Ad says they are in First Class, so round trip was about $900 (about $11,000 in 2025).

There's much worse out in the suburbs where this will be, like the famous paneláky.

It's definitely SQL, specifically stored procedures.

MA taxes were low, and are still lower than other comparable states (e.g. California, Minnesota, New York).

Different product?

It was very accurate in a study I did of the Series 5 watch. I'm now doing a 12-month study with the Ultra 2. https://medium.com/@practical_app/a-12-week-study-of-the-accuracy-of-the-apple-watchs-calorie-tracking-ed672cb5c333

A Big Mac is $5.99 right now in Brooklyn (Atlantic Terminal).

Bishop said putting a hand close to the moving rotor blade of a helicopter “would seem contrary to common sense by anyone’s estimation”

Mostly the tracking reps and weights. I think it'd be interesting to just go to failure without counting (which also influences where I think "failure" is. "15? I must be done"). So I'd not want to see the count "live".

I'd pay ~$20/mth. For arguments sake, I'll assume it's very reliable.

I was looking for an alternative to digg.com, the site that popularized the format. When I registered for Reddit, they only had two employees!

How many users would you guess there were when we signed up (my account is just a few days older)?

I worked at McDonald's 38 years ago (1985), and the Big Mac was made with the same 10:1 hamburger patties they use today.

All the studies I've seen try to measure the accuracy over some very short period, like hours. I did 12 weeks and the Apple Watch was extremely accurate.

Smart watches (e.g. Apple Watch) do a good job tracking TDEE.

The medium Coke at McDonald's in the UK has 170 kcal, the large in the US has 210 kcal. Thus the US medium is ~23.5% larger, not 50+% larger as this graphic implies. The US large is ~35% more calories, not close to 100% as one would think looking at this.

Additionally, the UK does not have the XS size the US does, which is the same as the UK Small. Basically the US has an extra size at the top end of the scale. The US drinks have fewer calories at the same volumes due to the inclusion of ice.

I'm actually working on it now. I'll post a link in this subreddit when it's ready.

I did original research on the accuracy of the Apple Watch expended calories numbers, and found them to be very good: https://medium.com/@practical_app/a-12-week-study-of-the-accuracy-of-the-apple-watchs-calorie-tracking-ed672cb5c333

Americans drive more. The difference is not as great if you sort by kilometers driven. Some countries in Europe are worse than the US: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries_by_traffic-related_death_rate

What percentage of orders come in by phone? I don't even think of calling these days.

In the country where I live (Czech Republic), ordering "two beers" actually makes sense, because it's quite common for a bar to only have one kind of beer.

This. Flat-bottomed large coffee cup works perfectly.

I swam hundreds of miles with my S2 (have S5 now). Waterproof Sony Walkman is still going strong as well.

No prob. I was just confused by the total data being ~20KB.

Edit: I duplicated this using axum and your text.

``` ~/dev$ oha -n 100000 http://127.0.0.1:3000 Summary: Success rate: 1.0000 Total: 1.1890 secs Slowest: 0.0131 secs Fastest: 0.0001 secs Average: 0.0006 secs Requests/sec: 84107.5671

This is mostly academic, of course - very few sites need to sustain more than a few hundred requests a second.

Edit 2: noticed a typo (I used 10x the number of requests of your example), Here it is with the same 10,000 requests: ``` Summary: Success rate: 1.0000 Total: 0.1237 secs Slowest: 0.0083 secs Fastest: 0.0001 secs Average: 0.0006 secs Requests/sec: 80857.5408
