This makes no sense. Why would a school’s insurance policy cover kids outside of school (excluding the bus which might still be school jurisdiction)?

And if insurance doesn’t cover them anyway, it shouldn’t care what they do.

Numbers from elsewhere in the conversation.

The UK has fewer knife attacks per person than the US.

It’s just that there’s so much gun violence, no one talks about it.

I would assume the token is only good for a few page accesses.

E.g. 500 would mean that a person would see this extremely rarely, and still block a bot from crashing the site.

I think it’s just been easy to ignore how evil they are.

They’ve been tightly linked with Peter Thiel since they took over PayPal which has constantly stolen people’s money. It’s just harder for an auction house like eBay to be obviously evil.

This is a very American thing.

Measuring popularity in terms of money spent.

By this metric, spending time with loved ones or going for a short walk has zero popularity.

I always wonder it’s what we see now.

Supreme court justices are lifetime appointments and can freely reinterpret the law to mean what ever they want.

The quantified scientist would be the first to tell you that he’s making these determinations on a sample size of one (sometimes he gets a friend to help, and then it’s a sample size of two).

So maybe what ever tech you’re thinking about will work for him and not for you or vice versa.

Unfortunately, it’s kinda like the wild west out there. The tech changes so fast that no one has time to do a big study and figure out what actually works.

Oh it’s much worse than that.

Cops have used Flock’s FreeForm search feature to look for people with tattoos and wearing specific sport shirts, and searches sometimes include the target’s race, according to data reviewed by 404 Media.

Good to see that 100x developers still don’t get their own office, just a gimp mask.

Yeah, it was from a list of factors that contribute to an overall decrease. That doesn’t mean that it affects everyone in the world, just that it is part of the reason for some of the decrease.

Remember that anthropic are renting this data center, and should be seen as just as responsible as Musk.

Also Musk is such a loser, he built and ran this giant polluting data center without knowing what to do with it, and ended up renting it out at what looks like a loss.

Having pleasantly cool nuts is good for your sperm production. I guess it probably does something similar for testosterone production.

You can order those directly from china via the big resalers like AliExpress or temu.

You’re still giving a cut to a big Amazon like company, but even when you buy things like phone cases locally, the local shops probably just brought it from one of the big resalers anyway.

Yeah, try riding a folding bike with small wheels, you wobble a lot more.

It’s not about the magnitude of the rotational inertia (which is roughly the same or maybe a bit higher on larger wheels that are probably heavier), it’s about the center of the gyroscopic effect. It’s at a greater height if you have big wheels, and closer to the ground if you have small ones.

I think it only holds if it’s a magic engine that always hits the same max RPM regardless of load, and the transmission is the same.

Otherwise the top land speed record would be held by a monster truck.

The answer to width is rolling resistance.

Tires stick to road which is great for accelerating and breaking, but it makes maintaining your top speed harder. This doesn’t matter if you have a big engine, but it makes a difference if you’re cycling.

For a road bike, you want to minimize the contact area of the tire with the road so you have very narrow tires and inflated a lot so that they don’t deform much under your weight.

The type and width of tires changes depending on what you’re riding on. For off road you have wide knobbly tires that will catch in mud and push you forward. For riding on a beach you have very wide smooth tires for traveling over sand.

The diameter is about stability. If you have small wheels turning fast it effectively lowers your center of gravity due to gyroscopic effects (this is a massive over simplification of the physics) big wheels turning more slowly results in a higher center of gravity, which is more stable.

Cars have four wheels and don’t need to care about this.

Ok real talk here.

Work to rule and malicious compliance only works when you have the backing of a strong union, or workers rights. In the US, for most jobs, they can fire you whenever they feel like it, and for no reason at all.

If anyone senior decides you’re fucking with them, even if there’s no proof, and they’re completely running on vibes, they might just fire you anyway.

My advice is copy the other porters. They know how much they can get away with, and find a decent hiding place for when you’re on a break.

Oh he’s just using an LLM to write all the posts. That’s why it’s garbage.

Interesting. The story in the west was that the translation for silksong was shit and that’s what pissed everyone off.
