IMO, it should be 20mph, but it's a software limit. It's nothing to "tune" it.
If you want to go faster, get a motorcycle license. The higher end ebikes are getting ridiculous. Their frames, tires, and brakes are not designed for the power and speed they can put down.
The assassin did hit a firefighter behind Trump. Did God not care about that guy?
Whenever some fundie says something about sexual education, replace it with food in the argument.
Nutritional education should be a private matter between a parent and child.
Teaching about food in school encourages kids to eat more food.
We don't make this sort of argument about literally any other subject. The very fact that they make these arguments shows they are putting sex in a special place, and will be completely incompetent at actually talking to their kids about sex.
People taking care of each other less is not a good sign.
We had a real union before. If there was a natural disaster in California or Texas or Florida or New York, we all pitched in to help. That's what federal taxes that go to FEMA do.
That's breaking down. No matter why it's happened or who is responsible, this is a bad sign.
Do you leave auto formatting on and deal with Confluence making bad decisions, or leave it off and have to manually set all the formatting?
I go for the second option, but I'm not sure it's less irritating or not.
GitHub tickets are fine.
Jira is complicated because PMs want it to do everything. It can, but there's no good reason for it.
I get to say that I've truly made it as a programmer. The reason is that I wrote around 75 lines of Rust, came back a year later, and I could see exactly how it works.
In case you're wondering, it's a command line Slack client for sending notifications. Colored highlights and everything.
My company sends out emails like "vibe it up" with links to their vibe coding workshops.
I'm getting the impression that people need it explained that "vibe coding" is not supposed to be a complement.
Take Titanic, where the movie is a romance that happens to be set in a historical event.
Now imagine that instead of a director who really loves the ocean, it's a director who really loves blowing shit up. That's Pearl Harbor, and you would be correct for avoiding it with violence if necessary.
The issues are systemic and won't be solved by replacing people.
As one example, it would be 100% legal in many states for a bad cop to rape a prisoner. No matter how many good cops testify against them, there would be no legal basis for prosecuting them. At best, department policy would give cause to fire them. Then they'll get a job in some county with an elected sheriff who ran on being Tough On Crime (tm).
Well, yeah, that's what it should be.
Cities are often too big of an institution for this kind of mutual aid to work. It needs to be a social unit where you can know most of the people.
Doesn't work, but it's an admirable thought.
Why are all my variables suddenly named after SS officers?
If you squint a lot, HOAs could be a mechanism for bringing neighborhoods together. It allows them to self-govern over the shared resources for the neighborhood. Want to get a company to run fiber to everyone's home, or build a solar/wind farm for fewer dollars per MW than rooftop solar could ever do? An HOA is a legal mechanism to setup the financing and agreements to make that work in an affordable way for the residents.
Most HOAs are not setup for anything like that. They're for requiring what fencing contractor you have to use and banning natural lawns.
I basically don't think you should be able to create a government by using a contract.
It's basically what Anarco-capitalism wants to do. Incidentally, HOAs form the best real world argument against Anarco-capitalism.
You're saying I shouldn't divorce my wife because they forget to put the spices back on the rack?
Real leaders don't need to be paranoid about what their underlings think about them. Fascism is more fragile than it appears.
The loopholes on the farm bill are so big that I don't know why we're debating legalization at this point.
To meet the 2018 farm bill requirements, your thing needs to have <0.3% delta-9 THC by weight. This opened up the delta-8 market--less potent but you can just add more of it--but that was only the start of exploring the new legal territory this opened up.
10mg of THC delta-9 is considered a good sized dose in edible products. A standard can of soda is about 225 grams. So do the math: 0.01g / 225g = 0.004%. Close to two orders of magnitude under the farm bill limit, and a lot of THC seltzers come in bigger cans than that. You can sell that in every state that hasn't specifically banned it otherwise.
It gets even better. To get 10mg of THC delta-9, a gummy only needs to be about 3g to make the 0.3% limit. Not that big at all.
That mostly leaves smoking/vaping as the only methods that don't have an easy loophole.
Just legalize it already. This is stupid.
