I see. Why not just limit the speed to that of a fast walking / slow running human and/or fine those who would ride carelessly enough to bump so people would have to remember deciding to ride means taking responsibility? Maybe also ban using smartphone while riding.
I imagine there is also a real concern that a lot of these things are using Lithium batteries from no-name companies that cannot be tracked down and held responsible if there is an explosion.
Was also sold one by my dentist. Turns out you still have to floss so it was just another thing I paid for at the dentist that I didn't really need. Cool.
try alternately flossing, then using the waterpik, or vice versa. You’ll find that either way, the second modality dislodges food particles left behind by the first. I take that as evidence that both > one > neither in terms of dental health and this of course assumes you then also brush your teeth.
I can’t recall where but I read something about southern US rice (especially Texas) having high levels of arsenic. California rice was reported as safer
On cotton fields lead arsenate was used as a pesticide to kill boll weevils. Some of that land now is rice fields. USA rice is marked Product of USA to differentiate from foreign crop. California grown is marked California to differentiate it from US south grown rice.
The incentives at meta around code production are all wrong. The team behind this is absolutely gearing this around lines of code and number of diffs produced. This'll just be another codegen tool creating another mountain of code that is difficult to debug.
Anyone else feel a little weird reading the section about exercise?

It's a little depressing that despite a good diet and exercise, he had a slightly shorter than average lifespan. When I put in the effort to eat well and exercise, I know I certainly have the mindset that it will extend my life. I hope that at the least he felt strong and healthy.
