Electricity is mostly hydro. But most greenhouses over here are heated directly with geothermal hot water, not electricity.

Sure! I miswrote VGA16, it's actually VGA8. I'm on a retina display, and set the size to 16pt. I do have anti-alias disabled in e.g. iTerm2, but visually it makes no difference. In iTerm2 I disable "Draw bold text in bold fon

Yes, you can do 30-40 on the bicycle paths, and bicycle paths are not used by pedestrians.

Been using this (VGA16) on both linux and Mac in all editors, terminals, IDEs for about a year. It's by far the best typeface for me, and I've tried many.

60 is indeed handy since it divides into 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6. 30 would be much less convenient. Better to drop the 5 (as evidenced by 12 and 24) I think the gp just generalized a bit to much. Units of time weren't chosen for those (prime

My bricks were in a circular denim sheet, that pulled closed into a bag by tightening a string that was threaded through eyelets along the perimeter. I believe it was even Lego branded.

The description says it: "multiple concurrent, mutually distrustful applications" Although there is some support for setting up MPUs, generally FreeRTOS applications have full access to all the memory.

Ah fair enough, I misunderstood. I agree doing things for the sole reason of being virtuous doesn't make sense. Although I do think the origin of "virtue" is because some things had good general effects, but nobody was able t

Because it isn't a problem with planting. That's very easy, and people volunteer to do it. When I was a kid (I'm Icelandic) we'd go on field trips and plant hundreds. The problem is keeping the growth alive.

I think it depends on the situation. In many cases these can be handled at the app level, in particular relationships. If you use any kind of ORM, most of your queries will be on primary keys so there is less need for other indexes. Views a

I don't understand that last sentence, could you rephrase please?

That is incorrect. U2F relies on the browser to correctly report the domain you are signing into. If your browser is compromised, you can be phished. But it would have your cookies/tokens already, so probably no need to.

That's only true if you hit smaller vehicles. Hitting other busses, trucks, traffic structures, trees, or rolling over, is going to be just as bad.

Driving slower might quite possibly save on fuel, even if it takes longer. Parking a bus that long where it is convenient for the early risers to get off isn't necessarily easy either. Plus, as others mention, you'd wake everyone
