The original point was about the evils of traditional religious societies and brain washing. Religion is a convenient way to kill people, and a way to brain wash the masses. Of course it is both easier and harder than the meme religion is b

This reminds me how much I love tcpdump it is one of the best domain specific languages I have seen on the command line. Having "and port 53" do the right thing is beautiful also without quotes.

Indeed and it is perfectly fine to cycle there it just roots and rocks over the path. That said it is almost impossible to use the routes near Stockholm during summer.

Commuting by bicycle is time efficient though, since you will do exercise instead. It also makes other training more efficient since your base fitness goes up.

Good walking paths are always faster by bicycle. There is a 1000 km path through the woods of Stockholm it is not ment for cycling but I can still go at least 3x times the distance with no extra energy. This is with a normal bike.

Honestly once a year is a good measurement. You want numbers on people who might bicycle. Doing it seldom means there is a chance you will start doing it. My feeling is that bicyclists are one of the most misunderstood groups just because w

Money vs. Time. If you need too much money to even be able to socialize that only leads to misery. The best way to socialize is to do projects on your free time with other people, there will always be some who are too tired to work much in

We usually implement queueing on the route to those specific things that are vulnarable. If you can not discern what traffic does what, you just need move the rate limiter close to the application or the problem hot spot. It's perfect

I do not understand how supporting Ukraine can lead to more suffering, there is a long history of implerialism causing suffering so there is a rather large opposition against it in the west. What Russia does to Ukraine is pretty gruesome, i

You can use a preshared dictionary with bzip2 and zstd so you can get that down alot by using different dictionaries depending on certain rules. I dont know if it helps with literature but I had great success in sending databases with free

80% of freight is done by rail in Sweden I know nothing about logistics so this is just first hit on Google, I do not make the point to contradict you. I think the issue here is how you split up the big numbers into managable percentages fo

The step from simple simplification to automatic generalizations is not trivial, the map agency in Sweden just recently began publishing map updates for different scales using their own automatic generalization rules. I'm guessing they

Couldn't find any description on how you made that, it is a beautiful map. There are things about Tiny World Maps as well, but they do not have a good description on how it's made either. From my own experience on a country scale

While true that Yahoo and then Bing has been important there are many other free sources of satellite imagery now days. OSM did not have access to imagery for quite a few years, so it possible without them, and also quite a lot more fun.

I know it is important that bicycle infrastructure feels safe otherwise people will not start biking. From my own experience safety is usually not a problem, bakfiets are visible in traffic and the kids are obvious in most cargobikes. My po

Fast search days that Tata Tiago which is in that price range can charge at 18kW, still charging at 3kW-7kW should be doable and enough at most destinations.

I only have anecdata but the three kids I know of all have some kind of diagnosis making it hard for them in school. From my recollection it was more or less the same in my days just that the kids went to school and wasted their time. Some

Since work on central ID in Europe moves slowly banks will only need to bother with local name rules atm since only local names are valid. I am guessing we will have normalization rules in the end and that looks completely unplausible.

Beware of toxic definitions of squandering your life. Even successful people let failures define them and get depressed. Set acheivable goals and celebrate those, trying to do hard things is a constant struggle and is mostly failures for me
