It can actually be easier to raise children in places with good bike infrastructure, because you don’t have to be their chauffeur. They can bike themselves around. And for smaller children, in cities like Amsterdam, it’s common to see a mom

I scan them through a quarter inch or so of wood, so this should be no problem.

Wow I just built something very much like this. For Album artwork I recommend iTunes Artwork Finder[1], which can pull high res artwork from anything on iTunes. "Under the Pink" is on there. I looked into using Moo cards as well,

They don’t have to return the ETH, they agreed to return the ETH. 9 of 13 of the leaders of the (centralized) org have to agree to be able to move funds back to the people, there’s nothing technically forcing them to do so. Beside maybe a l

Pieces snap together when moving passed each other, even if they aren't both in front. I just had a lot of fun exploiting this by stacking all the pieces on top of each other and then just "printing" the puzzle by moving the

QR codes are big ugly squares, so I can understand why some popular apps decide to roll their own. But it certainly makes them way less convenient and universal. Can’t just open your camera app. It took me maybe 45 seconds just now to find

They mention in the article that normal protocol is to immediately soak the thumb in bleach. Not sure if that’s actually effective though, or just hopeful.

When did you do this comparison? A couple years ago I did a comparison and found Google the best and Amazon to be not very good. Agree it’s best to skip tesseract unless the free cost is important. We spent a lot of time trying to preproces

This doesn’t use electricity at all, the “solar power” is heat from the sun causing the water to evaporate. It’s a still, not a filter. According to the article the salt/brine freely flows back into the body of water.

Rather than texting the consumer a security code and having them enter it in the browser, you could display a security code in the browser and have them text it to your automated system. But there’s still no way to know if that number later

How long ago did you try it? I had a similar experience with Home Assistant a couple years ago, but they’ve made a ton of progress on UX recently. I still wouldn’t recommend for a typical consumer, but should be easy for someone building th

The article states a huge spike in imports are causing a traffic jam worse than when the port of LA workers went on strike a few years ago. I went searching for the "why" behind imports spiking and came across this: >U.S. consu

I imagine there's some exaggeration here, but someone drove across the US in 25 hours averaging 110 MPH [1]. Given that, 143MPH for 2 hours doesn't seem that crazy. [1] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cannonball

They mention in the article that a live map of the trains themselves is minor and more of an afterthought. The main purpose is to show live updated route information.

That's an unrealistic scenario since 5% (10% of 50%) of the population doesn't have an otherwise difficult to detect and life threatening condition. And if they did, then there is a serious problem and we would expect the hospital
