I think you missed it: go and dot net launched without package managers. It was a long time before they had a standard package manager.

Love it when the ads load but the video you wanted to watch won't load.

How do you define "minor accident" -- perhaps it was a "minor" accident because no one was injured and no other party was involved?

Last time I bought a car, I found the one I wanted with the note that it had been in a minor accident. I paid for the carfax, and learned that it had some damage and repairs, and had somehow traveled across the country in the process. Limited details, except, the accident had occurred in Florida. $10 later I had the police report. It was a 4wd car and suffered 2 broken axles & broken drive train. not minor in any way.

Article says "photos of the damage made it look more than minor"

Sounds like buyer was scammed.

> The term "salvage" was a complete shock, but a deeper dive into the CARFAX vehicle history report, which he didn't pull until after the sale, uncovered a "minor accident."

> Photos of the damage made it look more than minor, and a Tesla technician told him the repair work as shoddy.

The article doesn't miss it -- this is exactly the point. We can and will rearrange our environment to support robots, but that means they will never learn dexterity.

offline now. It's a reasonable to expect that this information should not be available in real time to protect parking officers. It's already published daily, as mentioned in other comments.

there is -- https://data.sfgov.org/City-Infrastructure/Map-of-Street-Swe...

"undergoing maintenance" but spot check of data looks correct to me.

Street cleaning tickets are given efficiently and enforcement is conducted to minimize the time that people can't park. 2-4 parking officers drive in front of the street cleaning vehicles and ticket everyone parked. if you're watching at the time you'll see almost every car on the street pull out in front of the officers, circle the block and park right back in the same -- but now clean -- spot. those that don't get tickets.
