it's called automatic billing updaters.
like
Visa: Visa Account Updater (VAU) https://developer.visa.com/capabilities/vau Mastercard: Automatic Billing Updater (ABU)
it worked fine for sometime, but the problem is that now the stolen credentials are being refreshed now as well.

no it's like a continuation of your credit card for recurring payments.
It's called Automatic Billing Updater (ABU)
the idea is that if you ask for a new credit card after being stolen, your say utility providers or other like netflix subscriptions can seamlessly switch over to the new credit card number.
it worked fine for a while, but of course the problem is that afterwards the stolen credit card credentials started to be refreshed as well.

I’m a bit confused why so many people are commenting as if bus stop balancing doesn’t work or that transit riders won’t accept it. From 2010s and 2020s plenty of transit agencies across America have been implementing bus stop rebalancing in Los Angeles, San Francisco, dc, Seattle etc and generally it’s been successful with speeding up buses.
Of course there most of the low hanging fruit with notorious like bus stops every 200/300feet are a lot fewer and the remaining ones to rebalance are a lot harder

generally it's the opposite. people need a lot more light. an overcast window is like 50k+ lumens while a light bulb is like 500 lumens.
https://myopiainstitute.org/imi-whitepaper/imi-the-role-of-l...
lack of light is generally the leading hypothesis for why there is a myopia epidemic actually. from people being indoors most of the time for school or work.
though unfortunately scientists are still researching if it is a specific frequency of light etc... people are missing

The main issues are under the Behavior differences https://go.dev/blog/jsonv2-exp#behavior-differences
The largest problem were around behavior around nil in golang and what to convert into json and vice versa.
* The v2 will now throw an error for invalid characters outside of ut8 (before silently accepted it) which meant one had to preprocess or process again the json before sending it off to the server * the golang nil will be converted to json empty array or map (for each type). previously it was converted to json null. * json field names will be converted to golang names with case sensitivity. before it was case-insentitive and would be lowercased. this kinda caused lots of problems if the field collided. (say there's bankName and bankname in json) * omitempty was problematic as it was used for say golang amount: nil would mean omit the field in json as {} instead of { amount: null}. however it also meant that the golang amount: 0 would also be omitted as { amount: 0 } which surprising. the new omitempty will only do so for nil and empty arrays/hashmaps but no longer for 0 or false. there's a new omitzero tag for that.

Or allow building higher than one story? Like most cities around the world

> There's been discussions where the "next" airport should go in the Seattle region, and the consensus is that nobody wants it. The State Legislature created a commission to try and identify some potential sites, but the public backlash was so great that they ended up submitting it's final report with no actual recommendation.
The commission was hampered by rules that stated they couldn't look into increasing the existing airports capacity.
"Survey responses also conveyed members’ views on what kind of options the Legislature permitted them to consider — the 2019 legislation prohibited considering sites in King County, or those near military bases. Some members noted that those constraints hindered their search efforts, with some doubting whether it’s possible to have a new airport operational by 2040." https://www.seattletimes.com/business/boeing-aerospace/state...
The "next" airport is basically just expanding SeaTac. There's plans to add a second terminal in SAMP https://www.portseattle.org/sites/default/files/2018-06/1805... And then even WSDOT's project for the new 509 extension is to allow freight traffic to reach the seatac airport.
Outside of that the other regional airport to be used is king county international airport -- even back in 2005 southwest looked into using it.
Paine field, while it has the capacity is not where the demand is for passengers. Secondly, I don't think many people realize the bottleneck for SeaTac airport is not just passenger traffic but freight traffic. It's why the airport commission keeps choosing sites south of Seattle aka Pierce County or Thurston County because it's close to the port of tacoma. They aren't going to choose Paine field.

The problem that this is the wrong measure to use emissions per mile, when it's really about emissions per trip.
A car flying down the freeway uses less emissions per mile, but if one is traveling 50 miles versus just walking to down the block the former is using a lot more emissions even if it is more efficient per mile.

I mean if it's on reddit or other platforms, one could do some simple search for them before they submit the post and prompt "seems like this article has already been submitted" and a checkmark if they want to bypass it.

They are constructing it right now the expansion between bellevue to renton.
https://wsdot.wa.gov/construction-planning/search-projects/i...
The bellevue to lynnwood section was already 'expanded' a decade ago though as one can tell, it still has traffic. They're opting to increase the tolls now.

> I think it has to do with the way the city grew out north and south, with the city itself as a chokepoint (since it is surrounded by water otherwise). Common reasons people need to go from north seattle to south seattle: IKEA, Southcenter, Seatac.
> I'm sure there are reasons for people to go north as well, but I have a harder time thinking of them (other than that they went south and now have to come back north).
@sean To reach UW, northgate (well it's demolished just ice skating for now lol), ballard and fremont; granted this is a bit optional, uvillage is nice to visit as well.
Also I find it a bit interesting you have a harder time thinking of interesting stuff in north seattle, I am actually sometimes annoyed having to drive north past downtown seattle to reach north seattle. I didn't really think about it but yeah ikea/southcenter are relatively easy for me to reach. :)
@uoaei Anyways regarding planning itself. Seattle is actually actively planning their next community plan, one of the items called out is whether to allow more 'urban villages' which have shops and other amenities.
For malls, Northgate should have been the north seattle mall but it's currently being redeveloped. There's U village but it's a bit high end. The other alternative of Alderwood mall isn't too bad to get to by driving but during peak traffic can be quite slow.

It's actually a bit interesting to see WSDOT's plan for i-5.
For capacity they aren't expanding I-5 directly, but expanding i-405 and sr167 instead for people trying to go past Seattle.
For i-5 within Seattle area, there are some 2030s plans to convert the hov lanes to toll lanes and reconfiguring the reversible express lane system. * I-5 Managed Lanes: SR 16 to Pierce/ King County Line * I-5 Managed Lanes: Pierce/ King County Line to I-405 * I-5 Managed Lanes: I-405 to US 2

Pretty nice website of chicagos zoning
Fyi there’s an initiative to create a nationwide (USA) zoning map https://www.zoningatlas.org/

Does it sound that unbelievable for the 2010s? There was quite a discrepancy between how the internet/computers were generally being used and the legality.
Like https://www.eff.org/deeplinks/2016/07/ever-use-someone-elses... > Last week, the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals, in a case called United States v. Nosal, held 2-1 that using someone else’s password, even with their knowledge and permission, is a federal criminal offense.
Also, the courts only just legalized white hacking last year. Before that violating the terms of service was also potentially a federal crime. https://www.spiceworks.com/it-security/security-general/news...
you can then consistently like figure out if it was claude that wrote the sentence. it is easy as you noted if you just get another ai to read it and then rewrite it.
