I see where you're going, but this happen now where I live. All prices are with in 2p of each other in a 2 mile radius.

but travel around 5miles and it's typically 5-9p cheaper

no way can this make it worse for me - hopefully people will travel to punish the garages.

> this causes price convergence

aka competition

It can be more complex than that, sure for one person your comment makes sense

but if enough people use their time to go to the cheaper station further away, then they may force the closer garage to to reduce their price

either that or the close garage goes out of business and the one further away puts up the price because they can.

but still, it can be more complex

in reality there should be a legal minimum leg room that's based on the distance of the flight

the recline feature should be baked in to this as well

there's a few youtube channels that are nice to watch to get you more interested in electronics, my two favourite are:

Bigclivedotcom (nice, basic fun) : https://www.youtube.com/@bigclivedotcom/videos

Mend it Mark (more advanced) :https://www.youtube.com/@MendItMark/videos

thanks for clarifying,

my excessive procrastinating definitely overlaps with this (as I call it in project) meaningless bollocks. and I intentionally let people go on and on, until things stabilize. Endless meetings going around and around, discussing loads but coming up with nothing much

Mostly I put it down to education/ understanding - eg people need around 5-10 repetitions to understand stuff.

To combat this, I modify my documents and diagrams to show how simple things are, make sure all acronyms are explained properly (over and over again) and make 'solutions' into a "story" eg beginning, middle and end explaining how/ why / decisions.

Meaningless bollocks still exist, I let other people run around like headless chickens - I think people like the chaos and fun (well I try and make it fun)

yep, the same - I got shit marks, but I was very efficient at getting my shit marks

I hadn't realized there was a name for this! (i thought it's just procrastinating)

This what I do 90+% of the time, I work with my ADHD and put off doing as much as I can until the last minute. Then do weeks worth of work in hours.

To note: If you're thinking of doing this, be careful, it can be extremely stressful

Only do it on stuff you're good at or understand the implications if it goes wrong, because this method doesn't allow much time to change your mistakes.

If its something new i will not do this (or i'll break it down in chunks)

I was trying to think of an analogy

Kind of like wanting to learn how a car engine works and asking about fleet management in trucks/ lorries.

BGP is one of things I've learnt then forget the next day (multiple times)

"Art of Electronics - Horowitz and Hill."

very good recommendation, that book help me turn my studies in to reality

electronic circuit emulators will help with the basics as well (eg https://www.falstad.com/circuit/)

I had missed the collaboration list,

being tested on trains makes complete sense

Call me sceptical, but I suspect if this works very well it will be used in weapons.

Which then leads me to think the whole thing is a smoke screen, not sure why

I moved away from SysAdmin around 2010 and I worked with a fair amount of other techies and it really was the wild west in the stuff various people did with: sizeable production systems, Firewall rules (or lack of) network connectivity/ switches, and code changes

Get a cool tool from a magazine? yep just throw it on to production servers - no testing or letting people know what the hell they did (I got burnt a few times from people doing this!)

no change control, no documentation - just reverse the changes, if it doesn't work immediately - although some people never even made back ups of the previous files - crazy shit

why would an enterprise turn to IPv6?

everything fit's nicely in the 10.0.0.0/8 range

in my many decades of enterprise infrastructure, no-one has ever mentioned IP6 either.

why would they, whats the business case?

Chances are you'll need to start using different protocols (eg rs-485) to communicate over the long distance to numerous controllers that output the data to the LEDs.

The reason why people get "pedantic" about this stuff, is due the ability in the future to get screwed over when the priority blob owner start to charge money or other pull other license crap

I strive for my default state to be "content", with fleeting moments of happiness

really?

From my anecdotal evidence, is that it's fucking stupid and hated

retrospectively, could you have made some good money for your support?

Just checked and the cost for a (non aliexpress) seller ESP32-CAM dev board is around £5-£6 or less than £1 from aliexpress

I get music ALL the time from morning to night every day, there is only one way to turn it off and get peace and that's to get somewhat drunk

It can be the same song, but I can change it fairly easily

I'm highly likely AuDHD

it would be great if this could be modified to suit both colour blind and non colour blind people

I do agree, it depends on the context, eg talking to my family vs this forum

This site is not full of "normal people" and it shouldn't confuse people/ muddy the water if being dicussed here

>Put more simply: the modern internet doesn’t work without encryption

being pandantic that should read - the modern usage of the internet..

the internet does work ok without encryption, has it has done from a long time ago

I've been doing this for years, but it's hard work trying to get information on how bad these devices could spy on you - before you buy them

I just guess now and make sure the company has a good returns policy

this happens in the UK (called garden leave) but in my experience you're typically sent home with full pay

if you didn't debug, you'd have to wait a week and hope they'd print a correction

getting a bench engineer job fixing PCs (286/ 386) made PCs in to a hobby. it's was always (90%) the capacitors,

I'd fix PC's then play around with them - i still remember how badly incompatible conner and seagate HDDs where, that tried to share the same IDE cable

It was sometime ago (2018), but my host cancelled with 3hours to go

I will never use AirBnB again

it is depressing, for issues see the condition Seasonal affective disorder (SAD)

The light here looks really good, but the cheaper (less nicer) alternative is just a powerful (natural) LED light - search for SAD lights
