That’s true for many early OBD-2 cars, but anything reasonably modern (e.g. 2006) correlates signals between upstream and downstream O2 sensors.

Most workarounds you see on the market are patched ECU firmware to fib a scaled second O2 sensor value based on the first, so all of the diagnostic tests keep running.

You’re seeing cars fail smog with these workarounds because states like California have started checking calibration IDs against the manufacturer’s listed values at the time of production.
Sure, whatever, thanks for the valuable and really well argumented input.

I, however, don't know much about the specifics of the case in order to have an opinion about what the DA did. My only opinion is that the new laws are risky, as anyone can claim they were scared for their lives, especially in places where black people are considered 'scary'. I'm not a law expert but I'd be willing to bet that if a black dude ran over a pack of armed proud boys would have resulted in a completely different law. And for anyone asking why I say that, look up the Mulford Act.
I am just a random somebody around your age in previously mediocre but now significantly improved shape since starting kickboxing. One of the most important things I learned is that all that most age related “injuries” and “soreness” etc is counterintuitively almost always caused by _lack_ of exercise rather than being too active. In fact it’s probably impossible to be so active as to outweigh the benefits you’d get, it’s basically entirely a positive feedback loop once you get started. (Note I am not talking about people who have suffered serious physical trauma and need to recover, that is something else entirely—-just more like an average couch potato).
Be fascinating to hear more about how that actually works; or is it a fabrication by police or drug manufacturers? What mechanism of action would a bunch of metal and exhaust particulate possibly have to produce drug-like effects?
I'm thinking of changing jobs and the need for me to do leetcode and answer trivia gotcha questions vexes me.

FWIW, that's how I structure my interviews typically, so they still exist in some places.

For anyone reading along I highly encourage that; there's way more signal to noise hearing about some project they worked on and why they were proud enough to put it on their resume than 'did they remember the algorithmic call/response'. You can't beat an almost post mortem discussion where you let the interviewee lead on what they think went well and what they'd have done differently with hindsight.

Yes. I once wrote a tool which spends a lot of time traversing the filesystem and to my surprise in one scenario most of its time is spent on-CPU (!) in kernel-mode in the readdir_r(2) syscall implementation. I still haven't dived into what it's doing on the CPU, but it sure is interesting.

But then it varies depending on what mood I am in the day I do it.

That is my point - don't label people with "oh typical ENFP response!"/"You are ENFP - this is why you think what you think" It is unhelpful at best, and at worst a slippery-slope way of dismissing people's views and opinions - without extreme care and self-monitoring you risk (consciously or not) making the same snap judgements based on other aspects of people "Oh typical gender/race/religion/age response! This person is X so they alway do/think Y". Dangerous.

First, yes I'm for reintroduction of wolves. However, "In the US: Deer–vehicle collisions lead to about 200 human deaths and $1.1 billion in property damage every year." Really is a poor argument for it.

USA annual number of deaths: 2,854,838.
So, deer kill about .007% of USA population annually. I don't want to downplay the tragedy, but I wouldn't recommend spending a large amount of the budget on this.

If you know that you're working with numbers as big as 15 and 14, you could alternatively use more residues so that you can represent those numbers.

honestly - I don't feel sentence/question has nearly enough detail/context to be answerable comfortable in a Yes/No fashion.

But my comment was not even about reproducibility, though that is important, but another fundamental question: What is the goal?

Yes, many people over hundreds of years have behaved a certain way. But putting aside burden of evidence/reproducibility, whether I want to behave a certain way / same way, to me, hinges on a) What's my goal and b) Have those people obtained that goal?

Random trivial examples: IF my goal is to have a happy family life with a partner and bunch of kids; following people who practiced isolation and asceticism will probably not satisfy that goal, no matter how many of them did it over however many hundreds of years. Insert any number of other trivial or complex goals (leading people, developing a rich and meaningful social life, sending a rocket to the moon, experiencing a lot of different experiences, travelling, seeing the world - whatever ). I find the whole "lots of people did this, so I'll trust their experience" pretty meaningless without stating "what is your goal? What do you consider good? What do you desire?" and then "did those people reach that goal? And what are the aspects of their life that contributed to it?"

(FWIW, I find that is frequently the case on internet forums; with my friends, explicitly or implicitly I understand their perspective/context/goals, so we can discuss politics or history or morals knowing each others assumptions or goals. On the internet, a LOOOOT of discussion is pretty circular because nobody stated their goals; so how can we discuss whether something is good/productive/leading to desired state; or bad/counter-productive/leading to negative state; etc. But that's a much broader concern than what we have here:).
China’s hypersonic weapon test in July included a technological advance that enabled it to fire a missile as it approached its target travelling at least five times the speed of sound — a capability no country has previously demonstrated.
Pentagon scientists were caught off guard by the advance, which allowed the hypersonic glide vehicle, a manoeuvrable spacecraft that can carry a nuclear warhead, to fire a separate missile mid-flight over the South China Sea, according to people familiar with the intelligence.
Experts at Darpa, the Pentagon’s advanced research agency, remain unsure how China overcame the constraints of physics by firing countermeasures from a vehicle travelling at hypersonic speeds, said the people familiar with details of the demonstration.
Military experts have been poring over data related to the test to understand how China mastered the technology. They are also debating the purpose of the projectile, which was fired by the hypersonic vehicle with no obvious target of its own, before plunging into the water.
Some Pentagon experts believe the projectile was an air-to-air missile. Others think it was a countermeasure to destroy missile defence systems so that they could not shoot down the hypersonic weapon during wartime.
Russia and the US have also pursued hypersonic weapons for years, but experts say the firing of countermeasures is the latest evidence that China’s efforts are significantly more advanced than either the Kremlin or the Pentagon.
The White House declined to comment on the countermeasure, but said it remained concerned about the July 27 test, which was first reported by the Financial Times last month.
“This development is concerning to us as it should be to all who seek peace and stability in the region and beyond,” said a spokesperson for the National Security Council. “This also builds on our concern about many military capabilities that the People’s Republic of China continues to pursue.”
The NSC added that the US would “continue to maintain the capabilities to defend and deter against a range of threats” from China.
Now I have to find out how to sell a catalytic converter.

