Bike paths / lanes in the US are typically not plowed reliably, or worse, street snow is plowed into the bike lanes. I can ride in rain short of a hurricane, I cannot ride through snow and on ice.

This is a super trivial example of a very simple algorithm that doesn't have to interact with any other systems. It's almost certainly copied directly from the training data as well, which is fine for an educational toy example, b

You see an inefficient system. Companies see a way to hold onto the money for longer, which makes them better able to use that money elsewhere in the meantime like continuing to earn from investments, benefit slightly from inflation, and po

Note that this is just a tiny subset of companies that use VMWare (those that have writeups). I've worked for some very big companies that used it but aren't listed.

Private keys are not proof of ownership, they are a technical implementation detail. That crypto has been poorly designed so that keys are all people have to prove ownership is a failure of design but doesn't fundamentally change the d

So far it's really just asset valuations coming back to earth. With employment so high, wages higher than ever, and the problem is that we can't get enough supplies are employees, can we really call this a crash for the economy a

There's a couple takeaways from the first article. The cyclists with helmets are the serious ones riding for sport. I'd also guess commuters who are going long distances wear helmets. These cyclists are putting in far more miles t

I got doored while biking once. I fell head first into a van. Got away with nothing but scrapes. Helmets absolutely protect against cars. If I'd been hit, I'd have fallen. Head hits ground, you're fucked.

If Tether had sufficient reserves, they wouldn't be fighting to hide the details of those reserves. It should be obvious to any observer that they have little reserves and have basically taken the money and run.
