Playing the game of nines, 99.9995% uptime, on-call rotations, and retaining all those certifications requires a lot of excess capacity. They're filling space until shit hits the f…

ICE does not have jurisdiction to enforce traffic laws, she was not detained. The agents were harassing her, hoping she’d give them justification to execute her in broad daylight.

You needed to have configured it on Mac/iOS though.

Not in a HCoL area, quite the opposite in fact. Rural Maine. Heat pumps are still a luxury product here that you only see on new homes or well financed gut remodels, which I think …

The $20k quote was for two ductless units, with two heads each, which would just cover the bedrooms in my home. Quite the racket here in the US. They’re still a luxury product.

For me it helped with the ROI because I couldn't go any larger than a 6kw array due to roof shape/exposure. Only roof mounted solar is permitted in my community :/ So a ductless sa…

True. We have natural gas and an existing steam radiator setup though, for the two months a year window heat pumps can't keep up. The upfront investment alone would heat my house f…

Maybe I have scar tissue from COVID prices but $20k to install a ductless heat pump vs. a $200 to throw a window A/C in or $700 for a portable heat pump. While I get that these hea…

Oh no, some billionaires will need smaller yachts.

From what I heard most countries don’t allow this chemical to be transported, only produced on site with much safer to transport precursors.

Then they charge $30 to reject the transaction, another $30 when you go "odd and try to swipe again", then extra money because you didn't have the $30 to cover the fee in your acco…

Not rare. Happens every 12 months or so in my experience as a library maintainer. It really sucks that Typescript, let alone .d.ts files produced by the compiler, don’t follow anyt…

Go to the bulb settings itself, "power on behavior".

https://observablehq.com/@awoodruff/daylight-saving-time-gri... Nifty tool that takes in your preferences and tells you what will lead to the most optimal days.

Are you proposing a standard solar time? Which shifts every day? There’s no such thing. Standard time is just as arbitrary. I’m not a morning person and am much further east than t…

Modern cities burning.

Not at Google. When you go remote you're paid based the same as if you were onsite at the nearest office to your residence, limits are roughly CSA (combined statistical area) in th…

Sure COVID-19 will be endemic, can't put the genie back in the bottle now, but that doesn't mean we can't and shouldn't be trying to end the pandemic: r0 Maybe millions dead, count…

In several states it was a criminal charge that could see you fined and/or imprisoned. Having a criminal record bars you from employment and commerce opportunities no? I know weari…

Smallpox no? I mean it was criminal to not be vaccinated in many places and upheld by courts. Seems a stronger mandate to me.

I pay $700/mn for 200/200mbs fiber, in an rural area where 10/1mbs DSL is the only other option. Seems like it’s competitive to me.

Much more likely side-effects of COVID infection, no?

"Most religions emphasize humility" for real? You read the same history books as I have? I think you're conflating theology with religion. Religion is a blood soaked tool to contro…

Nah fuck CMP. You know what’s also bad for the environment, hundreds of thousands of Mainers powering their homes with diesel/propane generators for weeks every year because CMP an…
