and wildfires, see PG&E in CA.

they're expecting to spend 10B burying lines in the mountains.

New england is pretty much one big rock garden/shelf where you're not digging through soil in alot of places but rock ledges.


come up to maine and see how much pruning the power companies do. there's a reason high wind and heavy snow storms trash power lines

As an adolescent in Fayette (Maine), I had great fun helping out our neighbors with summertime tree-pruning parties. FWIW we had few power issues during winter, and our winters frequently featured 4-6 feet of snow cover.

ahhh, the old "I expect everyone to read my mind about extremely nuanced and specific things, and those who can't are idiots" mentality at play


Essentially this is a good example of parametrized tests, just supercharged with generated inputs.

So if you already have parametrized tests, you're already halfway there.


Yes, when I saw eg Golang people use table driven tests like this, I was wondering why nobody seems to have told them about generating these tables automatically..


correct, I've done this at past places to verify rules engine output for variety of inputs.


to be honest, you;'d have the same issues with that said magic wand and normalcy, because hearing aids do amplify sound and allow you to hear everythig.

You'd have the same issue, if not more, with background noise, group settings and context acquisition

Processing input is the hard part, if you're already having issues, that isn't going to go away


If they've been deaf from infancy, basically the entire hearing center of the brain is non-existent. So they'd be hearing sound, but processing it into meaningful content would not happen, if at all. So basically, its like having a cacophany of sound that you can't filter and process...

As for others, one thing hearing people, particularly monolingual hearing people, don't understand very well is that hearing != understanding. Just because you hear a sound doesn't automatically equate to it having meaning. The default for many people is to just SPEAK LOUDER and slower, which does not help in the vast majority of encounters


And rather than fix the issues with revocation, its being shuffled off to the users.

Good example of enshittification


can also be a linear algorithm that does N+1 queries. ORMs can be very good at hiding this implementation detail


> a linear algorithm that does N+1 queries.

That's what quadratic means.

No, N+1 is still linear.
