I'm not entirely sure of your translating skills, but I'm board with the results. Will you be doing the whole bible, or just the fun bits?
Ranked Choice Voting (RCV) or literally any other preference voting system has mathematically and demonstrably better outcomes than the First Past the Post system most of the US uses today.
If We the People want to keep having a democratic republic that even remotely represents us, we need to keep fighting for better access to voting rights, fair districting, and improved voting systems like RCV.

I think I've even had a few Chicago style pizzas that would count as a soup in a bread bowl.
Is there a source for the data? I'd love to include the charts in some materials we're building for transit advocacy, and knowing the sources would help ensure successful distribution.
The concrete anchors are often ones you tap in first with the hammer to first set them into place. Then, you crank the bolt down, which drives out the anchor into the surrounding material. The hammer is just to get it started and fully down the bore hole.
You might also use it to align the pylon. It's easier to tap the base gently to move it a few cm into place over the holes than to pick the whole pylon up and down while aligning it.
Have groups of quadcopters/does fly down streets over cars stuck at stoplights and show ads and/or play ads at them.
You could wait for the light to go red, then form up in a wall over the crosswalk to show the drivers waiting down the street your ad. They're just going to be looking at the stoplight anyway, so that's free eyeball time, right?
I had the same arc with MarioKart. The first years were all fun, then they started rolling and I had to start pushing to keep up. Now? They're almost all adults so it's a real fight to pull wins and I couldn't be prouder!
And he's terrible with money! He needs more money!
George Carlin, how we miss thee.
The planet is burning. Every summer is going to be hotter for the foreseeable future and the priority of conservatives is to make it more dangerous to workers in the heat. The cruelty is the point, and we either unionize, vote, and beat them down to protect ourselves both in life and for the whole planet's environment.
It's wonderful how included and valued nerdiness is these days. Being interested in anything non mainstream in the conformist 80's was hell outside of a tight friend group.
I used WSL for a job and it worked fine. It's kind of a weird VM that doesn't really integrate with the host OS fully, but it works for many use cases.
Git BASH has more direct system integration and hardware access than WSL, though it's been a couple of years since I had to look at WSL at all. Hopefully they've improved the integration over time.
There's all kinds of wacky taxes, regulations, and barriers to prevent the US industry from having to compete with the world. One such example is the Chicken Tax:

That one keeps the Toyota Hilux out of the US.
What?!?
I looked it up and you can. I'll have that fired up with their docker image in no time. Thank you for the pointer.
Isn't there already another gag violation hearing on the docket for violations done while awaiting the first gag violation hearing and/or when we were awaiting the decision from the first violation hearing?
I've written a strongly worded letter, don't make address this envelope!
But Putin's stooges already did this. Apparently one dictator-oriented misinformation spewing Conservapedia wasn't enough. Gotta have two, I guess.

If I'm stuck on a windows machine, one of the first packages I try to install is git-scm.org's BASH.
It's not actually Linux, but it's got a command line and enough programs to really help get work done.
Stephenson's works are usually quite good. Snowcrash is great. Cryptonomicon is phenomenal.
He was obviously so excited to be near the peaceful process of reading out the Electoral votes that when the large group of tourists blocked his way that he just couldn't help himself so he decided to go through the window to jump the line and get into the Rotunda first. It's clearly a case of over enthusiasm for the smooth and boring operation of the Republic.
He also wasn't soliciting a minor of anything nefarious, your honor! No, he was just reaching out to teach them about why our structure of three branches of government have demonstrated a wisdom in government design that's a wonder of the world!
He was also just holding the metal whip for a friend. He though the bear spray was deodorant and since people had been working so hard to ensure the large group of tourists at the Capitol had a good time he thought he was doing the police a favor by making them smell nicer.

This is kind of an open question for me: does any code coverage tool work in Java with Junit5? I'll admit that I'm no Java configuration specialist, so I find the complexity of XML-based configuration systems to be quite opaque. I've got a few simple Maven-based build projects on hand and I wanted to add code coverage to the test harnesses. Unfortunately, I have never managed to get one stood up and running. I do this all the time with Python pytest/coverage tools, but it's been elusive for Java projects.
Could someone here please point me to a working example of any Java project using Maven / Junit5 / [any code coverage system]?
My latest attempt to get a working example came from this howto: https://howtodoinjava.com/junit5/jacoco-test-coverage/
But, it once again gave me the: [INFO] --- jacoco-maven-plugin:0.8.7:report (default-report) @ JUnit5Examples --- [INFO] Skipping JaCoCo execution due to missing execution data file.
As near as I can tell, JaCoCo just never runs. Ever. It's been very frustrating. I've read tutorials, followed suggestions on configuring surefire in various ways. I've pulled misc repo that claim to have it working. I've tried different computers with different OSes, versions of java, different maven installs, etc. There's something somewhere that I'm missing and after months of off and on attempts to get this working I'm at my wit's end.
Please help.
The French capital's mayor hailed a 'clear choice of Parisians' in favor of a measure that is 'good for our health and good for the planet.'
The measure to make vehicles weighing 1.6 tons and over pay 3x the parking rates for the first two hours has passed in Paris.
Now, let's get that in place for London and many other other places to help slow, and even reverse, this trend towards massive personal vehicles.
This video outlines some of the relationships between US commuting culture and the perspectives that it's engendered about the role of the city. The, when compared and contrasted to other nations' approach to city design and perspectives shows that it's possible to have a city core that's more than just a workplace.
My city is currently clinging to a small area of interesting downtown core. Everything else has either been bulldozed for parking lots, turned into office buildings with no store fronts, or plowed into wider roads. Every time I show the maps of the city with how car-focused we've made downtown to a city council member they recoil at the desolation, but it's so hard to get change happening.
We need fewer roads, cars, and non-human spaces in our city core areas. Making wider walking paths, biking roads, mass transit (not just busses!), and planting trees to make spaces more attractive will all continue to invite people to come downtown, not just someone desperate enough to drive there, park, hit one store and drive away.
The mayor of Hoboken, NJ came in with a vision of reducing traffic deaths to pedestrians and cyclists. He instituted several strategies of traffic calming, increasing pedestrian visibility, reducing city wide street speeds to 20 mph with schools and parks down to 15 mph. Within a few years of road improvements and redesigns their pedestrian traffic deaths to zero for several years.
The article does note that half of the streets have bike lanes, they've put buffers between pedestrians and cars, and continue to redesign intersections with a focus on safety instead of just focusing on car speed/throughput.
What I'm looking for is some kind of desktop tool that uses the OpenAI GPT web endpoint. I'd like something where I'm able to upload one or more documents (text files) and then include them as part of the conversation/query.
I have access to the GPT-4 API and I've been writing Python3 code against it for some various applications. I can see how I'd write a tool that takes in one or more documents to include in the total prompt history, but I'm hoping to not have to write it myself, mostly due to time constraints.
Is there some kind of application that has a similar feature set to this that I should look at? Or, is there a wiki/site that lists off the current tools available that I could look over?
I received an email from a textbook salesman. This isn't a rarity, but today this line lept out at me:
>"Ideal for students learning concepts and reasonably priced at $144.95,"
No. Just no. $144.95 is not reasonably priced. This is the first of what is likely a lot of emails that I get to respond with the line in the sand that I've drawn:
>"Reasonably priced" at $144.95?
No thank you. I won't subject my students to materials, including books, equipment, and any online tool licensing, that cost more than $60 per course. Until your offerings are in this range, please do not contact me again.
Even my $60 per course number is high as far as I'm concerned.
