O Rock Damn.

Surprised to see `ExtraORDinary Rock` missing => 50-tons, that's got to meet the bar for extraordinary.

Great minds. I posted `tether` to the RePebble forum to see if folks who know more than I do could determine feasibility for Pebble on iOS. If what you're saying is true, sigh! Even my Honda Accord from 2016 can send pre-programmed replies to messages over Bluetooth; that I can only read messages as notifications on my "modern" Pebble Time 2 is a shame. Both devices connect to an iPhone.

Claude was definitely here.

If not and this is written by a human, they need a prose-writing constitution.

It’s the Friday before WWDC during which Apple is going to announce an “improved” Siri based on Google models (a locked partnership, for now). Maybe it’s a coincidence, but this might be Google releasing models that will be showcased next week by Apple?

No knowledge, just speculation.

FWIW, this has been my experience since 2003 when I had to get suspension work done. Doesn’t matter if it’s a BMW or Honda, dealership or indie repair shop, the story I have heard consistently is that the bushing is part of the arm for structural integrity, stability, <reason I can’t remember, truth or crock>. Bushings typically fail faster than the arm does, and this repair is expensive ($1000+ for performance cars, not that much cheaper for Civics).

The “Design for purported Safety vs. Design for Saving Dollars” principle at work.

Your observation makes sense given the population density and sheer number of people that the Bay Area has relative to Montana. If the Costco in where-you-are Montana weren’t chill, there would be similarities between that area and the Bay Area / LA.

Didn’t feel it either, and my family and I are close to Shirokanedai. I hope folks are fine where this was felt more than what I experienced.

As a commenter noted as well, you can perform the swap using two std::rotate calls vs. three (less than 2N operations). This said, Raymond’s use of reverse is still most efficient at N operations (not considering paging/caching issues).
