* lots of redundant prose * vaguely incoherent temporal claims * outdated coverage of Southwest * formatting usage of bullet lists and random bolding smells a lot like an O3 "deep research" report * unnamed author
They should AirBnB these units out. this guy creates a whole new revenue stream for Caltrain. This story is pretty crazy, this guy built not one but two secret livable apartments with bathrooms and kitchens inside…
there seems to be an error in the headline – Cali is a city in Colombia, but the article is about California?
The Lufthansa pilot was like the guy who drives the Google bus in the carpool lane at the speed limit, slower than the cars in the other lanes.
> It is a very American problem This is laughable, as North America has the lowest chargeback rate of all the global regions. This is just biased and ignorant anecdata. > It is only a problem in a society with a high…
According to Merchant Risk Council survey data[1], in 2021, friendly fraud in Europe was 1.3% (of transactions), 1.6% in Latin America, and 1.5% in APAC. In North America it was only 1.0%. So, it's actually a smaller…
This is exactly correct, and the parent's suggestion that the risk of chargebacks is something like 0.001% is WAAAAY off. Like, by orders of magnitude off. Any business that processes credit card transactions at scale,…
The actual risk of a merchant not receiving money for a credit card transaction is quite high. Chargebacks are enough of a business problem that many large retailers have whole teams only devoted to processing and…

Well, except for the 14 diphthongs and the fact that /e/ and /o/ are more like /ɛ/ and /ɔ/ in certain closed syllables. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spanish_phonology#Vowels
It is unclear which definition of "San Francisco" they are using. Is it just the city of San Francisco, the San Francisco-Oakland-Hayward, CA Metropolitan Statistical Area, or the San Jose–San Francisco–Oakland, CA…
I call BS on the "don"/"dawn" isogloss on the SF peninsula. If it ever did exist, it certainly doesn't anymore. There are no cultural or social groupings along that isoglass that would justify how that line is shaped.…
There is literally nothing in this list that is in Silicon Valley.
There is such a thing as linguistic prescription, but there isn't really such a thing as "prescriptive linguistics". There are linguists, who study and describe language, and then there are people who promulgate their…
Can't wait for version 1.2.3!
... so 'macrology' means "use of macros" rather than "long and tedious talk without much substance"? Is this usage specific to Clojure, or to all languages that have macros? It seems like a pretty bizarre repurposing of…
> "these transformers were never exposed a la carte, instead being encapsulated by the macrology of reducers." What does 'macrology' mean in this context? Is this a common usage? Or a novel application of a word that…
