Or honk. Does your Vespa have a honk? In Vietnam, we honk our bikes to alert others especially around a curve. Foreign visitors complain about all the honking, and they are indeed annoying sometimes, but there is a reason why people do it.

My Unu/Black Tea (no Vespa) do have honks, but they’re quite whimpy, and the Viennese will scream extra bloody murder at you for honks as well, especially if they’re the ones standing foolishly in the middle of the road with their mobile phone plastered to their faces, and you’ve just added a new black line in the road, braking not to hit them ..

I keep thinking I should upgrade my honk to make it beefier (although honk usage can get you a traffic ticket in Vienna), but I want to experiment with the helmet whistle a bit more, just to see if its effective ..

You should join our unu Community Discord, we have someone who upgraded to what is basically two fog horns at ungodly decibel levels ... but we can also reactivate the builtin speaker and add the spaceship noise maybe?

Great ideas on all accounts, thanks for the tip about the Discord, I’ll look that up soon .. need to get my Unu classic back on the road, has been idle for 2 years after quite some action since it was released .. lovely moped, all things considered, for the city…

I also live in Vietnam and that's utter bs, sorry. People in Vietnam are generally chill and lovely, until they get onto the road where they become selfish, entitled, noisy assholes. They honk to avoid having to look, wait, or slow down. Trying to be a pedestrian in Vietnam is extremely stressful, nobody will ever give you right of way even on a sidewalk, instead they'll just drive directly at you while honking until you get out of the way.

Does Anthropic publish postmortems for incidents like these?

Since we renamed DOD to DOW, should the Defense budget be renamed too?

I thought he was a PM.

There is a video floating where he demoed Excel, and his title was Technical Marketing Manager. Maybe he pivoted to PM later?

Base education, he’s an EE.

There's another camp that don't care about the craft AND also don't care about the product. This camp, wielding power of AI, is making life worse for the other two camps. I've been getting so many code reviews that are generated by AI, but the author does not even has the decency to self review the generated code before they send out pull requests. It feels like an insult sometimes. For example, unit tests that basically assert if `a = 1` after setting a to 1.

Every PR now has lots of unit tests, but they test the implementation details, not the spec. So now every change that breaks their implementation details causes false positive test failures. This creates a self enforcing negative loop. Every PR now comes with tons of unit test fixes.

People start responding to PR comments with something along the line of: I ask AI but it was not able to solve the problem, if you have a solution, LMK. Or another variant I see often is: I think this is wrong, but AI says this is fine, so I'll leave it as is.

I see craft lovers or product people using AI effectively. I use AI daily too. But the above camp is making my day to day job sometimes unbearable.

> absorb lessons

That maybe correct for some lessons. Many lessons you have to learn the hard way to really absorb them.

they probably mean GUI app like GVim and MacVim

I personally wish they'd resurrect elvis

I loved using it to write and browse my html files. It can do troff too <3

if someone really want to have single keystroke, there's always F<number> key that they can map to their frequently used movements, such as last edit, next function, special marker (such as `m`), etc.

I can see how that could work depends on the setup and the context. For example: People might use `. to jump to the last edit, or to a mark they set manually. Or simply `ciq` to edit inside the next quote without any manual cursor movements. I see people use plugin like harpoon to jump to their favorite location quickly. If you don't know about such setup, seeing people type <leader>1 to jump not just within a file, but across files, seems magical.

Dont forget `*` and `#`. Idk if other editors have this now, but before learning vim, I used to ctrl+shift+arrow_keys to select a word, ctrl+c, ctrl+f, ctrl+v, Enter in order to move around in code. Discovering `*` and `#` in vim was mindblowing

Capital letters for marks work across files without plugins.

This reminds me of the day of Dreamweaver and the like. Everybody loved how quickly they could drag and drop UI components on a canvas, and the tool generated HTML code for them. It was great at the beginning, but when something didn't work correctly, you spent hours looking at spaghetti HTML code generated by the tool.

At least, back then, Dreamweaver used deterministic logic to generate the code. Now, you have AI with the capability to hallucinate...
