edit: reading further, grubhub auto-opts in the restaurants into this promotion. That's scummy, but also exists due to US auto opt-in. I believe in Europe, this wouldnt fly as they need you to explicitly opt-in, not explicitly opt-out after they implicitly opt-in. Scummy, but the american way
edit2: i think the verge, incorrectly reported in late march that restaurants "must" opt-in. from the perks program T+C. "Your participation in the Perks10 Program (the “Program” formerly known as “Supper for Support”) is optional. By electing to opt in each restaurant location identified to the Program, "
so 42% for both "advertising/marketing" (grubhub is providing the order to the restaurant). and delivery. If you link to grubhub from your restaurant's website. The advertising/marketing fee is waived
Holy shit, you weren't kidding, That was really something special https://jimedwardsnrx.files.wordpress.com/2009/02/pepsi_grav...
What is the alarm like? A beep every 10 seconds? I dont follow how a consistent sounds would not be recognized.
This seems to posit. Alarm is recognized by the brain, he then has enough time to have a conscious thought but then the ears arent passing the signal they've already received, (which triggered the wake up), to the brain to "hear" it?
Does this happen to anyone else? I've never heard of it before
Checking for an ID for someone getting a blue checkmark seems like an easy start though.
Again, do they do this by 50+mph ALL THE GODDAMN TIME?
>> If a machine does it once in a while, that's not a regression, that's the baseline.
If all the machines do it at once though? The impact of self-driving failing is a lot more than 1 person, typically.
Also, we dont know the rate of error. There are 1.2 Billion drivers in the world. 3.5 Billions smartphone users. Its safe to say 50% of drivers use GPS. So 600 Millions Drivers using GPS? There arent even 1 million Tesla's on the road yet and they are already having incidents.
would you be fooled by the attached image in my previous comment? If you were fooled, would your default action be to accelerate by 50mph, when no other drivers are?
I had to check if this was real or just a bit from the office that imprinted. Googling "humans drive into lake" only finds one incident. Which occured at midnight.[1]
and if you look at the research, they didnt convert it into an 8, they simply extended the middle part of the 3 a little bit [2]

I believe they came about as a result of the Online Travel Agencies (OTAs). The hotel doesnt have to split any of the resort fee with the OTA, unlike the the room rate.
Also, your summary hit the nail well but missed,
>A select group of faculty and staff, those identified as opinion leaders, are being offered all-expenses paid trips to the Walt Disney World Resort in Orlando “to gain first-hand insight into Disney’s approach to culture.”
Which makes the situation more insidious.
In 2005, the National Academies of Sciences published a pamphlet that expressed the viewpoint that “climate change” was a more scientifically comprehensive description of what was happening to the planet. “The phrase ‘climate change’ is growing in preferred use to ‘global warming’ because it helps convey that there are changes in addition to rising temperatures,” it said.[1]

The issue that seems to have developed is that towns are building commercial property, as it brings in sales taxes or payroll taxes which total a lot more than property taxes
EU - ~500 Million people. "In the EU, over 91,000 salmonellosis cases are reported each year." [1]
US. ~330 Million People. "CDC estimates Salmonella bacteria cause about 1.35 million infections, 26,500 hospitalizations, and 420 deaths in the United States every year. Food is the source for most of these illnesses." [2]

Im confused. With BART, once you are on the platform, you have scanned in and begun to pay. If you scan right back out in the same station, they charge you. If they have taken your money and you are somewhere you cant get to without paying, I think the "ride" has begun
Do you add extra baking powder or anything? I believe BP will slowly lose potency just not sure how fast
i have a cheaper rice cooker that isnt "non-stick" like the one pictured. May have to mix separately and then spray the pan.
Anyone made these like this before? Any tips, hints to look out for?
CA went up 3.71x and Florida did 7.77x.
Definitely grew compared to New york, but hardly sucking up people so fast
