Battery life can be pretty variable. Running step tracking, heart rate every five minutes, and the xDrip watchface, I only get about a week and a half.

It’s so nice to not have to check my phone all the time to know where my blood sugar is at. I’m looking forward to the upcoming rework of how xDrip handles Pebble communication so that I can start playing with my own watch faces. Theirs does its job but isn’t stylish by any means.

That’s a standard term in media. Words 7-8 of Bill Nye’s Wikipedia article, for example, are “science communicator,” beating out all other descriptors.

The engineering work was replacing a testing system. They are claiming it would take five years to rewrite their tests in a new format…

I’m in Chicago and there’s about a mile of my commute that I’m certain has far higher pedestrian injuries than the rest for the same reason you mention. It’s a wide-open street, but I see at least two people every day crossing at random points when the way isn’t clear. The “make the road narrow so people slow down” fix people like to throw about here would likely make it more dangerous because there’d be less visibility.

Other sections have structural issues, but that area is social.

They never dropped it. it is the conclusion of their ethics statement. A journalist didn’t bother to hit ctrl-f or scroll down, put out a false article, and everyone else has been parroting the lie ever since.

Sort of. Taylor Farms grew the lettuce. The Jalapenos were grown by Coast Citrus and bought by just about everybody. Taylor Farms is effectively a victim in this, but their name currently draws clicks.

They are making a big advertising push right now about how Safari is the only private browser on iOS. Why? Because they can’t force every other browser to be Safari reskins anymore, losing control of that precious piece of data they can monetize.

I don’t judge

Kinda sounds like you are…

He was directing his Twitter followers to create accounts to vote yes on a proposal to set up an official project to take back Wikipedia from the Cultural Marxists. The ban is well deserved.

The claim that it was removed is false. From the Google code of conduct:

And remember… don’t be evil, and if you see something that you think isn’t right – speak up!

I’m seeing some applications for it as an easy-to-implement context-aware OCR scanner for things that have consistent content in wildly inconsistent formats. Think lists of open invoices from suppliers in a thousand different for-printing layouts, plus some just being screenahots from their systems. The AI system can process those and output a consistent list, which can then be matched against a database the old-fashioned way.

That’s the only practical use I’ve found.

Starbucks controls their supply chain. If they wanted to, they could have their manufacturers put RFID tags on sleeves of cups, bottles, etc and automate inventory with perfect accuracy. Instead, they spent way more money on an AI solution, then had to abandon it because it doesn’t work.

Cyanoacrylate was formulated specifically to bond well with human skin. Liquid stitches.

Fickity-fuck Fickity-fuck

The trackpads on the Steamdeck/SC2 are much better than the SC1.

Valve was forced to stop manufacturing the SC1 due to patent trolling related to the paddles.

We’ll also be experimenting with reduced pod sizes, including one person teams with engineers, designers, and product managers all in one role.

Six months from now: Why does this financial app feel like it is six different amature solo projects bolted together?

It is mixed with CO2 and lots of water. usually about 5:1, so this BIB makes 30 gallons of soda.

the source is the Miami Herald. They claim to have seen FBI documents referencing a bunch of independent reports from different parts of the prison. A guard on the gate where the dumpsters are notified the FBI that he was seeing very high volumes of shredded paper come out. An inmate tasked with trash transport told one of his guards that BOP investigators were having him transport bags of shredded documents, which he felt was counter to an investigation. There were more beyond those two.
