Ah I see, it’s kinda like an external login where only specified data is shared (age in this case). The 3rd party would know nothing else, but the government would know that you asked for that check from that service…

Not as bad as corps having the data directly, but not perfect…

Really cool way of picturing an IP dataframe!

Like if you’re dropping it at a post office and praying it’ll get to where you need it to, which makes it rather remarkable that it actually does get there.

What is this system? I’m unfamiliar.

This, plus the office can come with some perks that might be useful to you or help you save some money - mine offers soup, bread and fruit, and also showers + deodorant (for people who like to cycle or jog to work).

I don’t know about associated punishments, but the highway code is clear.

Rule 267: […]Overtake only on the right.

Rule 268: Do not overtake on the left or move to a lane on your left to overtake.

It goes on to clarify that, in heavy traffic, the left lane could be moving faster and that keeping up with the flow is OK.

You know what’s a needless lane change? When I come behind you and have to cross 2 lanes to overtake you, because you’re totally zoned out and never saw me coming, and then I have to move back 2 lanes again instead of 1.

MOVE RIGHT jackass. If changing lanes on an empty highway is too challenging for you, maybe you shouldn’t be driving on one.

The highway code, the official rules for road use in the UK, reads:

(General Rules, 160) “keep to the left, unless road signs or markings indicate otherwise. The exceptions are when you want to overtake, turn right or pass parked vehicles or pedestrians in the road”

(Motorway lane disciple, rule 264): “Keep in the left lane unless overtaking. If you are overtaking, you should return to the left lane when it is safe to do so (see also Rules 267 and 268).”

Many other EU countries have the same rules. I wouldn’t know about America.

Right lane is for cruising.

Any lanes to the left are for overtaking, and you move back to the right after passing.

Of course it depends on how heavy the traffic is, but if you’re not willing to move faster than the cars on your right, CHANGE LANES.

People driving in the middle lane when there’s nobody on the right are a pet peeve of mine.

Edit: pasting this below, since people seem to be unaware of the actual rules.

Edit2: This is UK, flip left with right for almost every other country.

Well that’s embarrassing. I totally missed the community, guess now I have to sub.

It’s not the judiciary who needs to change the government.

Its the fucking apathetic people of the USA, who by this point are so indoctrinated and polarised by social media and news sources with agendas that they’ll keep allowing politicians to get away with making bank while pointing at every single thing they see in front of them, except when facing a mirror.

Don’t worry, the rest of the western world will soon follow suit.

Ah, a Desire Path. Love to see them!

This. Both parties are 100% pro-money, everything else is just aesthetics.

There’s something fishy about it.

Reddit has broken me. I was expecting a rickroll

Since we’re being extra pedantic, what I said was:

As long as the tanker weights less than the weight of all that water it displaced, it will float.

This is factually true, and you didn’t disprove it.

As for “boat wall sticking out of the water”, that’s just grasping at straws man. If that boat is fully waterproof, like a submarine, the definition holds up. Or if you consider that water entering the boat adds to the boat weight, then again it will hold true as it will weigh more than the water it displaces.

The bane of shipping is that a lot of money goes to shipping air around :)

Well… When you put one of those huge tankers in the water, it will move a LOT of water out of the way.

As long as the tanker weights less than the weight of all that water it displaced, it will float.

As you keep loading up the tanker with more cargo, it will go deeper into the water right? But this means that it is pushing more water out of the way (the water that used to be where the boat now is), which balances out the weight because that creates more buoyancy.

A rock, on the other hand, is heavier than the water that it displaces, so it sinks like a tanker whose front fell off.

Where on earth did you hear this?

It’s happened to me more than once that I missed my exit on an unfamiliar roundabout, and what you do is you keep going around and exit through the right exit in the next loop.

It’s embarrassing, but perfectly legal.

Just make sure you pull to the left/inner lane (if there are multiple lanes in the roundabout), and move to the outer lane only when your exit is coming up. A pox on people who keep to the outer lane when they’re not taking the exit.

“This comparison appears to be unintentional”

I use it to speed up my work.

For example, I can give it a database schema and ask it for what I need to achieve and most of the time it will throw out a pretty good approximation or even get it right on the first go, depending on complexity and how well I phrase the request. I could write these myself, of course, but not in 2 seconds.

Same with text formatting, for example. I regularly need to format long strings in specific ways, adding brackets and changing upper/lower capitalization. It does it in a second, and really well.

Then there’s just convenience things. At what date and time will something end if it starts in two weeks and takes 400h to do? There’s tools for that, or I could figure it out myself, but I mean the AI is just there and does it in a sec…
