Here is a human that drove into wet concrete: https://www.wlwt.com/article/car-drives-through-wet-concrete... I'm sure its not that uncommon just not publicized, people are terrible drivers.

Clearly not the case in the San Joaquin valley, there is massive subsidence and the Kern river and Tulare lake disappeared (notably exception is this year due to exceptional snowfall).

I like the carrot honey from the carrot seed producers. Pretty unique to eastern Oregon as most places have cross-pollination with varieties to grow carrots for seed and the places that grow carrots for carrots don't get flowers so the

Sadly, not that simple, few major issues here, we are exporting extremely low value, high water, crops overseas, like alfalfa. We are also growing these low value, high water crops to feed to animals (which also consume a lot of water). We

I still get invited to random overseas "conferences" vaguely related to work I did. I left academia almost a decade ago, although I still have co-authorship on some recent publications from my old group.

neat, I don't think I have any use for this, just used a few pre-assembled laser galvos for optical coherence tomography but I love the super niche small companies selling hyper-specialized instrumentation.

My issue was that I want it to backup settings and contacts but not photos, it would then backup photos, using all the space and then I'd need to pay, it was difficult to undo that.

The backup seems to always try to backup more stuff to hit that limit forcing you to pay.

I was in college in 2004 and for the engineering department email you had to log into a linux terminal and check your email with Pine. Most students by that time had windows computers with internet at home/dorm, I feel like it was inte

Most papers are so bad its nearly impossible to replicate the synthesis.

Yah, these numbers are only useful in the situation where your desired pay exceeds the maximum but this is infrequent as people post very wide ranges but are unlikely to actually offer the high end of the comp range.

We don't allow ebikes on the road?

by s0rce 3y ago
agreed, subsidize all 2 wheeled city-speed-appropriate transport options!

by s0rce 3y ago
Cars operated by "trained" and registered and regulated people kill more than ebikes.

by s0rce 3y ago
Why not both? Tax cars more, particularly big ones and parking. Subsidize bikes and bike lane projects.

by s0rce 3y ago
I don't really understand comcast or recreation.gov related to direct to consumer subsidies that likely actually create systemic savings on transportation infrastructure greater than the cost of the subsidy. I do think that we should b

That seems insane, can you bribe the property manager $200/mo to not throw away your bike? Regarding running out of battery, my ebike is 99% used for my commute and I just charge at home every 3 days I ride. Works perfectly. Shorter tr

Its safe unless you are riding on very steep long hills. People rode heavy bikes touring before disc brakes existed and didn't die.

Mostly aerodynamics that matter, the weight is a bit of a factor when climbing.

I also just share files on the server side and then use Kodi on an Nvidia Shield as the client for watching tv. Works well. I looked at Jellyfin/Plex but didn't really understand what it would offer, maybe if I had multiple tv&#x2

If you really need air, which I found was basically necessary on hot smoky days without AC, I put a MERV 13 20x20x4" HVAC filter in my window and drew air through it with a box fan. This took out most of the small particles (verified w

Whiskey is only very weakly acidic, likely having no impact compared to neutral unbuffered vodka.
