Edit: making clearer, including text from the law. You inadvertently highlight one of the main issues with the GDPR: unclear guidance. From the "Does the GDPR apply to companies outside of the EU?" page at gdpr.eu: "If your o

Bluesky also has a followers feed like Mastodon. I use that one sometimes, but it's easy to toggle over to one of the algorithmic feeds as well. Sort of best of both. Worth noting that some algorithms can be done client-side, but it ma

I tried Mastodon before Threads & Bluesky, and I can say that the lack of algo was the part I liked the least. I tend to follow a lot of people, and like to see a mix of their posts. But on Mastodon, what I got instead was "who is

I'm reading this differently than you are: "No violation exists unless any part of the car is over the stopping line when the light turns red." But I'm not a lawyer and this is interpreting an interpretation.

Yes, you are correct. That's why I specifically did not address the car's entry into the intersection. Given the red light, is the car in a legal position in the freeze frame?

The way I learned this was "in legal, out legal," meaning that you are not allowed to be driving in the intersection while the light is red (aka you have to be finished transiting by the time the light changes). Is this not the la

Could you say more about that? I have been using pry, and it appears to still be updated. Is there a reason to stop using pry, or are you expressing a preference for the official debug gem? Thanks!

Awesome. Since you're here, could you share pricing? I know it may vary, but since you are offering to bring on Bench customers perhaps you could share pricing for similar service as Bench's offerings?
