My 2021 Honda CR-V doesn’t get close to EPA MPG but the range calculator is still accurate to within maybe 15%. I’ve tested it a few times driving from Oakland to LA which is right…

This seems like a fair way to split it up and would apply to a broad range of scenarios. I actually lean towards the tool being more opinionated about classifications like these- I…

How do you define difficulty? I’ve seen companies with vastly different opinions on difficulty based on how they’re set up. Can I edit the difficulty based on my own company’s need…

Skateboarding. The mixture of creativity and physical exercise is extremely rewarding and it’s humbling to fall on concrete from time to time.

New Zealand is a long flight but IIRC it’s about a 21 hour time change to California (give or take DST) which only feels like about 3 hours. (Not defending the subject of the artic…

I don't see CSS-in-JS as a rejection of separation of concerns. In fact, one of the big advantages of CSS-in-JS is that it lets you decide how best to separate your concerns. Using…

In the US almost everyone uses SMS. iMessage uses the same app as SMS, changing the message type based on whether the recipient can accept iMessages. So, most iPhone-to-iPhone comm…

The motion reminds me of the “crab scratch,” [1] a DJing technique that uses finger tapping to move the cross fader rapidly in a similar way. I wonder if someone brought the techni…

Interesting. I’m currently working on an “IoT” device and this seems like it could theoretically work. One concern I have is that there’s an initial step where the device creates a…

I think it’s important context that this author recently had her book “Irreversible Damage: The Transgender Craze Seducing our Daughters” blocked from sale at some outlets. You can…

If you’d like to learn more about what the Black Lives Matter organization worked on last year, you can see their 2020 impact report, including some impressive voter turnout result…

I think some context that might be helpful here is that European music theory really has spread throughout the world through colonialism, and is reinforced as the default in many w…

This is a somewhat strange comment for an article that is about someone who didn’t like the music software available to him and wrote his own, just as you described.

This is helpful! As noted in my other comments I’m realizing that the car I’m talking about is a Ford Model A which is completely different- and an indication of how much I have to…

Good tip. I am realizing that the Ford Model A I’m referring to in my post is a totally different. car but I know this advice still stands- my dad had forums he would visit to find…

Thank you for the resource! I’m realizing through these replies that I’m talking about a different (and much more common) Ford Model A- but it looks like he has one of those in his…

I inherited a 1928 model A from my dad last year that he’d had since the early 1970s. I’m looking forward to giving it a drive, but it’s in a garage at the top of a hill and I’m af…

Wondering what kind of database/schema is being used here for the time series data- I have a Raspberry Pi tracking the moisture of the soil of one of my plants and I know I could b…

The big takeaway for me here is that this “provisioning service” had enough internal dependencies that they couldn’t bring up new nodes. Seems like the worst thing possible during …

Here's a police officer taking a selfie with one of the people storming the capitol today. https://twitter.com/bubbaprog/status/1346920198461419520

As a Wesleyan alumn I was very surprised to see it so high, but I think it's likely a scraping error—searching for "Wesleyan University" shows many hits for Ohio Wesleyan, Kentucky…

I love the interface! However, I'm getting "looks down from here" alerts for every URL. oops!

There are some demonstrations on this page: http://zimg.buaa.us/documents/ It feels very fast—has anyone worked with this who can speak to its effectiveness in a production environ…
