Cosmic crisp has such good flesh but the skin is awfully tough. Is there a best of both worlds? (I like sweetango too but it's hard to find)

That's not correct. There's substantial evidence for kin selection and inclusive fitness: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kin_selection (Used to be a biologist)

This is tremendously fun, thank you! Your solution seems to assume that all cuts need to be directed towards a single point, but doesn't it seem likely that an even more optimal solution increases h (depth of cut target) as the cuts mo

I adore polars for its speed and I find the interface easier than pandas. But pandas still has a richer ecosystem of stuff built around it. I try to use polars in greenfield things but occasionally get yoinked back.

Scooters are a fine option that gives you some of the advantages of the bike, such as "I can find a parking spot just about anywhere, suckers!", but I'd strongly consider electric for anyone pondering. For a purely local tran

As a paying Kagi user, in my case, that's because I !g any query that I expect to give local results for, and I often go directly to maps.google.com for map results. The general search results are awesome, particularly in my tech bubbl

It wasn't under $1k but you can do some options for close-ish to that: a cargo e-bike. It's been amazing and has let us remain a one car family despite two kids with a lot of activities. I adore it. About to hit 2k miles on it.

Same for google music. I wonder if the author meant stage right, or if they had something swapped. (It matches my memory of the CD version but I don't feel like pulling the CD pile out of the basement for this.)

We've used both gabb and an apple watch and they both work decently well. The apple watch has a few too many features by default but it's not as engrossing as a smartphone. The gabb watch was great overall. We switched from gabb -

It would be a mistake to think their experience is anything close to that of people in poverty, regardless of their ability to walk away from it. Poverty doesn't involve affording the capital outlay for $16k of solar/battery/

As someone who teaches PhD students who are quite far beyond "average professional", I concur completely with PG on this one. Writing forces you to make very clear and concrete ideas that feel like they make sense but are still fu

Ah, that's interesting and makes sense. Thank you!

Sometimes it's fun to do things when there's no real world consequence attached to failure and experimentation even if the mechanics are similar to something we do for work. I sometimes do project euler puzzles for fun. I'm a

First, congrats! Awesome work and appreciate you sharing more. Second: I'm confused by something in your readme. It says: > For Mersenne primes search, the PRP test is by far preferred over LL, such that LL is not used anymore for s

I don't think there's anything to get - it's just for fun. It started as an AARL one-off for the 110th anniversary of the establishment of national parks in the US, and proved popular, and turned into its own thing. I think i

This is a bit of a misunderstanding. A single out of order packet will not cause a reduction; tcp uses three duplicate acks as a loss signal. So the packet must have been reordered to arrive after 3 later packets. Latency does not increase

Starlink is better in this regard now. First, the ground station density in the US is really quite good and you're likely to be able to hit a single up/down path through most emergencies. And, second, over the last year they'

I would like to introduce you to my six year old. Mind you, it's much more likely the two phones involved would be mine and my wife's.

Not to ruin a joke, but . . It's a reverse of the Transformers "robots in disguise" tagline, and quite appropriate given that Tesla named them "Optimus" (as in prime, the name of a transformer).

I feel a little jaded for thinking that I hope both the people running it and people submitting have good attorneys advising them on this. The wording on that page implies a lot but has very few specifics - it feels like it's just invi

You must feel strongly about this given that you've chosen an article about the magazine Popular Science to rant about an entirely different magazine. It's almost like politics does, in fact, have a way of intruding in everything

Your posting history seems to primarily consist of an anti-China narrative. For example, "Also, they could just remind people that China released COVID which killed millions and cost countries billions." (which, well, those are de
