The zsh docs are good for the zsh specific expansions, but more man page than cheatsheet, though they do have an intro doc on it that's more cheatsheet like but less complete.
Well, used to be. As I understand it newer laptops are more and more often using pouch style batteries to keep things thinner by using any available space.
Huh, I always assumed it was due to minimum temp laws, where it was cheaper to just heat everything full blast and never have to worry about a 1st floor or basement apartment not getting enough heat, and cheaper than installing valves or thermostats in every unit.
Every apartment I've lived in around NY and North NJ was like this. All had steam radiator heaters, and the heating was so hot, especially in the fall and spring, that you controlled the temp by opening or closing the window over the radiator. All but one also had single pipe radiators[0], so you couldn't turn them down with the valve or you'd end up filling the radiator with water and breaking the system.
However parts of NYC do still have steam heating powered by a central plant (mostly ConEd iirc) so in the end it might actually end up more efficient with the windows open than having a per unit heater.
I guess it's just Manhattan that has central steam, but it also provides cooling via absorption chillers and steam for disinfection. Also much of this steam is basically a waste product of electricity generation, so the actual efficiency may be even higher.
Edit 2: I also found and article in NY Times that supports the spanish flu as the reason for this, and also describes 1 vs 2 pipe systems.
Yeah, I agree it's technically not correct, but in the context of coronavirus specifically, much like COVID-19 is the disease and SARS-CoV-2 is the virus, but everyone calls it COVID, that's what people are referring to in my experience.
In other contexts New England is usually used correctly, though I have seen people include NY and/or the original 13 colonies as "New England"
That said I didn't know about the mid-atlantic administrative region, thanks for that info. It seems really weird to call NY, which borders Canada, mid-atlantic and have it stop at the south of NJ, especially when east north central goes further south. South atlantic looks about 2-3x bigger than mid and definitely goes way past the north-south halfway point of the east coast.
To add another data point, I got into hydroponics and indoor gardening since I was sitting at home all day, and I guess a lot of other people did too. Everything is sold out everywhere. Seeds, nutrients, even just potting soil is harder to come by. I tried to order some seed potatoes last week to try a hydroponic grow of them and almost every supplier is completely sold out. I found one seller that had 2/100 of their products in stock, but won't ship until mid-August.
Connecticut and Rhode Island are also part of New England. Really the tristate area is what people mean when they say New England or the North East in regards to covid. I definitely wouldn't classify NY or NJ as mid-atlantic though, it's really Maryland to the Carolines imo.
I've used both firefox (dev edition) and chrome pretty evenly for a long time (work stuff in chrome, personal in ff), and I haven't noticed any more reCaptchas in firefox than I get in chrome. If you just started using firefox, I could see the extra captchas being due to having "too clean" of a browser, or a different browser that was never used before tripping some sort of anti malware or suspicious login system.
All just speculation, but I haven't noticed the same issue.
> Road workers or bridge builders are not listed at all.
If you scroll past the 1:1 comparisons and hit expand all, there's a much bigger list of occupations, many of which would fall under the "people building infrastructure" umbrella.
Looking at those jobs it seems like it leans a bit right, but overall is fairly balanced.
>> Americans are so nervous about the state of the economy that they are stashing cash in the bank at a rate not seen since the first year of Ronald Reagan's presidency.
Could this just be that they're spending less since there's less opportunity to do so since everything's closed down? I know I personally "saved" a lot more in April, but it wasn't because I was fearful about the economy. I'm lucky that I can work from home and have been sitting at home for 2 months, not going out, not buying things other than essentials. I don't have to spend money on transportation (Metrocard, lyft, etc), I'm not spending money at bars, I can't go out for dinner, and since I'm home all day I've been cooking instead of ordering takeout. The only "expense" that's increased is throwing money into the market and playing with options, because what else is there to do.
So yeah my savings rate definitely went up, but this says nothing about being nervous about the state of the economy.
New York and New Jersey have gone past recommending masks, and have mandated them for anyone out in public, along with limiting the number of people allowed to go into a store, and a 6ft distance in any line/queue.
I tried to clear all user data for RobinHood off my phone this morning and login fresh. At first I got absolutely nothing, but eventually my stocks and options came up, then my watchlist. However the watchlist was missing everything I added to it yesterday, though if I look up a symbol directly it does show as added. So I think your theory of restoring from backups has some merit. I wonder how they'll reconcile any orders placed/executed after the backup was taken if that's the case.
>I never actually understood the difference between self-censoring and just deciding to not be offensive, and why deciding not to be offensive is such an unscientific thing. ... what are the consequences to simply not saying things?
Saying that global warming is real and caused by humans offends a large chunk of people.
Saying that vaccines are effective and don't cause autism offends a non-trivial amount of people.
Saying that (meat|sugar|fat|veganism|political ideology) is unethical or unhealthy offends pretty much everyone depending on which you pick.
So should we seek to not offend by not saying these things? Or should we strive to uncover the truth behind and change the things we don't like, instead of being offended by the acknowledgement of their existence.
