That sounds like pretense. Are they paid the same? The question is meant as sarcasm.

I find this thread so ridiculous. I've traveled all over and lived all over. I rarely find that peoples' perceived cultural distinctions are in line with reality. I think instead it's often just lip service to their own sense of identity.

Above, someone mentioned that Americans have an idea that there is a master and servant relation with your boss. As an American I find that shocking. I have never felt that way about my bosses nor have I ever treated an employee that way. As a lowly sys admin many years ago, I went to bars and lunches with CEOs of companies of hundreds of millions of dollars. I'm still friends with them. I'm not worth millions but we still go out for drinks and enjoy dinners together. I'm not just talking about one person. This is not rare.

We respond to people the way we think they want us to respond. Your own stereotypes about another culture will be self fulfilling because of that.

Additionally any assumption you can make, about American culture specifically, would miss the fact of American culture. We have none because we have all cultures. My kid probably hears more Hindi than English in the classroom.

To make any statement about culture in America you'd need to specify. Americans from where have a master/slave mentality? Americans from Australia? India? Pakistan? China? Japan?

Which of those are the "Americans" you're referring to? Surely you wouldn't assume each of those groups have just one culture.
> Bicycles achieve balance through the gyroscopic effect, something with angular momentum and physics or whatever

Bicycles achieve balance because the rider counter-steers to prevent the bike from falling aside.

Destin from SmarterEveryDay had a friend build a special bike where the actions of the handlebar are inverted: when you turn it to one direction, the front wheel turns in the other direction.

It's impossible to ride such a bike.

Well, not exactly impossible: you have to completely re-learn riding, like you never knew before. Which shows that steering is the core (only?) skill to riding.

It's a great video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MFzDaBzBlL0
I have no idea about your bank offerings, but compared to _my_ bank Revolut had much fewer hoops to jump through when opening a child's account. As for being able to keep track - it depends on what "keep track" means for you. It is not possible to understand how much money is left by just looking at the card, and having the account costs some fee (quite small to me and I have my "main" account anyway), but the card itself is free and it is possible to block it (unlike a lost 100SEK banknote). And it seems possible to manage accounts through a web browser (assuming you are not completely against using a computer).
Not sure how frequently you create a new Git repo but every time I do I am given some weird moralizing thing about the branch name.
I would always know it as a kick-bike, but yes agreed.

Our child got a kickbike for his 2nd birthday an was proficient in using it within days. From there he moved to a pedal-bike when he was around four or so. No training wheels, and no real difficulty.

Those "nonsense" are from World Wide Web Consortium, users are just doing what they say. The "hipster" are the ones not respecting those Ethical Web Principles. Users are not injecting trackers and malwares to those independents' servers. Why do those independents inject trackers and malwares to users' machines?

The ones who destroyed the open web are the business, including independents and corporations, with the mentality of luring more users to use their "free" services, without any plans of controlling the cost, ETHICALLY and MORALLY. Scale, scale, scale, more users, more beautiful number; until their pocket is burnt and now their resolution is pushing those trackers and malwares to compensate the cost.

Ads, malvertisements and trackers are not the open web.

I had a model Y before, and after it became clear that I'm not extending my lease (thanks Mr. Musk), I test-drove a few alternatives, Mustang EV, IONIQ 5 & 6, etc. Ended up getting BMW I4, and man, this beats Tesla in every way. Yes, software might be not as perfect, but as a car to drive, it's so much better.
I've been back on Firefox for 2-3 years now since the Manifest v3 stuff was initially brewing. Still eagerly waiting for Fission/tab isolation to land on Android.

I believe most states it is LEGAL to enter the intersection(normally marked by a white line) before the light turns red.

I was convinced at the time--and I'm still convinced--that there was a TON of astroturfing on places like Reddit and even here when Nadella became CEO of Microsoft and there was that whole "Microsoft hearts Open Source" campaign. Every other comment was "You're just stuck in the past. You're as bad as the conspiracy theorists. It's not even the same people running the company anymore. Blah blah blah."

And now they own Github and they're training their AI models on you and your code and forcing that crap into a bunch of PCs. They were about to push out a "feature" to Windows that periodically took screenshots of what you were doing and used AI to analyze what you were doing. Then they sprinkle some glitter for the easily-distracted and tell you that it's actually a feature for you. Last I heard, they shelved the idea for now because of the backlash, but we all know they'll circle back around.

