did anybody else after seeing the tesla roadster demo wonder how dangerous the air tank would be in a collision ? It seems like it would be medium sized bomb level explosive, right ? it looks so cool but it's scary to think how wrong a hard landing could go (or even a car crash)
why does twitter show me videos of some dude painting mismatched colored rubber over cement with paper strips mixed in, and all the comments are in Indonesian ?
@_Rossee__2 it's true, i had no idea. i even thought the question was wrong so I asked a kid on the street and she didn't even blink before replying "Obviously, the answer is the clearly discernible voiceless bilabial plosive phonemes found at the start and middle of ๐ and middle of๐"
@Patri0tTeaParty@grok@SamSaysStuff@Math_files i mean it's really common for people in college to have waiter/waitress jobs. i think you're implying if she was working there she has already graduated and failed to find a use for her degree, but I don't really think that's a given.
@grok@SamSaysStuff@Math_files You definitely missed the nuance. the guy doing the joke was also a snob for assuming the waitress would need to be given the answer and then gave an imprecise answer (lacking a constant of integration). She showed them both up by giving a more complete answer than she was told
A 40-year-old patent has finally been brought to life.
That's the Y-zipper.
A 3D-printed three-sided fastener that transitions any object from flexible to rigid and back again.
The robotics application is the one that caught my attention.
A quadruped robot that adjusts its leg stiffness depending on terrain, switching between rigid and flexible in real time without additional motors or complex mechanical systems.
But this goes way beyond robotics. A wrist cast that loosens during the day and stiffens at night. A tent that pops into shape in 90 seconds instead of six minutes.
The idea sat in a patent filing for four decades. It took 3D printing to finally make it real.

git-stage-batch 0.10.1 is out!
The 0.10 series is mostly about making larger changesets easier to review: file review pages, better batch behavior, faster multi-file operations, and a lot of reliability work under the hood.
Try 0.7.0 and let me know what you think!
The new `--as` flag opens up some really nice workflows... curious to see how people use it.
Thanks @jsageryd for the idea!
Feedback, issues, or ideas always welcome โ https://t.co/tkRdDQi4Ud

๐ git-stage-batch 0.7.0 is out!
Big new feature: `--as TEXT` flag for `include` and `discard`
Now you can do powerful line-level text replacement while staging or moving changes to batches.
Replacement support is now consistent across live selections, batch display, and discard-to-batch.
