As someone who lives in a fairly spread-out city, I still prefer bikes and public transit. Or skip the commute entirely and work from home. I know that isn't true for everyone, but for me the edge cases are the only case for having a c

For me, it really depends on the type of video. For fixing cars, I'm usually looking for something specific enough that there isn't a lot of chaff. It was probably recorded and edited on a phone just to splice the clips together.

I cannot downvote here anyway, which is fine. On other platforms, I have come to believe that it is healthier for me to reply to content that I feel good about upvoting, and just moving on if I am tempted to downvote.

You could say that the Netherlands is more suited to trains because it is flat and easy to build tracks on. Or because it is dense. Or maybe the Netherlands is poorly suited to trains because it is dense and difficult to get suitable land.

Do you want it preheated? It might improve ignition, but isn't it a heat engine that gains efficiency from a large temperature gradient?

Finland and Iceland also have some of the highest suicide rates in Europe. It seems that the correlation between happiness (or well-being) and suicide is complex. Which makes sense: it can be isolating if everyone around you seems to be thr

That's interesting. How relevant is energy transport in comparison to the optical effects? Eg: my understanding is that hurricanes are net cooling because they transport heat from the ocean surface to the upper atmosphere. Presumably t

I don't think it is a strange point of view: Fedora is a good outcome, so don't question how the sausage is made. Maybe it is shortsighted in the long run? We'll see. I'm glad that we have choices -- AUR on one hand, Fed

It was always "permissionless publish", but it is worth remembering that it wasn't a free speech system (until alt.*) Each group had a manifest of rules. I think that the issue was that the enforcement mechanisms were largely

I agree with your main point, but Arizona is $13.85, Colorado is $13.65 and Illinois is $13.00.

I think you misread: GP claimed that PTFE is a type of PFAS, and separately: PFOA is also a type of PFAS. And if PFAS is the problem, it wouldn't be useful to ban specific classes like PFOA if they are just replaced by different classe

If we imagine that excess water from Wyoming is used to grow crops in California, it seems reasonable to assume that it would be less moisture/precipitation for Nebraska. But if it is used to grow wheat in Colorado (because the obligat

Reddit's main asset is its community, so it is odd to cast the community as their opposition.

Do cities have redundant water sources though? Not all of NYC's water goes through Hillview Reservoir, but it seems like a pretty serious vulnerability to me. It doesn't seem like a terrible analogy. But cities are worth the risk,

I have the same issue, but with the opposite conclusion: if this were integrated with cp/mv/dd, I wouldn't be able to rely on getting the new versions. But since it is separate, I can install it where and when I need it, perh

It might not be worth the delay to investigate, but it is certainly worth the time and money. If it is an easy win in one case, how do you identify the hard wins? Perhaps more importantly, you learn the biggest hurdles so that you can add

I don't think that your points are actually in conflict. If this is my source code, I want the whole history. I want that 10-year old commit that isn't used in any current branch. A build machine may not need any history: it just

Amazon had a net income of $33b in 2021 with ~1600000 employees: ~$20k/employee. Exxon had $23b with 63000 employees: ~$360k/employee. I'm just using numbers from a quick search, and it won't be great because they both h

To me, Scala's issue is identity crisis, not complexity. Some of the community wanted to pretend it is Haskell, and others wanted a better version of Java. But if you want a JVM functional language, why not Clojure? If you want a bette

Consider this version: there is someone on the track and if I don't act, they will almost certainly die. Or I can act and almost certainly save them, but it sends the trolley somewhere unexpected. If I were a professional rail operator
