Seems reasonable and closer to American averages than I would have expected.
Yes, well over a hundred iirc that the US can requisition on day one of a conflict. America still leads here. Worth noting that, outside of WW2, the US has never really had a large merchant fleet.
Good article but, like a lot of stategic studies pieces, grossly underestimates what the American industrial base is capable of. 1. The US is second in the world, behind Ukraine, in military drone production. 2. The US…
Bought a TI dev board with c7x and c66 dsp cores. Have it doing PEQ and FIR room correction, along with tube amplifier emulation. Will be trying to implement a virtual bass array next.

They’re just about dead even. Maybe slightly higher. Not unreasonably higher. Inflation is a pain in the rear.
A Big Mac meal in the states (fried and drink) cost 2.99 USD in 1990. It now costs around 8.50 USD. The inflation adjusted value of 2.99 USD in 1990 is about 7.88 USD. Did the price go up? Sure. Are you likely getting…
This. It’s ugly. All of talk about the technical merits or demerits misses the point. I can spout of a dozen or more memorized IPv4 addresses. IPv6? Good luck.
It's a very US-centric perspective to assume that density = cities. Almost every town in the US, at one point, was dense enough to support a vibrant main street. Many (most?) of them even had tram lines and other forms…

The Swiss public transport system is a century-plus old at this point. Compare pictures of the Zurich tram system in the early 20th century with today - squint your eyes and you won't notice any difference. That said,…
East coast cities were built before modern building codes. Something that, for some reason, people in the states don't want to accept is that - when given the choice - the vast majority of people prefer living in dense…
The same way people in every other country do it (rental vans) Rail <-> Road isn't an either or issue. It wasn't in 1850 and it isn't today. The only difference, at least in the US, is that poorly designed government…

Completely agree. I don’t see why people view this as an either or decision. Also worth mentioning that some paid MCP providers offer an actual value added. Sure, I can use curl or a self hosted crawler for web…

Langstrasse is as close to a red-light district as you'll find in Zurich. It's gotten a lot better over the last couple of years, but stating that you were offered drugs there is like being offended that you walked past…
"waiting at a bus stop in Langstrasse" -> what were you expecting?

Contrarian here. I've fell in love with Firefox's AI Chatbox sidebar. It's extremely helpful to have Gemini immediately available to help with translating and summarizing text.
Reintroduction of phonics has been pushed - hard - by academia.
