I'm disappointed you went with FI, the L28 is wonderful, if I was you I'd be tempted to swap the EFI for carbs, I expect the carbs for the L's 24 and 26 would suit?

Any word on how much the Nismo head will be, the OS Giken one is absolutely eye-watering.

I like to think they're just looking out for us after the government implied the OBR was untrustworthy.

>Eurocrats/Anglocrats pout their chests, proclaim proudly how "free" and "democratic" they are

That's weird, I've never met a single one since we don't even have a constitution to enshrine civil liberties.

>The engineering staff got quartered and the sales staff tripled, QA was fired

A tale as old as time.

> Duralex already went bankrupt several times and they are heading for it again. What's in the article is nice but it's charity not business so unfortunately I am not optimistic.

Everyone can rally round in their time of need but that doesn't change the fact that Duralex was struggling to begin with, and once this goodwill windfall dries up they'll be back here.

Agreed, I'd say it's on par with:

"

What? So now any test the government mandates is an unfunded mandate? Like food tests?

This is obviously getting way to political because none of the arguments are making any sense, and are completely disconnected from reality.

I don't even consider myself pro regulation but this is just the equivalent of putting your fingers in your ears and shouting LALALALALALA.

you'll be more at home over on https://www.reddit.com

cool, more chromium/electron slop.

or at all, but when they're higher than you, or climbing a hill a casual blinding is unavoidable with the current laser-based headlights.

I do, and old school yellow high-beams were plenty on a 205 to do 80+mph down b-roads back in the 00's, I would happily go back to that if it meant I could avoid being blinded every ten minutes.

I like photography doubly so as a craft, and forgive me if a heavily shopped stacked comp isn't making my heart quicken.

>It’s enough to make us poor wordsmiths question our blessings.

I support AI replacing any professional writer who unironically refers to themselves as a wordsmith.

"the market will stay irrational longer than you can stay solvent" He's a clever man, and maybe the bubble will burst, and when it does there will inevitably be some hugely profitable short positions held by a new generation of Michael Burrys who will lose capital and reputation taking a premature short position on the subsequent major bubble.

as a proud Londoner I'd like to see him held accountable for his own lies and questionable behaviour.

Cronyism is inevitable at scale, the UK's digital ID scheme is an obvious recent example.

>the penalties can be more than a slap on the wrist

Because they are not intended to be punitive, they are designed to be extractive as an optional and arbitrary revenue stream.

>Ok, so it can cause some brain damage.

Can't believe they'd turn down the opportunity to get more voters.

Ocaml is one of the few languages I think you either really like or really don't.

the opposite, the ubiquity of burnt mud in every office coffee warmer seems to have dulled the American palate, that or the over abundance of artificial ingredients in everything, to the extent that they simply cannot discern what good coffee is, because it's either that or coffee that looks like the water from a particularly detail oriented miniature painting session; scant colour, scant aroma.

I will admit of course that the French seem to enjoy charcoal, and when in my teens I worked as at a shop the beans that were left too long in the roaster were usually marked as "French Roast"

it's stochastic, our tastes grow as we do, a stale mars bar is sufficient for a child, where a small square of 80+% dark single origin might be the evolution of that taste over thirty more years.

I was raised a snob by chefs, my snobbery extends to all areas of my life in the hope that I might find reason enough to stay.

>Meanwhile I can wander down the street in the US and find better sourced and roasted beans than I could find anywhere in europe.

You must know the place you live very well, I was excited to try coffee in New York when I lived in Manhattan given it was essentially responsible for popularising the current trend in western coffee culture. I had many local coffee snobs directing me to places all over the city and I found only a single shop that I could bear, even then it would've been average to poor in London or Berlin, and worse still in my colleague's native Melbourne.

Blue Bottle was the biggest let down of all, since at the time it was hyped to all hell.

Academically the answer is obviously yes since they are all abstractions on the same instruction set.

Smells like Reddit in here

God forbid they try to save a bit of money, got a better suggestion?

it's probably trained off my repos then

I too am an apostate, however the post has gone a long way to encouraging me back into the fold, couldn't find my old .emacs when I had a quick look yesterday, dread starting again but maybe that's a meditation in itself.

take it up with the fundamentalists, I'm a Mac Emacs user.
