exactly - the rejection of short range EVs was when they cost as much as a normal car

if the short range EV is now much cheaper, people will adapt to the restriction because it's an affordable option

The majority of people only skim content before making a post.

The truncated paragraphs are very odd - definitely a mistake.

Replace "Them" with "Coworker" and the point of linking to the site is instantly understood (a LMGTFY-style shaming with a dash of humor to soften the blow)

With "Them" I wasn't sure if you meant the AI companies, some dude I didn't recognize in the avatar, scammers, coworkers, etc...

Misery Map adds two crucial pieces of context: the delays between airports, and rain/snow on the map, which often is the reason for delays. It's nice to see it all together.

From a project management perspective, the 5 examples don't help me understand how/why I might switch from Playwright/Cypress to this framework. It seems like Bombadil is a much lower-level test framework focusing on DOM properties but in the "Why Bombadil?" introduction you say "maintaining suites of Playwright or Cypress tests takes a lot of work" ... I'd like if there was an example showing how this is true, perhaps a 1:1 example of Playwright vs Bombadil for testing something such as notifications clearing when I click clear. Basically, beefing up examples with real-world ones that Playwright users might have written is a good way to foster adoption.

You would likely be interested in the Starcraft BWAPI: https://www.starcraftai.com

You can watch the matche videos from training runs: https://www.youtube.com/@Sscaitournament/videos

I don't think BWAPI has ever integrated modern AI models, but I haven't followed its progress in several years.

Many teams work exclusively in GitHub (ticketing, boards, workflows, dev builds). People also have entire production build systems on GitHub. There's a lot more than git repo hosting.

YouTube design changed almost every year until 2020! Wild.

"empathy" "right" "help" "hope" "same"

None of those words appear in the article. I can deduce that the author of this article would never return a wallet. If they are this perplexed at the good deeds of others, and need to turn to science for a reason, they are as dense as a brick.

Reasons:

- because kind strangers have empathy

- because kind strangers want to do what is right, and help others

- because kind strangers would hope the same thing is done when they lose their own wallet

Are you testing performance with pgbench or something more custom/advanced?

Some teammates agreed to do this, but it's not known what files will be edited ahead of time, so a large job often has formatting edits anyway.

Lines with actual code changes aren't a problem for me, it's the automated IDE indent/spacing/bracketing that really drives me up a wall and fatigues the hell out of me.

But this might only be a problem with those of us working on legacy codebases. The kind of PRs I see in OSS projects I could review 1000 lines at a time - it's so clean!
