Still, as a woman myself, I feel vividly uncomfortable looking at the image. Her expression does not help, and even if she was smiling or looking happy - this is what you'd do to protect yourself. (A smile under pressure means nothing.

It is still far far cheaper than a car. If a bike is your main mode of transportation and you're not super-poor, and this bike gives you joy every day, I'd say go for it.

Since now everyone knows this guy is not using a computer, anyone posing as him must be a fake. I think that should help.

Can you guess what happened here: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=15745250 ? It appeared that a bug in an office component was fixed with manually binary editing. Is that probable?

Yes, and it is not even that hard. But we cannot measure the future, thus we use models to predict, and those need inputs (such as emitted CFCs) which can be wrong.

It's home insulation production in China. The culprits are fully aware it's illegal, but China has some problems in getting compliance to its own laws. https://content.eia-global.org/posts/documents/000&#

If it was CTF you'd probably try to get the official solution from their recruiter's computer. I wonder if it would give them pause if it was verbatim the same.

I can also attest that their chance to pass an airport security inspection when forgotten in some pocket of a backpack is surprisingly high.

That makes it sound as if we should let people that only have a few days to live take all the heroin they want, actually. Maybe we should.

Vacuuming is good when you've waited too long and can really really see the difference it makes (not just a little).

Places to rent in cities in Germany are getting harder and harder to find because we have so many migrants, most of them from the EU. This is about the only problem we have with it locally, but it is getting annoying. The housing market is

Hm.. there must be a way to incorporate purchasing decisions into an art piece that make them very obviously part of copyright for that case..

Many people feel that having a formal way to address people is useful. It allows you to express very quickly how close you want to have them to you. A stranger you don't like? Formal. A stranger who seems to be your own age and from si

They only seem to take aerosol into account. And if you're looking at the current data, that's a saturday morning, which most properly means the traffic is pretty low.

The question is how much air bypasses the masks at the sides. The holes there are huge and any air that passes there will basically have the full smaller particle load. Do the masks produce considerably more resistance to breathing if you p

You'd think, but the really big old ones don't actually have the current time, and the screens in the departure area are usually small and less frequent than I'd like.

I am not sure you should be driving a car at seventy if you're not able to ride a bike anymore despite a livetime of experience. (and you can get bikes for various disabilities, yes)

I am really confused about the lack of clocks in airports. Train stations usually have plenty, but airports usually close to none. Why?!

It's not like the population will buy more things if you open one more day though (not sure how online shopping plays into this). So your revenue will just be spread out over more time, and your costs will be higher since you have to k

Eh, I don't think so. As mentioned above, almost all stores are closed in Germany on Sundays (not gas stations though, they will sell you emergency groceries for 2-3 times the usual price), and I don't think Germans are prepared t
