Is this a joke? Poland has a larger population than chile, better per capita GDP, and is a power house in the middle of Europe. They do still have some internal problems but this is nothing compared to the (low key) international conflicts

Thanks for the superb article, I'm basing my statements from testing in real world. I have some 3G/4G phones connected to large batteries, transfering 1MB to 100MB now and then, while they do run different kernels the 4G phones co

The greatest share of accidents are because of infrastructure, so put all your effort into getting better road for foot and cycle traffic, it's more effective to prevent accidents than injuries. I've never hurt my head while on a

Think about moving around hash buckets, not sites nor files. You can decide what you want to keep in memory data or metadata. Now you need both sites+file metadata, neither of those need to be stored when serving static files you yourself r

If you had the resources to host your own tracker/repository/wiki/mailinglist instead of using Sourceforge you did that. Github is so good it's actually hard to convince people it would be a good idea to have server for

I've heard a girl talk about her rape in a friendly environment where we were all good friends, it became awkward and impossible to go on. If I was in her shoes I would never bring it up again, so the chances of hearing stuff like thes

In Sweden all personal transport by car takes 45 TWh per year, if everyone converted to electric cars/hybrids it would be 13 TWh. That's what the propaganda says anyway. Since most personal transports by car are so short it's

My conclusion was spotty data, I've seen similar holes in the radar map for rain not only in one place. One could ask the people who make the data why it looks that way.

I guess they get more foot traffic, and living streets (more shopping/social life etc). If you get that and less cars in traffic I guess I see a win there.
