It is actually quite a lot. For example, there are 6400 mammal species.

Cool! Flickr actually has a group "Field Guide: Birds of the World" and it tags photos of birds with their species. Combined with Flickr's API this is a gold mine to retrieve freely licensed photos of birds by species. The ma

I have seen about 180. Nothing to brag about but it has taken me about 10 years. I have not been obsessive about it but has been a leisure activity many weekends. I have done it around the area I have been, but not travelled further than ma

I think I get it. If it has natural ingredients, such as plain cream, egg, sugar, could be nice.

I agree, it could be replicated, but is it? I feel that there are much fewer independent forums than there used to. And if instead the conversation steps into Facebook, then I am not following.

Yes I would, but not in the most common sense. Basically, I would categorize any internet forum or bulletin board a social media. At least if you go by some kind of identity and that identity persists. As opposed to traditional media, which

Something like this at first feels like bad news, but may later turn out to be good. If something hooks me off Reddit and I use my time better, it is a net positive, for me. Unfortunately, Reddit has good parts to which I don't know al

That story is a despicable example of shabby police work. They found blood on the lawnmover and assumed it was her blood. They never tested the kind of blood. It turned out it was blood from snails.

I did not feel engaged to the plot. The dialogue felt abstract and kind of went over my head. Someone mentioned that the film is "very Russian" and perhaps that is part of it. I have extremely limited exposure to Russian culture b

I saw A Hidden Life within the last month and it is one of the best movies I have seen. I have also seen Stalker and after an interesting start it eventually bored me. I can see why you make the comparison, but I found them very different.

I started watching it tonight, because of this thread. It was my second attempt. I quit about 40 minutes in and started to browse IMDB user reviews in hope to understand it. The 1 star reviews resonated a lot with me. Hate is a strong word

The Thin Red Line is one of my top films, and I walked out of The Tree of Life. Only afterwards did I realize they were directed by the same guy. And then this spring I saw A Hidden Life. I thought it was absolutely fantastic. I plan to rew

When speaking about this, it is good to be clear about what kind of history is being talked about. In my opinion, the most important history is the one being taught in schools, because it is the one that everyone will relate to later on.

> My favorite bit of Saab trivia is that in the 60s, Norway offered Sweden half of its mineral interests in the North Sea in exchange for 40% of Saab. Sweden declined. Never heard of that. Feels like an obfuscated version of the Volvo-No

This is what I long have suspected to be the case. At least for cookbooks of the very common kind. Perhaps the most well known ones do it differently. But cookbooks are a dime a dozen, and probably most commonly bought as gifts. Quality is

Imagine being mega famous and poor at that. Are there any examples of this? People who got famous and did not make money from it? I guess some have wasted it though

Not aware. But I was once examined by an eye doctor after having been exposed to a quite intensive amount of light. He said that during eye surgery they used very powerful light. So I think the bar is quite high, in comparison to AR glasses

Yeah, when I started in this field 20+ years ago, the wisdom I learned was that it was bad practise to tie yourself to the DB like that. But just like you I can see the value in doing it. SQL may be one of the most futureproof languages the

But is there not a "minimal Makefile" type of subset that you can use that appears really clean and tidy? My Makefiles are super basic and are basically task runners. Perhaps there are traps I have not fallen into but I value that

I mean, most people are not interested in doing crimes, no matter the sentence. Do you expect someone to say, "cool, only one year for burglary, what a steal!"

Is that common? I thought it varied depending on the team, but usually that 1 pt is the shortest meaningful piece of work. Where I work now, 5 pt is not especially much. We have total story points delivered in a sprint around 120.
