Okay, next time you manage to use your knowledge of octal for something else the beers are on meThe human brain uses an adaptive learning technique where in a new situations it fashions together a patchwork world model based on similar previous experiences. It is literally how we navigate every new life experience we have. It not only applies to our subconscious decisions but can benefit us for more conscious creativity and problem solving abilities. Sadly when faced with new challenges a whole lot of people instantly give up if they haven't been explicitly taught how to handle the situation instead of applying that patchwork of knowledge they may have never previously applied that could enable them to handle the new circumstance. The only useless knowledge is false knowledge.
It is also impossible to predict what someone will need to know in life so a diverse education is important. It is also difficult for someone to know what they want to do in life without exposure to a lot of things. Unless you just want to assign a future for a child as they enter school and groom them specifically for the future you have decided upon.
Not sure if I would call it octal but I have had to do weird math with weird 4 bit sensors. But shame on any teacher who teaches something without application.Okay, next time you manage to use your knowledge of octal for something else the beers are on me
Binary, Octal and Hex. Not touched octal since school in 85 or so.Not sure if I would call it octal but I have had to do weird math with weird 4 bit sensors. But shame on any teacher who teaches something without application.
Apparently just 1 in 10 lines of code is written by an AI these days, mostly in the Python field.So, how much AI currently exists in the Dev. World?
(serious Q)
As in, is it feasable in the future that a consumer could build a website with word prompts, like
“put a rectangular box in the upper left hand corner, 10mm x 30mm, with a text in Olde English font that says “Morrisey Must Die?, or some such?
which one exactly works like the one he describes? that would be something like dall-e et al. never heard of it…If you want a WYSIWYG web page editor, that kind of stuff has been out there for 20+ years, since the Dreamweaver days.
Just ask Siri to do it for you.So, how much AI currently exists in the Dev. World?

What was the sitcom that you watched?I haven’t watched a sit com since Seinfeld was actually on the TV
Sorry about your Bachelor of Arts degree.
You're couple of decades late, aren't you?Finally the day has come when Ridemonkey runs out of bike industry related mild inconveniences to moan about!
Mark it in your calendar guys. Next year we all get the day off!

For sure, Python is used for many other things than just AI/ML. I worked in a startup that built smart runtime instrumentation for interpreted languages including Python, and saw and played with quite a few Python projects.And in Ansible automation, infrastructure as code, SCADA, IoT...
It's COLD. And SLIPPERY. And TREACHEROUS.What's your issue with ICE?
In the UK we tend to just turn a blind eye to such thingsCOLD. And SLIPPERY. And TREACHEROUS.
Nothing, but when he thinks it is OK for him to ride a MX/dirt bike in the woods, then why is an electric dirt bike not? All the arguments he brings up are precisely those that people use against ebikes. Faster than normal bikes, quieter, more damage....What's your issue with ICE?
I'm disappointed in the lack of hate for the just released Scott Lumen. I know everyone's burned out on complaining about their headset cabling but I expected that an ebike that hides its E so well would bring out some comments.Finally the day has come when Ridemonkey runs out of bike industry related mild inconveniences to moan about!

The latest batch of Nukeproof MegaWatts have just gone to good ol easily removable easy peasy routed cable entry grommets in the downtube. Built one last week.headset cabling
Well then enlighten us.I'm disappointed in the lack of hate for the just released Scott Lumen. I know everyone's burned out
I think that style ebike makes more sense than the heavy 150-160 travel style. As a Scott shill who doesn't mind spending a couple days on the initial build and setup I have no problem with internal/integrated everything and I think that bike looks slick. As a non-ebike owner I'd guess this, a bike light enough to feel like a normal bike but with some help up the climbs or a 200mm DH bike that can self shuttle are the most functional genres.Well then enlighten us.
My Mega has an internal brake routing (not a fan, but the value on that bike was crazy). I'm actually pondering now how the 6mm Dominion lines will go with the port covers and grommets compared to the 5mm standard hoses. Fingers crossed can make it work without much fuss.The latest batch of Nukeproof MegaWatts have just gone to good ol easily removable easy peasy routed cable entry grommets in the downtube.

Hopefully other brands will finally start to see sense too
It sounds like that motor has less drag than normal ones so combined with the weight you can leave the assist off except on climbs, so more range. I get the impression the "normal" 40+lb 150mm bikes are never turned off.However, they don’t make any sense at all when all of your riding buddies can ride for five hours, and you can only ride for 2 and a 1/2.
But yeah, in five years, those light XC mountain bikes will be indistinguishable.
Sometime in the probably-near-future we'll get hybrid versions with regenerative braking to truly boost riding range without the "barely turning the cranks while the motor pushes you" effect that lazy people are just coasting on. They might not boost range a huge amount, but if weight is reasonable and you go and put in a few thousand of vert or more, you get some decent easing on the next climbs.However, they don’t make any sense at all when all of your riding buddies can ride for five hours, and you can only ride for 2 and a 1/2.

2022 Carbon? (sorry, can't remember). You should be able to simply run the hose without the plastic hose port grommets. Sugru or a wrap of gaffer should be enough to stop them moving/rattling.My Mega has an internal brake routing (not a fan, but the value on that bike was crazy).

Yeah that's awesome to hear. Mines a 22 Carbon. When I fitted the Hopes, the internal routing was sweet. All the hoses just pushed in easy and popped out where they should.2022 Carbon?

NP carbon frames internal routing is really well done. Straight through for all cables/hoses. no fishing.
During covid a few models were coming with Dominion A2s due to part shortages.
