I'm afraid to ask, but Sonic's... Ultimate Harem??

I automatically read it as zero milligrammes.

For some reason this reminded me of a "in between two ferns" interview, I don't remember with who, where Galiakcnshjjkzzzz goes "I hear you're very reserved and hate personal questions. So when did you first get your period?" and I thought that was so stupid that it was hilarious.

Insert "Hello, HR?" meme

That's just par for the course, like with emails, slack messages etc, always assume they have access to everything.

I don't get these companies that are trying to force AI down people's throats.

I really like how mine is handling this. They gave us Gemini like 6 months ago, along with about a paragraph at most saying that we must stop using AI services from unvetted providers (GPT, etc) with company or customer data, because we needed to have legal agreements in place for that.

Nobody ever mentioned it again, at all. They probably provided us with that AI because we had people using all sorts of services and it was becoming a nightmare, so they signed some contract to cover data protection requirements and said "here, use this one if you must".

Now it's just there. There's zero pressure to use it. Some Google guys wanted to come over to make some presentations, some people signed up for those but they were entirely optional.

You use it if you have a use case for it, or don't, doesn't matter. The only metrics are the one we've always had - deliver good work, on time. How you do that is up to you.

You guys still have hair?

I don't get why are you guys

Presumably dad was relieved.

Having your kid tell you he's a boy shouldn't be a surprise if you talk to them and are paying attention. Them being pregnant unexpectedly, that can be a shock.

Also with how expensive a plot of land is these days, no way we're splurging for individual accommodations.

 

Just saw the post about Helsinki opening several bridges for a similar purpose, so thought I'd share this here as well.

Porto Metro system didn't exist until around 20 years ago. Just last year, it carried more than 90 million people, and it's not stopping.

While traffic in Porto has actually gotten worse, as tourism and building rehabilitation have exploded, the investment in the metro continues.

This bridge is part of the new "Ruby line", and will provide another much needed way of crossing the Douro river, and will be exclusively used by pedestrians and cyclists, along with the metro.

This line is great because it will connect the other existing lines to a university campus and a large shopping center, while serving a fairly high density area where the residents mostly work in Porto, and have to commute daily.

 

Hi everyone!

I'm trying to control a "dumb" led light strip segment with an ESP-01S. This is fairly low current, the strip will pull 150mA-200mA max (depends on... artistic? needs).

I have two NPN transistors (2N2222), one to control the 12V supply to the white "channel" and the other the red+blue (don't need the green).

I had to pull-down the gates as I had some flickering, and it works perfectly if I manually connect the GPIOs after the ESP-01S boots.

The ESP will boot if I have the RX pin (GPIO03) pulled down on boot, but not if I pull down any of the others.

I'm not smart enough to come up with a way to have that extra pin I need to be high only during boot, while the gate it's attached to needs to be pulled down...

Any thought, other than getting something with more IO pins?
