...Even so, 85 to 90 percent of toxic vehicle emissions in traffic come from tire wear and other non-tailpipe sources,...

So electric cars will mitigate only 10-15% of the environmental problems of the ICE cars?

I'm going to go out on a limb here and assume that lab tests for other bacteria need to be cultured as well, such as staph, which he did request labs for. Again, I'm not saying penicillin wasn't appropriate because I'm not a doctor. However, he continued to test everything but the one thing I asked him to, which it turned out I had. As I also said in another comment, he told me to continue using the high doses of penicillin (500mg IIRC) throughout him being convinced I had something viral, then an STD, and then HIV without ever changing the dosage and despite my condition getting progressively worse. There's multiple things I blame him for, the most upsetting being the statement-of-fact that I had HIV when I didn't. I also don't believe he was fired for no reason.

I have a laugh every time I see their "Recently Added Movies on Prime" section and find films from 2007. Or their "Popular|Trending Movies on on Prime" and see films with a <5 score on IMDB. There is no reason I would keep Prime for its movie offering! In the last six months they've added more and more sponsored offerings too, which is _really_ annoying -- I mean, I'm a subscriber, stop advertising to me.

Interestingly, working with low-voltage, high-current power supply has an uncommon danger: it won't kill you by giving an electric shock, but you may suffer from serious injury due to joule heating.

What has struck me a few times with the videos from fighter jets is that the UFO does not seem to move relative to the camera, that is, it's stuck in the middle or something. Which of course to me implies it's a speck or something on the camera.

(I'm not a photographer though. I did read that e.g. scratches on a camera lens don't really have a noticeable effect on the final picture as well)
I think the advent of movie theaters killed it. With today's special effects you can see trains or boats or spaceships crashing into each other in close up for a reasonable price. It's not "real" of course, but probably fills the need.

Today, San Francisco only has trains along Market Street, fingering out into a half dozen neighborhoods. Most of the city is served by buses. Originally, many of those buses were, in fact, trains:

> ...as SF's rail network was removed or replaced with bus lines in the mid-century, it went from 16 rail lines to five...

The reason we still have the trains we do is because they were the lines that used tunnels, so they couldn't easily be replaced by buses.

The World's Fair, which also brought us the Palace of Fine Arts, spurred the construction of many of those train routes. You used to be able to get to the Presidio by train! Imagine if, instead of spending effort digging up the tracks to replace them with buses, they buried the tracks and built an actual metro system: you could get around the city without a vehicle.

It seems the usually happen out at sea so it would make sense there's no ground based sensors or satellites watching a random spot in the ocean. As for the camera fuzziness, I can't help but think how it would look if I saw something and tried to record it. I have a decent camera on my phone, but if there's something in the sky it's going to be far away and my natural reaction would be to increase my zoom. Anybody that has ever done this knows that it gets extremely fuzzy. As for cameras on jets, I would thin that if the are any good high resolution cameras that they would be face down to capture the ground.
I am very uncomfortable pricing the poor out of things. That's the fundamental issue with sin taxes like this.
I haven't used a conventional laundry machine in about a year. The way I clean things, everything looks brand new, the microplastics are captured, and stuff is smelling good.

At first, I just used a 5 gallon bucket from Home Depot, put some clothes in there, hot water, added All Free & Clear + Clorox2 Stain Remover and Color Booster, then shook about 100 times.

More recently I use one of those hand-crank-turned contraptions* that rotates on a stand (multiple are available from Amazon).

> But most importantly - never, ever, tumble dry.

When its time to dry things, I just hang them up on a drying rack and let them drip into a caserole pan.

When the dripping is done (roughly 45 minutes) I re-arrange them for best ventilation and point a small fan towards them, almost everything is dry within 2 hours.

You can use a GuppyFriend micropastic bag to catch the microplastics.

What got me wondering the most is that the dyes often come out of the fabrics, When you hand wash things its a bit more obvious. I wonder what their eventual fate is.

>Honestly this is a pretty naive view of management. The moral solution is to do what's best for the team. It's also not ethical to keep someone due to their demographics.

Not saying use their demographics as a metric to keep them. I'm using that as an empathetic example of the potential damage you are inflicting when you let someone go. Obviously that blew right over your head as if you're some psychopathic robot.

>Game theory plays a huge role in successful operations. Even from a ethical perspective, it's bad to make everyone suffer (or lose their jobs) just to save one poorly performing person.

Who the heck calls management a process out of game theory? Sure let one person go to save others but this is not the case I'm talking about nor was it the case you were talking about previously. We were talking about efficiency. Letting someone go for efficiency reasons without giving him a chance to improve is not ethical at all. You should note that people of your rank often don't play fair. They let people go if they perceive a threat to their rank or if they have personal problems with an employee. Measures must be put in place to protect employee livelihood from gross misuse of power.

