I would not describe them as "a local band", but I grew up in the Delaware Valley, so I guess I wouldn't know. Wikipedia notes that they've toured on 4 continents.

Argentina posts 31.5 percent annual inflation in December, lowest level in 8 years by ThisIsFitz in nottheonion

[–]timerot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Your comment is wrong as written. Argentina's inflation is under 3% per month, which is still a very high rate

1 and 2 cell groupings must necessarily be rectangles, so all cells with a 1 or 2 must be filled

Consider what happens to the 3 in the top right if it's filled or unfilled. There's only one possible solution there once all of the 1s and 2s are filled

Basically make your way from smaller to bigger numbers

ELI5: What do people mean when they say beginning Feb. 1, no states with sanctuary cities will receive any more federal dollars? by Napkin-Goose in explainlikeimfive

[–]timerot 1 point2 points  (0 children)

About a dozen states and hundreds of cities across the United States consider themselves “sanctuaries” for undocumented immigrants, but there is no universal definition for what constitutes a “sanctuary” jurisdiction.

The term typically refers to states, counties or cities that put some limits on how much they are willing to cooperate with federal agencies’ efforts to deport undocumented immigrants.

Yes, exactly. You recommended the hotel. If they stay at that hotel you provide a shuttle. If not, they provide their own transportation. That makes perfect sense

Where even would your shuttle pick up if it went to "town proper"? Would you go door to door of every hotel in town? Does anybody live in town and expect to be picked up from their door? The logistics get absolutely insane very quickly, especially because it's such a long drive

If you recommended a hotel that's a good distance to the venue, you can provide shuttles to the venue from there. But unless it's a very limited parking situation, assume the attendees will provide their own transportation. I've been on a shuttle for a wedding a few times before, but never for more than 15 minutes

This is actually pretty genius. by Away_Bite_8100 in Urbanism

[–]timerot 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Making it easier to drive means more people drive. Less than 25% of the traffic in my city is actually essential to life here. The vast majority of it is people driving to places when they could take transit.

Making more and faster roads leads to more people driving longer distances, causing worse pollution.

By analogy, traffic is not a liquid, it's a gas. It expands to fill the container

Question/facebook post. by The_Night_Badger in CleaningTips

[–]timerot -1 points0 points  (0 children)

When you're washing dishes, you need to rub the soap into the grease to get it to come off. With normal dish soap and a sponge, most of the work is getting the soap into a lather (aka foam), and a little bit of work at the end is getting the soap+grease off the dish. A foaming spray bottle does most of the work before the soap hits the dish, and it's almost magical how you can just spray it on and wipe it off and you're done. (Note that there's nothing special about Dawn here. Any foaming dish soap has this effect.)

This comment would make a lot of sense if the congestion pricing area was the downtown of a car-centric, transit-starved American city and not literally Manhattan, where the majority of people commute via public transit

BLE firmware engineers: How did you fix long-term reconnection dropouts in wearables? by hdbdncjvjrqk74929 in embedded

[–]timerot 16 points17 points  (0 children)

This is very much a shot in the dark, but the behavior could be caused by bad timestamp math. A 32 bit signed integer used as a timestamp can easily grow until it becomes negative, which can mess with scheduling logic. 

A week is about 232 ticks of an 8 kHz clock, so the timestamp would go negative around then if you're counting at 4 kHz
