I was wondering what it tastes like. It’s 35% whey according to Wikipedia, so I’m guessing that for “original” /“plain”, it’s watered down whey flavored? Seems like there are lots of flavors of it too.

Usually, it’s a chain of errors/failures that leads to accidents, after the many years of dissecting and trying to prevent air disasters.

2002 Uberlingen collision is one such case where the reliance on a sole air traffic controller was part of that chain. And that was with one controller instead of the desired two. 50% headcount. Here it’s 1 or 2 instead of 14-15? That’s 7-14% headcount.

We know overworking people and understaffing introduce substantial risk to managing, assisting, and responding to flights. Even supposing this poor soul could adequately manage the workload by themselves, the introduction of a single problem could throw all of it off.

If only we had paved the way to food and drug regulations with blood & hard lessons…

I’m looking forward to the amended 120 year anniversary copy of The Jungle.

I realize it’s just another framework. But I think the next time I’m building something useful beyond a basic CLI I will try textualize. https://github.com/Textualize/textual?tab=readme-ov-file

I don’t care much about aesthetic and a similar interface for terminal/web seems like it would be useful.

That said, I fully agree that it’s daunting to have to deal with any existing ui. It’s really tiresome to jump through multiple hoops just to get/show info - even before trying to make it pretty.

• Access to my entire music library remotely
• A directory structure view, rather than just Album/Artist/Genre views
• Transcoding while streaming to minimize mobile data usage
• Syncing parts of my library for offline usage

FWIW, you can partially hit most of these with Navidrome with another frontend. I like using Symfonium (android) which allows local downloading, and has a directory view. I don’t think it would work offline though for the directory view. I don’t know about caching/downloading on desktop though; feishin is my favorite desktop frontend, but I don’t think it has a DL/play from DL feature.

The above is only partial. Thank you for your work and sharing. I think the discouraging comments miss that this was a passion project of yours to fill your own use case. Good work!

I always liked the concept of blaze, but it seems like development stopped 2 years ago.

Not related other than learning resource - but I’ll also mention on the off chance it’s useful to anyone, I like these resources for practicing kana:

• https://gohoneko.neocities.org/learn/kana
  • it’s like most other “type what you see” quizzes, but I like that it has a good selection of fonts that normalize different strokes/styles.
• https://studykana.com/practice-reading
  • just a typing test. Gives you an excuse/motivation to try to go fast. I wish it had more words, or a way to upload a word dictionary, etc.

Each are useful in their own right, but I was kind of contemplating making an opensource repo that has similar (but hopefully refined) capabilities, maybe detecting when you commonly confuse two characters and then offer to give you a short drill of just those characters to reinforce.

Obviously less and less useful as time goes on and the hiragana are cemented in your memory, but it makes me sad to think someone might take them down one day and they’d just be lost.

There’s a lot I like about Wagotabi. Not perfect by any means, but I think if offers a fair bit for reinforcement fairly naturally without just always beating you over the head with flash cards. And does offer a little listening practice too at times.

I’ve almost made it to a one month long streak. It feels good my retention rate has leveled out after having restarted. Still a long way to go but currently I’ve learned ~35% of n5 kanji, and ~20% of n5 vocab. Yay progress!

I’ve not adopted it consistently, but Wagotabi looks to be a fun tool to learn/study, too.

Do you know if there’s a way to improve the routing part? I find it often takes really obtuse paths that go out of the way and add time. It shows the more optimal roads as existing, so I’m not sure why. Maybe missing speed limits or something that make it think worse roads are more optimal?

Me neither. Is it supposed to be a call of violence like “shorten the lives of the rich to today”? Or “shorten the lives of the rich by the end of today”?

Any particular recommendations?

Amazon is helping TimmiXyZ29 sell me a new washer. TimmiXyZ29 is not a certified salesman for Whirlpool Washers. Timmi is actually refurbishing old washers and selling them as new. My washer burns the house down. I think we all agree Timi is responsible, but where do I start?

• The manufacture says they can’t be responsible because Timi/Amazon aren’t selling certified Whirlpool goods.
• Timmi says he is just selling a product, it’s not his fault
• Amazon says they’re just selling a product, it’s not their fault

Now add an additional level; the order is fulfilled by Amazon. Timmi, Whirlpool and other sellers now give Amazon these washers, and Amazon keeps them in a communal pool and sends it on Timmis behalf. Now we don’t even know where the original washer came from.

What if amazon deletes, hides, or deprioritized disparaging reviews that showed the product was dangerous, and you now buy it?

There’s so many levels of possible problems that it can be hard to consistently ascribe blame to any one party when sold through amazon.

I do expect that if a party is selling goods that end up being dangerous, and users have consistently reported the failures/problems in amazon, amazon should perhaps be responsible if they did not block the seller/product or adequately raise awareness about the concern.

Hopefully you can find something that fills that need - but if it’s not possible you can always significantly reduce your usage of the visa in favor of better alternatives. Then just use the visa where you feel you must for insurance protection.

I think it has some sort of binary already in the archive. There’s a “start-tor-browser.desktop” you just double click to launch the browser.

Thanks, that’s encouraging!

On JPDB some of the old batches of kanji/vocab are still cropping up. I’m not sure why they weren’t in the first “mass” of long overdue review cards. I forgot them but after a review or two they seem to stick well.

Yes, agreed. The US stock market in part continues to be so profitable because people from all walks continue to invest in it. If folks invest elsewhere (EU, etc) it will help build there instead.

Youre right that this is financially related, but it was more to say - I’m not advising that switching to foreign investments is financially beneficial, just morally recommended. Folks doing this may end up with lower retirement funds in the end.

I mean, their 70% cocoa clocks in at 134% the mentiomed safe limit while the 80% cocoa from mast is at 14% (both reportedly for 1 oz of chocolate) according to the previously linked data. If the main determinant was the amount of cocoa, than I would have expected 80% to be higher.

Of course a company could be lying about the cocoa %, or using some type of filler, etc. But it seems plausible that there might be other causes. For example, perhaps some cocoa plantation locations have more lead in their soil, etc.

Tony’s did actually respond to CR, claiming these are not food safety standards. They did not appear to mention why their chocolate had any different levels of lead than other companies, just that leaf is absorbed from the soil.
