Bicycle helmets are not designed for "30mph" "hits". They are designed for exactly the same sort of situation that you experience when falling in the shower or falling downstairs or off a step-ladder:

2 meter drops that achieve about 14 miles per hour (22.5 kph) on the flat anvil. In Europe the drop height is only 1.5 meters. Why so low, when bicyclists frequently exceed 14 mph in forward speed?

The typical road or trail bike crash involves a drop to pavement. The important energy in that crash is supplied by gravity, not by forward speed. Although forward speed can contribute some additional energy, the main force is the attraction of gravity, and the impact severity is determined by the height of your head above the pavement when the fall begins. It is gravity that determines how fast your helmet closes with the pavement. Some of the crash energy is often "scrubbed off" by hitting first with other body parts. The typical bicycle crash impact occurs at a force level equating to about 1 meter (3 feet) of drop, or a falling speed of 10 MPH. The rider's forward speed before the crash may be considerably higher than that, but the speed of the head closing with the ground, plus a component of the forward speed, less any energy "scrubbed off" in other ways, normally average out at about 10 MPH.

So bike helmets are tested with a 2 meter (6.56 feet) drop. Motorcycle helmets are tested at 3 meters, about 17 mph. A really good bicycle helmet can handle

The (now foolishly down-voted) comment that you are replying to is exactly right that a bicycle helmet would mitigate the shower scenario injuries.
How is being near the 405 relevant?

I used to commute from Santa Monica to El Segundo. 405 was hell. My bike down Venice Beach, Dockweiler, etc. was absolutely amazing. Saw dolphins jumping out of the water for a long stretch of jetty once; bonfires, a tv show (Willard I think?) being filmed, drum circles, etc. The only crappy part was the cars, and getting hit by them. Rib still hurts some mornings from a side swipe, and on one of the few times I took Lincoln I very, very nearly died when someone didn't see me until literally the last second, slammed on their brakes, and screeched to a halt 1 inch from my rear tire.

Point being that smaller vehicles, like bikes, make perfect sense if you build for them.

We recently published a buyer's guide - https://www.loggly.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/07/1907_loggl...

You can think of this as a checklist for building your
strategy and choosing a vendor.

There's lots of good stuff here as well - https://www.loggly.com/ultimate-guide/ that's not specific to Loggly but contains a ton of information about logging in general.
From what I’ve seen most cars that support one support the other. It seems to be rare for a car to only support one of the two. Must be easy to implement both of you do one of them.
When one is underage, it is easier to get illegal drugs than legal ones. The legality makes different sorts of barriers and different sorts of penalties for selling to a minor. I'm not sure it mattered if you were (are) selling pot to a 18 year old rather than a 30 year old - you were still selling pot. You would get in trouble for giving an 18 year old alcohol, though, but not the 30 year old. And a bunch of things like this.
I recently had a data-only sim card. It was meant to go in a router, but it worked in the phone too, except you couldn't get any calls. For me, this was a huge plus. It's not available in my current country though.

My current phone (cheap Samsung A3 from 2015) has Call Rejection in call settings, and can reject all or use a blacklist. No whitelist though.

I recently tried to disable my voicemail, too. But the only option available is to disable "forward to voicemail" so it just ends up ringing forever, and if my phone's in airplane mode, it just goes directly to voicemail. There is no escape!
I sort of agree, but also can't. A car should be good at driving, that's its job. It does something very different from a phone. However, we rarely use cars just to drive. We use them to get places. Especially in cities, that process can be boring.

Phones are very good at offering music, news, and other things that we generally use to fill boredom. I want that option available when I've been in mostly stopped traffic for the last 15+ minutes.

Can it be done without AA/CarPlay? Sure. But it's much more convenient to have the full integration.

I wouldn't accuse these neighborhood stores of price gouging as much as I'd just say they are pricing high enough to cover the much more expensive cost of leasing or owning the commercial space.
When do you build a digital assistant/agent that works on a similar model.

I would even volunteer some data for off machine I could choose which data goes. Aka speech data for training an agent.
Seems to me that the article does not get the reason why people move to big cities:

> So what do we achieve by building new highways and speeding up travel? We don't actually shorten people's trips; we just enable them to live and work farther away from each other.