But, yeah, I'm a tinfoil hat weirdo who's just a "hater."
Why is it dangerous? (Unless they're breaking the speed limit to make the light, obviously.) Just the risk that they might misjudge the timing and enter the intersection after the light turns red? But lights have a built in delay before turning green to account for that.
Great reading recs, thank you. Really appreciate the context as well for each. I'm familiar with a couple of these (not all!) and am excited to dig in.
Try doing this while you're driving with the gpt4o advanced audio mode. It's a nice way to kill 40 minutes or so without having to look at a screen. Just tell it you want to play an RPG with it, give it a setting, describe your character and go. It'll mostly be more of a choose your own adventure than a real RPG, but it can sometimes be quite entertaining.

One thing I've never understood with homeschooling: How come parents think they have the competence to be a teacher? Just because you are educated doesn't mean you are a good (pedagogical) educator.
Exactly, hire a team of 3 and pay 500K in compensation, or spend 100K on a system that works and you get a support person to call in the event of an issue. The math is so simple.
Training wheels are terrible. Both of my kids learned how to ride on balance bikes, basically in under a day. When switching to pedal power, there IS a transition period where learning how to pedal AND balance at the same time is challenge. But it's a lot shorter and less frustrating than trying to learn how to pedal AND balance at the same time.
A while ago I was playing with chatgpt and had it create me a text based game. It took some coaxing but eventually it actually created a pretty compelling beginning to a game at least. This wasn't D&D, I had chatgpt just make the rules but the interesting part was creating a compelling story. Maybe it would have fallen apart after a little bit of game play but it was neat. I could see the fun of having completely unique and instantly created modules to run through.

I know it as the "California Roll" - to slow down but continue to cruise through stop signs.
In 2022 I bought my first EV, a BMW i4. It was an impressive am car and still is: second only to Tesla Model 3 when it comes to efficiency and superior to Tesla in terms of features and driving assistant systems.

BMW and Tesla both refreshed their i4 and Model 3 models las year. And the improvement in the Model 3 has been noticeable: better efficiency and range, also better driving dynamics and added features. BMW has barely changed anything, same motors and batteries, just a slightly newer infotainment system and new aesthetic. Not only that, some features are actually gone like the laser lights.

The FSD in the Tesla has improved also lots since 2022, while BMW Driving Assistant is still the same we had in 2022. Robust, but no new features.

I think Tesla is really doing a great job of improving their vehicles compared to legacy OEMs. I guess the i4 will only get real improvements with their next model in 2027.
Agreed on DM making the experience special. The cognitive load on a DM is very high though. They have to digest information on the game setting and the monsters, synthesize scenes and react to players' interactions all the while staying true to the narrative. I think LLM's can play a big part in assisting human DMs by either providing low-fidelity ideas for "inspiraton", commonsense based on their training on D&D texts and literature or high fidelity text in some cases to be directly presented to the players.
The lack of physical safety is caused by many things, and I doubt you can lay the blame on people complaining about wokeness. There are bullys, drug dealers, gangs, normal hormonal teenagers fighting, interpersonal drama, romance, poverty. All sorts of things influencing the violence.

"With the change, the light always sits green for drivers on Palm, so cars are now always flying through that street when they previously had to stop at a stop sign"

I used to encounter an infuriating version of this during my commute through SF Mission Bay. There were several lights that clearly were on a timer but wouldn't show the walk signal for pedestrians unless you had pressed the button before the current cycle. In practice this meant that I'd arrive at the intersection that had one or two cars waiting at a red light. This was clearly when I could have gotten a walk signal with no other changes required. However, without the signal I had no idea when it would switch and couldn't walk in front the waiting cars. So I typically ended up waiting till the light turned green for the cars, they drove off and I then crossed as a pedestrian while cars clearly had a green signal but they were gone. I would have had to wait another minute or so for the proper right of way to come around again. Totally bonkers outcome to have to wait for the cars to get a green signal. This would never happen the other way around.
> yellow must mean "begin controlled deceleration immediately"

This is not true in the strong form you used. There is a regime where there is no possibility you will be able to stop the vehicle in time using reasonable deceleration. Slowing does no good. There is also a regime where slowing will cause you to enter the intersection during the red light, and not decelerating will not.

This technique didnt work at all for my kids. Having any sort of "safety net" at all seemed to prevent any teachable moments. The most important factor in teaching my kids to ride a bike was how long they spent on the bike trying to ride it. I have three kids, and my youngest is too young to learn, so I have one more chance to test my theories.
> Putting every control on a touchscreen is a cost-saving measure

That is the meme. But at the same time, they put a (barely usable) rear passenger touchscreen in the back seat mid console on the Model 3 refresh, and now they're putting powered back seats in the Model Y refresh. There's no way that's cheaper than a few buttons/stalks here and there.

Is that something they're purely doing to try to catch the hearts and minds of the Chinese market? As I have been led to believe, for a lot of Chinese, the back seat is very important.

Both government and private can be efficient or inefficient, it depends on the motive, I don't know why people insist on pretending one is always superior.

