In Australia that's either an ultralight tanker, which would cost around $100k USD today but with far lower 550L capacity and a lower throughput pump than a heavy tanker, or it's a command vehicle, and its modern equivalent would

I'm wary of people who are against query builders in addition to ORMs. I don't think it's possible to build complicated search (multiple joins, searching by aggregates, chaining conditions together) without a query builder of

The issue is that you're expecting trucks to go out in conditions like https://youtube.com/watch?v=7IFEiwNMrZ8 , particularly if your volunteer brigade operates in a rural area, and they therefore have to keep crews ali

I think it's fine to be "good at programming" given a specific context. If your neighbour says "Hey, my daughter likes computers and thinks she might want to program them as a career, are you any good at that?" then

I would argue that the line between an SPA and not is blurred. Consider progressive enhancement; or, per the Slack example, pages with content that's updated dynamically but which rely on reloading a whole page for navigation. I would

I think you're using "single-page app as opposed to no or limited JS on the client" while an alternative would be "single-page app as opposed to multi-page app". There's no reason you have to implement somethin

Your example isn't properly gender flipped. That would be "Women will go to great lengths to take revenge on their exes. $2/month just gets you less broke crazies." While the above statement would benefit from adding the

This made me realise that I want Tinder but for arbitrary content and able to be shared via links - photos, restaurants, date and times, or whatever. Create a Google Drive folder for your trip photos, sync it with OAuth, send a link to your

We still say "antipodes", and "gastropods" might count. Not to argue against this, I'm just wondering how many Greek -foot words I can think of.

Per the article, his wife claims that he had time to wave goodbye to her. A man getting dragged by the neck and hitting an MRI machine head-first is going to make all sorts of hand movements that his grieving widow might interpret as wa

I've mostly escaped it by speaking Australian English, which scatters text with little archaisms like "reckon" and prefers an en-dash with spaces around it over an em-dash.

Four things: do meaningful novel work, learn over the course of a long conversation without poisoning its context, handle lies and accidental untruths, and generally be able to onboard itself and begin doing useful work for a business given

This seems like it would ban drawing tablets, musical instruments, and a lot of other things which seem silly to ban.

I see being an advocate for UBI as advocating for solid answers to those questions. I would also point out that there's a difference between a full UBI, a modest partial UBI, and the kind of "basic income" that's not uni

Is it meant to be a diagnostic tool? I would have thought that we'd be more interested in A) helping people with a gait that messed up their feet and tendons, and knowing that this is a comorbidity for ASD, or B) understanding how gait

I used to buy ZenFones, but they're huge now. It feels like there's some combination of poor sales and parts commonality that causes the problem, not a shadowy conspiracy, since I don't think ASUS and other manufacturers have

I don't see how you'd decouple one from the other, given that it's essentially just giving the user their own encryption certificate. Have the EU pass legislation saying that you can't request that the user sign anything

Sqlite is mostly boring but I've found that there's just slightly more risk of something going wrong because of the way it handles locking between threads. It has tended to misbehave under unexpected load and been difficult to fix

In all those cases, you can explain the existing sides and show the available evidence for each. This isn't perfect, but those cases don't show the imperfections clearly enough. You have to look at the details before you find the

If the US government calls it one thing and everyone else calls it another, that's a dispute. I'm Australian. It is called the gulf of Mexico here. I still acknowledge that there is now a naming dispute between the US and basicall

The correct truth is to go to a higher level of abstraction and explain that there's a naming controversy. I get the general point, but I disagree that you have to choose between one of the possibilities instead of explaining what the

I probably stated that the wrong way. I think kids are more prone to overconfidence at any given skill level than adults, and checking in on them helps reduce the risk. It also helps for adults, but we're mostly not responsible for wha
