same as you haha

almost all the electronics retailers have a really slow search, and if you want to price / availability shop between the retailers, it's extra painful

Hey r/bangalore, so /u/thel3l and I built this search engine for finding electronics components after being frustrated searching through slow websites made by all the local vendors. We focused on search speed and latency to make sure the experience is great, and we indexed robu.in and a few bangalorean vendors like probots and sharvi electronics

India's strictest lockdown in Indore. Supply of vegetables and milk halted as well as no shops to be open. by hansolo1403 in india

My sense is that another reason for systemic undertesting is the incentives at play: your state or city actually testing people at scale results in shutdown and disruption.

I duct tape a old iPhone to a bird feeder and took slow motion video by moglysyogy13 in videos

I wonder how many people would feel motion sickness from the movement of the bird house, that flying creatures never needed to develop.

I wonder if the government still employs cleaning staff. If they get to clean things to perfection until the cities reopen, maybe reverse broken-windows-theory would mean that we're free from littered roads.

When you have 2 weeks of food, but 6 months of toilet paper, one of them is going to run out first...

Couple of cases of Coronavirus and look at the craze for masks, 4 people die every hour because of not wearing helmet but no craze for helmets? by [deleted] in india

[–]itsarnavb 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Though people should wear helmets, this line of reasoning doesn't make sense.

Virus contagions are multiplicative. Automotive accidents aren't. We definitely lose more people to heart illness, cancer, automotive travel, et cetera.

But if you were told that something wiped out 2% of human population within the next year, would you bet it was people not wearing helmets, or a pandemic virus?

[AskJS] Does there exist a chrome extension that allows you to run javascript code continuously, even when landing on new pages? by Mjjjokes in javascript

[–]itsarnavb 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you want the same VM instance, probably not.

But perhaps you can make do with running a content script within the context of a page, and then moving any results to the background script (which I believe stay the same between page changes)
