I'm pretty sure that NobodyNada knows this, but for pedants out there using Bb instead of A# is specifically a classical European music notation thing.
There's nothing wrong with using A# and plenty of other notations do. For a modern, hacker-y example, tracker notation only uses sharps).
Corporations will do anything they can get away with. Without consumer-friendly regulation I don't really see why all corporations _wouldn't_ eventually do this type of thing in markets like this.
I am NOT a "consumer". Those just buy buy buy, the same way locusts devour everything.
I am a "customer". I think about purchases, research if its sufficient, and will actively walk away if the deal is garbage.
At this time, all electric cars seem to be a DRM ridden hellscape, and/or a surveillance platform on wheels, and/or 100% remote control by mothership, and/or subscription hellscape (heated seats, better battery).
I'll take my ICE mostly mechanical cars thankyouverymuch, as they are more repairable.
You’re still a consumer, though. A single locust doesn’t wipe out thousands of acres on its own — it’s the swarm of individuals all buying (eating) “only what they need”.
Ideally build it in away from your house, as others have said, but in terms of actual safety systems:
-get a high quality BMS from a reputable source, it should supports current limits and thermal probes
- configure current limits with as much overhead as possible, the less you drive them, the cooler they'll stay
- make sure you have sufficient thermal probes inside key points in the pack(s) and that they're configured in the BMS to cut draw
- add thermal fuses as well, knowing where to put these is important, too
- house the packs so to minimize fire risk and cascading issues, especially if space is not a concern
In the language learning world there are some great tools already for adding content-awareness.
AnkiMorphs[1] will analyze the morphemes in your sentences and, taking into account the interval of each card as a sign of how well you know each one, will re-order your new cards to, ideally, present you with cards that have only one unknown word.
It doesn't do anything to affect the FSRS directly—it only changes the order of new, unlearned cards—but in my experience it's so effective at shrinking the time from new card to stable/mature that I'm not sure how much more it would help to have the FSRS intervals being adjusted in this particular domain.
If you really want to allow for another browser to authenticate a login request, you can at least limit it to sessions coming from the same IP.
That would let you authenticate your desktop browser from an email you opened on your phone if you're on your home network, but without becoming widely exploitable by phishers.
Most expensive homes yes, but that doesn't mean there aren't plenty of livable homes and apartments that are _empty_ at any given time. Canada has a lot of vacant houses.
That paper doesn't disprove my point. It indicates ~7% home vacancy, which means the total number of vacant homes is higher than the number of people without homes.
They replied to a comment about the bimetalic switch in this cooker with "I thought the circuit that powers the cooking was …".
While both you and they are correct that more modern devices work that way, that's not how this one works.
It's possible that they didn't miss that fact, but their comment reads as being a direct response to the discussion of the control circuit of the first rice cooker.
Well, I would have thought that once a temperature sensor reads 100 deg Celsius the clock would start. I'm sure there are good reasons why this wouldn't work well or is overly complex, but I would expect the article to discuss them.
From the article:
> Fumiko found that heating the water and rice to a boil and then cooking for exactly 20 minutes produced consistently good results.
That knowledge about the ideal timespan of 20 min seems to be completely irrelevant to the implemented solution.
> That knowledge about the ideal timespan of 20 min seems to be completely irrelevant to the implemented solution.
Partially. They also mentioned that it was generally believed that you needed to vary the temperature during cooking to get fluffy rice. Fumiko's discovery is just as much about the fact that you can use a straight boil the whole time as it is about the duration.
I'm not sure if you actually read their previous financial reports, but their expenses were somewhere around $50,000-60,000, that doesn't indicate an inflated dev budget.
If you add up server costs, the cheapest possible accounting and legal services, and any other miscellaneous business costs, it doesn't really leave much of a budget for development.
