You'd probably have a trademark lawyer calling you up
Yeah, but how much I care is dramatically reduced if I'm dead (/s)
definitely better than "moving fast and crashing planes"!

The correct solution here is road engineering so that the natural speed of the road is slower, rather than artificially slowing down traffic via a posted limit. This can be done by adding curves or thinning the road

Observed. See. But no picture?

"Back in stock" - I'm still waiting on my 12 month delayed Kickstarter ;-)

Re:Mississippi is 37th state to legalize medical marijuana on Thursday February 03, 2022 @02:13AM (#30189618)
Pennsylvania seems to have started pushing towards that in the middle of last year:

"On Aug. 5, the Superior Court of Pennsylvania held for the first time that Pennsylvania's Medical Marijuana Act (MMA) allows an employee to sue his or her employer for taking an adverse employment action based on the employee's status as a certified user of medical marijuana."[1]

My household is 5 right up until any family come to visit, and then we'll be 7+ for potentially 2+ weeks

60 wpm == 1 hz
Pretty sure ravens aren't related to this discussion ;-)
"The resource footprint it takes to run Rezolus at this setting [At 10Hz sampling] is tiny, typically under 15% CPU"

It's a bit scary that they consider it OK to spend 15% CPU on all of their servers for telemetry!

Or, more interestingly in the US, you'll say "I please the fifth," and "I want to speak to my lawyer" and it won't be an issue.
Re:How to survive an open office on Thursday July 18, 2019 @10:16AM (#20469975)
Personally, I like opens spaces for small teams, so closed offices big enough for maybe 6-8 people, tops
Absolutely. The payload was apparently successfully delivered. The only issue they had was with the recovery of the heavy, which was, apparently, somewhat expected in this case.

Seems like the whole backend is down as meet.google.com isn't showing scheduled meetings either
Re:Terminal – The New Windows Terminal on Friday May 31, 2019 @02:39AM (#20058695)
I visited this fully expecting it to be another javascript terminal that runs in Electron and was pleasantly surprised to see a C++ project by Microsoft instead ;-)
Seems like the liability for damages caused needs to be replicated between the drivers and their hiring company, making it not worth ignoring signage like this
Re:Ask HN: How do you pay your remote team? on Tuesday April 16, 2019 @07:49AM (#19672827)
As a person not residing in the US, PLEASE don't send me a check, ever! I'd have to pay my bank to deal with the check, as well as sending it, via certified mail, to the bank's headquarters! This would end up costing me around EUR25.

ON the other hand, there are many free (or nearly free) ways to send money between accounts here in the Netherlands.

took about 22 seconds for me, but seemed to stall for about 5 seconds in the middle of loading :-P

These companies tend to donate returned mattresses straight from the customer's house rather than try to resell (against regulations in a lot of places)
