I love cars, but they can not handle intersections at all. For me personally it's a great injustice that cars are so valued that I am supposed to breath one of the worst kinds of air pollutions every other morning for 180 seconds while

I wish it was possible to create a tax that would make reduce and reuse more profitable, I think EU has a legislation that makes producers responsible for recycling their products and packing material maybe extend that. It feels ripe for ab

You sort out newspaper and officepaper which is pretty ok to recycle by themselves. A mix of those and e.g. glossy magazines is pretty hard to recycle, more or less like plastic you need one type of clean plastic to get good recycled plasti

That type of weather is not the norm, the amount of potential misery days on bicycle can be counted on one hand in a year, and it's easy to alleviate and make them potentially enjoyable. Please try it again it's not really the sam

Traffic lights are for organizing cars, that's the whole point of the article. Pedestrians and bycyclists are just bystanders that suffers greatly from them.

You just need some extra clothes to handle -18°C no problem at all IMHO, and as long as the temprature is below freezing you will have no problem with shitty roads. I would say the winter is the best season to bicycle, you can go everywhere

Generally it's included, especially in travel time. Generally the bicycle wins if you live in a city, even with if you freshen up at home and at work.

Can you calculate it on the fly by doing a slower transfer to the display, I'm guessing it already does double buffering?

This is a wonderful subject, memes and group think, I would say everyone feels like they are part of an minority/snowflake community in some of their views. Memes just makes it easier to get that feeling. So it is not possible to have

No the basic rule is ALWAYS have enough safety marginals so you can handle the unsuspected. What you are saying is just a round about way to tell bicyclists to always yield for cars. It also has no support if you look at statistics, around

Not sure it's different enough to warrant a new letter, but Spanish O and Scandinavian Å has the same sound so I guess it's all very muddled.

Most importantly addressing behaviour is the only way to get injuries down, buying more useless protection gear does not work. The cult of the helmet need to stop.

I know it's an edge case that doesn't fit Amazon Lambdas atm. I do it by hand ATM, so I know it can be done, but sure I run it on too many preowned servers to handle peaks. Controlling serverless resources in a more fine grained

More like CGI scripts with a loadbalancer that promises to run your application on a host with enough memory within at most 600ms. That solves an actual problem with CGI scripts, but I really would love to see more tiers with lower latency

Agreed since the toolchain is aimed at automatic conversion of C/C++ applications to WebAssembly, emulating filesystems, graphics etc, that makes it feel sluggish for me. At this point I haven't seen many people using WebAssembly

That seems hypothetical, if you did that and sent private messages etc. then I do think there should be some repercussions. I've seen those accusations happen twice and no one got fired, but both victim quit shortly after. This did ge

Often people are in all of those categories, they use what I see as marketing speech to talk about their own experiences. Those experiences might differ from mine so what I dismiss as parroting or marketing is later shown just to be differe

You are already using ammend and rebase, you can do plenty of complex and hairy stuff with that, especially as a team. I'm also guessing you use merge and log at times. FWIW this is my philosphy with git too, but have you not experienc

The examples are not simply about storing two key value pairs. His new books do not include the facts from the examples given in this article. It seems to be easy to miss the technical point by being upset about we think is polemics.
