Regardless of the business/legal reasons, they're also just incredibly complex from a technical perspective. The power requirements, the RF side is black magic, the protocol side isn't easy, etc.

Irrelevant to the point. If the south of Italy is different geologically, the size of Italy vs anything else doesn't matter.

The half and half solution (which IIRC the report suggested) is cut and cover stations with bores between stations. Digging out stations from the inside out is what's really insanely expensive.

This is part of the reason the majority of high rise projects in NYC don't use cranes. It's insane.

It's also the middle of a war zone. Why is it easier to get tomatoes there than the UK? Why can't the UK use its massive GDP advantage to get them?

I've seen that happen when it hit -1 (C). The sensor was an 8 bit unsigned counter so it rolled over... and the BMC thought it was on fire.

that's hilarious. it's essentially a physical vlan. it could be of use for anything that doesn't support vlans directly, and it'd be a lot cheaper than running a switch to do the tagging/untagging.

No but here's the thing: for all of those regulations, the US still has more fire deaths than most of Europe. So they're not working anyway! https://twitter.com/MarketUrbanism/status/160882533241258393...
