Bevel makes disposable safety razors for travel. Yes disposable double edged safety razors. They are quite nice nice. It's a plastic handle with standard double edged blade in there but it's non removable.

I stand corrected! I do suppose I could also get a travel safety razor that comes apart into 3 parts (as opposed to a single piece with a butterfly opening) and pack them separately. Of course that could mean some blade wastage: I'm rarely in one location long enough to use up all 5 in a pack.

I was looking into thumb-key. What differences are there? I noticed the same layout is available

1. Thumb-key intentionally doesn't support gestures other than basic taps and swipes. MessagEase uses these quite heavily for "borrowing" keys from other layers without having to switch to them.

2. Thumb-key bakes a lot of decisions into the layout. If you're a pure english-speaker then you tend to have a decent variety of layouts available, but as a swede, having to choose between having Å/Ä/Ö available, having convenient access to special symbols, or having convenient access to numbers is a bit of a non-starter, especially when there is no actual conflict in the layout.

As also a swede I find some keys are forgotten in the swedish layout. The letters aren't in our alphabet but that does not mean we don't use ü, é, à and such. And I find no way of doing dead keys in Thumb-key. Maybe there will be more donations to fuel some additions to Thumb-key now thanks to MessagEase sudden rentseeking.

Will definitely donate, I'm not pro subscription. Especially not this way, locking in users by waiting for them to learn your keyboard layout and then lock the keyboard behind a paywall.

I realized I had an old apk installed and grabbed the newest thumb-key from the site, and it does indeed have a ME-compatible layout now so I don't need to relearn everything. Not having gesture-based capitalization still irks me though.

Nowadays twisted supports this syntax:

    async def doIt():
        responseBody = await makeRequest("GET", "/users")
        return json.loads(responseBody)

"long for nor fear the next day" can be interpreted as to fulfill your responsibilities so that you don't fear the next day.

It's more plausible to me that the movie was a product of its times rather than the cause of the trend. Maybe there was more interest in wine during that time, and more discussion about the different types. It would explain why a movie centered around wine was developed and became a box office success.

Sideways is about wine roughly as much as Fight Club is about grown men fighting each other in a club.

The book Sideways by Rex Pickett was released in 2004, and obviously written before that.

Presumably the rant against Merlot is in the book, so perhaps it is less likely to just be a product of the times.

It seems like a logistical problem and lack of public restrooms. There is no easy solution. Let's say you are driving in an urban area, where can you go? Maybe there's traffic too. Where are you going to park? Or you are in a rural area and the next gas station is miles away. Your options are clearly limited.

There are a number of commercial solutions available which Amazon could provide for their drivers. With a little planning and training it could be kept sanitary.

Two issues with this methodology. First as he states there is a difference between talent and IQ, this does not seem to tease out the difference.

You can imagine someone with alot of experience but slower thinking speed doing just as well as someone with less experience and faster thinking speed.

Second this is also relative to the problem being asked. With the tic tac toe one, you can also think about someone who maybe has been on leetcode alot and has no actual work experience and is generally slow, to be fast on this particular problem since they happen to have studied that before or have exposure to it.

You can also imagine the opposite someone who is really fast at thinking and has experience, but they haven't looked at binary trees in 10 years so they may be slow thinking about a particular subject.

You should care about memory safety in any language. The point is to reduce bugs and have more maintainable code, that doesn't introduce memory errors when something is changed. Or when making something concurrent.

Now of course if you use a garbage collected language, then you aren't in control of memory, so it's less of an issue. But if you are using C++ for high performance applications such as gaming, then you are in control of it and need memory safety.

Producing food makes more sense. Certain types of food is very cheap. Housing and real estate though, it seems is much more expensive and difficult to provide.

Housing is actually very easy to do. And should be insanely cheap to do in the US. You could build entire cities from scratch while providing jobs.
