I can't even play at a level I used to be able to play in the games I loved, I imagine they would fair a bit better given the time. I think it is time too, I can't dedicate 4 straight hours to a single game problem like I could be

No one wants you zipping around them on a suitcase in general, I dont think a speed limit helps (also enforcement). A complete ban makes sense for the same reason you can't ride your bicycle or scooter in the airport.

Those rules are about delineation between scooters and bicycles. The easiest way to think about it is this: Bicycles have performance limitations for safety and licensing reasons, pedal assist with a speed limit has proven a convenient perf

It's worldwide too, I have never had a coffee that wasn't bitter from any Starbucks. A milk heavy coffee like a latte is a drink that shouldn't need it, but even those are too bitter at Starbucks. What it actually reminds me

The only starbucks I've seen were in urban centres nowhere near parking, so I couldn't quite picture it at first. I wonder what percentage of starbucks this is viable at.

You might be getting a downvote for trivializing the issues I think, but there is definitely something to be said for stacking the deck against yourself when it comes to debugging. I focus a lot on reducing iteration time to keep devs effic

I don't think that is the solution either. From someone who lives in a country without safe harbour style laws, it is prohibitively risky to bootstrap digital ventures that work with customer images. Something like imgur or giphy would

Cheeky buggers. I'm also aware of an attack/exploit on carpark ticketing systems that people are using to get cheap parking. I wouldn't call it sophisticated but it does require an understanding of the system above your avera

All the same stuff, to be honest. If AI is set to replace human work, well we have had a cheap human labour market for decades and yet we still need software. An LLM can't replace a business itself, which is made up of niche processes,

I'm focussing on cars because they are the far more likely culprit. Few cities in American even have a metro, so it's the less wide spread issue.

I did understand that. The regulations have no teeth not because they lack penalties, it's because they are ineffectual atat achieving the goal. It is clear what the outcome of the regulations was supposed to be, products with sesame a

No I didn't, I understand what they have done to skirt the regulations but that is what I mean. It's so easy to get around the regulations, even the new one, they have no teeth. It's clear the companies are acting in bad fait

If the regulations had teeth and they weren't allowed to cross contaminate at all, they would build a process that achieves that. Instead they get to put a few labels on there and just accept that they'll lose some customers who a

What non traffic noise? I am struggling to come up with a single thing that could be consistently as loud as a road and actually be likely near a school. Whereas cars are made basically mandatory, so will always be near schools.

Roads are never less safe by reducing the speed, except in the case that the road design didn't also change to accompany the reduction. If you slow down a 60mph road to 20mph you need to signal with the design, that it's not safe

Government run chopshops is what you are suggesting. The incentives are all bad, it would get exploited even if the profit goes to a school, because the middlemen still get paid. Kickbacks to cops getting cars into the workshop. I don'

I will genuinely think this through, as I had never considered it could be part of a collective identity. I think in general Australians are quite disconnected from politics. Complacency is likely how we ended up with our authoritarian lean

I do agree. People believe VR has failed again and again, but actually it's quite successful in various niches and the experience it provides in those niches is irreplaceable by other technology. The needs and desires of those niches a

I am talking about people, not politics. Unless you think individual Australians, are well known for their personal authoritarianism? I don't find myself conducting much authoritarianism but admittedly I do keep a pretty tight grip on

I don't disagree entirely, but there is a pretty strong hint of the self-aware dry humour typical of Australians. I think he believes what he's saying, but they're probably not taking themselves that seriously or literally.

I don't think it is fair to assume your average person understands that their personal rants are ending up in an LLM/Publically accesible AI, even if the T&Cs say they can. That's what the fuss is about I guess, we are wo

That is certainly true, but message queues are pretty well suited to tagging and audit logs. So the systems involved tag the messages and an audit repository can accept logs from all services. I guess this isn't in contrast to a monoli

Japan has heaps of this kind of moderate-high density. You notice they don't have heaps of high rises there, and I think this size of building is a great middle ground. You get more vibrant street levels thanks to the commerce floor, a

They aren't a general solution and don't really add much to your average application. But there are still instances where they make a lot of sense. What I would need to see required before bothering with a message queue architectu
