Since you don't actually need very detailed maps -- the hexagons are large, zooming in is pointless -- and your dynamic data is a simple overlay, I think you should be able to use static tiles generated just once. And you should be able to generate the tiles from free OpenStreetMap data, the country outlines & major cities there are plenty good enough for this use, even globally.

Yes, I know it's not as simple to throw together as just using Mapbox.

It's only a jewel because it's valuable.

If you don't like the OP, then simply downvote and move on. Lot's of people in this thread find it valuable and are actually willing to say as much. They are even so gracious as to outline their argument for it's utility, in detail. Maybe you should read what they have to say and engage with that.
Not a full reverse list, just for the ones that tried to reproduce the results. The websites can handle the rest.
Of course there is OSM, but also Sygic navigation provides offline maps for whole world, including India. I believe there are also some other similar companies. I don't think we are all dependent on Google.
Since the time that article was written, several problems have arised/surfaced concerning the restoration project (Le canard enchainé, June 26 2022, p.5):

- Some of the wood used in the foundational carpentry work (tabouret) was found to not meet quality criteria ( not dry enough ).

- An other lead sarcophagus was found on site in June. Georgelin refused to have archeologists extract and/or study it.

- The stacked bungalows used as life quarters for workers do not meet the security criteria and part of them are therefore not allowed to be used.

It should also be noted that Georgelin is willing to do anything in order to meet the 2024 deadline, even if it means botching all the work.

if you don't have a source of known alloy pieces

If you happen to have a high-school or community college nearby with a welding program, it would probably be productive to ask one of the instructors there where they source their practice material. When I was in high-school I think most of ours came from Horton Iron & Metal[1], the local scrap metal recycling firm. Probably many areas have something similar?

> Given that Covid was released upon the world likely due to a lab accident

This is entirely without evidence.

> This in itself has proven to be a source of denial by the very virus experts (like Fauci) that do not want their area of science to be restricted.

Even if you ignore Covid19 -- epidemiologists and virologists have been screaming for years that pandemics are hugely problematic and will become increasingly likely as we densify and further intrude into the urban-wilderness interface. We got extremely lucky that SARS1 wasn't as lethal or infectious as Covid-19. If the work virologists do (even the 'riskiest' work) could lead to new universal coronavirus vaccines or better treatments, it's a much more complicated question on whether to continue the work than ignorant opinions insist.

Just to make this clear to everybody: there are no signs at all that this fire was arson. There are multiple explanations for the cause of the fire involving the construction site and some sort of negligence, which seem highly likely to be true.

> "I like to go to the restaurant chain called Wagamama."

The Wagamama-universe. haha.

I don't know this chain, but your example poses an interesting problem. Is a Caesar salad, add chicken, a new dish? I would argue it's not a new recipe, but a manifestation of how the restaurant caters to patrons' desire. Or, a manifestation of how salads can be minimally altered with grilled chicken to turn a side dish into a main dish for lunch. So maybe there are better, less confusing, tags for restaurants who permit these alterations? `add-meat-optional`. And that's where I find this to be an interesting example.

So now...
You're in your sandbox classifying "important things", you might think to add an `add-meat` tag (or whatever). But what if you're just wasting time with your phone standing in a queue just adding bookmarks in Firefox (does the phone app have tags--i don't know)? So now...you might not recall the rules of your ontology. Instead you're drawn into the _alternate universe_ created by the website's design, or it's branding. Branding intended to tweak your perception and you start adding strange tag combinations, without thinking how this will goof up your search algorithm. Tag salad--haha.
The funds are already there. It's not an additional amount, but just a % of the overall agencies budget.

This is such an armchair take that I hear over and over. Classic rock-paper-scissors thinking.

If a rat were in your living room, you'd not want to go in there. Rats will almost never actually harm you, probably less than a dog. You can easily scare them out. But it's terrifying when one dashes across the room. It's biological/instinctive.

Yet an unknown dog in an unknown house that's actually aware of you and mad about it? No way. Off to another target.
What do you believe the difference is in evaluating whether someone is following the rule of "Be kind" and whether someone is contributing to a culture of kindness?
What kind of data are you looking for? I had the exact problem. I recently wrote my own code to simulate it, it took me a while with all the nuances of old api vs new api, data model, etc but I was able to get it loaded up.
It seems like the ideal approach would be "proving" syntax proposals by implementing them in a preprocessor first and then later trying to standardize the syntax if it gains traction. It sounds like there are technical reasons for why that didn't work for the case of SCSS-like nesting, which is disappointing but understandable... if that's the case I think the right approach is to take these new proposals and "go back to square one" (preprocessor) vs. "go straight to standardizing something new".
Realising after reading something insightful and simultaneously truly malevolent to the extent that I finally accepted that the two things could coexist without cancelling each other out if you simply adopt a philosophical perspective I found disgusting, something that I'd dedicated the better part of ten years of my life to in the naive belief that it would be adopted and used from the same philosophical principles that drew me to it to begin with was not just naive in an inconsequential, minor way, but in the instance that temporal and economic power writ large might be imbued in parties within that ecosystem who would see fit to use it for things unambiguously evil and abhorrent. The kinds of malevolent sociopaths with whom my childhood had extensively familiarised me with, pursuing much the same ends, just with several orders of magnitude larger budgets and everything that implies.

