Lol I believe it would be rapid uncontrolled oxidation

Yeah that’s terrible. I have an hour of stand-ups but that’s 4 teams, I’m not an IC on any of them.

socratic method: a method of teaching by question and answer; used by Socrates to elicit truths from his students https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Socratic_method

To be fair, it could have fully driven itself into the train: “fully self driving” <> “fully safe driving” /s

Same here, I was a big fan of Nova until I discovered Niagara about a year ago. It’s a totally different concept from the icon based launchers. I love the minimalist approach to widgets and the self optimizing app list. Tying it in with sesame has led me that product as well and I’m finding the whole solution to be really nice

Christmas is already after New Year’s in the current calendar year ;)

Well they have to be really white though, not like those lazy Spaniards, Italians or Greeks. Should probably leave the Catholics out of it, too, and maybe the Irish for that matter. Do Portuguese count? 🤔 /s

Umm that’s donuts if they’re from Dunkin’ 😜

Yeah, you don’t want toddlers learning gun safety the hard way

When you’re talking about relative change, one degree F is 5/9 of a degree c, so if London cools by 18F that would be 10c.

I’m not sure where that number came from but according to Wikipedia the conversion from momentum to electricity loses 10-20% and the conversion from electricity to battery storage is another 10-20% leaving a theoretical recovery at 60-70%. In real world tests, Teslas recovered 20-32% range with regenerative braking, a far cry from 2-5% you cite. https://electrek.co/2018/04/24/regenerative-braking-how-it-works/

Idle losses are real but not very substantial in a modern engine compared to the bigger factor you’re missing which is that in city driving tests there is a lot of speeding up and slowing down, ICE vehicles throw away all the energy used to slow down as heat in the brakes which makes city cycles particularly inefficient while an EV captures that energy through regenerative braking, dramatically reducing the net cost of those momentum changes.

It’s the New York Post, temperature would be a chilly 45F for their American audience

Funny I unintentionally searched kagi with the keywords in the wrong order - and got it in the first result

I was gonna say this is a sad day, but that’s just nostalgia for a time that’s passed. I grew up reading and loving Popular Science, my dad always has a subscription and I would read it cover to cover usually the day it came in the mail. I let my own print subscription lapse years ago, tried a few different versions of digital magazines (anyone remember zinio?), but today it’s just websites like arstechnica and the verge that have become the focus.

I still value the articles I come across online but the print edition is just a warm memory at this point to me so I can’t expect them to keep a business going on that.

It may be a different technical skill than any of the hundreds of other ways to make art, but it still takes a human to conceive of a concept and skill to write a prompt that will generate the intended nuances and ideas.

Just because I can take a photo with one click on my phone doesn’t make it art any more than if I try withs a professional camera in manual mode. The art is in using the tools to create something new and beautiful in any medium.

Well I feel like I acquired both a new point of view and a chuckle with this one, so thank you Internet friend 😌

Observing and learning from the natural world is in no way dumb, it is extreme hubris to think we humans are so smart that we don’t have to listen to nature. Or that society gets to be somehow outside of nature. It is that kind of logic that got us global warming, obesity & diabetes epidemic, big pharma, and loss of traditional knowledge and wisdom. If I see a momma holding her cub by the nape of the neck my first thought isn’t going to be that I know better how to care for her young.

I’ve found myself defaulting to liftoff lately and not regretting it, but threads like these remind me to not get complacent! I found jerboa tough to get started with but decent after configuration was done. I like wefwef as well.

Fwiw I was a Boost user on Reddit
