It would be nice to see some sat-nav apps adding an 'Avoid Flock' option that uses the camera location data to route you around them. Although, I don't know how ubiquitous they are, so it may make routing through some big cities impossible!

I didn't know about Imginn, so thanks!
Hundreds? Really? I can see making two or three before giving up, but to build hundreds..
The biggest difference that stood out to me was that the fuel compositions are almost exactly opposite; 85/15 ethanol/gasoline for Indy and 10/90 for F1.
I was able to find plenty of articles saying that next year F1 will move to a "100% sustainable fuel", but none that actually mentioned the composition. Is it likely to move closer to the make-up of the Indy fuel?
I thought the same thing. I also found it surprising that the number of people on a smoking break was quite a bit higher than either of those - I wonder how many transition from intimacy to smoke break :D
It would be interesting if it could fluctuate depending on birth rates at different times of day in different countries. That way, it could at least have a bit of dynamism if, for example, India had the highest global birthrate and most births there occured during daylight hours.
Why even bother with one of those crusty old 3-letter agencies, when you can go straight to the top via your very own 4-letter (1 better!) agency: D.O.G.E.
Also a sure-fire way to get some irate drivers banging on your front door, given that it would be easy to work out which house the photo was taken from.
One very rich man is pushing hard to implement some.
I’ve never read a press release by a US government agency before, so it may be the standard, but the language in it strikes me as petty and childish, especially the last piece; “sprinkler nozzles that just don’t work well”.
“The people, not the government, should be choosing the home appliances and products they want at prices they can afford.” - you still get to choose which appliance you have in your home, but the government is there to help ensure that appliance is reliable and efficient.
I feel bad for the guy. Every few years he reappears in the news making another attempt. Clearly it’s something that’s going to weigh on him for the rest of his life.
I like how some of the particles get thrown out of the cluster on wider elliptical orbits, they look like comets.
Absolutely agreed, it’s a really nice conversational tone. It is technical without being dry and entertaining without watering down the information. I strive to write like this.
This is precisely why I use Bear [0] (although Bear does hide the link URLs) and just cannot get on with Notion. The worse thing about editing in Notion (and other editors where the syntax is hidden) is trying to adjust `mono-space text`. It always seems to get confused about whether I'm inside the mono-space area or outside it and I end up making stuff mono-space that shouldn't be or vice versa.
When I was young we lived in a cul-de-sac and after schools, and during the school holidays, children were a permanent fixture out in the street, kicking a ball around or riding their bicycles. There were no closures to cars and the drivers and kids were just cautious of each other. Now I’m the parent and we live in a very similar cul-de-sac there are never any children playing outside. I’d be quite happy for my son to play out in the street, but given there’s nobody out there, it’s understandably not very appealing for him. I don’t think the issue (here at least) is the vehicles, I think it’s a combination of the “stranger danger” mentioned in the article making parents afraid of letting their children out unsupervised and that other thing we all struggle with: screens. When I was a child there was far less to keep you entertained indoors. Now, with phones, games consoles and the internet, the options are endless. The lack of children playing outdoors is something my wife and I frequently lament, but I think the screens shoulder more of the blame than the cars.
I enjoyed reading Life Time by Russell Foster [1]. Professor Foster is the Head of Oxford’s Nuffield Laboratory of Ophthalmology and the founder and Director of the Sleep and Circadian Research Institute. In it he covers lots of aspects of sleep and ways to try and improve it.
Given the tone of this and other articles on the site I'd be inclined to suggest that _this was a joke_.
