A lot of people live in apartment complexes and this won't cover those.

Capacity and dwell time.

27 (soon to be 30) trains per hour on the Jubilee line for instance, hundreds of people can get on and off each one.

I don't know why I was downvoted for just asking a question.

I don't get it. Suppose this scenario:

- Instead of big formations, replace each wagon with an electric minibus. - Instead of stopping in all stations, each minibus stops in, lets say 3 or 4. - Each passenger checks into the bus dinamically assigned to their stop. - Minibuses can surpass each other.

You have less dwell time, each ride is reduced to one third of the time.

Your capacity drops dramatically, by at least an order of magnitude if not more. The Jubilee line can do 30 trains per hour, 875 people per train is 26250 people per hour. Say an average minibus can hold 26 people, you'll literally need a thousand busses an hour to move everyone. And yes it all runs at capacity especially during rush hour.

Oh, "Collected Works" - for a moment I thought this was a book with a wacky name.

Oops! Fixed.

Just look at precedent, and there is no reason to think it would be reciprocal.

Using Windows as a python dev is a complete pain.

This useful but has a big "written by claude" feel to it.

Yup. Phrases like "The Trap", "The Reality", "The Token Counter", "Batch Billing Lag", "The Loophole" all indicate markdown style thought processes that divide up the meat and potatoes of the idea into H1/H2 sections; also quoting words that people wouldn't normally quote ("stitching" together a codebase) is another telltale.

what exactly does this mean? claude was sitting next to them watching them then wrote up the report? they put in lots of personal details and experience in the story, it's obviously not written by claude and it's very rude to accuse someone without evidence.

If you can't see that this post was obviously "enhanced" with AI then I don't know what to tell you. They had a small anecdote about their experience and then asked AI to flesh it out into a multi paragraph post.

I mean, the cute section titles are a dead giveaway.

Yeah no, it's against the guidelines. This kind of behavior should be called out as HN is a place for curious conversation between humans, not LLMs.

Nice. It would be good if winetricks could install the ReactOS userland, explorer.exe and friends barely exist in upstream wine.

There were some great efforts to build these out in ReactOS a few years ago.

Its actionable by doing things for yourself, not for the purpose of meeting people.

When I say doing things, I mean things out in the world.

During those you might chat to people casually.

People like people that do things and turn up, so many people do little and aren't interested in going out and turning up to things.

Do stuff and you become more interesting.

Mostly people talk about themselves so ask them what they do and be interested, when they ask you what you do you will have done a bunch of stuff.

Get out there and enrich yourself with experience, make yourself too busy to be lonely.

The chance of rank and file employees getting anything has always been small now its smaller.
