V4 motorcycles are my favorite sounding bikes! Also arguably the best engine configuration for bikes as well. 3 of the 4 manufacturers in MotoGP use v4s and they sound amazing.

Same! This page gave me a really uncanny feeling of stress.

How do you deal with the bus factor as a B2B? I lost a few larger contracts because customers would not risk making a one person business a core part of their workflow.

    floats = [float(v) for v in integerList]

or less idiomatic

    floats = map(float, integerList)

Not sure if it's true in this case but in many cases charging double and halving your customer base is a win I think.

Great summary, thanks (assuming it's accurate!).

I think you missed the entire point of the article? Camping/hiking/exploring outdoors is the exact opposite of doing nothing.

"there were a few very high profile ones"

The absolute number (or fraction) implemented in C is less important than the high profile ones. numpy/scipy alone are used in a huge number of projects so if you can't support those two libraries alone it's pretty much a non starter.

Same. I only have a small handful of contacts that use Signal and I'll probably just switch back to using Messages. Secure when possible was a killer feature.

Minor correction, provinces don't have prime minister's they have premier's.

If you're struggling with brushing your teeth,showing up to work or other basic self care, then I don't think the discipline to exercise will manifest itself and it is likely time to speak with a professional.

This advice is repeated a lot, but motivation is fleeting and you just have to make it part of your routine in the same way that brushing your teeth, showering, paying your bills, cleaning your house, and so on are.

If it helps, you can think of it like "going to work". Very few people are lucky enough to feel any sort of intrinsic motivation to show up at work every day, but they do so because of the consequences are disastrous if they don't. The analogy isn't perfect since the long term consequences of ignoring your health are farther in the future, but the upside is that after exercise you get shorter term feedback in improved mood, sleep, concentration etc. You just need to show up and do the work.

Great answer thank you!

"Also be wary of the formerly South, now built-in migrations stuff. It's built around a fragile model (perfect history representation), so has lots of foot guns."

My experience has been opposite so I'd be interested in hearing your experiences if you are willing. I have been using the built in migrations since day 1 on a medium sized Django project with 350+ migrations and migration issues for our project have been exceedingly rare. edit: We have a small team of developers, so merge migrations are very rare for us, which might be a contributing factor.

> If the second glass of water has no salt in it, then salt will start crossing the membrane and equalising the salt levels in both glasses.

Is that correct? Normally in osmosis water will cross the membrane to equalize concentration of ions right?

I've tried in past but always found the vim modes to be a bit lacking. My last attempt was probably 6 or 7 years ago though so maybe worth another shot!

Yes! Having regional undo is super useful sometimes. I switched from emacs to vim a long time ago, but still miss this feature (although not enough to go searching to find an equivalent vim plug in I guess). Lazy web?

In Canada at least we can buy shell off pumpkin seeds in bulk (salted or plain) but they're usually sold as "pepitas". Whole pumpkin seeds are just called "pumpkin seeds". Both taste good!

I'm aware of some of the history of the Pinkerton's but what is the connection to this story?

Same. Too bad as I recently spent a couple of days motorcycling through Kentucky and there were some beautiful parts of that state.

"Pretty cheesy" might be a bit of an understatement but it's a good companion to the TOTW2 book.

+1 great Doc

Not to mention Tornado is a very popular open source Python web server.

Things are improving, but non-conformity to the DICOM spec by some vendors is quite common. I regularly encounter DICOM files that don't even have the 128byte preamble or 4byte `DICM` prefix.

The lack of communication from Rogers for an event of this magnitude is quite something. Three tweets[0] with zero useful information so far today. The first one not coming until ~4 hours after the interruption started.

> ongoing for over six hours now

Closer to 12 hours now I think. Certainly it was out at 7am EST this morning when I woke up.

This is the one that immediately sprang to mind for me too. Hype around it was huge and then seemed to die away pretty quickly.

That looks pretty nice too although the angle of it concerns me a bit. I use a standing desk so it looks like it might require me to bend my wrists backwards a bit more than the Orbit. I might give it a try though.

I'm similar. I prefer a symmetrical trackball so I can alternate hands and give the other hand a rest. I have been happily using a Kensington Orbit [1] for many years now. It has a scroll ring surrounding the track ball which I also really like. Absolutely love this trackball!
