Do without your advertising for a while, or risk selling it with the advertising intact. I just think it's weird to sue a buyer for not removing it when you left it there.

I'm thinking that would decrease the sale or trade-in value :) It also doesn't help all that much with the raised nature of vinyl letters.

Sort of...hand peeling while the paperwork is being signed is pretty late in the process. Doing it right requires a heat gun, or solvents, or a removal wheel, etc.

I understand this is getting off the main point, but... If you don't want your vinyl lettering on the truck to be the new owner's choice...uh, remove it yourself before selling it?

There's no automatic connection from immoral to illegal. I can think of lots of intentional deception that secures unfair gain that is not illegal.

Spirit runs with a 28 inch seat pitch, which is often physically shorter than the distance between someone's rear end and knee caps[1]. It's an unusual choice. Most other low cost carriers have 31 inches or more. I'm not sur

Your fuel gauge example makes sense to me. The speedometer, though...a flat number wouldn't convey much about acceleration or deceleration. I'm pretty sure your brain processes the sweep speed (along with lots of other inputs) a

I imagine part of it is also that a lot of the code isn't the science part. It's all the setup, things like parsing data for input or output. Languages like Python and Perl have very rich standard library stuff for massaging str

It would be interesting to know the rough amount of cumulative wasted joules on both the computer side and humans doing the extra clicks this cookie banner nonsense adds up to. Unintended consequences of laws.

I don't think the 1980's loonies were steel, they appear to have been mostly nickel. I suspect though, that some detail of the various ways he did this just got lost over time. You could probably fish them out with superglue or s

You can also unbuffer stdout in a wrapper then exec your program. GNU-ish systems, including Linux, usually include a command called stdbuf that does this: stdbuf -i0 -o0 -e0 /some/command Where -i is for stdin, -o is for

That's the path TCL initially took, but they added counted byte strings later when it became a barrier. And zsh appears to support them relatively well.

I wonder if the current refresh cycle for school buses is a barrier for these. Schools are used to keeping a bus in service for 12-15 years or more. And the bus budget is built around that longevity. I don't know if the electric buses

If you're on a budget, a used HP Z-Series workstation supports ECC ram. A bare-bones one is cheap, though the ECC memory can be expensive since it's not the (plentifully available) server type RDIMMs. Not a low-power setup either
