There are probably 50+ manufacturers that use Bosch motors/batteries, however e-bikes that use these components tend to be higher quality and considerably more expensive than VanMoof i.e. Riese & Muller, Canyon, Cannondale, Orbea

It's called burning bridges. Both domestically and internationally. It signals that Russia is committed to seeing the war through regardless of what the West does and it consolidates power domestically by discouraging any potential conspirators from acting against Putin since destroying the pipelines makes it virtually impossible for any replacement to resume delivery of gas to Europe

AFAIK, only one of the NS2 pipelines has been damaged. Both branches of NS1 are leaking but there has only been one reported leak on NS2

Can anyone confirm this update does not break VirtualBox on the mid 2011 Macbook Air i7? I rely on Vagrant and am not feeling confident enough to update since the issue appears to be related to VT-x on the CPU

There's a demo of Siri in the linked Vimeo presentation that starts around 8:00. It's pretty impressive

If you're lucky enough to be using PostgreSQL with pl/python, you can write your stored procs in Python

WSGI is fine if you're building short-lived, simple request/response style web apps but if you want to do any sort of async messaging, long-polling, or use websockets i.e. a modern web app - then it leaves a lot to be desired. Mongrel2/Brubeck appear to be designed with these considerations in mind.

I'm not certain but I think it was one of these

Misko's blog is brilliant and it is truly a shame he isn't posting as much as he used to

Or Pentadactyl - an improved fork of vimperator by it's most active developers. Probably the only thing keeping me from using Chrome as my main browser http://dactyl.sourceforge.net/pentadactyl/

I was in the same boat a few months ago and found this PyCon workshop by Jacob Kaplan-Moss extremely helpful

I've not used this app but this is definitely possible and has been covered in the literature. The final link is to a paper presented recently which actually proposes using a mobile phone for this.

Would be interesting to see what other information can be extracted from optical signals. Tricorders can't be that far off now.

If I were to recommend only one Java book, it would be this one. Definitely deserves to be on the list.

I have no idea who Dave Paola is. I saw it posted over on coder.io and I thought it might be of interest

Sybase is still quite popular in the investment banking world. GS is a big enough client that their ASE 12.5 installations are still being supported despite it officially being EOL for everyone else...

Yes, carbocation is correct, we are in agreement. The mainstream media still refuses to acknowledge their complicity in all of this. When all of this was going on in the UK, MMR scare stories were front page news but not once did I see a headline on the cover of newspaper proclaiming "MMR Hoax, Sorry My Bad" says . As Goldacre says, it's crazy to think that one man created this entire mess.

I was just about to post that link but you beat me to it. It's more than a little unfair that Wakefield is being blamed for the MMR scare when the mainstream media in the UK did everything they could to fan the flames yet remain for the most part innocent