If people can live and work farther away while keeping travel time the same, then they have more opportunities for work and leisure in their reachable distance. That is major advantage of living in a big city compared to a small town.
That is very concerning.

Here's an article written at the time:
https://www.washingtonpost.com/graphics/2017/national/hurric...

"Forecasting models predicted the storm’s path with relative accuracy."
As much as its in-vogue thing to push for higher density living some of us dread living close to each other like the plague, for very well founded reasons that have been proven right over and over again.

Our population density (in the United States) is very high as it is in, most metropolitan regions. I'm sure there are perfectly valid reasons for some to want to live in close quarters to one another. But it isn't for everyone given the intense polarization of the American public off late, around even issues that were unchallenged only a few years ago. Unfortunately, there is no end in sight for this development. It's better for everyone to choose to live as they see fit for their safety & security. (Tim Ferriss even cites risk of terrorism for him leaving the Bay area entirely! [1])

Fully autonomous zero-waste cars should be welcomed and not shunned.

So instead of complaining about a company should provide health benefits, complain about the government.
This Washington Post article says that teen drug use is down in Colorado after they passed marijuana legalization: https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/wonk/wp/2017/12/11/follo.... I think it's due to the reasons that others have mentioned - that minors can't buy it illegally from stores and the drug dealers they used to buy from are now irrelevant.
This is precisely what happens in cities.

Not in my experience, but I'm sure it varies with location and how "functional" the city is. But on the whole, for me big metros have had much better selection and decent prices on the whole.

It's true that won't always be at the small place literally on your own corner. And some of those places bump prices a fair bit in exchange for being open at most hours. But a little searching and you will find many gems.

You can't really get the costco/wallmart experience easily in city cores, but I don't really want it so no loss there (for me). If you want one-stop shopping you are going against the grain, really.
Brave is a scam, with user funds being seized and converted into other currencies against their will. By issuing their own token instead of just using Bitcoin, they re-implement the same central banking system which the technology is designed to replace.
They oppressed everything else; why would "masculinity" be any different?
TLDR?

"All six species of sloths live in tropical forests. It’s a hot and humid environment that means some of the normal advantages of an endothermic system aren’t really required – the environment’s already warm, so you don’t have to expend an enormous amount of energy to keep your muscles and cardiovascular system warm. So sloths don’t."
The Periodic Table of Elements Issue
That's true, as a superset it reserved words that had not been reserved before... still think it's a stretch to call it a different language though.
I can also suggest a game-theoretic take on real love:

Let U be your utility function
Let U' be your partner's utility function
Let U and U' be normalised against the same scale

A love is real iff

* U is defined in terms of U': U = C(U')

* and for any positive change e' there is a e >= e' such that U + e = C(U' + e').

Disclaimer: no guru, I know formulations are sloppy, but you get the idea :)
The general problem that the article raises is still valid even though the pictures don’t match.

The article is pointing out that the increasing circle sizes represent variation of centerline paths, not the actual size of the hurricane (which is a common misconception). Just because the plots don’t match doesn’t make the article irrelevant.
This is an under-appreciated thing about Teslas: they are as competent at the software as a tech company, so this crap doesn’t happen. Your five year old vehicle is almost as good as a new one, hardware permitting.
Exactly. Giving more people more access to economic opportunity is, imho, a moral imperative.

Congestion will never be "solved". Because the commute time people are willing to tolerate is, as the article demonstrates, roughly constant. Adding lanes doesn't decrease congestion. But it doesn't increase throughput. Which means more people have more access to good jobs.
Last year I got a rental with CarPlay. It was the first time I had a system in a rental that didn’t seem more intent on downloading my contacts than on displaying nav info or playing music.

It appears to just set anything positioned as fixed to being normal instead.

