A dandy-horse, or a velocipede.

The calf muscle pump performs the same task in humans.

Fascinating. I had to read up on this. Apparently it was Ritonavir and polymorphism.

A friend of mine planted a small tree in one, after many months of notifying the local council. It was fixed very quickly.

The FT podcast series “Hot Money” season one explained a lot about this. Basically the payment card industry shapes what adult content is produced by governing the money flow.

They have more usability problems than that. Driving Mercedes Benz hire cars a couple of times recently in UK and Ireland was a shock - they have the automatic gearbox PRND selector on the right-hand stalk, and indicators on the left hand one. I could maybe excuse that on a LHD car, but on an RHD car, it is infuriating. Using the windscreen wipers instead of indicating is a trivial low-consequence mistake, bumping into neutral is not.

(2012). Another article on the same doctor was discussed recently:

Regarding Claude: As I have unticked the "Help improve Claude" checkbox, I was under the impression that Claude did not do this.

Thanks mate. If he can assault my ears, I can assault his nose, right. Or threaten to ;)

I had it happen to me, on a long-haul flight, in business class. I was shocked. I stood up to look at the guy after no-one did anything.

I told him that phone speakers "make me gassy" and then he turned it off.

BYD are about to launch an EV that charges from 10 to 70% in 5 minutes. As much as I recoil at a brand called "Build Your Dreams", that is quite compelling.

Still trying to catch them. They keep drinking my cider and eating my chickens.

I have a Unifi doorbell and it takes great photos of the local badgers, foxes, and other wildlife. They are stored locally. Love it.

I understand the need to join the conversations about the same topic. Thanks for keeping the URLs separate. Reading Gruber's long form considered article is very different to reading some second hand Asus executive "shock" comments.

The article has hyperlinks in it, e.g. to this:

https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/answers/questions/5786144/...

which comes from an ESP serving millions of users.

Placing anti-personnel mines is also not very effective in a pitched conflict.

The enemy will lose a few soldiers, but will then clear a marked path. The long term effects far outweigh any short-term advantage.

My understanding is that the DOD signed the terms of service, and are now trying to renegotiate them. Anthropic has declined to change the terms. This makes the government angry.

The telco would be the one collecting it first, I assume. It would be interesting for someone in the EU to request their data from their telco, and if it contains these precise locations, question the usage.

A Concept 2 rowing machine can also do this (in my experience). No impact, similar to swimming.

At least BEA airliners used to have quite a few backward facing seats, up to half the plane.

However, there were a number of problems - people didn't like sitting in them, people didn't like hearing that their seat wasn't as safe as the others, you can't get as many rows in unless you turn them all backwards, and the structure needs to be designed differently so then you need more spares.

is the longest word ever to appear in literature

Thank goodness Joyce doesn't have the record with his invented words in Finnegans Wake.

Good stuff, I appreciate your work.

I suspect that the ADHD audience on HN would skew towards people who have already developed coping mechanisms and systems (and some people seem to have very high intellectual horsepower), so you might not find the best market fit or feedback here. I think I am past the point where this may have been a fit for me, but earlier in my life it may have been very useful.

Edit: Can you explain what "clear boundaries around non-medical use" means?

“Supersonic 2.0,” where anyone can catch a quick, affordable supersonic flight almost anywhere on earth.

There is a proven middle ground, where you can pay the current price or x the price for 2x the speed.

A triumph. I love this.

JSON doesn't have parentheses, but it does have braces and brackets. The JSON spec specifically allows spaces.

Insignificant whitespace is allowed before or after any token.

Without disagreeing:

Sometimes it is nice to simplify the conversation with non-tech management. Oh, you want HA / DR / etc? We click a button and you get it (multi-AZ). Clicking the button doubles your DB costs from x to y. Please choose.

Then you have one less repeating conversation and someone to blame.

Conversely, slowing down an adversarial email conversation can lead to better outcomes. A rapid or delayed response signals your position and priority on the topic.

Sounds like he had lots of good people around him helping him.

The technical aspects you mention are important. I have diplopia, and also close one eye. It gets worse in the evenings. I love paper books and own many, but all my reading now is on a Kindle, with a huge font. It makes it so much easier.

Many people with MS get diplopia, and so need prismatic lenses to help with the double vision.