Additionally in most cases keeping an underperformer does not actually harm the team. they're salaries don't change whether you fire or keep the underperformer. The only thing that changes is your budget. Of course as I said before if your company is doing so poorly that you have to lay people off, do it, but until then they all deserve a shot at improvement.

Part of me would like to do that. But part of me is also very consciously aware I'm terrible at self-managing / motivating, and that the indie game development market is flooded by people and games that are a lot more creative than the ones I could come up with who still aren't able to make ends meet years down the line.

But maybe I'm just cynical and afraid to get out of my comfort zone.
I worked for FT 1996-2000, so before these events. One point worth keeping in mind is they had a surge of hiring in the 70s when the French government invested massively in digitizing the phone network after decades of neglect. Trying to retrain them into the new jobs required for the Internet era was always going to be a struggle.

This is misleading.

If you follow the link to the actual research paper you find that it's 90% of PM10 and 85% of PM2.5

That is, not "emissions" in general but particle matter specifically.

This makes sense because modern cars have efficient engines and particle filters so that few particles are emitted from the combustion engine itself. The remaining sources are the tyres and the brakes.

I second the motion, but the $300AUD for a Shield vs $60AUD for a Chromecast means I understand why some people don't.

But seriously, the Shield was worth every cent for ease of use, everything in one place etc etc. The only reason I sometimes chromecast is to play video back at faster than normal speed. (Or because the Netflix app on Shield thinks that I really want it to start playing videos with sound as soon as I pause on any title for a second).

You can make it time efficient, but not fuel efficient.

Client-Side AuthZ vs. Server-Side AuthZ
I had severely dry skin and eczema to the point where my bedsheets were often covered with bloody spots because I was constantly scratching while asleep...

What worked for me eventually was not bathing/showering regularly. I started showering at most 1-3 times a week but only with water, no soap, except on the pubic areas for hygienic reasons. Might sound disgusting, but it turns out that daily showering, especially with detergents, can harm your skin by upsetting its microbiome.

I still have drier skin than other people, especially in winter, but my eczema have pretty much disappeared.

However, if my eczema would return, I would definitely try out bleach washes: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sodium_hypochlorite_washes

The studies endorsing dilute bleach baths came out well after my eczema resolved, so I have no first-hand experience with it, but it sounds cheaper and safer than corticosteroids.

The academic part would be interesting. The time of operation matters less, as if there is a fundamental flaw, it would go in flames over night. Anecdotally that point was demonstrated by a 50%+1 attack on one of PoW clones, which worked fine until someone actually bothered to make it happen.

I still don't think your comment on ETH and scams is either objective, or relevant to a technical discussion.

As for smart contracts - Turing completeness is a substantial difference from the development point of view. The idea of gas seems to be novel. The fact, that people made mistakes in the contracts themselves only shows their incompetence in developing serious contracts. It has nothing to do with the platform.

The cultural change in reducing the frequency of this pastime, is that trains today are considered much less cool than they once were, so contemporary America crashes other things into things for fun instead. The current fashion is large navy vessels, apparently.

From the research paper cited by the article:

PM2.5 emissions were only 1-3% lower for EVs compared to modern ICEVs. Therefore, it could be concluded that the increased popularity of electric vehicles will likely not have a great effect on PM levels. Non-exhaust emissions already account for over 90% of PM10 and 85% of PM2.5 emissions from traffic. These proportions will continue to increase as exhaust standards improve and average vehicle weight increases. Future policy should consequently focus on setting standards for non-exhaust emissions and encouraging weight reduction of all vehicles to significantly reduce PM emissions from traffic.

You mean 12 volts at ~unlimited amps supply ran through my body may heat me up from the inside? Isn't the human body resistance too high for that, even if you go below the skin on both ends? At 10 ohm it would be just ~15 watts, hardly dangerous given that human bodies at rest produce ~100 watts of heat.

Edit: fixed numbers.
I've always assumed that piezoelectricity would occur in the crust before and during an earthquake given the prevalence of quartz - it's my go to theory for the now undeniable sightings of earthquake lights.
True. And with RPi4 having a 1000baseT, it’s not as painful as it seems. Perhaps even the driver can be coaxed into some form of DMA and MPI that is a bit lower latency than IP stack.

With secondary IP layer on 802.11, it might actually work reasonably well.
Of course, whole another level of using ASCII art is to make it executable, as done by a good friend of mine: Stack Trace Art (https://github.com/ironcev/stack-trace-art).

On that auto-immune topic, this reminds me of the Hygiene hypothesis which basically assert immune issues as a result of too much cleanliness (over simplified version).

"The hygiene hypothesis states that early childhood exposure to particular microorganisms protects against diseases by contributing to the development of the immune system. In particular, a lack of exposure is thought to lead to defects in the establishment of immune tolerance." [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hygiene_hypothesis]
