Buses are also more massive so more likely to cause serious injury in an accident. They can't stop as fast as a car/bike /etc. But that's also why they seem to move more slowly, takes them longer to accelerate, which o

Mmm accordion buses definitely sound like extra danger

by dgoldstein0 13d ago
I'll give you that buses tend to be more predictable - they run fixed routes, you can guess where the stops are - but my biggest problem is whether they can see me or not. They are large so if they don't see me and start moving w

Totally agree that a DNS based replacement to the suffix list would make sense. Especially with more secure forms of DNS like DoH or Dnssec. That said I don't know about making cookies shareable across TLDs. That seems like allowing m

There are use cases for cookies to affect multiple domains, like shared logins. Keep in mind multiple domains let's you run completely independent servers for different parts of your web presence but that doesn't mean that you wa

This isn't so bad as .com.mx and .mx should be on the public suffix list then. But letting arbitrary customers take arbitrary 3 level domains, and others take 2 level domains, seems like a mistake as it's not very reasonable for e

Rent control won't really solve the problem as it can only help people who already live in the city but makes rents even higher for new residents - there have been studies that essentially find that rent control essentially just transf

Or more likely companies and people will just comply. It might give a little more fuel to open source from people who are ardently pro privacy that balk at an age signal bring implemented, but I don't think that's such a huge seg

It sounds like since Android is a commercial repackaging of Linux it's in scope and Google gets to figure it out.

SF - and probably much of the US homeless problem elsewhere - is largely cost of housing; rent and home prices are ridiculous enough that if you don't make big bucks, you are likely barely scraping by. Rents here are rising way faster

Prison isn't the right idea. But getting them into some sort of treatment would make sense. And that could be court mandated for repeat offenders for some crimes.

Paper still exists, though has definitely spent quite a while stagnant due to underinvestment.

Paper still exists - Drew refused to kill it. Been heavily underfunded for years and saddled with a codebase that assumed it would be >50 people forever, so still digging out of that hole - hence the apparent freeze on feature developme

Pbs is offering to pay for the recovery, but the company who supposedly has the data basically went non responsive. Honestly this sounds like a mishandled going out of business where the company left with the assets was not prepared to dea

yeah I assume they've done the cost-benefit and figured that if Russia gets the supplies they'll be hurt more than however much Iran can possibly retaliate - Iran does have missiles that can hit Israel so I do have to question whe

There's a difference between polite pushback and being straight up disrespectful. It shouldn't matter as the cops shouldn't abuse their power and shouldn't attack people, but we live in the real world. The judge probab

That would also require fatter wheels. Which together have higher moment of inertia which makes for slower bikes (as more energy is required to get the wheels to the same speed). Not exactly what people want in a race.

I mean I'd be a fan of a roadmap of simple improvements that contribute to a big vision. Shipping incrementally just seems to work better when possible.

California high speed rail has been a mess. Which is likely in part because politics dictating routes has raised the costs and timelines substantially. On a smaller scale SF was building a new subway in 2013 that had been on the drawing b

The climate requirements to run at this hotter temperature still probably means it'll require more active cooling in the desert during daytime /summers. Assuming we're talking about hotter desert environments like US southwe

It exists, but "works quite well" is only for a small amount of heat. It takes a big radiator to get rid of heat to ax vacuum. Much easier and cheaper to just keep the computers on earth and cool them with standard air or liquid

In the US at least, we've gotten to the point that kids under 10 are rarely trusted to be alone and parents risk neglect charges by leaving them. Even the 10-13 range could be a risk. The problem is if someone calls the cops or socia

Off the top of my head the purposes I've seen for them: - building native bindings (node-sass) - asking for funding (core-js) ... Probably a few more but the native case is probably the biggest and the packages I'm using nowadays

Why on earth would the backend function even take an email? Or perhaps said different: use the submitted info to identify the account; send any sensitive messages (recovery codes, password resets whatever) to only the contact info on file.
