Irresponsible vehicle use should probably primarily lead to the vehicle getting impounded, but due to actively hostile leadership, this is unfortunately unlikely to happen.
Until then - did you know that placing a lentil within the cap of the tyre valve and then screwing on the cap causes the tyre to deflate?
Well, that was incredibly dumb.
It makes for a more acidic brew, which I personally really like. It’s quite fruity as well, while still definitely being coffee.
Based on your recommendations, it might not be your cup of tea (or in this case, coffee!), but it might be worth a try if you want to expand your horizons. I am personally not into dark roasts, being mostly a medium to light-roast person.
I’m a sucker for variety and will drink whatever are the beans of the month from my local roaster (Kafferosteriet Koppar), but my all-time favourite has to be the Bridazul roasted by Kafferäven. Fermented beans are a truly special experience in my book.
I don’t think you necessarily need to have studied a lot of math to be successful in programming, but you will need it if you want to get a CS degree, which in turn can be a good lever to a fruitful programming career.
My advice when it comes to math - math skills build upon the concepts you’re expected to have learned before, meaning that if you didn’t fully get everything in the past, then your foundation is not in great shape and you will struggle at higher levels. Going back and repeating the fundamentals just so that you fully understand everything is very helpful in my experience.
I also think that understanding math is rewarding in itself, for what it’s worth!
I’m similar in that I like black coffee. There’s a nice rabbit hole for people like us in speciality coffees too, so we don’t need to feel too left out!
The U.S is different in that car insurance has to cover medical expenses for others when you are at fault, combined with the risk of driving quite frankly being higher in the U.S. With medical costs being extremely high in the U.S, prices follow that fact.
Car insurance is expensive because cars are both risky and highly destructive. Hence, making a market for them involves high prices.
Regardless of what you think of insurance companies, there’s just no way around this - you could nationalize car insurance and it would still either be really expensive, either on the policy level or else born by taxes.
I think this is basically testing:
I mean, the pay is still way ahead of anything outside FAANG, really.
I think the poster was making a joke based on this image (or similar ones): 
The Swedish state-run media puts out a very good comparison between all the parties each election year which I use to understand what position each party has. It’s been generally easy to figure out which party is closest to me using that tool. It can be used for the three tiers of elections that we have in Sweden.
Other than that I try to look at polls to see whether it would be generally better for me to place a strategic vote on a party that is not my first choice.
This being Iceland it’s more likely to be a geothermalition tbh
Now B and C cannot be replaced for the purposes of testing the component in isolation, though. The hardcoded dependency just increased the testing complexity by a factor of B * C.
Consider the following: You have a class A that has a few dependencies it needs. The dependencies B and C never change, but D will generally be different for each time the class needs to be used. You also happen to be using dependency injection in this case. You could either:
This is a stripped example, but one I personally have both seen and productively used frequently at work.
In this case the AFactory could practically be renamed PartialA and be functionally the same thing.
You could also imagine a factory that returns different implementations of a given interface based on either static (B and C in the previous example) or dynamic dependencies (D in the previous example).
I’ve realized that Factories are actually kind of fine, in particular when contexualized as being the equivalent of partials from the world of functionals.
That doesn’t really seem to be a particularly useful study. You could probably find the exact same thing by selecting for owners of very expensive bicycles, but you would be proving exactly the same thing (which is nothing at all).
A more reasonable approach would be to split into cohorts of different levels of wealth and then compare internally between those cohorts, to see the difference in emissions of an EV owner/transit rider/biker/ICE owner is.
My gut feeling says that we’d find them ranked on the following order, from lowest emissions to highest:
It would be interesting to check whether that gut feeling holds in real life, and particularly how much the groups differ on a per-cohort basis.
Also the people are gorgeous and friendly, though the extreme politeness takes a lot of getting used to.
Do you mind elaborating a bit on this? I’m interested to hear.
Fetterman took a bit of a dark turn unfortunately, which I suspect is why he is where he is.
