It does if you click on one of the graphs at that point.

I used to do this and then stopped once I switched to Linux where selecting text put it on a clipboard automatically.

I suspect it's related to some patterns when reading books, like putting a bookmark below your current line and moving it down, or following your current position with your finger.

Nice find. From some other quick research, if there is a violation, you have to report it to Visa via phone or mail.

Looks like they used to have an online form a several years ago, but it went missing. Various blog/forum posts indicate that most people have had no luck getting any sort of response from Visa via mail.

Got a citation on this? I'd love for it to be true, since it'll save me a lot of effort. But WSJ, for instance, requires you to cancel via phone even if you sign up online.

It's there now (with a timestamp of 2 hours ago), but /r/google isn't what I would consider a good barometer of what's important or popular news. It's larger than I expected at ~77k subscribers, but contrast with /r/android at ~623k subscribers, and it does not show up frequently on the first dozen pages of /r/all in my experience.

Vehicle and person hits cause exceptional delays, but not significantly more so than the string of breakdowns in February. They apologized for this, and seem to have fewer rush hour problems, so maybe this has improved.

They could do more to improve the standing room problem, which adds up quickly. My evening train is now perpetually 3-5 minutes late, which adds 10% to the runtime, due to the train in front being overcrowded. They are putting out new timetables for next month that they claim will improve this. Their fix is to move its departure time closer to the slow train in front, and add 3 minutes to the trip duration. Frustrating.

Faster acceleration. Each stop will cost less time, and Caltrain has a surprising amount of stops between SF-SJ (22 weekday) for its length (47 miles). You can see this effect already with the amount of express schedules that Caltrain has and their varying trip times.

What I perceive as the good bits of BART could be replicated on Caltrain with much less effort than replacing Caltrain with BART: the off-peak timetable. Caltrain does better for longer trips in my (limited to South Bay) experience, which makes sense since Caltrain average trip length is 1.5x to 2x longer than BART's. But overall, getting improvements seems much less technical and more political, and neither system seems to have much luck.

Some don't, and it can make sense. If you rent it out, then you have to be a landlord, which puts you on the hook for repairs, finding tenants, and collecting rent or evicting them. There's always the possibility of tenants trashing the unit to a large degree. Some of these problems become way worse when left untreated for a week, a month, or longer. I can imagine it making sense for foreign investors to leave units empty in these circumstances.

In a similar vein, it's not just foreign investors. It might also make sense to leave the grandparent's house empty while they are in the nursing home if you live further away. If the grandparents don't need to sell the house to pay for retirement, you'd probably come off cheaply enough to leave it empty, pay the property tax and minimal utilities, rather than risk having tenants.

Many of the "baby bullet" trains are slowed down by other trains on a daily basis. Some stations only get one stop per hour, even during rush hour, so those trains are overcrowded and can take minutes to make those stops. It's not uncommon to see a bullet have to come to a complete stop behind one of those trains. More cars should allow the passengers to exit the train faster, so that would counteract the impact of slower acceleration.

There are 4 (edit: looks like 5) unused Metrolink cars sitting in the siding at 4th and King. I don't know why they aren't being used on some of the busier routes.
