Not sure what "american undergrads" means? If someone graduates from an American university wouldn't that make them an American undergrad? Or do you just mean someone who was born in the US that then graduated from an American university? Also how can you tell where someone was born just by looking at them, especially in the US?

How it works in Seattle is that people are supposed to sign up and talk about things on the agenda for that council meeting but they are not stopped from talking about anything. This is why you'll see people like Alex Tsimerman (look him up) speak nonsense at nearly every council meeting. The councilpeople just ignore those comments and I believe they aren't included in the meeting record since they're off topic.

There's other ways to also try and limit the length of public comment, if there's more than say 30 people signed up, reduce public comment from 2 minutes per person to 1 minute. Be aggressive about cutting mics rather than giving everyone 10 extra seconds. For topics that council knows will be contentious and attract a lot of public comment they'll either hold multiple public comment blocks that day or literally just do a marathon session, 4-5 hours of just public comment.

Finally, if enough people are frustrated enough about an issue to constantly show up to public comment to talk about it, councilmembers should try meeting with those people at a different forum to at least hear them out to try and diffuse their anger. Council meetings should not be the only other place where residents can talk to their councilmembers.

I just tried opening a 730 MB file in both and VSCode's usage was just around 2 GB while Sublime's usage (fresh install) was over 3 GB. This is even with my normal VSCode extensions enabled (91 currently).

Employees (at least on my team) get access to the Claude models as well when using Copilot CLI.

They mention bats multiple times in the article

>In the United States ... contact with infected bats is the leading cause of human rabies deaths.

> The same goes for people planning to ... explore caves in regions where rabid bats have been.

>The clearest example is someone who has been bitten by a wild dog, bat, fox, raccoon or other animal known to carry rabies. If someone had direct contact with a bat — for instance, waking up to find a bat in the room — this is also considered a possible exposure unless a bite or scratch can be definitively ruled out. ... If you find a dead bat, do not throw it away. Do not touch it or allow other people or pets to touch it. Instead, call animal control so that the bat can be tested.

>In addition, try to prevent bats from getting inside your home through windows, chimneys or other holes.

I used to work on a codebase at Microsoft that was classified as a microservice. Pretty much entirely written in C# and it was about 12 years old.

My major reason for using it is how open the platform is. I run a community project that involves posting pictures to multiple social media sites at once. Posting to Twitter was fine up until Elon's takeover broke a bunch of things. My API access got turned on and off repeatedly for unknown reasons. Checking the Twitter forums showed that this was happening to other developers as well with little response from the team there.

Bluesky on the other hand has been open first. You can now host your own Personal Data Server (PDS) which means if you ever want to post to the network you are basically never blocked from doing so.

I kept posting on Twitter manually (along side automatic posts to Mastodon, Bluesky, and Threads) because people were there but with this latest shift in interest having to post manually is a pain so I'm dropping Twitter.

To the shock of some people as well, some people use Windows because they prefer it over other operating systems.

This is no longer the case. I signed up for Informed Delivery last year with frozen credit with no issues.

I implemented them for a personal project about 6 months ago. The library support is pretty good. The biggest draw for me was that it's easier for the users of my site to use passkeys.

I haven't seen any data showing if people became addicted to drugs first and then became homeless due to that or if it was the other way around. I can totally see people becoming homeless first and then getting addicted to drugs because being homeless sucks. Again, haven't seen any data to show which way happens more often but the data showing rates of homelessness are lower in areas with lower housing costs is pretty telling.

Glad to see Cowboy release an app to potentially save us VanMoof owners. For US residents VanMoof had a leg up because there were brand stores open in the US to take bikes to for repair. There's a couple of other features VanMoof bikes had that I preferred over Cowboy's so it's sad to see them go.

At least in Seattle both Amazon and Google partnered with VanMoof to let employees rent or buy bikes so there's a ton of VanMoofs around. I wonder what's going to happen with them.
