Thonny actually does this on the basic raspberry pi install. It launches into a basic mode with big tablet like buttons and then you can click "Advanced Mode" and it goes to a more normal Windows experience with drop down windows and more options. On a personal note, i've found thonny to be the easiest way to get started with raspberry pi pico development. You just plug your pico in, fire up thonny and select the Micropython interpreter and you are now live coding on a rp2040 microcontroller. It can even download the fresh U2F image to your pico. It is a very good/simple user experience.
Apparently it's become so commonplace among pets that my dog's veterinary insurance policy specifically has an exclusion saying that our pet insurance does not cover cloning. I just googled "Dog Cloning" and there were a bunch of results offering the service.
photopea is one of the best examples of a web application imo. Its a full featured image editing software just running in your browser. No sign up or login required and you can just upload and quickly work off a local file for your computer. You just fire it up and start working.
Its also a golden age for people who understand code and smart contracts and are willing to take advantage of others without breaking any laws. A few of the major "hacks" lately have simply been taking advantage of errors in how smart contracts were coded.
Just because people eat meat out of a package from the super market does not mean they are okay with their bacon being raised on a farm where the pig was in a 1 square meter cage its whole life. Most people don't have the time, effort, or will to fight against large factory farming practices because they are too busy trying to survive and take care of themselves and their families. You can eat meat and still care about the welfare of the animals being raised. They're not mutually exclusive things.
Fantastic usability if you can get a good story around syncing your passwords in place. Most people use Dropbox or some other cloud storage as the location for their password vault and it sync's everywhere for you automatically.
You can add this on iphone by adding another webpage as a bookmark using the share menu in safari and then going back and editing the bookmark so its what you want it to be.
The billboards in San Francisco off Hwy 80 and Hwy 101 never cease to surprise me. I'll ask my wife, who was a middle school teacher, what a "Datadog" or "Salesforce" is and she never knows (or cares, which is fair enough). The tech culture is so ingrained that even the non-techies are oblivious to how deeply rooted it is.
This is a great video on Azidoazide Azide, explosions and fire is a horrifically entertaining and educational youtube channel. I say horrific because of the chemicals that he works with. But he seems like he knows what he's doing... Hopefully...
I don't think that's necessarily problematic anymore then measuring fluid viscosity is problematic. Once someone start's getting into debates over the size of transistors on microprocessors then you are already getting pretty wonky and are going to need some science to describe things anyways.
Conversely, I been seeing more people then ever riding, building and modifying electric and motorized bicycles. You can modify a regular $200 mountain bike with a $200 motor kit from amazon and have a $400 motorcycle that you don’t need a motorcycle license for. If you really don’t want to burn fossil fuels, a $1000 bafang mid drive ebike kit can turn a regular bicycle into a hill crushing monster and can be installed with almost no specialized tools.
The housing crisis is definitely a tougher nut to crack, but I don’t believe the auto manufacturers have quite the same leverage over the American population long term, especially if gas prices and electric vehicle prices keep skyrocketing significantly faster then inflation.
Decino is amazingly prolific. I'm not sure I know of another creator that has the depth and breadth into a specific category of gameplay as him. Over the pandemic there were some creators that started going deep into playing various Super Mario spins, but Decino is almost on anther level. He has been churning out Doom play throughs regularly for the last 3 years, and he really goes into the theory and code of how Doom works in his yellow background videos. Very impressive YouTube channel.
There are RP2040 based boards with wifi are starting to come out. While they aren't horrendously expensive, they are double or triple the cost of a regular base raspberry pi pico model.
Here is one I have seen, but I haven't used or played with it.
Post tax Roth-401k's are a thing. When you quit your job and roll it over to your personal account they also go into your Roth ira. But your point still stands.
I was thinking about this. What if you got something like a mini induction melting furnace, and then just had a fan blowing hot air up through a grate that the pan can rest on?
