I hated when textbooks/papers did this. Half the time you can't tell if they meant to use the bold letter or if the printer was just being generous on that character. Made legibility quite a bit more difficult. BB letters are unambiguous.
Not the OP, but here's my observation: When I have to stop at a light until it turns green, I have to navigate the intersection while the cars around me are entering it as well. Suddenly there's a car trying to pass me, a car in the oncoming lane turning left, etc. If I can skirt through the intersection while the light is red and there's no transverse traffic, I can get through without interacting with any other moving vehicles.
I've also been involved in car(-car, not car-bike) accidents before where some idiot at a light was looking at their phone while stopped, and did something stupid when they noticed others moving in their peripheral vision. Plausibly, such idiots could be the cause of a lot of accidents at intersections.
My father still has his an HP-41CX he was given for his HS graduation in the early 80s, which he had restored about a decade ago. He uses it mainly, but not exclusively, when he wants to show it off.
I don't mean any personal offense, but as an American I associate this behavior with "you can't afford not to travel" and "eating $regionalFood in $location has ruined the dish for me; I can't eat it anywhere else" types.
I'm pretty sure these racial categories are American abstractions, whose names have only reflected their composition in recent decades. The Irish, for instance, were long not considered 'white'; they were just 'Irish'.
I just meant that I haven't made any efforts to keep google from snooping on me through that phone. So I get all the convenience of e.g. google screening my calls and waiting on hold for me, with all the associated privacy concerns, as opposed to the LineageOS device which I don't think has any google apps/services at all.
I do enjoy the 4a very much however, it's a great device.
It probably should be explained. Their classification makes sense, but I think some may be misled. The demographic of people getting older phones and running LineageOS would probably be comfortable with managing a few obnoxiously tiny screws to replace a battery, and just want to be able to replace them when they start crapping out, whereas the older phones I've had which advertised a replaceable battery (consistent with this list) made it easy enough for grandma.
Coincidentally, yesterday my father handed me his old Moto X 2014 with a shattered screen, asking me if I wanted to do anything with it before he trashed it. I wiped it and installed lineageOS, which is what I'm using to write this comment; its definitely a less fluid experience than my full-dystopia-mode pixel 4A, but its a refreshing experience nonetheless and I could imagine it's great for people who want to treat their phone as a tool and not a perpetual distraction device (I would guess that even with further tinkering I would be hard pressed to get all my apps integrated sufficiently seamlessly so as to enable such levels of distraction).
I watched a teardown video for the phone on YouTube and it appears the battery is replaceable, just not easily, whereas its given an "x" on this list (is this true of all phones?). Fortunately I don't seem to be suffering any battery-related problems at the moment, but I will be attempting to replace the screen, which does not seem to be easy on this dwvice.
>Imagine instead a tmux that could allow multiple users to connect to it simultaneously, and drive different panes at the same time, or view the commands that another user is using in a given pane.
I think this is what tmate does? I haven't used it, but I saw it mentioned on HN a couple days ago.
Clicking around arXiv and google scholar, I get the sense the author is legitimate. But I wouldn't be surprised if some technical barrier was found by another expert. I don't think the author has published anything in complexity theory before, and the story of 'older academic attempts to enter new field with old tools, immediately solves most important problem in field' is a tad fishy to me, though not entirely without precedent. The idea sounds pretty cool though; I'd definitely prefer to be mistaken.