Which should be most popups/cookie notifications. Might break certain websites that try to be clever or "artsy" but as a bookmarklet it shouldn't cause any issues.
Also, drafting. With human drivers it's not feasible to have cars travel 6 inches behind each other, because human reaction time is shitty enough that everybody would crash. With computer control you could easily have cars match speeds, then slowly get closer until they latch together and form a train. This'd both dramatically increase the carrying capacity of roads (with the default 1-car-length-per-10mph-of-speed rule, 7/8 of a highway is empty space), and it would improve fuel economy by reducing cross-sectional area and wind resistance.
Optimism I believe does have a very positive effect on both productivity of the people and how much they love working in a place. But in my experience overdoing it might make your employees start developing this "This does not make sense at all, why are these people living in dreams?" mindset.
From chats I had, I could feel some of my colleagues also had a hesitation towards the goals etc. It was interesting to see people become frustrated especially if they have been used to being slightly pessimistic and cautious due to their background(title(Finance background), nationality(mostly non-US and UK people) etc.)

Overall very nice article though, I do believe moving fast in hiring is the most yield/effort you can do to hire great people. Best companies I worked for(above one included) moved extremely fast in hiring, worst take 2-3 weeks just to reply to an email let alone scheduling an onsite. Wish decision makers in recruiting knew this.

In iOS 13 they're conceding that this isn't how it's always used - a passenger might hook their phone to CarPlay, or the driver might hand their phone off for someone else to use.

That's releasing early next month. Probably a gold master build at the event on 9/10, with wide release following after that.
That would be like having a 1 mile wide freeway
Disappointed in the comments here. There are NO studies involving psychosis and schizophrenia that factor in weed actually helping (hint: it contains an antipsychotic). Schizophrenia involves a defect in the gene responsible for producing the protein FABP5[1] which delivers our bodies naturally produced cannabinoids (eg, Anandamide and 2AG) to where they're needed[2]. Therefore it is not surprising there is a 'link' between those using cannabis and mental illness: flooding the bloodstream with cannabinoids somewhat makes up for the deficit in endocannabinoid delivery.

Wow what a paragon of truth and levelheaded reason, posting some propaganda article that any dumbass can poke holes in and which every dumbass has poked holes in. I love society now, and all of its earnest regard for public discourse and truth instead of just commies, who think they know whats best for everyone, marketing their worldview at any cost.
Interesting take-away from having watched football-related concussion documentaries.

For a long period of time football players were told that if they wore helmets they were protecting their head. So they were lured into dangerous behaviors. If cycling is a dangerous as playing football (it's not) then bicycle helmets would fulfill the same misleading role as football helmets. As it is cycling is relatively safe and helmets are observed to make no measurable difference in outcomes[1]

Manhattan is basically this taken to the extreme. With different levels of commuter rings.

First level is the subway from New Jersey or Brooklyn/Queens.
Next level is a commuter line like NJ Transit or Metro North.

You can live as far as 90 miles away and have a somewhat reasonable commute, while living in a fairly rural area.

I personally would much rather live in the dense urban core and have easy access to the outskirts, but commuting to Manhattan works for some people.
This has been my experience too. When I had my consulting practice we were very careful on the contracts and always had an attorney review any proposed changes to the MSA or SOW that had any material feel to it. It was not uncommon for startups and enterprises alike to send us things to add to our MSA or ask us to use their contract "for simplicity and speed" but when we would review their suggestions around assignment of IP/inventions it was rare to find one that wasn't overreaching. Most were pretty cool about changing it and I think didn't realize how far reaching their attorneys had made it, and that wasn't their intent. Others I think were fully aware and felt that was their right if we did any work for their company, so we never worked with those teams.

But the high speed of travel is effected by making virtually everything pavement. You're just traveling through nothing (well, asphalt).

Thanks to parking minimums the actual buildings you want to go to are _dwarfed_ by their parking lots.

Also, forcing everything to be so far apart makes it nearly impossible to traverse on foot, serve with public transport, ride a bike to, etc.
Yea amazon support on the phone has always helped me out when there were shipping issues. Even when someone literally just ripped open a package and stole the contents, the lady on the phone at amazon was courteous and helped me out.

With something like inflation over a 10 year period this isn't true. In ten years either it was lower than you thought or it wasn't, and you can make lots of money based on the spread of inflation-protected and non-inflation protected assets.

Yeah, this isnt a minimum wage because they're not even getting paid a wage. They're getting a slice of each customers payment, and if uber really cares about their drivers, they would call for a minimum percentage that drivers receive.
Interesting, I guess Google used the fact that both searches came from the same IP to prioritize the one I wanted[1].

