If you're not going to even bother to take the time to write an article, why should I waste my time reading it?

(I liked the article, personally.)
This website is going downhill, almost every blog post I open is just blatantly AI generated these days. It's like people don't have any self-awareness anymore, they just lazily prompt their AI to generate a post and then pat themselves on the back lol.
I've seen coding LLMs do it too. I have a well-tested, but complex, subsystem that constantly draws their attention when something non-obvious elsewhere goes wrong.
It would be very hard not to die in a traffic accident while debugging in this way.
Welcome to hell, developer!
I’m a Garmin user and it blows my mind that the interface was chosen. Buttons and touch screen and confusion.
Not helped by both Garmin and Strava not putting enough arrows on the path of travel on their maps.
If you have a route the uses the same road in both directions (eg you ride to somewhere then back along the same path) it isn’t possible to tell when to turn off. Why can’t there be arrows indicating direction of travel?
And that’s when it’s working. Garmin seem to break shit on software updates and then sync stops working, the radar disconnects, it won’t lock on a satellite etc.
Can Apple make a bike computer please? Or at least play nice and sync their watch with Garmin properly?
I can feel the pain.
I imagine the companies making the devices think they are “protecting” their secrets from competitors, though now it might be easier to ask an LLM for whatever feature they want to copy.
I'm also curious about what the electronic derailleurs and shifters run.
They also never seem to fail (unless the batteries are flat).
Fun fact: my non e-bike has lots of batteries.
2 in the shifters 2 in the derailleurs 1 in the front light 1 in the rear light/radar 1 in the computer + phone AirPods (transparency mode!).
Neat…
