Milk in glass bottles. Meat is wrapped in paper. Eggs go in a a paper carton. Cheese is tricky, most markets still wrap cut cheese in plastic, so I have to buy it from an actual cheese shop that uses waxed paper. Consequently I don’t eat mu

If your organization lacks the ability to enforce good practices, train engineers how to behave, and otherwise acculturate people to your ways then there is no particular style of repo that can save you from failure.

You can definitely inspect the changes that have been integrated into a perforce branch with filelog and changes, it's not worth pointing out exactly how, you can find examples online (much like git). And if you don't like how p4

Why do you dislike perforce? I’ve used them all and git is the worst, in my opinion, of the ones that aren’t dead and buried (like cvs). Perforce is my fave. Internal research at google suggested that ‘git5’ users were objectively less prod

Actually, hours after this trucker blew up the freeway, caltrans was on the streets of oakland grinding up a bike lane to make an extra lane for cars, no public input required. “Diligence” is how they delay green transportation projects onl

The article does not support your conclusion. It may be that you just have to press the pedal more to get a given amount of torque.

EV design is totally different from ICE design in this regard. EV design is all about how to avoid shorting the battery across the motor. ICE UX mirrors a physical process: the throttle pedal lets more air into the engine. In an electric

That's probably just an illusion with respect to electric motorcycles. All high-performance motorcycles have way more than enough torque to overwhelm the traction of their one little tire. They are _all_ "artificially slower&quo

It does, yes. I always drive my electric Honda in its "eco mode", which only changes the response to throttle position. I get noticeably more range in that mode. In the "sport mode" it will just about rip the axles of

Every EV is "artificially slower" than it could be and the response to driver inputs is a totally arbitrary design decision.

The tradeoff was the throughput of your compilation was terrible. BeOS wasn't magic, it just prioritized the UI over all else. That's not advanced, it's just one possible choice. MacOS prior to OS X had the same property: l

No, not even close. The nationwide rate of mental illness among homeless people is about one in four, or quadruple the rate of all people. But in the Bay Area where housing pressure is more severe the rate of mental illness among the homele

It's basically impossible to increase housing utilization to 100%. It's pointless to even try. 10% is a healthy vacancy rate. Build 110% of the housing your city needs.

This is a bad-faith argument advanced by the opponents of construction (landowners, essentially). The facts are that San Francisco vacancy rate is among the lowest in the nation, stands near the all-time low for that city, and is way below
