Well, there is this: https://mobilitydatabase.org/ which sounds about what you're looking for, although it is still up to the client to combine the feeds its looking for.

Well, I am reading it and I hope I manage. It's pretty scary to leave behind what I've excelled in all my life but it is the only way forward for me. So thanks for the encouragement :).

I think the worst is when they are skilled. You're basically describing my work day. My job went from interesting, highly skilled work to mostly horrible brain rot over the past year. It's depressing and I don't know a way

I fully agree but that is a different argument than the one mingus88 presented. They suggested that the owner did not wipe the device because they did not actively enter the pin, which seems to be a flawed idea because legally intent matter

A bit of topic, but does the word "seconded" still work when five are required? Isn't there a more generic term?

Yes. This seems mostly the same for lower-case, except we made a lower loop on the f as well making at one stroke. Also, our capitals were a bit more complicated, such as having 3 loops in the H.

Going from 720 average to 100,000s peak still doesn't sound realistic. especially as they operate in many timezones.

100k(s) orders per minute is several orders of magnitude more than realistic. Amazon does 20k orders per minute. Instacart doesn't need "100,000s of grocery delivery orders per minute". There must be some 0s added for the sak

Please use HTTPS. I use HTTPS only. I don't think HTTP is acceptable for anyone let alone a technical blog post. It takes a few minutes, and it prevents me and all your visitors from getting all kinds of MITM injections. Thanks.

At 3x5 it states: > The "M", "W" and "Q" suffer, but it's still got a distinct O and zero. The Q is weird; I would think it makes more sense to draw it as a zero with the bottom right set.

I am responding to someone that used OIL presumably because it is - although incorrect - more clear as an example for those that are not into trading.

The fact that is used to make profit doesn't absolve us from any moral judgement. Buying stocks of a company improves its financial position allowing it to grow. Would you buy stocks of ClusterBombsInc over CureForCancerInc because it

Wow. I am not sure how to respond to this as you seem to have a completely different mindset. You mean to say it is "proven" not to be a solid strategy as in not maximizing profit? Surely, you acknowledge that funding something is

Well, it would be if everyone betting wouldn't have an influence on the outcome. That's "wisdom of the crowds". But what if the people putting money on the Strait being closed are the same that close them? Surely, that&#

I think that's horribly fatalistic perspective. Yes, humans can be bad. But humans can change. Let's not start accepting bad stuff as not so bad, simply because it is "just human behavior".