In the case of SpaceX they are more efficient because NASA is intentionally hamstrung relative to them, this is done by congress because they treat NASA as a jobs program, it is intended to provide employment in as many states as possible, not produce efficient and affordable rockets. Congress dictates which rockets they are allowed to build, where they will build them, who will build them, and overrides them, forcing them to build nonsense rockets such as SLS.
There is another line before. We don't really see the entire intersection.

There's nothing inherently right-wing about homeschooling. You could just as easily homeschool as left-wing parents who don't want your kids immersed in an environment where other kids judge them by what brands they're wearing, and where the teachers all subscribe to the capitalist view of how society should function.

It's true that homeschooling has been more prevalent among the right wing, but there are lots of people who do it for lots of reasons. We did it when our local elementary school was bottom third in the state. My wife called up the vice principal, and asked why we should put our kids in their school. He said that their school could toughen up our kids. We decided that "tough" wasn't our main goal for our daughters, and we noped out of that school.
That is a fine opinion to have. Mine have been worth every minute and penny and I wish I had them 10 years ago - but was dissuaded by nearly everyone including my grand plans for myself.

I am not trying to convince you, but one rational / philosophical argument goes:

Imagine the thing you are trying to accomplish before you have children. Now imagine your neighbor lets his children die (or be taken away) so he can do that, because parenthood was in the way. Everyone is aghast. Yet we deny ourselves parenthood to do that thing all the time.
If you do not wait in the intersection itself then you would never get a chance to turn in many intersections. The only solution is to always wait in the intersection itself.
Except the article doesn’t claim what the drivers are doing is illegal.

The article says that the street design causes drivers to speed up and makes the intersections unsafe.

Instead of drivers always stopping, or at the very least slowing down, when approaching the intersection, the new street design leads to drivers speeding up when approaching the intersection.

This is bad design for pedestrians irrespective of whether the driver jumps a light, the pedestrians cross when they shouldn’t be, or neither of them are doing anything wrong.

It will increase the odds of collisions, injuries and possibly fatalities.
Thanks for explaining.

Because human beings care about things that aren't the economy. Do you actually evaluate all public spending on this sole metric, or just the things you don't personally desire?
This is just not true.

In Toronto for instance, the majority of pedestrian deaths are caused by impaired/distracted drivers with a significant portion of failure to yield by left turning drivers at major, light controlled intersections.

There isn't even a category for "four way stop" pedestrian fatalities.

I think the address bar is on top by default now, and that has always been configurable. (Personally I do prefer it at the bottom.)
Aside from the debate, 600k seems insanely high for this intersection. No wonder this country's infrastructure is crumbling when it takes over half a million dollars to put in a few lights.

> I so badly wish we could change a big Windows business application to use PostgreSQL

This ^^^

A small businness I (no longer) work for was using Windows Servers, SQL Server, Classic ASP, .NET and other things. It was expensive!

I tried sooo hard to migrate to get them to realise the savings moving over to Linux and Postgres, and get their DATED software over over afterwards!

Well, it was Linux and MySQL/MariaDB but I have slowly grown fond of Postres over the last couple of years.

I will always remember (and find funny) when we purchased a server a third-party no longer wanted to support for us anymore (linux+php) and my boss said "they only pay £300 a year for that server" -- yep.
Very generally, if it is a busy place I actually prefer a highly controlled intersection with clear lights and signs vs 4 way stops.

I've had way more problems at 4 way stops than intersections controlled by lights.

I would add:

3) Fear of fear of school shootings.

The active shooter drills and other security measures that American kids go through in some schools are positively dystopian. Even if the chances of a school shooting are statistically very low, the measures put in place to prevent them are probably not good for kids' psychological well being.
You can't be serious. The stop line is where the intersection begins. If you cross the stop line on yellow you won't get a ticket and it is perfectly legal in most US states.
datalist is one I stumbled upon and blew me away. https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTML/Element/da...

It's not a replacement for select as you still need an input to tie it to but it seems to handle filtering a list of options nicely.

Also, if you have two selects with the same list in it, you can do it once with datalist and have two inputs, say a list of clients with client_a and client_b for inputs.

I don't quite care for how it displays the value, like if you put the ID as the value and the client name in the option element, you can filter by the ID or the name but the input will show the ID only.
Yes, you are correct. That's why I specifically did not address the car's entry into the intersection.

Given the red light, is the car in a legal position in the freeze frame?
I fully disagree. Road infra is engineered to move goods quickly, and never to public opinion unless that public opinion brings loads of cash to help. Again, there are major exceptions to this default. Complaining about it helps, but does not bring cash to the table when it's time to build or rebuild road infra. As municipalities change over time, a city will always regress to car-first. Cars are simply the easiest path for it to move goods quickly.
