fluxbox, awesome or any other tiling windows manager plus conky can be very near to this interface. Of course, that's just the windowing system and not the GUI itself.

I wonder if there is any other complexity involved by Disney also owning the rights to "On Stranger Tides" by Tim Powers, which also inspired Monkey Island.

About CD burners, I remember sharing one with a friend from the same building I was living, by encasing it on an external SCSI box. 4x speed, no less! It took me a while to realize that walking around on my room whilst burning a CD produced

In case you mean the dot just next to London, that's a town named Slough, with their own bike share system. By clicking on the dots you can actually zoom in on the systems. Here are some links with these zoomed in: - https:/&#x2F

Seems Stockholm's system in Citybikes were the remnants of a test project by JCDecaux, which was providing the data. The actual project on Stockholm is run (or at least used to be) by ClearChannel. Actually, many years ago we supported

Something interesting is that in Madrid you need Spanish to survive, compared to Barcelona where most people (at least on tech circles) can speak English fluently. So yes, if it's for Spanish fluency, definitely Madrid.

(born in Barcelona, lived on both cities): these two are really different places. Tech scene is also clearly different. As I see it, Barcelona is smaller and cozier, tech scene might be hotter, but that might be from my own bias. Madrid is

Several things the article does not mention: - Some workers are pressured to rent a scooter or an e-bike. Having bike carriers is cool, but they prefer faster and long ranges. They rent from companies that have a deal with the parent compan

If you deliver with a scooter you get a little more for every delivery and can access more delivery zones, but you pay for gas.

Omitting the obvious remarks on Twitter and APIs, this is clearly a good move. Most companies have a twitter handle and the public has already absorbed that fact, so it just seems more natural to offer a bot through twitter DM service than,

Are we going to pretend none of this is done, including the article, just for the sake of creating drama and gossip? Maybe I am trying to look too much into it, but it's pretty clear there's a network of content producers behind t

The change on strategy with no simulated ball between predicted trajectory and target catching point is pretty interesting, although it would also have been interesting to have an speed estimate on target catching to assert how fast the bal

Since I see no mention on wages (maybe OT) I will chime in: Value your work, even if you think you are "still learning". I spent way too much time on under-market salaries writing good code. I wish someone had told me I could be e

I consider an operating system that randomly includes ads on their OS tools far from 'not bad'.

Also note that https://www.opencyclemap.org/ has been available for quite some years, based on OSM data too.

We do offer an API through https://api.citybik.es with as many feeds as we can gather. Note though that no more than 10% of the feeds on citybikes are what one would consider 'open data'. If you are interested in the a

As a note, these are not OSM tiles but mapbox. Last I checked I couldn't use vector tiles from mapbox using upstream leaflet, so decided against it for now until I find a better solution.

Hey, thanks! The numbers are real, although the timing might not be. There's an endpoint diffing our data by the minute and distributing the changes over that minute to give it the real-ish impression. A green explosion means somebody

My bad, the site does not degrade correctly to mobile devices. There's a nasty hack for hijacking focus on the map in order to keep it as a hero and being able to scroll down that has not been tested enough. Also note this is keeping a

In my experience the best thing about Leaflet is the possibility of using CSS to style, transform and animate markers. Shameless plug, see for instance this map using css 'explosions': https://citybik.es

That is a different case than configuring a different remote on config and pushing to another host which is what I interpreted reading your comment, my bad. Out of curiosity, does the import process include all issues, PR and comments?

Not wanting to diminish what GitLab is doing, but what you mention is an inherent characteristic of git itself that applies the same way to GitHub, Bitbucket and a self hosted git bare repository. Any git host should expose a git interface
