Are you using ' to denote feet? Most general travel lanes are 10 to 14 feet wide. The 2012 AASHTO Guide for the Development of Bicycle Facilities states that the minimum operating width for a cyclist is 4 feet with a preferred operating width of 5 feet.

A lot of bike lanes, in my experience, are of substandard width and, as a consequence, result in closer passes/overtakes by cars in the adjacent general purpose lane because of the lack of sufficient width in the bike lane and the fact that motorists tend to drift from side to side within their lane during the normal course of driving (especially when the road has a curve).

So, riding in the bike lane actually makes things worse for the cyclist in terms of dealing with overtaking traffic compared to riding in the center of the general purpose lane.
How would you know you even want to look at the code at all if you haven't read the description of the code which is currently below all the code at the bottom of the page?

I need to know what the project is and what it's trying to do before I have any interest in looking at the code.

I've heard such thoughts expressed as "Evolution, not Revolution". You evolve (refactor) your old app into the new one, rewriting parts of it at a time.

Several comments have already expressed that they've rewritten projects successfully. I've also evolved several projects successfully too. One of the benefits of the evolution approach is that when old bugs resurface, they're less likely to show up all at once since you only changed part of the application. Also it should be easy to compare the code with the bug to the previous code without the bug because it mostly similar.

There are times when an application is beyond repair and a rewrite is necessary, but I see those times as the exception rather than the norm.
For an article trying to point out bias it sorely lacks any strong evidence and even includes evidence to contrary. Delusional.

We started something similar with BreachInsider (https://breachinsider.com) to allow businesses (or I guess individuals?) to do this themselves with minimal overhead or resources. The idea being that they sprinkle these ‘users’ throughout their databases and see where they show up, and be alerted if they ever get contacted or show up somewhere unusual (Pastebin etc.)

We ran something similar, firing ‘insiders’ across many of the top 100 sites and services, to spot breaches (either in the traditional sense of security incidents, or lapses in privacy for end users).

It seems like one problem with rust is that it is a single threaded compiler.

We’ve reached the ends of fast CPUs. To gain performance improvements, we need to use multiple cores, and process it in parallel.

I wonder if this is an opportunity for github or Microsoft to host a cloud compiler? Just check in your code to github, and the cloud compiler will compile it across thousands of servers, all running in parallel.

Cost: $100/month per engineer.
Very possible. Waterkloof Heights is a very rich area, the only white people I’ve seen walking besides me were joggers. The black people were all there to work at the mansions.
I just bought two MBR albums. In the simplest terms, I would describe the project as baroque synth metal. It's really in a category of its own though. I don't know how to describe "industrial" really, but the music definitely lacks the brutality associated with most "death metal".

However, MBR earns some major geek cred by probably being the only music project running its own IRC, BBS, gopher, etc.. HTTP is totally worth a visit if just for the pretty CSS: http://mbrserver.com
I had a Mailchimp list on a very specific niche, and a website with the sole purpose of offering the signup. Lots of people signed up. I used double opt-in, lost a few there. Then, every email I sent had the conspicuous unsub link right on the top. Few people unsubscribed. That list had some 20% open rate and 12% click rate IIRC. That was many years ago.

I noticed some correlation: the larger was the time since signup to receiving the first newsletter, the more people were likely to unsubscribe.

I'd say, send those newsletters, or your subscribers may forget about you.
That’s not what this propaganda effort is targeting though. They are targeting those outside the gun community.
I'm being very sincere. It feels out of place here for the masculine example name to be the outgoing FOSS-contributing self-driven one ("ideas people and leaders") and the feminine example name to be the one who is good at showing up on time, keeping her head down, and being told what to do.

I am being flippant, but what the user of the compiler uses it for the vast majority of the time is to get feedback on whether they've missed something. The vast majority of the code in the Rust compiler is dedicated to error reporting. Efficiency of the generated code is important, but it is a well explored space. Emitting good diagnostics is hard and unless you make it a priority it will always be subpar. Communicating with the user to help them get to that generated binary is at least as important, and in my eyes it is more important.

I also consider parsing and syntax to be the least interesting part of any language, as it is also a solved problem that requires little effort (modulo malformed code recovery) in both design and implementation when put in contrast with the rest of the compiler's functions and language design space.
But we're not talking testing negative, are we? We're talking those people showing up in the system (the > 2 week lag in time it takes to change course), or did I miss a level of questioning that threw this off course?
No risk? No fun! Boring...

