  • Cranberries don't grow on the water, the fields are just flooded at harvest time because the berries float, which makes it an easy method to gather them.

  • Lion batteries have flames without explosions because of design considerations with the batteries: vent holes that allow pressure and heat to escape a failing battery. It's possible that if those safeguards were compromised, you could trigger an actual explosion.

  • And the guy who invented it didn't ever have to use it for decades afterwards, it was purely theoretical to him.

  • Alexa Is in Millions of Households—and Amazon Is Losing Billions

    Jump

  • Sure, no one is saying that. The point is that it doesn't send anything other than the stuff after the keywords back to company servers.

  • There's also the matter of there being literally hundreds of security and privacy researchers who would love nothing more than to catch Amazon doing this, and no one has in any major way.

  • There's also been tons of academic studies on it that back it up.

  • It also could be referencing something that they were better at in their prime, but may no longer be able to do due to age. Like answering running if your dad was a professional runner or something.

  • Are niche pillows and cases worth it?

    Jump

  • They come with a big thick zip up cover, if that's the kinda thing you're looking for. I don't really remember noticing any powder on mine when I got it, but it's entirely possible I just didn't notice.

  • I haven't ever weighed it so that might be a bit of an overestimate, but not by much lmao, it's ridiculously heavy

  • Are niche pillows and cases worth it?

  • I also got a purple pillow on a friend's recommendation. I'm a really hot sleeper, and a side sleeper, so I need a lot of pillow and it was hard finding both of those things in one pillow for me. It's been great, I like it a lot. The main downsides are it's heavy as shit (the pillow probably weighs like 8kg, it's wild), the weird rubbery texture takes some getting used to, and the little mats they give you that go under the pillow to make it taller get bunched up if you move the pillow too much.

    Other than those minor complaints, I've really loved it. It stays very cool, while still being springy and contouring.

    I haven't really experimented with other pillowcases, but I have been meaning to, if anyone knows of something nice.

  • The driver skill is hard to control, but I would assume they had equal pressure in the tires, or at least close enough. There's also more things that matter like tire width, lockers, horsepower, weight etc.

    Even if it's not a perfectly scientific test, it can still be interesting

  • Leaked Documents Reveal How Google Search Gatekeeps the Internet

  • Yeah, honestly it would be fascinating if you wanted to go search for the specific terms that you think should bring that up, and then compare how deep your blog is in the results on a bunch of different web search pages.

  • got him

    Jump

  • Yeah, the annoying thing is the people who I generally have found to be the worst about stuff like this are old school Senior C developers, who still program like it's 1987 and we have to fit everything into 4K of RAM.

    Fortunately there's nothing like that in my code base, I just run into stuff like that periodically when I'm digging around in other team's server code looking for something.

  • My personal code readability axe to grind is nested complex ternary operators.

    Every now and then I'll see something like this

    return (checkFormatType(currentObject.type==TYPES.static||currentObject type==TYPES.dynamic?TYPES.mutable:TYPES.immutable)?create format("MUTABLE"):getFormat(currentObject));

    And I have a fucking conniption because just move that shit into a variable before the return. I get it when sometimes you just need to resolve something inline, but a huge amount of the time that ternary can be extracted to a variable before the ternary, or just rewrite the function to take multiple types and resolve it in the function.

  • Yeah the difference is hot fusion works, see: the sun. Cold fusion would require a fundamental change in how we understand physics works. It's junk science.
