    Where is that space coming from?

    You can literally add separated light rail in the center and bike lanes next to the sidewalk and there would still be two car lanes left, one for each direction.

    What about areas where buildings are too close to the street to allow this?

    This street is too narrow to add a dedicated sidewalk, right?

    Which is why the blue square sign is there: The speed limit on this street is walking pace and pedestrians have priority on the entire road.

    Therefore: Put bicycle lanes wherever possible, reduce the speed limit where it isn’t.

    Placebos work even when you knows it’s a placebo though. Pointing out something is a placebo is important because many are at best overpriced scams (homeopathy) and at worst actively harmful (chiropracty). The culture behind many placebos is also rife with pseudoscience and advocates against seeking out genuine care, so you should ensure nobody gets invested into placebos past a certain point.

    One can make an informed decision regarding taking placebos if and only if one knows it’s a placebo, else one will be scammed and/or harmed.








  • The goal of emulation is to make the console work for every game that was released on it.

    After all, if one or more games don’t work, the emulation cannot be accurate. And with imaccurate emulation, how can you ensure your other games are correctly emulated? In fact, if you know the emulator isn’t perfect - which it isn’t if some games have issues - how can you know any game is correctly emulated? You can test the game but it would take an infinite time to test everything. If you only do a few runs of the game, how do you know you haven’t missed anything?

    In other terms: The language L containing every perfectly emulated game is undecidable.





  • No it hasn’t.

    The concentration camps in the east, like Auschwitz, were almost exclusively extermination camps meant to wipe out whoever entered on an industrial scale. Gaza is not an extermination camp.

    The “normal” concentration camps weren’t significantly better. Around 10% - 50% of inmates died, depending on the camp - be it from starvation, illness, medical experimentation or just live target practice.

    Is every single Gazan enslaved and forced to build Israeli weapons and does Israel prevent Gazans from leaving under threat of collective punishment?

    Gaza is the dictionary definition of a ghetto, not a concentration camp.
