The article links to the Tree Equity Project (https://uk.treeequityscore.org/map) which has pretty detailed measures for London. Some very central areas do go as low as 2-3%, but they are probably the exception rather than the rule.
because they want people to trust them and continue to use their services. being a shitty business to deal with will eventually bite them, its not like they are the only choice.
Apologies should never have if attached to them.
You see it a lot with politicians "I apologies if I offended anyone" etc. Its not an apology at that point, the if makes it clear you are not actually apologetic.
I can’t reply to zugzug underneath (is there a maximum comment depth), but it feels pretty obvious that the US President is a very legitimate target in any war with the US. Maybe the most legitimate target.
Good luck trying to get them though.
This is not why imgur have left though, they didn't want to comply with Data Protection laws.
I confirm I will never buy a Samsung fridge.
Its also not true.
I don’t think you can judge the final battery implications or whether it runs smoothly from the Developer Preview, they often have significant bugs.
My impression from the internet is that the US is particularly weak on this - people talk about tickets for DUIs like it's not a big deal.
In the UK you get a minimum 12 month ban, an unlimited fine (which are based on income and have been quite big in the past (Dec of Ant and Dec got an £86000 fine). I don't think this approach is uncommon in Europe.
I really like my HomePods and have had zero issues.
Siri is not smart, but plays music, sets timers and turns off lights just fine, and that’s all I want.
It's not a machine, it's just a new drill bit that cuts a hole.
Soft power is an undervalued thing that is hard to build.
It's hard to quantify how much the US benefits from promoting (what was previously) its values in other countries.
I bet its more than the $40m (or, to put it in perspective, 12 cents per citizen) that this list adds to.
Randomly destroying things without actually understanding why they are important is a very short term view on reducing waste. Fixing things if/when they go wrong is going to be expensive.
The interesting thing isn't that they've factored a 22-bit number, the interesting part is that they've done it with quantum annealing - obviously factoring 22-bits is easy!
I've got no idea of what is actually said in the paper (it is in Chinese) - there was a little bit of discussion on it a couple of days of days ago here: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=41810563
FWIW, I never ran out of battery with my Apple Watch. Charging it was part of my routine.
I changed to a Garmin this year (started to do ultra marathons) and I've run out a couple of times because I just don't remember to charge. Especially when using GPS and bluetooth audio with it massively bumps up power consumption (which felt less like the case on the Apple Watch)
Still prefer the Garmin, but just saying that I don't think battery life is the huge feature that people think it is.
Your app is my favourite Mac app.
