A good example, especially if you are interested in any facet of video imaging, is [0] and here is why: 1) it provides standards references, 2) it provides usable first approximations you can execute right away to verify them, 3) its examples are well-selected. Since my company supports about the most conservative industry on Earth, we have to convince layers of bureaucrats we know what we are doing and the concepts therein helped us do it. We will not necessarily buy the company's products, but they certainly gave us some ability to attach numbers to what was a bit hand-wavy. In return the company is now 'of interest'.
mostly straightforward, but a question: should you use 'Antigua and Barbuda' as the country question would you have it as V__V_VV/V__/_V__V_V ? The rules are easy to get used to through the intro but edge cases may get odd.
That's my metric. A VF display is OK but an LCD, especially on kitchen appliances or white goods, is just about a guarantee of a short life span - never mind a touchscreen.
so long as a man rides his HOBBY-HORSE peaceably and quietly along the king's highway, and neither compels you or me to get up behind him,--pray, Sir, what have either you or I to do with it?" - Laurence Sterne
Reminds me of 'countdown roulette': system managers have buttons to slap if they want a launch hold. About the time batteries are initiated ("squibbed") a number of those buttons get pushed but the earliest of the bunch is the one who gets the blame for the hold.
It's hard to know what to mourn more here: the subsumption of NSU into Volkswagenwerke AG, or the demise of Citroën in the USA. Both manufacturers had genuinely fresh ideas; both provided truly mold-breaking machinery.
Guardian is behind the times. Languedoc, Roussillon, and Midi-Pyrénées have been subsumed into a region now called Occitanie. Bordeaux lies in Nouvelle-Aquitaine. And the statistics [0] show it isn't even close: Occitanie raises 2.5 litres of wine for every litre from Nouvelle-Aquitaine.
It is beyond dispute that the value of the wines are different. Bordeaux' wines are on average much better than Minervois', but wine lakes are the province of Occitanie.
The article says Ive's consultancy contributed the power/ speed control button and the hinges. It isn't as though they let him play with anything important.
GrapheneOS has implemented storage and contact scopes. Users can set a program's permitted storage environment. Similarly, contact scopes allows users to limit access to contacts that are tagged with a keyword. On my phone the 'special' contact group includes Djimn Hovnbg, with a number in Egypt, Blin Futtum'ch with a UK number, and so on.
Could be but my understanding is the D stands for débrouiller (se débrouiller = take oneself out of the fog). Kind of like the American "National Awareness Day" where people are encouraged to extract their heads and take note of the people in their surroundings.
Brilliant. Apart from Freeling's "The Kitchen Book / The Cook Book" système D appears throughout French culture including the record "Système D" by Les Rita Mitsouko. It stands there encouraging those who get it to understand and overcome despite one's being knee-deep in sewage.
Reminiscent of '1984' is this tendency to bowdlerize art some people find offensive. It is literally editing the past, and it is a danger because someone is deciding what is to be edited, and it is probably not you or I.
Yup. I lost any respect for Vero Beach, Florida police when they used a pretextual stop - dim, not missing, license plate light - to ask that they search my car. I'm a dull SOB but that pushed the wrong button and I declined. With all the foofaraw those clowns wasted 45 minutes of my life.
That is due to a species of yeast called Brettanomyces, usually shortened to brett. Judicious use of brett can impart smoky or leathery characteristics - lumped together politely as "barnyard" or "horse blanket" notes in beer or wine.
Amazon's losing it, here and there, on price as well. Their price for my cat's l-lysine supplement is 3/2 what it is from a well-known pet stuff supply. The price for my new sunglasses was matched by the manufacturer which also ships faster.
That sound from the Citromatic used to be called 'boinking' and it is inescapable unless the fluids and seals are up to snuff. Citroën hydraulics are detailed but not that complex, patience + Viton aftermarket seals (green fluid = hexylene glycol) are your friends.
Agreed that the ID (idée)-19 had a lot of advantages from its simplicity.
An expert will, left to themself, set the stage by explaining the conditions under which their conclusions apply, and the assumptions made. That is completely antithetical to the sound-bite-oriented media environment.
Expertise doesn't work out of context, and as the amount of information one copes with increases so does the necessity of setting it forth. That is part of the problem of successive boiling-down of e.g. Powerpoints.
Why is it that Marriott seems to be over-represented in this kind of issue? One doesn't see Hilton or Intercontinental involved in shafting their guests.
That's probably right, though I wonder whether facts impacting Florida's tax burden wouldn't be exposed by e.g. the Miami Herald - and whether it would matter.
This is how Desantis' habit of coming in fast, loud and stupid will carry him out of politics. It will be a hell of a show when six million Florida households find themselves liable for 1.0e9 worth of bonds and Desantis says "oops".
There is an Australian version of this link: http://gutenberg.net.au . There are quite a few books there that are not in gutenberg.org because the Aus. version observes Australian copyright law. You won't find much R.A. Freeman, for example, in the parent but almost his entire œuvre can be found on the Aussie site.
Unlike eucalypts in Australia, in California and Hawai'i nothing eats them. Tasmanian bluegum is the most common eucalypt in that range [0]. Therefore a) they grow very rapidly, and b) are useless as structural or furniture woods. The Berkeley Hills "Tunnel" fire of 1991 [1] was driven in large measure by the presence of eucalypts. In much of northern California today, eucalypts are seen as large flammable weeds.
