Ground speed and airspeed are not the same thing. You need to measure airspeed directly. And I think there are generally 3 pitot tubes on planes.

Yeah. And dams can be removed (and as far as I can tell, nature is relatively adaptable and can recover).

My assumption is that rising CO2 levels in the atmosphere pose a much greater existential threat to humanity than localized ecosystem damage resulting from river blockages. But maybe I'm wrong. Speaking of hydro, I do think pumped hydr

And I also lived two blocks away from Moscone for two years so... ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ I understand that anecdata runs both ways, but the tolerance for bullshit here is too damn high, especially how high rent is.

I used to work near Moscone. I know far too many people who share OPs experience. It's a shit show.

It's an _almost_ drop in replacement - when I tried migrating our tests recently (because of memory leak issues / slowness resulting from Jest + a Node upgrade) I found I had to manually finagle a lot of our mocks to get them work

This is a bit reductionist, as we're talking about vastly different scales of infrastructure here governed by very different institutions with very different expectations imposed upon them by the population. From some admittedly quick

Agree entirely with your assessment. I find Copilot / ChatGPT to have varying degrees of utility, but neither tool ever makes me less productive. To your point, they do generally make me more productive, as they can help me debug &#x2F

Statistically yes. But I can imagine the risk/benefit calculation becomes a bit murkier if you live somewhere rural where you’re effectively “on your own” when it comes to police response time.

For sure. Whenever I drive in the sunset, I'm blown away with how unnecessarily wide all of the streets are, how it encourages drivers to go 30+ when they should be going 20, and how few protected bike lanes exist taking advantage of a

I swear I don't mean this in a snarky way: I don't quite understand how, functionally, interpreting the law is all that different from creating it. Deciding to interpret a law one way or the other (because of the ambiguity of lang

Yep. It's dangerous and it's just not appealing. Even in SF, despite parking being a pain, I've grown to prefer driving places to walking (beyond ~10-15 minutes radius) because: A) Sidewalks are just too damn cramped. Pedestr

I just started using Copilot and so far, it really does seem to save me time with rote stuff like imports, function definitions, and where I would otherwise be copying / pasting code I just wrote (say, while writing a bunch of tests).

Yep. I keep it as accessible as possible and tell all my friends where it is ahead of time to prevent any slowdowns just in case.

The intention is more so for my friends and anyone else around me, but all of that I guess. I see people OD pretty frequently at music festivals, and while there is medical around, minutes matter when it comes to fentanyl overdoses, and it

The problem I'm seeing is that with some regularity, people are being designated as "intolerant" for simply asking questions, deviating slightly from the most up-to-date acceptable opinion, or just not keeping up with what is
