Similarly, I got a "Zugang Steig B" (Entranceway B).

Maybe adding a button to skip the question: "not really a street".


Great idea! For now I quickly excluded "Zugang Steig"


America has low car ownership rates compared to western Europe, possibly due to income inequality. See this 2012 article.

> The U.S. is ranked 25th in world by number of passenger cars per person...The Carnegie paper explains that car ownership rates are closely tied to the size of the middle class.


Huh okay. I knew there was larger inequality and considered writing that in my comment as a possible reason, but I was also under the impression that you are going to have a hard time living without a car in the USA and figured those people would sacrifice other things instead (not spend any money on healthcare, for example). If they just don't have one at all, despite the car culture, that makes the income inequality hit even harder than it would in Europe I guess.

After trying[1] multiple[2] alternatives[3][4], I built this to keep track of who speaks when and for how long at a daily standup. The question of "who's next?" is no longer asked.

Team members are saved to local storage so you can re-use for the next standup.

Try this:

  lynx -dump -hiddenlinks=listonly https://laconicml.com/computer-science-curriculum-youtube-videos/ | grep youtube.com | perl -pe 's/.*http/http/' | youtube-dl --batch-file -


Thanks, this works! It fails when one video isn't found, but gets 60% of the way there. I'll see if I can exclude that one and get it to keep going


Although https://www.willus.com/k2pdfopt/ is meant for reformatting PDFs to view on e-readers, it does do a reasonable job of extracting text via OCR and storing as a PDF layer. The underlying engine can be either https://github.com/tesseract-ocr/tesseract or http://jocr.sourceforge.net/


The article seems to summarize, but doesn't name, Alexander Zevin's book, Liberalism at Large: The World According to the Economist ( https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/52105758-liberalism-at-l... ).


Working on a better way to edit calendar events: finding conflicts, grouping series of events together, etc.


Yes, the intersection is alive and well without traffic signals. That's my favorite intersection in Graz, the five-way intersection of Zinzendorfgasse, Halbärthgasse, Schubertstrasse, Leechgasse, and Beethovenstrasse. The Google Maps street view has a nice view of pedestrians, bikes, and cars sharing the intersection. Buses also use the intersection, but I couldn't find any in the Google Maps view.

My second favorite intersection is on the left side of Erzherzog-Johann-Brücke, where pedestrians, bikes, trams, and cars intersect with only one traffic sign (northwards on Neutorgasse).

Learning that there are people who have favorite intersections really made my day.