Had me thinking long and hard about if the appropriate thing to do was throw a complete 180. But after that thinking, I came to the conclusion that people like that already exist and pursue the exact same abhorrent and adversarial outcomes as this discovery led me to understand were not isolated to the realms of states and large amoral multinational corporations, and attacking nebulous means to promote specific ends will just change the means that are used for the promotion of those ends all the same. It is the ends one has to be very careful of, fully cogniscent of the fact that those pursuing the most abhorrent ends rarely come out and actually earnestly mark themselves as the monsters that they are.

Flare guns are considered firearms in many countries, which is why flare guns are nearly completely obsolete for international sailing. They're also much less visible than equivalent handheld flares.

While there are USCG-compliant flare guns, you also cannot satisfy SOLAS requirements with a flare gun. You need to carry (depending on voyage and vessel) handheld distress, collision avoidance, and/or paraflares.
I'm personally glad to hear that!

I have also personally met people who,

- when I tell them "You're sort of right, but I have to disagree", hear "I agree with you".

- when I tell them "No, that's wrong", hear "I'm challenging your ego to prove that you're right!"

It takes a lot lot lot of nuance to discover how to communicate effectively.
Yes, unfortunately if you're being specifically targeted, they'll probably know about your dogs and have a plan.
Given that the existence of the lab is public knowledge, the paper could have at least acknowledged that the market was also a perfect site to distribute the virus intentionally.

This paper proves nothing beyond that there was a spatial relationship between the market and some of the initial cases. It wouldn’t have been hard for the CCP to discretely put some CV-19 distribution devices in the market, if the virus was released on purpose.
That Gilens and Page study has been debunked time and time again by various followup studies. Overwhelmingly the American people get their way. If not that, just look at direct polls from sources like Gallup. Even amongst climate-conscious progressives, the will to pay extra for gas or beef to negate climate change just isn't there.

Edit: as a test question for anyone who believes this 90% nonsense - can you name a single piece of high-priority, salient legislation (i.e. not an executive order or Supreme Court decision) that a vast majority of Americans didn't want, but that went through anyway because the government did the bidding of the corporations?

Overwhelmingly, the reason why we don't get policies like climate change mitigation, universal healthcare, housing, etc. is because Americans are just fundamentally divided on these topics. And where they are somewhat "united" (say, a public option for healthcare), they don't want to increase taxes to pay for it.

(High-priority and salient because things like dairy trade policy are probably influenced more by lobbying, but that's because most Americans obviously don't care about dairy trade policy)

txt file per day with a pinch of markdown.

I noticed that I were creating .txt file "new file 1" "new file 2" on desktop.
To write down some small things or clear up some commands for command line.

So I realized I will need such a file basically every day and now instead of creating such file ad-hoc, I create one in the morning. When I need to remember something or copy-adjust-paste I do it in that file.

Some days are left empty some days have hundreds of lines.

I don't organize it besides "archiving" each month/year.

Since it is all in single directory I just use VS Code on it and search with it. But I am not tagging or anything just searching plain text, old commands, names of servers functions I might have adjusted. Most of the stuff I can click around for last 7 days and find what I needed.
Eugenics doesn't work. The goal of Eugenics is not to grow more corn or make people more fertile. If those were it's goals, it could work.

Eugenics specifically aims to change the social situation (poverty, crime, drug use, etc) by changing the gene pool. That will never work, crime is not a genetic condition.

What you describe is genetic modification, not eugenics.
> “If we reasonably believe that we can prevent someone from dying or from suffering serious physical harm, we may provide information to a government agency — for example, in the case of bomb threats, school shootings, kidnappings, suicide prevention, and missing person cases,” reads Google’s TOS page on government requests for user information. “We still consider these requests in light of applicable laws and our policies.”

This is in line with the reasons cops can do things that otherwise normally require a warrant. This is generally 'a good thing.' The issue, for me, is in the abuse and interpretation of these exemptions.

It's not fraud. Even slightly.

Overselling capacity is perfectly fine if most of the time* you go to use the capacity it's there for you. If 95% of users under use capacity and you have the stats for it, it's perfectly reasonable to oversell sell with respect to the expected capacity usage. If those stats change, sure - they should adjust how much they oversell or what they advertise.

It's the same way a bank can't handle everyone pulling their money out all at once. It's perfectly reasonable to plan around practical scenarios.

Now if you rarely get what you paid for, sure, go for their heads over it.
