How companies pay such low bounties for such a find is mind blowing to me.

The Berm Peak YouTube channel did a similar reverse engineering of a retro Tron style e-bike. It didn't require going to new firmware but it is a good video as well about how he could accomplish it, https://www.youtube.com&#

It's a thing for sure, maybe just not screamed about. If you run in a shoe that is 10mm+ and then go to a 0mm like an Altra - it is wild how different it feels.

The comments in the article about 'performance' are very real. When Nike was still in retail stores, 9/10 shoes were fashion sneakers and had nothing to do with athletics/running/performance. By comparison, Hoka is

Captain Steeeve’s latest video on this tragedy is shocking, complete disregard for the aviation rules. I think he cited 11 separate instances of __mandatory__ go around, the first of which was before they were anywhere near the runway at 10

The sitemap being hosted at /images/sitemaps/index.xml is a problem. Technically, that sitemap can only include URLs beginning with /images/sitemaps/. They should move that file to the root, like /sitemap_

Veritasium put out a video recently about the incredible engineering in modern turbo fan jet engines, recommended watch if this thread has your interest :-) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QtxVdC7pBQM

This is wicked. Reminds me of All Trails for hiking, Trailforks for MTB or Strava/Garmin activity map.

For reference, Semrush shows some statistics on these domains & how much traffic they are estimated to be receiving from organic search: - wifitalents.com, peaked 15 July with 18k visits & declining - worldmetrics.org, peaked 27 Jul

I'm not suggesting 'login' because facebook/twitter/etc, just as a mechanism to make the bot problem go away. They clearly want it to stop, they tried obvious methods but the AI platforms are circumventing it (delib

In the case of kernel.org, why not make the unauthenticated version return only the latest kernel repo with no history (tiny number of URLs relatively speaking). If you want full kernel.org features, login.

Is there a true cost to the banks to move money around the world or is it nominal and just another opportunity for them to gouge consumers?

I like that this could be self hosted. I don't have anything against the big password managers (I use and pay for one), but they are a massive target for hackers for obvious reasons. If everyone could self host their own vault on a per

Tom Stanton has a raft of cool videos, I like the engineering iterations he often goes through to find a working prototype.

Similarly, this is also why Google stopped enforcing trademarks years ago. It allows more people to bid on terms, increases competition, increases CPCs & of course pads their bottom line.

BMI isn’t a good metric, this has been known for a long time. For example, I’m 45yo/178cm/93kg and am obese by BMI measurement. However, my body fat is 20% (Dexa), VO2 of 50 (lab) & have the aerobic fitness to run a half marat

Sadly, zero interest on my part. If I need information, it is already within easy reach: "Hey (Google|Siri), <question>?" or Just get my phone out and use website/app of your choice.

Smart inverters allow energy companies to reduce the solar power sent to the grid to improve grid stability, avoid overload conditions etc.

If other websites exist about this topic, why are these two specifically being censored and by who? If abortion is legal (within a set of guidelines), what laws exist that these sites are breaking or close to breaking that might lead them t

I really love Hannah, great communicator and keeps it interesting. If you're interested, I'd also recommend Brian Cox as a similarly fantastic representative for maths & science.

I wonder if the ORM deletes were slow due to looping through a list calling delete on each object vs having a bulk delete method which accepts a list of IDs?

Good catch, sorry should have corrected that. While not small for a machinist, I think by the average persons definition that is a pretty small gap for the oil to occupy ;-)

The bearing surfaces in an engine (ex: crankshaft main bearings) have very tight tolerances, usually in the 15-25 thousandths of an inch. The engines oil pump fills those tiny gaps with pressurized oil which allow the metal surfaces to spin

I'm confused as to why they've allowed the data center power drain (which they knew was going to happen) to cascade into consumer power prices. Surely they should be charging consumers their existing price and charging the data ce

If it is reasonable to have your privacy in a public place, does this mean that products like Flock which indiscriminately violate your privacy would now require a warrant for law enforcement to access (currently they do not)?

That is very cool, dare I say impressive (at least in my opinion). Folks need to ease up a little I think.
