Such a popular trick that it got a song written about it

Say what you want about BBEdit no longer being useful in the modern era, but whenever I have to work with a multi-megabyte file that my IDE chokes on, BBEdit can open it no problem.

nope, it has a REST API. https://developer.apple.com/documentation/weatherkitrestapi

I know people who are already using it in random python scripts and whatnot, e.g. https://sixcolors.com/post/2022/06/adding-apple-weatherkit-d...

MetroCard was also created and run by Cubic, nothing new here.

They did have it in Safari, and they took it out. There was a webkit bug open since 2015 asking them to put it back in, finally closed earlier this year.

Road Guy Rob did a video recently about a failed edge lane road experiment. Seems like a good idea to me as long as car traffic isn't too heavy.

most emission from ICE racing (at least in the high level series where they do a lot of traveling) is from the planes and ships that transport the team members and equipment, and I imagine that's the same for Formula E

JC resident who commutes to Manhattan here:

Most people aren't willing to switch trains to get to work.

Not true in NYC. Plenty of people change subways once or even twice to commute. Changing PATH to subway is no different except you have to pay twice.

you could probably take the ferry directly from downtown JC to LIC.

Currently there are no ferries that run this route directly. NY Waterway runs the Hudson River ferries, which the MTA (subcontracted out) runs the East River ferries. You could do this commute by ferry if you changed ferries at Wall St/Pier 11, but that point you might as well take the train.

And according to the Numberphile video (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OKhacWQ2fCs) there is a prior paper showing it for bases 2, 3, and 4

If only there were some way to Syndicate website updates to a centralized reader in a Really Simple way...

Blu-Tack doesn't harden, it stays sticky. It's used to attach posters to the wall and stuff like that. I wouldn't want to use it on the edge of a MacBook, it would just gather dust and grime, and would easily fall off.

As it is I hate how I can't talk ABOUT "ok google" around my phone... because it always goes off.

On several tech podcasts I listen to (http://atp.fm, https://daringfireball.net/thetalkshow/) they use fillers like "Yo, dingus!" to talk about alexa/hey siri/ok google

GOG has been selling current games in addition to the "good old games" for a long time now

That result is just the blog's page for November 2008, not the article page itself. So while that page _does_ have the article text on it, it is not the article itself.
