Could this cause a natural occurrence of resonance cascade?
Google's estimation for my country is always less than what is achievable if you stick to the speed limit. I guess they calculate it based on other drivers.
Re:Ask HN: How much do developers earn in Europe? on Thursday August 24, 2017 @06:20AM (#15088894)
Why did you focus on EU only? What about Norway, Switzerland, Iceland, Serbia, FYROM, Albania, Bosnia & Herzegovina?
Re:How to Write a Git Commit Message (2014) on Friday March 17, 2017 @05:16AM (#13892603)
My team uses task number and title as a commit message. We just can't fit all the description from task into one line of comment. So, when we look at git blame - we get a reference to a task in project management tool where we can find all the reasons behind a given change.

If there are more commits for the same task, all of them bare the same commit message. After each review, we add a comment to project management tool. That way we focus only on newer commits when performing another round of reviews.

Every other attempt to describe changes and intentions in one line seems doomed to me.

Introducing mandatory charges for tweeting will probably hurt their user base and they'll lose some value. But they could always make a combined approach, having first 5 to X tweets per month for free.

Maybe you are NSA and you say "All your data are belong to US", as discovered by Snowden.
Re:Introducing the Firefox debugger.html on Wednesday September 14, 2016 @04:59PM (#12501171)
This reminded me of Timeless debugger that I heard of over here on HN (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=11385241): http://qira.me/

Having all the states and being able to see execution in the past blows my mind. Every debugger should support this.

Re:Switzerland to vote on banning banks from creating money on Tuesday December 29, 2015 @07:08AM (#10806330)
In Yugoslavia all deposits were blocked at one point. You couldn't withdraw your own money from the bank. So, it's not the same which country are you living in.
