Some cities offer guides or services for native plants! https://sfpublicworks.org/services/plant-lists-and-palettes

It's even divided across the city's different climate zones (San Francisco is small, but can have huge differences in weather from one side to the other).

I recall a SoCal city even offering free consultation for native gardens.

With coherent detection I think the separation between eyes would allow for this.

Except that this problem doesn't specify distance between horseman, so I think it's a bit bogus

no need to resolve an individual person to be able to tell that they're there. And for hair color, if you make assumptions about the clothes being worn, you could perhaps infer color of hair, even if the hair isn't resolvable (a person being a "single pixel" would have a different hue depending).

Or, "the problem" is an uneducated electorate: https://www.insidehighered.com/news/government/politics-elections/2024/11/08/men-and-white-people-vote-differently-based-education

Whether this is due to "book smarts" or just a statement that going to college means you meet different people and generally expands your worldview, it seems to make a difference (men still more problematic than women, but less so when educated!).

Dipoles are, effectively, not

so if you have a charged bit and another opposite charged bit, while an inverse relationship might exist between either one, the net effect is that it drops off much faster.

The thing with gravity is it tends to go one way, unlike, say, charge.

We're in the market for a kid carrying ebike, and while REI makes the most financial sense, I think we'll be paying a visit to our LBS.

As an aside, I tend to prefer Sports Basement. Have had better luck with their bike department, too. No idea if they're better from a corporate standpoint though.

This is the real big brain hack with decibels

you can use a linear scale, it's just that the units are logarithmic instead.

(Yes I know most people would call a dB axis logarithmic, it's just a silly comment.)

My $4k piece of carbon and $3k hunk of titanium would like to have a word...

I would bet just about anything that the only reason profit margins could possibly be higher for a car is due to volume

which, if everyone rode bikes, wouldn't be an issue at all.

Absolute profit, sure

cars are more expensive, so they'll win out.

We still use leaded gas for aviation, as does (I believe) the EU (I'm guessing RoW, too).

(Supposed to be banned this year in the EU but AFAICT pushed back until 2032.)

Deja vu is usually a glitch in the Matrix. It happens when they change something.

You can have a lot of smart functionality and remain local-only (e.g., Home Assistant). All my smart devices are on their own VLAN with no Internet access

if something breaks it's not the cloud's fault, it's mine.

The lack of logic is astounding.

These are the same people who think abstinence only education works. Safe to say they're a few fries short of a Happy Meal.
