We can even rename Vancouver to gastown.
Not to take away from the point, but there should be quite a few dots around SV and NYC. Mark Zuckerberg lives 1mi from the Equinix DC in palo alto. Billionaire's row in NYC is about 3.5 miles from the DCs in lower manhattan or across the river in NJ. Wealth is what insulates them from the realities of DCs, not distance.
It's pretty easy to leap from "I've never been to any of these places" to "no one goes to these places". I'd put money on the person you're responding to being male.
It's actually below average. Average net worth in the 55+ age range is $1.5M. Median net worth is the much more expected $350k.
Not trying to defend the admin, but the math is suspicious here. Commercial peroxide-based algaecides are sold at 85% concentration, and the algaecidal effect happens down to 1PPM according to a quick browse on scholar. Napkin math says that's 22L, but it'd normally be powder. Copper-based algaecides need 0.4PPM, but based on highest numbers I could find that's around 100L. Those look like standard 3.6L jugs and there's at least 10 boxes containing at least 2 each, so 72L.
Depending on what those STM (swiss flag) chips are, they very well could have been manufactured in France.
These flags represent the company HQ, not where the factory or employees are located. ISSI (the american flag) fabbs in China and Taiwan. STM (swiss flag) has employees all over the world designing parts, including the US. It also manufactures *some* of them. but not in switzerland.
You don't need it to be a librarian assistant, which also handle all of those duties. Librarian is a specific title that not everyone in a library has. They have additional managerial responsibilities and have some more specialized skills like archive management, library systems development, research, etc.
The Obama admin did 1,878 drone strikes in 8 years. The first trump admin did 2,243 in the first 2 years, then eliminated the reporting requirements.
The cat on the can is a calico, the cat in the picture is a tabby. They're different cats.Regardless, the only reason a picture of the same cat couldn't be used is if the company violated IP rights in doing so.
Growth rate depends heavily on the species. You're thinking of saguaros, which grow very slowly. This looks more like a fencepost cactus, which can reach this height in <10 years. If it were an organ pipe (it's not), this height might take a few decades.
McMurdo station isn't far enough south to get true polar night. The winter sky there goes through a twilight cycle because It's only around 77 degrees south. I've only been to 72 degrees, where it's bright enough to do things outside without artificial light in winter.
China has spent around $900 billion on their HSR. If all US roads cost the same as the cheapest rural roads to build, the US road network costs 30x more. I'm fine trading <3% of the least useful roads for HSR.
The shire isn't the size of a modern country. The parts of the shire we see are the main population corridor, the rest mostly being even more sparsely populated villages of a few burrow-holes surrounded by fields.The book areas fit into a single valley, about the size of a US county, or a modern shire in the UK. You could cross it in a few hours on bike at a leisurely pace.
He's *currently* freelance according to his linkedin, but as expected the vast majority of his IMDB credits are for media that premiered on Netflix. They're also pretty badly rated, but maybe that's because his boss was Adam Sandler.
The festival won't be open until Christmas at the earliest. These are videos from prior years. Harbin's quite a bit farther south than Canada though. It's 46N, same latitude as the Washington/Oregon border.
You're just straight up wrong. It's a real festival. The photo with the multicolor tower is from the 2023 festival. The daytime photos are from 2024.
Is the purpose of a map to represent land area accurately? I can't think of many situations that's useful. Mercator preserves north being up, has correct angles, and has equally spaced meridians. Population weighted is neat and at least marginally useful: https://www.visualcapitalist.com/wp-content/uploads/2018/09/world-map.png
To ruin the joke by explaining it, but if your vision needs to be as good as possible, you want overlapping fields of view for binocular vision. That leads to forward facing eyes. If you want to see as much as possible in every direction, you can't afford visual overlap.Primates all rely on incredibly good vision, even at the cost of making other senses like smell less effective. Thus, forward facing eyes. Water is not great for vision, so binocular vision is less important for fish.
I'm not sure that anyone unfamiliar with vibe coding will know how an agent differs from other LLM usages. A simpler definition is that vibe coding is letting LLMs generate code, using only high level descriptions to guide them and without carefully reviewing the output.
This dude is a "Distinguished Engineer", which is a title that usually translates to an expectation to go around solving the problems you feel like solving for lots of money. It keeps you entertained, the company gets the benefit of your name, and maybe your skill rubs off on other employees.Hamilton in particular likes digital infrastructure (think databases), not menus.
You're entitled to feel however you wish, I'm not dismissing that. The indigenous people of the Americas are still around though, and their distant ancestors left ruins just as old.
The part of the US that's "young" is the system of government. There are 4k+ year old archaeological sites in the Southwest you can visit.
Not sure what "better museums" you have in mind than the British Museum, but no. They don't have replicas for all of the millions of items in their collection. This particular artifact *does* have replicas, but the british museum prefers to display originals, especially when the artifact will return shortly.
Depends on where you are. If you're in Hawaii, you'll be hard-pressed to find anything older than a million years.
The salt range is part of the Himalayan zone geologically. It's only isolated on the surface, and even then it's only about 100km away.
They're basically mountain raccoons. Extremely sociable, smart, and also willing to knife you in an alley for trash.
This is Kvernufoss. Registered drones are allowed here, though banned at literally the next stream over because it's a bird sanctuary. This video is a great example of why they're likely to expand that ban. You're not allowed to fly drones near birds, cliffs with birds, or people. They managed to break all three.
Some trails in Nepal have 20k+ stairs on a single day's segment. The same elevation difference without stairs at the same speed is practically begging for falls and sprained ankles.
To give you the benefit of the doubt, near-polar landscapes like the nordics are have fragile, slow-growing vegetation. This area obviously doesn't have enough rocks for hikers to avoid the vegetation and it's steep enough that a trail worn into the vegetation would create a fast wash and increase the erosion problem. It's also safer.Go find a scree trail if that's what you want.
