@ADoricko Canadian here.. experienced with removing snow. The surface melts into water and flashes off while shielding the snow beneath.

Also, flamethrowers mostly heat air. Bad contact. You'll need a heated driveway to get rid of that

“There’s a Mexican standoff happening between product manager, designer, and coder.”

Marc Andreessen on how AI is reshaping core tech roles:

“Every coder now believes they can also be a product manager and a designer, because they have AI. Every product manager thinks they can be a coder and a designer. And every designer knows they can be a product manager and a coder.”

“People in each of those roles now know or believe that with AI, they don’t need the other two roles anymore.”