In any case, I just connected to my work PC and did a search from a clean VM there, we don't do anything remotely Raspberry Pi or TensorFlow related there. The link you posted was the first hit at work, but the one I wanted[1] was the third hit.

Yet for DDG the results were the same, no hits. I even tried pressing "more" once, still nothing. I even tried "maker.pro install tensorflow" (without the quotes), and similar result. I tried "maker.pro tensorflow raspberry pi", still not finding it.

Maybe I just need to learn what DDG focuses on in a search string, and I've been trained to what Google weights.

But the reason Google got big was because it was the first search engine where, for 99% of the time, I didn't have to spend several minutes optimizing search terms just to find the right thing.

I don't want to go back to that.

I'm all for letting people live how they want, but suburban planning tends not to account for the true lifetime cost of that mode of living. If we can fix that, then knock yourself out.
It would be great if this also had the cone overlaid on top of it. It is often interesting to read the forecaster's notes along with each of these graphics, as it is fairly common for the "line" to basically just be an average of several models without much expectation for it to be accurate in itself.

This feeds directly back into the decision to delineate Perl6 from Perl with a new name.
They have been fined, banned and kicked out of the countries all around the world because they showed no respect to local laws and customs.
They're just using privacy as a marketing tool, as user behavior can be tracked externally by observing the transactions on the network. Brave makes things objectively worse.
Car software is almost always poor. I'd prefer a car simply have a convenient holder for the phone, which has far better software on it (and is far cheaper than the car computers).
Or..that we need more faith to believe in evolution than to believe in creation
I get your point, but there is another angle here. People have a strong tendency not to trust forecasters, despite relative accuracy. This article implies a lack of accuracy that wasn't actually the case.

It would be incredibly easy to come away from this article with the wrong lessons.
You would think but that does not appear to be the standard. The company merely has make an attempt to separate the two parties and it doesn’t have to be super equitable. Plenty of cases where the victim ends up being punished and the company does not have to pay
I have a 2017 Tacoma and the Entune system is an aggravating, outdated mess. I love how it shows a generic album cover (of missy elliot from the early 2000s) whenever you play any type of hip hop song.

The maps are terrible in general, but their one small redeeming quality is that they work offline. There have been a handful of times where this has been useful when driving out of reception.
Suburban living is essentially what I'm describing here as being the 'bad' middle state that causes the issues.

You have congestion because there are just houses dotted everywhere clustered around the city, making the 'last few miles' hellish. Later, those suburbs become 'urbs'.

I'm saying have urban and rural with a sharp divide. Inside the 'event horizon' of where you'd normally have suburbs, have car parks and dump people on to urban transport that uses space more effectively like trains/buses/etc.
High availability, sure.

By "stability" I think the parent meant interface stability.

For external access I may need to support the same data formats and schemes for years, but it hardly makes sense for you to have that same burden of API stability on internal systems that you could refactor with less effort.
I'm sure we'll start seeing autonomous driving only lanes in a few years.
Actually, Filekit is meant to be integrated into an application, and that application is responsible for delivering JS and handling identities, not the Tanker server.
I think Spotify needs to implement Siri support so I’m not surprised that it doesn’t work on the beta. I’m also excited for this integration because I loathe Apple Music. Spotify is so much better. It’s annoying that Spotify doesn’t work as wel natively. If Apple Music was just a Spotify clone, I’d happily switch to them just for the first party support, but they insist on making it different. Spotify’s interface and music organization is just so much better.
They had this in Montreal back in the day (i.e. the 1960s, when the risk of a head on crash was one you just accepted by driving).

There would be a bunch of lanes undivided from each other and over the lanes would be lights telling you which lanes were open for your direction of travel.

Movable barriers work too but are far more expensive.

A standardized, precise 40-yard dash might be fair. But it is also pretty useless if you are evaluating runners for a 1 mile race, or a marathon.

What percentage of luxury car owners do you think are living beyond their means, versus your actual luxury vehicle owners?

I often wonder about the people who drive late model luxury cars, on the rare occasions I see them in my town. Are they killing it? Or did they buy it on finance to compete with the Jonses?
That announced that it could be used as a second name, but provided no further guidance, so Perl 6 is still used by many thus its problems are still just as present. This proposal would be to actually consistently use Raku as the name of the language.
