I wonder if at scale this will lead to mosquito farms or to mosquito extinction in nature.
Of course I suspect it will be the former but the latter is way funnier.
We've been stuck with these insects for a while. It would be so funny that the solution to get rid of them was in fact the same that wiped out many species before: over exploitation of natural resources.
Sharing this for the philosophical questions it raises, as well as what it means for politics in general. The discussion was super interesting to me, so I figured it might be to some other people here.
I'm not sharing this to discuss short term political subjects, neither to judge wether China or the West is better/worst.
Actually I just shared an example of the type of tips I had in mind. Limestone in the shower was pretty time-consuming to clean up, and using microfiber cloth and white vinegar made it much easier/better/faster.
Damn! After reading this I was surprised by the fact that this sounded very familiar.
I actually "practiced" a lot like this because I was always amused to notice how we could basically "see through" objects with this double-image thingy (see experiment below).
So I decided to film myself... and I was actually already doing a divergence! Not convergence!
Thanks a lot for your comment which made me realize that.
Experiment:
1. place your phone (handy size/shape for the experiment) in front of one eye (X), at about 20cm.
2. close the other eye (Y) and look at your phone
3. Open Y and look straight without focusing on the phone. By blinking Y, the double-image should appear/disappear, as if it was unveiling what's behind your phone.
4. By closing X and with Y open, looking at your phone, you should see it displaced from where it was when X was open and Y was closed. The size of this displacement is equal to the size of the double-image transparent part.
Yes, I had to make a change about urls in order to support locations from all around the world. lat/long ended up being the only unique thing in common.
When I updated the way meet.hn handles location, I migrated all city ids like the one you mention "gb-London" to a new one using lat/long.
The problem is: when users select a location, they can end up at another (close) location suggested by OpenStreetMap. To mitigate this pb, if locations have the same full name or OpenStreetMap id, I don't display them in the location selector.
Also, I put locations of type "city" first to nudge users into selecting cities more and hopefully end up with less problems of this kind.
Of course I suspect it will be the former but the latter is way funnier.
