I'm glad you noticed this, I thought this was a wildly insane thing to do. Its like the satanic inversion of 9P protocol


Wouldn't there be a selection bias, as trucks in parking garages are much less likely to be doing hauling /towing tasks?


It's pretty funny how much truck rage there is here.


It’s crazy to me. If you hate automobiles, trucks still make the most sense- if you’re just carrying people and a grocery or two you should probably be on a bike or ebike.


That is quite a European take there. Most places in the US do not have safe pedestrian infrastructure mandating "share the road" policies with bicycles which puts you into direct contact with motor vehicle traffic, and suburban spread means you're probably not close enough to walk to your grocer.


Bikes and cars can easily coexist on streets, and if the street is too big/busy I bet there's a parallel side road that is much better. If you are too lazy to walk to your nearest grocer, ride a bike.

It is true that some sacrifices and brief periods of discomfort must be made if you care for the environment, this is nothing new and generally accepted.


Another truck thread on HN, another 150 bad comments about how trucks are pointless.


The Tacoma is the modern equivalent of the 90s Toyota, and while it is certainly bigger, it is not that much bigger.

Also, there are a lot of boats, RVs and trailers which my 2019 Tacoma absolutely would not have towed successfully.


Yes, and they're awesome. Also much closer to 100k.


What's 100K? My Lightning was just under 51K out the door, and it is not a base model. You must be referring to something else? Maybe pickups in general? It's true that they do tend to be expensive.

Edit: OH, you mean the CT. Silly me.


I've never used flamegraphs but would like to know about them. Can you explain more? Or where should I start?


Flame graphs have an official web site, maintained by Brendan Gregg, who invented them: https://www.brendangregg.com/flamegraphs.html. It's a useful starting point.


I would also try hotspot, it is a interactive viewer for perf graphs.


I use them all the time on Perl code.

This is how I felt about Bitcoin.


Hey, I was thinking about this same idea lately. What exactly would you want hosted by somebody?

I was thinking about what if your "cloud" was more like a tilde.club, with self hosted web services plus a Linux login. What services would you want?

Email and cloud make sense. I think a VPN and Ad Blocker would too. Maybe Immich and music hosting? Calendar? I don't know what people use for self hosting


I don't actually need much, I think basically just encrypted cloud storage would be great. If there was something like proton mail, but ran as a co-op, I'd also use that (it has great calendar support too).

I'd really focus on it being usable for non-techies, I don't think I'd want a linux login for anything. IMO, the focus should be on the basic infrastructure of digital life for the everyday person.

tilde.club sounds interesting though! Hadn't heard of it before.


org-roam is a very small and stable codebase, worth reading on its own simply for education, but I also find that if you're interested in the internals, it's pretty accessible.