I had mine replaced a few years ago, when I started to get error codes indicating a problem. But I went to a place which put on an aftermarket converter. After a few years, that failed. Wasn't even the right unit for the vehicle.
So I went to a dealer and had a proper OEM unit installed. The dealer wouldn't give me credit back for the aftermarket converter, so now I'm stuck with the converter and pipe assembly, which is too bulky to ship.

Thanks. It's possible the tagline was Thinking like a mountain rather than seeing like a mountain.

I want to say the organization was called Denali but that is now the name of a mountain in Alaska that was formerly known as Mt. McKinley. That change occurred in 2015. So searching for Denali gets me results for that specific mountain and things related to it, not for an environmentally oriented charity.

I am failing to find verification that there ever was such an organization. So I don't know if I am misremembering the name.
Lack of caches I'd assume. Not because it's not easy, but because no one has taken the time to implement it.
>So if a person has unhealthy bevaviour patterns regarding social media consumption, just doing less of that without also actively changing the cognitions that lead to the unhealthy behaviour in the first place won't help much. We do these things because we have a mostly subconsious theory that doing this is good for us. If this actually isn't, than that assumption has to be challenged, and healthy alternatives have to be built up. Just not doing the thing for a while won't replace the assumption.

It's not about replacing the assumption. I don't even think there's much of an assumption (that it's good for us), it's rather the opposite: people actually hate themselves for spending so much time on social media, youtube, etc.

So, it's more about kicking a bad habit, than about trying to change some non-existing assumption that it's a good thing.

A lot of old 90's "hacks" are still commonplace in current email design. Thanks to Outlook's reliance on a brain dead MS Word-based rendering system rather than using actual modern HTML5.

And since Outlook is still the standard for email clients in the workplace, all other systems are impacted as well.

It's interesting to see modern day developers struggle with email design and turn to folks like us :D

Why would they wait to start this until they are ready to get back to the moon? This is going to take many years to design/build, so there is no reason to not start now. Plus its good to keep people innovating/working even if you are a bit away from actually needing the fruits of the labor.

As you have written before, most of us who have worked with environmental issues in the real world, have long tried to 'value ' the environment. Forests, wetlands, waterfronts, etc.
Common scenario, let's say there is a beautiful bay. Many tourists visit to see the view. Condos are built around the bay. Now there is no view. There are no tourists. Water quality in and around the bay degraded.
But when trying to stop the development, the only arguable economic value, is the amount of the taxable value of condo, and 'housing starts' .
There is no present way, (still - after 50 years of talking about this) to place a value on the view, waterfront, water quality, etc.

I've learned to really loathe 'fun' names for projects (especially internal-only projects). it really just obscures whatever the project is intended to do.

AWS is probably the worst in this regard...so many services with names that give no indication about what the service actually does.

Big fan of using DigitalOcean droplets instead of AWS for hosting simple backend APIs. A few perks:

- Fixed pricing, very predictable billing

- No CPU throttling vs. EC2 instances

- Bandwidth included in the cost of the droplet

I've built a few projects with Netlify hosting a React frontend and DigitalOcean running an API server for the backend/database. A single DO droplet can scale far beyond what I've used it for, especially when combined with a SPA that offloads much of the processing to the users' browser.
At least in Berkeley where this kind of theft is common the parts aren't going to scrap dealers, they sell the whole thing to small repair garages. It's basically an evil cycle where the repair garage charges you $5000 or whatever to replace your stolen converter with another stolen converter and the thieves are getting their share.

It is a technical term meaning difference to the average of a certain period of time. In itself such a difference to the average does not imply anything strange is going on. I'm not saying there isn't an anomaly in the sense of common speech, it just seems weird to me to use it in charts that are supposed to show the existence of an anomaly.

Typically not, apparently given the station of most transportees. In Australia the policing was less harsh (at least for those who had served a sentence) and food was more plentiful.

I saw a 19th century photo of a returned transportee and a Londoner and the Londoner appeared scrawny and malnourished.

I’m not trying to make it sound good. Apparently my great great grandfather’s history (such as it is) begins with him as an adult in eastern South Australia (a free colony, no transportation). The best theory is he escaped from Victoria. It must have really sucked for someone to make that journey.

In the early days, the important thing was to be able to distinguish between zero and oh. There was no standard yet established for the best way to do that. At least it was better than typewriters, which didn't have zero or one keys at all - you had to use the upper-case O and lower-case L instead.