Seen pragmatically your "protection" in buying such small things, where the transport costs more than the things themselves is denying the seller a good rating, until one item that is functional arrives. AND/OR disputing via whatever payment service, or simply writing it off.
Apps are definitely a train wreck in terms of privacy and security, and it's definitely at least partly the responsibility of Apple and Google for allowing that abusive behaviour at OS/API level in the first place.

Then again, take a look at your desktop/laptop OS, and by comparison mobile devices are almost fortress-like in their protections. We're still using security models based on the threats of several decades ago, with barely any attempt made by any of the major desktop OSes to develop a suitable defence to the biggest threats of 2020.

The real problem here, IMNSHO, is that most users don't take privacy and security seriously, which in turn is at least partly because most users lack even rudimentary understanding of what is happening and what could be done about it. Almost everyone suddenly has a life full of small, somewhat independent devices with significant computing power, sensors, and external connectivity. Even people who choose not to use such devices themselves will still find themselves affected by this technology because so many other people around them do use it, so unless you're willing to become some sort of modern-day hermit, you can't entirely escape the trap.

But until public awareness is increased, until these issues start becoming a matter of real competition and hitting inferior product developers in their quarterly results, until there is enough concern over the more serious abuses for politicians to learn about these issues properly themselves and legislate or regulate accordingly, trying to stay off as many radars as we can is sadly the only realistic strategy. You can avoid installing untrusted software on your computers and putting IoT devices in your home, and that's a significant improvement, but it's still far from ideal.
Hi,

I am Hamed the founder of airtape.

With airtape you can record your podcast or audio session in studio quality directly from your web browser. No installation needed. You get high quality audio while making sure you get separate tracks, without voice interference, drift or quality loss.

Today I'm very proud to announce that it just went live. It's been a joyride since day one. The very first commit was done April 16th, so around 11 weeks ago now.

Today it reached a stable version with support for 16bit 44.1kHz WAVE, MP3 320kbps and MP3 128kpbs. Built in VoIP and many more awesome features which hopefully will make podcaster lives easier.

I want to thank all the beta testers who helped to improve the product. If you want to get a taste let me know here, I'm happy to give away couple 1 month free coupons.

Best, H.
If one hasn't worked in these places, one lacks the perspective to provide an informed criticism. If it helps one recognize a shortcoming in their world-model, I will share that being known to exist grants superior desired proximate results than being left alone.

Where I am a citizen (France) those documents have had a complicated history of being mandatory (for foreigners first, to control them), then since 1955 non-compulsory.
Yet, Police forces can decide to control your identity in public and if you have no means to prove it to them they are allowed to detain you until "verified" (whatever that means)[0].
Of course, not having an ID card or similar document is also preventing you from having access to unemployment services, voting/being voted in, pass exams, being registered at a bank, traveling, etc.[1]

Effectively, some citizenship rights, some entitlements, and to some extent some rights can be set aside due to not having a document that isn't compulsory. Yep..

I meant navigating quickly within headers of the same document. Certainly you can insert links to external documents, but it feels more useful theoretically than practically, as you'd seldom open a document looking for a specific thing, and decide to read the general supporting articles too.

I hoped there might be a previous merged mr adding a gauge, but doesn't look like it.

As best I can tell, you need a new service, a new function/method in the api controller (to publish the data) - then add support in the embedded front-end app Javascript/CSS.

I'm not familiar with springboot, so I'm not sure if there are any generators to help, but it might be along these lines (for the java/rest part) - maybe someone else can chime in?

There's no talent to acquire. Google is in for the patents.

Employment is explicitly not guaranteed at Google, and if so it'll be from their satellite office. And no words on the founders coming onboard at Google which is a sign that they really aren't interested by the company itself.

