It's not common but you'll see it on some trials bikes. I was always told that that is so you can use smaller sprockets front and rear for the same ratio, giving you more bottom bracket clearance when you're hopping about the

That's brutal. Canning 1800 people not because they were bad at their jobs or for any economic factors but as collective punishment for just 200 people joining a union. Welcome to the oligarchy I guess.

I find sleep tracking to be really useful. One thing that surprised me has been seeing the affects of either alcohol or caffeine on the type and quality of the sleep I get. Even if the absolute numbers aren't 100% accurate the watch de

I remember using a Garmin Edge 1000 to navigate through a city I don't know. I could see the street I should be on running parallel to where I was but couldn't find the correct turn to take me there. Then the Garmin popped a big

I heard that it was a forced response to Sega aggressively cutting the price of the Megadrive/Genesis to the point that it made it very difficult for Nintendo to sensibly price the SNES bill of materials. Something had to go and it was

When it first came out I was so desperate to see it I watched the first episode twice without realising. I spent the whole time trying to work out what was different between the "two". I mean, it’s exactly the sort of thing he wou

This makes me sad the same way that the death of David Bowie did. “You’ve been seen associating with chickens Jack!” Without David Lynch the world is just a little bit duller today. :(

Thanks Maxime and team. YJIT is such a great contribution to the ruby community. I think the constant improvements in ruby performance are one of the things driving the ruby renaissance.

We are all doomed to be forgotten. Even if you are remembered briefly, what’s remembered isn’t you it’s just some vague representation of you that will fade over time. Some famous Roman emperor might have said something similar 2000 years a

I've done both. One of the really fun things with Rails 8 is getting PWAs out of the box and using Hotwire for Native apps with not much more work. It wont cover every use case but for what I do it's amazing. https://h

Oh I'm with you on that. I think it was a great improvement to get Thunderbolt over USB-C on iPhone Pros. I just think it's a mistake to talk about the very latest Thunderbolt 5's bandwidth vs legacy Lightning as if Apple we

Apple was selling laptops with Thunderbolt before it used a USB-C connector and were among the first to sell them with Thunderbolt over USB-C. They were, as far as I know, the first company to sell 27" monitors over Thunderbolt back in

It wasn’t just a touch screen though. Ericsson had touch screen phones for many years but they where a single touch, stylus driven UI that was clunky. I had Nokia phones with web browsing, media and a camera but it was WAP not full web and

It’s more in the line of Robocop but I could imagine a dystopian reality TV show where the show clips from people’s unguarded cameras. I know hackers already do this but this would be the TV companies doing it without any shame.

I suspect that cycle touring is the much older term than bike packing. In the UK we still have the Cycle Touring Club[1] which was founded in 1878, so it goes way back. I don't even think there was originally much difference in the typ

The King of Canada would probably want to defend his people regardless of the cost. The British Armed Forces swear an oath of allegiance to the King not the British government. If he says go, they go. It would be a gamble for even Trump tha

I think problem is not so much having named product lines but having too many overlapping product lines. Having loads of random product numbers is really no better than named ranges. If you only have 3 product lines then people will learn t

Not sure about “golf 5” but I have a Mk.7 Golf from 2014 and it’s an amazing car. There’s no telemetry left in it (3G was turned iff years ago). It has all the safety features. It regularly gets 60 something MPG (Imperial). The Adaptive Cru

Isn’t Musk an unelected part of the US government now? He’s also talking about interfering in my country by giving huge sums of money to a wacky Spode-a-like conman that’s already taken billions out of our economy. To my mind we should be s
