It can actually be easier to raise children in places with good bike infrastructure, because you don’t have to be their chauffeur. They can bike themselves around.

And for smaller children, in cities like Amsterdam, it’s common to see a mom riding with multiple kids sitting in a cargo bike.

I scan them through a quarter inch or so of wood, so this should be no problem.

They don’t have to return the ETH, they agreed to return the ETH. 9 of 13 of the leaders of the (centralized) org have to agree to be able to move funds back to the people, there’s nothing technically forcing them to do so.

Beside maybe a legal obligation that people would have to take them to court over to sort out, no better than a gofundme/kickstarter.

Pieces snap together when moving passed each other, even if they aren't both in front. I just had a lot of fun exploiting this by stacking all the pieces on top of each other and then just "printing" the puzzle by moving the connected pieced past the pile.

QR codes are big ugly squares, so I can understand why some popular apps decide to roll their own.

But it certainly makes them way less convenient and universal. Can’t just open your camera app.

It took me maybe 45 seconds just now to find the scanning feature in Spotify, in a real world situation I probably would have given up and just used search after about 10 seconds.

They mention in the article that normal protocol is to immediately soak the thumb in bleach. Not sure if that’s actually effective though, or just hopeful.

When did you do this comparison? A couple years ago I did a comparison and found Google the best and Amazon to be not very good.

Agree it’s best to skip tesseract unless the free cost is important. We spent a lot of time trying to preprocess and tune tesseract before realizing cloud OCR solutions are much better and fairly cheap.

This doesn’t use electricity at all, the “solar power” is heat from the sun causing the water to evaporate. It’s a still, not a filter. According to the article the salt/brine freely flows back into the body of water.

Rather than texting the consumer a security code and having them enter it in the browser, you could display a security code in the browser and have them text it to your automated system.

But there’s still no way to know if that number later gets released to another person.

How long ago did you try it?

I had a similar experience with Home Assistant a couple years ago, but they’ve made a ton of progress on UX recently. I still wouldn’t recommend for a typical consumer, but should be easy for someone building their own apps.
