An increased resting heart rate can be caused by many things, and we have no false negative/positive rate for increased heart rate wrt this virus. Whilst the intention is good, thi…

You are misunderstanding my point - I'm saying that because the majority of cyclists are adults, who got into cycling after they turned 18, the majority of them have learned to dri…

> Most of them don't even hold a driving license This is absolutely not true in the UK, and probably not in most major cities. The overwhelming proportion of cyclists here are adul…

Here's a thought, try reading the article.

Seconding this: PureData is very good - used it throughout my second and third years of university to create soundscapes and scores. A little DSP knowledge is required to get reall…

> In any case, that was just an example, I am not doing Germany - Portugal by train, unless forced to do so. It is more than 24h. That's the point, we need to expand the rail netwo…

Hooray, now you can get pro-Tory bias no matter where you are!

A badly written, rambling article that seems to provide no insight and declares Docker dead because k8s is the flavour of the month. I felt stupider the longer I read on.

We should feel guilty. Especially for any flights that are frivolous. We should also feel guilty for our excessive meat consumption, our excessive usage of cars, and for all forms …
