Gemini and Copilot are often overly cautious with their guardrails on generating anything violent or misinformation, although super easy to bypass in most cases

That's without considering the time to pack up your bags etc - ie there's a fixed cost as well as the cost per room moved

To minimise the total societal cost, only one person has to leave their room, and by that (or any) one person not making the sacrifice, the average suffering increases across all of median, mean and mode...

It's the opposite situation from where one person can get huge gains to the detriment of many others - eusocially it makes sense to do what's best for the average person

What the US has that Europe doesn't is protected former trackbeds - European governments go around salting the earth after closing a railway so when they want to reopen it in 30 years they either can't or have to spend billions. The US can just reopen it.

Yeah, of course it varies place to place but I think for the majority of at least somewhat developed countries and urban areas in less developed countries 50Mbps is a reasonable figure for "normal home internet" - even at 25Mbps you're looking at 4½ hours for 50GB which is very doable if you leave it going while you're at work or just in the background over the course of an evening

Edit: I was curious and looked it up. Global average download is around 50-60Mbps and upload is 10-12Mbps.

I knew a couple of parents/teachers/other adults (can't remember exactly who) from out leek/stoke way who said that growing up but I'm still yet to find any as an adult

Where did they all go?

It's not reaching, it's tearing

Ok, I'll be sure to use my automatic mechanical watch to check my decent speed and heart rate on my ski trip... Oh wait...

Personally I have a Garmin Fenix for the 3 week battery life but let's not pretend that a mechanical watch and a smartwatch fill even close to the same market segment... It's like telling someone who dropped 3k on a mountain bike to buy a car instead as it's faster on the highway: ok, but not comparable and not relevant

You can at least disable it per-occurance by right clicking the line number and telling it not to break on that line

Based? Based on what?

I feel this is worse than double though because it's a library type rather than a basic type but I guess ceil and floor are also library functions unlike toInt

As you say, it's not unreasonable for them to charge more for riskier insurance, so it's not even like cutting the riskiest x% would or should boost profits... If they think the risk has grown, raise the premium at the next renewal opportunity and their profits should be just fine even if they have to pay out
