Would definitely try next time I buy a hardcover :) But I think this first opening rule must be some US quirk. I only see US sources for it on internet, and can't find German or Russian one

That's sure can't be true for "modern" (as in 1960s+) books? Bookstores normally allow to look inside hardcovers without being instructed on proper handling first

Can this stuff autorotate? You could also take emergency parachute with you (~5kg), would require flying at least at 500ft or something to be able to deploy it

I think trains are ok with trees. I checked satellite view - there are a lot of rail tracks in Chicago going directly along tree lines. The rail yards indeed look like tracks on concrete with nothing else, but when I look at German ones - there are trees and bushes.

Pretty sure it was not about presence of visible borders, but about missing spacing between borders and buttons. That on some screenshots, but not others. It's not like this ui has some high-density philosophy, it's just very inconsistent

I have a problem with many fellow cyclists here in Germany, because they seem to use something that shouldn't be street-legal as bicycle lighs (very annoying in the night on unlit road)
Not sure what UK drivers would say about that, though

Lets say its 2001 and you are writing some hot e-commerce stuff in plain php. You want to filter data depending on multiple fields in the submitted form. If some field is there, you add one more "AND" clause to the "WHERE", like this: if (isset($_POST['product'])) { $query .= "AND product = " . $_POST['product']; }. So in order not to check every time if the added clause is the first one you start with "WHERE 1=1 ", as "WHERE AND ..." would not work.
