The water source is also a factor if you're using a portable drum mixer. One batch from a well can be quite different from another batch from a treated water system or a running creek.

EDIT: kids, don't pour fuel into a generator right along a creekside without a funnel or care for the enviroment (~25 minute mark of that video)

Similarly, I've lived in low-lying, high moisture land areas where local authorities were extremely strict about people needing to use only approved footing plans. I've also lived in forested areas with strict codes and rules on fire mitigation and prevention, so tree and scrub proximity was a very serious concern.

In places like North America where strict building codes are enforced, there are three important factors that should concern everyone who is thinking of not properly consulting and building to those specifications:

1. Inspectors and authorities will act against your non-codeworthy plans and builds; maybe today, maybe tomorrow, maybe after a few years. Perhaps they'll level a fine, perhaps they'll order the complete demolition of it by their own appointed workers or contractors, at your own expense.

2. Insurers will never pay out for damages caused to or by your non-codeworthy builds. It is the perfect excuse for them to not pay out. It doesn't matter whether your design has qualities that you can demonstrate are equal or superior to officially recognized standards, you lose.

3. If someone is injured or dies on your non-codeworthy project, you'll fail a ton of personal injury and other legal challenges at your own expense.

Canada's shipping ports have had rat infestations for hundreds of years, even up the Great Lakes. DNA studies show that once a local population became established long ago, it defended itself repeatedly from incursions, and carries on. Alberta has no sea ports, so rats hitch rides there on trains, trucks, and in packaging. The scale is much, much smaller, so Alberta is somewhat able to eradicate them.

Registrees and users of Raspberry Pi Connect have been emailed a notice of changes to the Terms Of Service that include these troubling UK GDPR-based updates:

  -   Schedule 1 (Acceptable Use Policy):
  Introduces guardrails in respect of acceptable
  use. It also defines what constitutes a
  Security Event—such as introducing
  vulnerabilities, network scanning, etc. It also
  prohibits using the service to view or stream
  high-risk data.
  
  -   Schedule 2 (Data Processing Schedule):
  Codifies our respective privacy roles under the
  UK GDPR and the Data Protection Act 2018.
  Raspberry Pi acts as a “mere conduit” for
  encrypted session data, guarantees that visual
  feeds are never stored or inspected in a
  decrypted format, and locks down metadata log
  retention to a strict 90-day deletion cap.
  
  Additionally, the new terms reinforce that they
  apply in addition to the Raspberry Pi General
  Terms and Conditions and shall prevail
  regarding your use of Connect in the event of
  any conflict.

Like it says on the tin, alleged.

This really jumped out:

''Marketers chose the “thwack” slogan after consulting an AI tool for suggestions, Shinsegae Group said. It turned out some managers who approved the campaign never opened the email attachments showing the marketing material.

The company pulled the campaign within hours, but the fallout was swift and the chief executive was sacked the same day.''

Replace ''dupe'' with ''related'' as you've done in the past.

The topic is the same, but the links are not dupes. Check this out:

I found the piece quite lovely. Proof that clickbait titles existed long before the Internet.

No wait...

Lots of discussions now, from different source articles:

The Guardian's coverage of music and arts culture is also worthy of top billing:

My opportunity to use that old joke only knocked once.

He's in Canada, where the average seems to be between $37k and $111k according to several search engine hits.

Is it legally or ethically much different than the old "Sorry, but Quinn wasn't authorized to make such a deal..." escape excuse for human sales agents by their human sales managers?

I wonder if it uses Opporknockity strings, the ones that only tune once?

I've been in and out of MapComplete since this arrived on HN and have not had any such problems.

I've occasionally used the CoMaps OSM editing capability to just get the basics in before doing the big work in JOSM, or more likely the web editor. Now I'll be looking into MapComplete much further.

CBC's clickbaity title aside, the findings show that with Facebook Content Monetization:

''There are two beneficiaries of this. One is the grifters who are monetizing. They are engaged in this activity because it is financially profitable for them,'' said Aengus Bridgman, director of the Media Ecosystem Observatory at McGill University in Montreal. ''The other is the platform itself... the ad revenue monetization around the attention that they're getting.''

Unfortunately, those grifters have chosen a particularly loaded political topic in Canadian current events on which to flood those who are easily persuaded by online slop.

NTSC's rate was 29.97 and its lesser line count made images seem blurry to those who were used to PAL and SECAM. Folks viewing PAL after NTSC felt that the flicker caused eye fatigue.

PAL's lower frame rate made for visible flicker, which viewers conditioned to NTSC could wearily detect.

Going way back, in Canada the jokes were:

NTSC = ''never twice same colour''

SECAM = ''système électronique pour confondre les americaines.''

That's ''diabetes''

See Minitel from France and Telidon from Canada as other examples of data systems riding on analogue TV and/or POTS telephone systems.

The same author dabbled in a similar project, so maybe there's a Teletext over ham radio tie-in possible?
