sometimes they go in packs together with "blanks" so that in total they provide similar voltage as 3xAA

How do you know what styling the project needed? What styling requires a button to stop being a button?

IGH are not much more complicated than SS.

Thanks, although I am hobbyist bike mechanic, I never heard of Coasting before. Frankly, doesn't sound very attractive - a complicated (proprietary) automatic gear system relying on functioning (proprietary) front hub dynamo... All that to address a practically non-existing problem: no one really has a problem learning how to use bicycle gears.

Now that camera costs ~$100[0].

That makes it mostly good then.

They have something Asian about them. Not that this is good or bad per se, but I wonder if they work equally well everywhere.

Although I am fascinated by _why's personality and his art, I think this book is partly to blame that Ruby is not as popular as it could (and should) have been. It somehow embodies that proto-hipster vibe the Ruby community used to have at the beginning, which alienated a lot of potential users. Luckily I managed to overcome that initial hurdle (the Pickaxe book helped a lot), but a lot of (good) developers I know haven't, and lots of them stayed with ASP (and its later offspring) and PHP.

That's ridiculous. The legislators don't have any reason (except being bribed by car industry) to encourage people to use cars instead of more human-friendly modes of transport.

Also, if people are riding bikes on the pavement, it's a clear signal that they don't have a safe alternative.

To justify the $1400.

I like it too, but with that price, I'm definitely not a target group. It's a nerdy device with a luxury price.

That's exactly the point of 5G, if I understand it correctly.

Sorry, you are conflating two things: placement and design. OP hasn't changed the placement of the cargo pants pockets. For me as a proverbial user, the interface didn't change. The implementation details did. Don't get me wrong, I like the approach OP took, but this is basically an iteration on cargo pants design, by making them more socially acceptable.

Thanks, my cargo pants really needed that self-esteem boost.

Certainly sounds like an attack. As if someone can't wear cargo pants simply for their utility or, god forbid, find them actually aesthetically appealing.

Or that you simply have different aesthetic criteria. When did fashion start being axiomatic?

Yes, coincidence of reinventing the wheel. They reinvented cargo pants with pockets going inside instead outside. The purpose of the two is exactly the same: storing things. I don't care who invented cargo pants and who started wearing them first. I'm neither a pilot nor a soldier, nor am I pretending to be one, but I find them super convenient.

Which is a red flag on its own.

There are thousands of gems out there which either offer some functionality not in Rails, or replacing/extending some that is (typical example being rspec). Vanilla means no (too many) gems on top of Rails.

It's been some decades since I watched Visitors, but isn't that basically a Czechoslovakian take on Doctor Who?

I know, but it as close to maximize as it gets. That's not my point, but that the behavior has changed dramatically.

IIRC the green button was "zoom", meaning it should adapt the window size to the window content, which in most of the cases resulted with maximizing.

Well, as an occasional MacOS user, it still pisses me off when I discover that maximize button is in fact full screen button.

The price is probably double.

Regular use of (e)bikes within a city can make people sell their cars, and use other means of transport for occasional longer rides. Since I replaced my car with a bike, I also spend much less time in a car on the highways.

> less likely you are to truly gain any efficiency across the system

Urban sprawl is part of the problem and should be addressed at the same time.

It's not much different than using "cat > filename" on any modern *nix, which is very well used to this day.

Because the development itself has changed immensely. The closest experience today is probably the one of developing for Arduinos.

Also: deep disregard for rules and well-being of other human beings. Traffic accidents are eighth leading cause of death globally.
