Do people normally test-drive cars in the dark?

Being underwater does make it significantly easier, though the effect is fairly moderate in most humans: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diving_reflex

...Which is amusingly because the US is less strict at immigration/customs than most other countries. Since it lacks any exit controls, there's no need to segregate the international departures section of the airport, which has the side effect of meaning you have to enter the US to get to your connecting flight.

Wait, how do you play B♭♭ differently than A on the 19-TET keyboard? There isn't a separate key for that is there?

I've never had this happen on my 2017 Forester either in ~30,000 miles of highway driving with the adaptive cruise (the Subaru system is fully vision-based with no radar).

The one issue I've noticed is that it sometimes hits the brakes for cars that are obviously exiting the highway because a tiny sliver of the car is still technically in the driving lane, so I've learned to keep my foot over the gas pedal to override it in that case. The amount of braking isn't scary though, it's just annoying because there's no need to slow down at all.

I just took a stopwatch to mine and it spun for 10 seconds. In real life you would give it another whirl after a couple of seconds because it starts to slow down, but the short answer is clearly yes.

I'm also pretty new to JS but totally agree. Half my Python projects have zero dependencies (except for development tools which don't get packaged with the app) because everything I want is already in the standard library.

It feels like a quarter of the time I spend working on projects that use npm is spent debugging my toolchain because of excessive complexity or weird problems in random dependencies. Doesn't seem like it should be too much to ask that I can spend most of my development time working on actual code.

This is more or less the idea behind [Direct Primary Care](https://www.dpcare.org) – by turning primary care into a monthly subscription, you're encouraged to ask more simple questions to keep yourself in good health, and your doctor is encouraged to keep you healthy so you don't have to come in.

(Not affiliated with this movement and I don't even use it, just think it's a great idea.)

This exactly. Yesterday I needed to change my Touch ID settings and typed "Touch ID" into Spotlight search. First result: the dictionary definition of "Touch ID". Nowhere in the list: The System Preferences applet called exactly "Touch ID". Seriously?
