Just to add, the regulations you mention aren't even about AC, it's about modifying buildings' "looks". You can still install AC if you figure out where to put the outside unit - roof, balcony, inner yard, ...

Not everyone has the ability to install personal unit where they live, that's true, same way they can't install satellite dishes for example.

Outside air temperature isn't an issue. It's not like people drop dead the moment it hits 40. The problem is that after a few days of that everything is heated up through and you have no place to escape it. That's new and hasn't been happening before.

My favorite renderer of OSM (and possibly other data) https://mapy.com/en/turisticka?x=-3.1744145&y=55.9517954&z=1...

there's an app too, some features are paid, and there are some long-standing bugs, but is otherwise quite fine. I use it when I want a map, not just uniform gray void with roads that is google maps.

Discord threads are just an addon on top of a chat. It's not really a real discussion. And the discord discussions (or whatever it is called) are again flat IIRC? Slack threads are flat. Both are chat platforms first and foremost I would say.

There's another option. Combining both threads and chronological order.

You can have both threaded discussions and chronological ordering of top level comments. It works really well.

These vibes are pretty obvious even with casual use. Weekends are so much better.

This looks super intriguing but also maybe too much. Love that it exists, not sure if I will try it.

That's the same in my native language too I guess. It's used in books, sometimes in media, but not really in any casual setting I would say.

I have mac, typed this --- again --- and nothing? Layout says U.S.

edit: another comment gave a mac shortcut – — - <--- one of these might be it

I've only ever been using "regular" dash, a minus, for that. How do you even type yours? If I ever needed differently-sized dashes (and I don't know the difference between them) I always used wiki to copy them.

(disclaimer: I feel like this obsession with dashes is special to native English speakers, which I'm obviously not)

The flip, I think, is realistic enough. It could be just slower and the speed of turnaround reflect whether the loco needs to turn around. But the slow reverse that can be solved with two locos is a nice upgrade too.

I always know what kind of game I want to play, but it's overwhelming to set up, if even possible. It's tons of packages, forums, idk.. so I just end up playing vanilla, with maybe some rules among the players. But I wish there was a comprehensive interface to allow me to set all the stuff that I want.

From the top of my head (haven't played in over a year) it would be: cargo destination for people, cargo prices reflect proximity of other productiosn, mono/maglev only has passenger cabs, regular rail still gets upgrades, no planes I guess, "automatic" public transport within cities - no need to build stops, just buses driving around (transferring people to train stations). And probably more I can't think of now.

The article has an explanation for what kind of database it is. After reading that one sentence you wouldn't write the second paragraph.

> it's optimized for the kind of queries that scan millions of rows to filter, aggregate, and join — not the kind that look up a single record by primary key

If the correctness check was vibecoded there's a good chance it was cheated. So maybe that, on top of the, you know, code review (see the sibling comment).

While PRs may have been used to correct style, that shouldn't have been their only or even main purpose. That's on whoever was using it that way, not on the concept of reviews.

You cannot deliver feedback on something that doesn't exist. If you mean a review in the style of "all of this is wrong and needs to be rewritten differently" then yes, that's something to be discussed beforehand. But I don't imagine this is what people think of when discussing a review.

But what if you have English configured as a preferred language? Isn't that what it's for? Wouldn't it make sense for a website to respect that (when available)? I hate that google.com doesn't and defaults to random languages based on IP.

Couldn't it also be case where the pesticides are fine to use on potatoes but not on tomatoes, for example?

Yeah, middle schooler with middle school understanding can design anything. There are plenty of middle school solutions in the comments around. The problem is when they meet real world, beyond their high school level understanding of the issue.
