Cities evolve organically. There is no "Mr City" who mistakenly places cities too close to the shoreline. Businesses naturally accrete around ports until the mass of buildings and workforce forms a city.

The difference is in the awareness of the "fraud". A religious teacher truly believes in the existence of god, therefore they're not a fraud. It seems you need these criteria: 1. The fraud knows they are duping the subject. 2

I suppose most of the people I have heard these names from are not in the same league as you. I appreciate this summary though thanks. I also regret my sarcasm, sorry.

We see the same thing in software. I've heard people answer "Grace Hopper", "Ada Lovelace", "Charles Babbage", "Alan Turing", etc. to the same question about the origin of computers. The real thi

This is awesome. A nice improvement would be to have the loop continue with the old code when there are errors (rather than pausing iteration).

I'm lucky enough to enjoy the feeling of a place not being designed for common pedestrian use[0] but it certainly would be welcome to at least have some thoughtful art in there. [0] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ps

It's unlikely that your TDEE is 4000 calories when you're at home puttering around. These fitness trackers are extremely unreliable at estimating caloric expenditure.

This is partly an issue with phone calls as a medium. If the bank only contacted you through the app, this couldn't happen unless the app itself was compromised somehow. E.g., the Monzo app has a chat functionality built in. If, upon a

I did this with an entire rucksack full of groceries once when I was tired and used the self-checkout. When I came back the cashiers expressed surprise that I even did!

This isn't what people typically mean when they talk about weight loss, though. Which is why normally you hear recommendations for measuring your weight at the same time every day with an assumption that your eating patterns are roughl

I'm lucky enough to find cooking enjoyable and relaxing. It's something you have to do every day, so getting good at it has turned that hour-ish slot every evening into a fun and relaxing experience.

Fantastic. Makes me want to see what I can do to benefit the Scottish ecosystem just a little. I've heard planting a patch of wildflowers in your garden is a good start.
