, but that’s too far in the weeds for me.
- Apple-I operations manual. Cool deep dive into the old school!
- Securit.ie feeds. Spotted this really great aggregation of notable security-related RSS feeds.
- Tesla testing magic dock for non-Tesla cars. The rollout of the SC network to other cars begins in the US.
- Clarksworld is being inundated with shitty AI-generated articles, forcing submission shutdown
- DPA-investigation forces Tesla to make camera privacy seriously
- BBC Micro emulator
- Zenith laptop restoration. I love the idea of restoring and recovering old hardware for modern times. Preservation of tech (and software) is going to be important.
- Meta is a company running out of ideas. Imagine founding a social media company and your business is solely reliant on ads. Or worse, charging users for basic features like security. Any VC would laugh you out of the room.
- The Internet explained from first-principles.
- Russian trolls outed by Finnish grammar
- Woodies DIY objects to metro stop proposal Boycot these fuckers
- Linux on M1+ ARM chips. Linking to the HN thread because articles are claiming this to be a done deal, when it’s just not true.
- Sonos Era speakers. These effectively replace the One line. With a key differentiator being the upward speakers, which could be a game-changer for surround systems. Like mine. My wallet, as they say, is ready!
- Keanu seems smart. I also mentioned his clauses to avoid computer generation replicating performances last week.
- Dead Dinosaurs - my climate-focused blog/site. I need to stop buying domains.