North shipped about 1'000 units in its lifetime, barely different than the Intel Vaunt, and their V2 was still exclusively CGI rendering on their website with no launch data in sight.
Apollo monitors the clipboard too. For the same reason. To detect reddit links.
Apple tolerates a great deal of apps tracking users. Tracking users is not against the app store's terms of use. Cell phones have been made into data mining devices thanks entirely to Apple and Google. They can stop it, and they choose not to. The stores ought to have a much stronger focus on review and keeping vendors in line and much less focus on wringing money and data out of consumers. Apple spends their time strong-arming developers into adding microtransactions and other anti-consumer features in the name of their already astronomical bottom line.
I completely agree. On my next app, I was forced to use AngularJS (in 2017, somehow), but did get to use TypeScript (which is somewhat hobbled by having to use Angular templates), and this is exactly what we're doing now: rewriting components one-by-one in React. I love refactoring and React is much nicer, so I'm having fun with it :)
Ok, so this is about chatbots. I thought it was about botnets.
If shipbuilding vlogs are such a successful genre of their own, could a crossover with fiction work? I'm imagining a Baroque Cycle serial (what else!) that completely geeks out into workmanship documentary for the equivalent of a season or two, when Minerva is built. Just like the actors in musicals occasionally burst into don't and dance. How else could an adaption stay true to the original?
So, what's the real story? Is it all just trolling?

Having seen parts of the original Names Database code my only objection to DuckDuckGo is that somehow it might have been contagious and infected DDG when Gabriel Weinberg launched the latter. This seems unlikely, but it was the most unfortunate Perl code I've seen in my career. On the other hand it _worked_, so perhaps I shouldn't judge it too harshly.
They barely produced 1'000 units. It would be pretty hard to support these.
Damage compared to what alternative? If I need to go somewhere as an individual, it's quite a bit more efficient to fly vs. driving. An Airbus A319Neo gets 122 mpg per seat. That's almost 5 times the 2017 average gas mileage for American cars. [2]

It’s not legal assuming they do any processing of that data and you’re in the EU. There they need to have a legal basis to do that, the most common of which is consent. Unless you’ve given that they’re not allowed to process personal information, and that includes info they’ve randomly grabbed that they don’t know is personal or not.

I think a big reason people opt to re-write is a lack of desire to understand the problem as a whole and belief that anything overlooked will get fixed in production. I agree we need to be suspicious of these intentions.

Not to brag, but I recently spent a week re-writing some software I developed over 5 years (thanks covid), and it runs 100x faster. No joke. Better code, better SQL, better indexing, less list manipulation. 100x faster.

Taking advantage of this to drop one of my favorite book series (though I'm a few books behind): _Young Wizards_ [0], where wizards exist in-universe to fight entropy, so that the universe can continue to exist as long as possible. The series is possibly best known by the name of the first book, _So You Want to Be a Wizard_, which for a long time I thought was the name of the series.

(Another interesting thing about this series is that magic is treated as a programming language for reality, a few books in going so far as referring to subroutines, variables, and so on)

Should the headline have disclosed every single tie every person associated with each organization has? No that would be absurd - you can’t disclose the nuance of a story in a headline so you disclose the most interesting thing. Nothing in the headline was false or misleading - just because the groups have other ties too doesn’t mean the headline has to list every one of them.
I'm not as optimistic about thinking skills, because manipulation techniques seem to work anyhow. But barring actual evidence of abuse, I think we mostly can only try to get better at countering false or distorted information with more correct information.
Your post is disingenuous. I got the same email and it very clearly lays out that you can opt out of the settings. This was not hidden in some obscure T&C. You can click the opt out link on the email directly and opt out.
I disagree, I think side projects are a sign of being able to put their head down, day in - day out. They have a certain divergent way of thinking that I think might be significantly valuable for companies looking for that type of thinking, especially in a crew of people that don't maintain and assist open source or create their own side-projects. I think this could go either way of course, but it's not a set in stone thing to say side project-people are a 'type.'

I will agree with the balance issue, I do think they can tunnel vision, as I'm guilty of it. On trying to create features they feel they need. WTS, I feel strategic in my cause of prioritizing what me and my users could benefit from.

At this point, I do slightly wonder whether a significant number of people are using the "new" Reddit at all, or whether it's just being kept online as a face-saving exercise. The publicly visible feedback seems to have been overwhelmingly negative and remains so, and I can't remember ever seeing anyone comment anywhere that they actively prefer the new version. I use old Reddit routinely myself. I quite often see advice to use old Reddit, such as the parent comment. I do occasionally see an indication that someone is using the new interface, for example because they used the ``` notation for code on a programming subreddit, but this seems relatively rare compared to encountering criticism or advice to avoid it.
