  • I have been living in Vancouver's downtown east side (de facto epicentre of drug use) for nearly a decade and this is the first I've heard of the programme. If it's been on for a while there's been no change. If it get reversed there will still be no change

  • Props on the nature subscription, I had a subscription with physical copies that were fun to thumb through to really get a scope on my lack of understanding of everything in the world.

    Why acedemic journals? Each article are all bleeding edge experimentation and theory that only the authors a handful of people really understand.

    O'Reilly has a great subscription option and their books are very comprehensive and easy to read.

  • Depends how you look at the numbers. While there's definitely some positive increase in the in red states with a modest sub-1% growth rate, they saw a 2% growth rate previously. So on its face it looks like a positive increase but it's still a negative trend with a -50% reduction of the base line

    Conversely, blue states were seeing a -0.5% growth rate but have tightened that to -0.05% so that's a 10x increase over baseline while still seeing a population decline

  • If you're already using an esp32 why not just get a simple ultrasonic sensor and measure flow on an indoor inlet pipe? You may need to know the pressure (probably 1.7 kPa) and temperature but that should be possible to calibrate against your meter readings

    Then your project just becomes a simple pipe clamp that can be indoors

  • This just seems to be detecting if the browser is Firefox. The function is even named isGecko which is Mozilla's browser engine used by Firefox. Edge, IE (Trident) don't return true from isGecko

    Unless I'm missing something I don't see where the delay is added

  • It's not really like they are storing DNA sequences anyways. They use a genotyping array which just reads ~650k single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs).

    An analogy would be 23andme has a 6.4mil page book of DNA for a single customer but they only know the position and letter of single character on every tenth page. Sure it's enough to identify someone (You can confidently use 50 SNPs to identify these days) but it's not like 23andme was ever storing a whole genome

  • Fahrenheit is Celsius - 32 then divided by 1.8 which is not an easy conversion luckily its also 9/5ths

    The trick I found out was to subtract 32 from Fahrenheit then divide by 9 then multiply by 5.

    The other trick, you subtract 10% from your Celsius times by 2, then add 32 but this one doesn't reverse well because you have to add 1/9th
