16 hours is generally not allowed unless there are severe adverse conditions, but it's only recently with ELD (Electronic Logging Device) mandates that these rules are being forced to a degree. Before that, many drivers would simply go

It was like that in NYC at the time as well. I'm not sure when it stopped but have not seen add-on items in a long time and most things seem to ship immediately regardless of price (with Prime).

Yes but when I tried to switch to liability only it was $20 cheaper. What I pay seems to be the floor, it’s definitely the lowest of anyone I know so far who isn’t claiming to live outside of NYC. Meanwhile my motorcycle insurance, liabilit

In NYC with clean 15+ year driving record my premium is $270 a month after discounts with USAA. Geico, Allstate, Progressive all quote me $400/mo minimum. Have driven everything from old beaters to brand new economy cars with little di

With bare repos? I was bit by this a few years ago when work switched to "everything on OneDrive" and it seemed fine until one day it wasn't. Following that I did tests with Dropbox and iCloud to find that all could corrupt a

I was introduced to Richard Brautigan by a chance encounter with The Tokyo-Montana Express from the used book shelf, highly recommend it as well.

Probably more health zeitgeist of the '90s than any real concern. Your bed, body type, and sleep style might make one more appealing than the other. I was a restless sleeper though and had/have extreme difficulty getting to sleep

I started doing it as a kid in order to break my reliance on side sleeping and help general posture. These days I'm less strict but benefit from being able to find a comfortable position anywhere. I'd recommend not resting your he

Setup is just a thin rain mat, tent, sleeping bag, and inside dressed mostly in wool. If traveling with a parka and it's clean/dry, I might wear it inside but suppose it could be laid underneath as a pad. With colder but not sever

I’m from the US but a “floor sleeper” and have never camped with a pad like these even in near-freezing temperatures. I’m sure it helps but these days I get the impression from people around that they just like gear, don’t like being uncomf

Look up Mercor, DataAnnotation.tech, and Outlier. You create a profile, upload a resume, and do some required tasks for each job posting they have. It may involve a combination of interviewing with an AI, doing a few trial tasks, and submit

I have been a generalist annotator for some of the others you mentioned, due to NDA will not specify which. I would venture to guess that basically all major models use some degree of human feedback if there is money coming in from somewher

I agree with the main point but I am on battery often and the difference between native vs. one or multiple Electron apps in "doing my job" is easily several hours lost to battery life or interruptions for charging. Not a huge dea

I was able to run it on my M2 Air with 24GB. Startup was very slow but less than 10 minutes. After that responses were reasonably quick. Edit: I should point out that I had many other things open at the time. Mail, Safari, Messages, and mor
