While it's shoddy statistics, at least in this case the implied effect seems to be real. According to these two sources [1][2] that just came up when I searched for this, prevalence of wearing life-jackets among kayakers appears to be

Given a good control link such as ExpressLRS [0], people can also fly quadcopters 10+ kilometers on as little as 10 mW. See for example the range competition at [1]. Of course, the VTX is usually a different matter.. [0] https://w

For the Sponsorblock browser addons you can configure them to only show you a button to skip the segments if you like. I'm not sure if that option is available in Vanced or the NewPipe Sponsorblock fork.

Couldn't display-switch send a keypress (something that doesn't do much otherwise, like F15) automatically? You could probably get that result at the moment using the external command feature and something like xdotool (on Linux)

I can also recommend https://game-icons.net . As the name suggests, it mostly focuses on icons for games, but I find a lot of them are also usefull for other purposes. Most importantly they have a consistent style, so your stuff

I think you are conflating popularity of an argument with popularity as part of an argument. For the former, it's easy to agree that it does not affect the correctness of the argument. But in the articles case, popularity is part of th

Every ICE car I've ever driven did exactly that with the 'reserve' where the needle is already at (or below) the zero line but you still get about 50 km of range.

I'm unsure if it even applies in your case, but there is the risk of inadvertently creating botulism when storing garling in oil [1]. Since you are refigerating and adding acid, I'd expect it's probably not an issue. [1] htt

I agree to some extent of course. If there really are meaningful concepts for intermediates or the whole formula, especially if you are applying it to a specific domain, you should name them. (I also just looked up the equations and noticed

For maths, the problem just sometimes lives in a deeper level of abstraction where you need to understand the problem anyway to make any meaningful changes to the code. So I don't think you'd really gain anything by renaming the k

In Germany at least, companies are not allowed to put the printer in 'busy' areas. Starting from a certain company size, a seperate room may even be required. I believe particulates are explicitly given as a reason for this. I

You probably know them, but oshpark is great! You pay by the square inch, which was really fortunate for me because I needed a (very) small pcb for a project, and they made and shipped it to me (to Germany!) for less than 2$ at the time. T

Looks very cool. Will definitely try it out for mapping out a scenario. One thing I immediately wanted was a way to link certain lines to different pages. For example, I might come up with a character or other feature of a city on the spot

Why not? Just schedule a single health check with a loop that tries to health-check N times in a loop, with a delay in between. If the check succeeds at any point, return 'healthy' early. Or schedule N health checks at different t
