> Also, BART doesn't share tracks with any other system, so there's no reason to do it for compatiblity's sake either. Isn't that a chicken/egg issue? How could BART share tracks with systems using incompatible r

This pattern appeared in my math math education in the USA as well, but not as pronounced as in physics or chem. The biggest example is that we were initially taught that you cannot take the square root of a negative number. I also have vag

The way it generally works IME is that if I want someone's data I better have my own thumb drive to get it, and if somebody wants mine they better have their own.

I recently started having trouble with 7zip at work due to shared sharepoint folders and the like. I wound up finding ZanaZip which was forked from 7zip but keeps up with modern OS changes.

When and where were you mandated to not use any form of transportation? Based what what I saw, recreational walking increased during lockdown.

I didn't realize that you were coming at it from a review angle, I was thinking of the "turn left at Subway" sort of advertising in Google Maps. I'm not trying to imply anything, I just personally use two ad free map ser

How do Kagi and Apple Maps factor in to your "can't pay for google maps without ads" assessment?

All binary operations can be reduced down to NAND gates, so in a sense all your computer does is that one operation given a variety of inputs.

I don't think the public is quite that cynical, broadly. Certainly most people consider some non-profits to be scams, and some (few, I'd reckon) consider most to be scams. But I think most people have a positive association with n

Kicad, by a mile. I use Allegro professionally and would drop it for Kicad in a heartbeat if I could convince my employer to make the switch.

I've started using this approach to combat spam that ignores unsubscribe attempts: 1. Report each and every offending email to the FTC: https://reportfraud.ftc.gov/#/ 2. Forward the "report received" ema

I'm not sure how that applies here - the trip home from a travel destination will be a similar distance whether driven or flown.

Mario Kart 64 was released between Dec '96 and June '97 (depending on region) so either you were very quick to create the MIDI version or the dates you remember are off.

I suspect that existing designs are built using them to avoid designing something new.

In my area taxis had credit card machines, but it was common for them to "not work" so the cabbie could fleece you for extra money driving you to an ATM on the way. And then they'd refuse to give change so you'd have to

I've always used that button to "like" songs and used the "Add To Playlist" item under the ellipses menu to add things to a particular playlist. What was your process like before the change, and what is it now?

Why do you think there's little hope on increasing production?

Additionally, there's also a benefit to standardization. Adding different pin styles makes the part harder to design and manufacture.

That equations needs to weigh how valuable it would be to tell your side of the story in an NYT interview compared to having no comment.

Sure, but the alternative discussed here is handing over the money to people that haven't produced art, mediocre or otherwise. This could hardly be considered more a scam or embezzlement scheme than that system.

by mrWiz 3y ago
I feel like there's an implication that convincing people to make bad/mediocre art was a somehow a letdown, but that seems like a fine outcome to me if it got people to actually make art. Making bad art is inherent in the process

Certainly it's fair to mention it, though. As a person who has never used a Steam Deck, reading about these experiences alongside the positive ones helps paint a fuller picture for me.

In my experience you couldn't assume that a person had a Zip drive. My family didn't have one, but given some effort/motivation I'm sure I could have found a way to read a Zip disk I was given.
