That one is specifically for Paris as seen by a Parisian. I would not argue that's the case globally, and there are certainly studies showing otherwise in other contexts. Usage of e-scooter and e-bikes decreases car traffic yes. But do

Parisian here, for context I've been cycling to work for about 10 years now (before Paris transformed into a cycle-friendly city). There are a lot of speculations and hypothesis from people who don't live in Paris and try to apply

My solution is to: * use a virtualenv, so that dependencies are installed per project and not globally * only specify my top-level dependencies in a requirements.in file, and let pip-compile (a dependency, part of pip-tools) compile my requ

It doesn't have to be price or ideology driven (though it can be). It's the rational choice for a lot of people. When a car is the slowest form of transport, costly to own, and you can rent/borrow a car for the very few occas

The above comment exagerates based on anecdota. From what I gathered, it's a lot less of an issue compared to the US, but scam calls & SMS do happen. My anecdota: I'm French, and receive scam calls from time to time. They are

What has worked for me is to do it as a hobby on my spare time. Of course that only applies to fields you can do as a hobby and place some heavy limitations. For physics / real engineering, you can take classes after-work. For more phy

I took 10 years of piano. I wanted to when I was a child (and I chose the piano). The problem for me has not been the kind of music I had to play. My problem is I only learned to perfectly play a song with sheet paper, by repeating it over

Changing oil is specifically allowed here, and I'm pretty sure every first world country has rules against dumping oil and other polluting elements. If this is the goal, it's really backward as it is only loosely related.

I do have an engineering degree in France, but even then I think the "software engineer" title is just wrong. There is little actual engineering going on in most development jobs (most. Some do have actual engineering). At least i

I feel you, but unless you really want to experience the game without any outside resource (in which case, good luck, and I understand being turned off), I really encourage you to try again while using guides, the wiki, and asking question

It definitely is more emergent than most games once you get past the early stage. A few examples to make that clear: - to get petroleum, you have to refine crude oil. There is a building that does that, but you only get 50% of the mass out.

If it's for fun, it shouldn't feel like work. While others have some good suggestion, I'm going to ask the hard question: do you really want to be coding as a hobby? The fact that you ask that question suggest you already co

The decor system is something you can safely ignore for all the game. The worst you can get is a -1 Morale malus, which is laughably low and doesn't have any consequence (as long as you keep Dupes Morale high enough, which is easy: don

I'm going to respectfully disagree. ONI is not hard. At least the first asteroid with normal settings (called "Survival") is not hard. What's hard is the steep difficulty curve when you are first picking up the game, esp

Yes. GDPR is not focused on storage only, but on data handling as a whole. No matter where the data is stored, it's still collected and handled by Discord, thus they are responsible for what they do with it.

It's much more complicated in practice, but in theory, it's pretty simple: convert existing car lanes to bike lanes. Chaos will ensue as the construction work and reduced road throughput inevitably generate huge jams. That chaos i

I wasn't aware of that, thanks! Replying to sibling: that 30-pin connector predates the Memorandum. It's exactly such chargers that the EU wanted to regulate at the time. Every company had their own incompatible charger.

Saying there was no mandate is only technically true. The EU gave an ultimatum to phone companies to make a compatible charger "or else", which led to a "Memorandum of Understanding" [1] deciding on Micro-USB. Apple didn

Thanks for the feedback! I've not had the occasion to try gravel tires. For me, the main reason to use road tires is grip on asphalt, not rolling resistance improvment. On your commute, you may need to stop in an instant, and more grip

I'm in agreement with almost everything except the tires. Unless your commute has a significant portion of rough surfaces, you definitely want to use some road tires. Not the super skinny ones used on road bikes, so you don't have
