yes, we do, e.g. flixbus. and some others I think. Haven't been traveling for a while by bus around Austria. Apples/Oranges probably, but I do know vienna<->bratislava has like 3-4 different companies operating the same route with similar busses at similar times with different prices.
And talking about apples/oranges, let me add apples/bananas: Vienna to Budapest by train cost a lot when booking via öbb. And not a lot when booking via Regiojet.
The problem is the offers are all scattered around imho.
Yep, single tickets on Austrian ÖBB is not cheap at all without subscriptions or discounts.
Prices are good only if you use it regularly as a commuter via a yearly subscription (Klimaticket), but for one off trips, prices are more expensive than flying.
That is the point! Austria is on the verge of overtourism, it's a conscious political decision in this case to tax transport of tourists highly and allow the population cheap subscription plans.
Like courses on udemy. Most people buy a ton of courses probably for the feeling of having bought a course. Which translates apparently to already halfway there becoming that expert the courses promises you to become. Or they build a catalog and sell the account (on udemy).
It's actually relaxing to just drive around with different cars into the sunset, turn the radio on and occasionally overrun some pedestrians.
I knew I can't be the only one finding it relaxing, yet the anxiety before starting the game if I can play it or not because of yet another update is really a downturn.
That is AWESOME! I am wondering, are you creating all the content yourself?
I am doing plenty of courses across different platforms, from udemy to teachable selfhosting etc. They all lack the interactivity. I am currently hosting the code samples myself and basically redirect students there, where they can interact.
But scrimba is another league!
If you open this up similar to how udemy just hosts videos and does revenue share, count me in. With the webcontainers, the sky is the limit and beyond.
We currently create the courses ourselves, but would love to see if there’s an opportunity for a collab here. Please send me an email at per@scrimba.com :)
Quite dystopian thinking how a full factory and beyond could be run completely in the dark, just robots running around doing their thing. Faster, stronger, more accurate, never tired, never sleeping. Add in a small nuclear battery like the one from Betavolt coming up and mass produce it. And you have an autonomous "thinking" thing in the physical world capable of almost anything that humans are capable. Endless possibilities...
Never has the future been brighter and darker at the same time.. lets see.
100%, I have family in manufacturing and this isn't anything new. Most current manufacturing plants already run on effectively a skeleton staff vs 50 years ago.
yes, they do, that is true, however that's with [some]-axis stationary robots. Not humanoid robots literally running around. The best we can do right now afaik is that robot-dog-like thing which can overcome obstacles and be equipped with sensors. Nothing human like.
If I imagine I run into a factory full of "thinking" (current LLM level top of line benchmark) humanoid looking robots who are collaborating on tasks dynamically as needed... In my book that is as dystopian as it gets and has nothing to do with the current level of automation that's happening, that's a whole new level.
Nuclear battery? Why not have the robots recharge themselves? They could coordinate their shift changes in a staggered fashion (unlike human shift changes) so that the line never stops moving.
> Quite dystopian thinking how a full factory and beyond could be run completely in the dark, just robots running around doing their thing.
There is nothing dystopian about this image. Human being weren’t designed, evolved, nor destined to be a worker in a factory. Their absence in factories isn’t in and of itself a problem.
The dystopian part is how the wealthy and powerful will chose to use the fact that so much can be automated. I doubt they’ll be willing to use it to create Fully Automated Luxury Communism.
In practice, it will be used to liquidate us: at best, we get the mass-fabbed social housing and a minimal dole to keep us from revolting; at worst, they leave us to die on the streets like we currently do to the mentally ill and the medically bankrupt.
Why is it dystopian? This is how you keep cost of stuff low. Many people don’t realize that prices of cars have remained stable over last 20-30 years (beating inflation), because we outsourced and made a global economy work for us. Similarly the ‘cheap robot factory’ will output more and should cost less. Maybe we get a 20k car in next few years…
> Many people don’t realize that prices of cars have remained stable over last 20-30 years (beating inflation)
Many people don't realize that the average real wages remained stable over the last 30 years either lol. You can buy more subscriptions and other useless gadgets but the basics are the same (cars) or higher (rent/building). You're in a blind spot because you're in the top 30%, go ask the bottom 70%...
Even if everything was "stable adjusted to inflation" it would hardly be a win, and definitely not something to cheer for or call "progress", that's 30 years of stagnation with a few bells and whistles
>Even if everything was "stable adjusted to inflation" it would hardly be a win, and definitely not something to cheer for or call "progress", that's 30 years of stagnation with a few bells and whistles
not if you have wage growth that exceeds inflation.
If I imagine I run into a factory full of "thinking" (current LLM level top of line benchmark) humanoid looking robots who are collaborating on tasks dynamically as needed in the dark (because they don't need light, ... or oxygen ... or basically anything but electricity)...
In my book that is as dystopian as it gets and has nothing to do with the current level of automation with robots that's happening, that's a whole new level. Production efficiency is one thing, but not far and the DOD or someone else on the other end of the world has some creative ideas how to use that to "make the world great again"...
Same. The "runs on mobile" part I assume is Android only? How do I develop something for iOS that uses Bear? Seems like a limitation they wouldn't be able to lift but maybe I'm missing something
Update: from home page
> Built for Mobile
> Embedding a JavaScript runtime on mobile is easy with Bare Kit. Bare Kit allows you to create "worklets" or isolated Bare threads which expose an IPC with bindings for Android and iOS. With React Native, you install `react-native-bare-kit` and create a `Worklet` instance passing the JavaScript you want to run.
Bare supports both iOS and Android, yes. Bare Kit provides some convenient abstractions for integrating Bare with native application frameworks like Swift UI and the Android service architecture, but plain Bare runs just fine on iOS and Android out of the box. There's even prebuilt binaries for both platforms.
Bare runs on iOS, yes. The tricky part with iOS in particular is loading of native addons. Bare solves this through https://github.com/holepunchto/bare-link which is capable of generating XCFrameworks on-demand that can then be linked with and signed as part of the application bundle.
Is there actually an "domain reputation as a service" provider, which controls a couple thousand gmail addresses, sends itself the emails and manually unmarks them as spam? Asking for a friend..........
