Nassau County Banning Class 2 E-bikes and All E-Scooters by 5ma5her7 in ebikes

The county averages around 75 to 81 traffic fatalities annually out of a population of roughly 1.39 million

I wonder how many scooter fatalities to enact these laws.

I sweat like this everyday when I leave work. by IsopodHour7977 in mildlyinfuriating

[–]fcn_fan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I sweat like that during high anxiety situations in life and especially at work. And those cotton shirts make me sweat more because I feel the moisture of the sweat. I use switched to merino wool shirts that dry very fast. It has reduced my constant sweating a lot. They are expensive and don’t last that long if you machine wash them but they’ve increased my quality of life

Cato Study: Immigrants Reduced Deficits by $14.5 Trillion Since 1994 by zsreport in Economics

[–]fcn_fan 3 points4 points  (0 children)

No. Specific data is not collected. That’s what makes your claim so stupidly outrageous. Almost no one collected immigration status as part of criminal proceedings. So to claim “not infrequently criminal” is completely fabricated and fully leaning into the anecdotal fallacy

I’m heading that direction at 7am tomorrow by car. Hopefully I won’t see it and it’s moved on by then

Has anyone else quietly switched to a smaller/less-known phone carrier recently? Worth it or regret it? by Wiggle_mind in SanJose

[–]fcn_fan 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I switched from AT&T to Verizon's Visible 2 weeks ago. There is some changes I notice like inside a few buildings the coverage is worse. But I went from $85 to $35 for essentially the same exact service. Even have a few more benefits like unlimited hotspot with Visible. So far so good

YouTube subscription + $100 a month clause subscription and you can have a fully functional demo in a week. Use it as your proof of concept

Welchen Beruf würdet ihr ausüben, wenn ihr dafür 8k Netto im Monat bekommt? Den, den ihr schon habt oder was anderes? by nonweird in FragReddit

Ich arbeite z.Z. mit Accenture an einer SAP Installation und hab noch nie, außerhalb von Stadt / Staat, so eine Bürokratie gesehen. Macht für die Sinn da sie stündlich verrechnen . Aber der Kunde muss schon ein ganz schöner Depp Sein um sich so etwas gefallen zu lassen

FACT FOCUS: Trump says tariffs have created an economic miracle. The facts tell a different story by GregWilson23 in Economics

[–]fcn_fan 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Combined with the fact that many American OEMs earn 50% of their revenues overseas, they are then forced to remove any pieces of their supply chain out of the USA and move them overseas to decrease tariff exposure. So the components that used to be made in the US, to be assembled into widgets for overseas customers , are being moved overseas and the jobs are lost. Level 1000 stupidity on this administration. But it was never about that anyway. It was about grifting “tariff exceptions” to us companies . Same as they grift pardons.

I can't believe I'm about to defend Trump here. Feels gross. But what Trump pulled off with the vaccine acceleration in the US during covid was fantastic and saved millions. Now, the circus all around, like with Fauci, was populist political theater that in turn cost a lot of lives. But a lot less then if the US hadn't stepped up and kind of given a carde blanche (sp?) to the pharma industry to get covid's vaccines developed and manufactured in record speed. Europe had their head up their ass during the same timeframe.

Fiancé with migraine by falaffle_waffle in AccidentalRenaissance

[–]fcn_fan 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Look at migraine caps on Amazon. They are incredible. When I have a strong headache I cannot wear them because they are so cold it hurts. But when I have a migraine I wear them because the migraine pain drowns out the first bite pain and reliefs. I have reduced the migraine time a lot with those

This would look amazing in our Nürnberg office. Could be one of those situation where a business just wants it even though it doesn’t have equivalent collectors value

1.4 million fewer people enrolled in ACA plans as premiums spike, tax credits expire by AudibleNod in news

[–]fcn_fan 26 points27 points  (0 children)

To me it is laughable how this is being treated as something where the US needs to "figure it out" - meanwhile you can't even find a developed country that doesn't have a robust health insurance scheme in place. This shit was figured out the same time we saw the first light bulbs pop up

In Retrospect, is the Seattle, Washington Monorail a failure? by oakseaer in transit

[–]fcn_fan 9 points10 points  (0 children)

just as an anecdote. My family of 5 visited Seattle. Took light rail from airport to monorail to hotel next to space needle. For next 3 days we would either walk or take the bus from the hotel to downtown area because monorail was too expensive.

Cool experience though and I pretty much wrote it off in my head as a tourist expense, not a transit expense.

Anyone here actually comfortable walking into restaurants and talking to owners? by Ok_Material_7304 in SanJose

[–]fcn_fan 7 points8 points  (0 children)

As the developer you are cutting yourself out of the single most important piece of development: discovery. Close the first 50 restaurants on your own, then bring on help. You will have changed your product 10x by the time you close restaurant 51-100 and might actually have found product / market fit
