I don't subscribe to MIT Technology Review. But more accurate hourly forecasts are useful to pedestrians and cyclists, as they can make a trip earlier or later to avoid hazardous weather.
Winter sunlight is incident sunlight during meteorological winter (December 1 through February 28 or 29, as meteorological seasons lead solstices and equinoxes by 3 weeks). Some key characteristics of winter sunlight:
1. Noontime angle of incidence is farthest from overhead. 2. Daily duration of sunlight is shortest. 3. Snow albedo: Accumulated snow reflects much of the light rather than allowing the ground to absorb it.
When a red traffic signal refuses to turn green after a bicycle has been stopped on the induction loop for several minutes, and this particular intersection lacks a pedestrian call button, what do you recommend that a cyclist do?
Chip humans and log their blood pressure and heart rate.
I can think of 666 reasons why likely voters in this country would reject large-scale chipping of humans. "It also forced all people, great and small, rich and poor, free and slave, to receive a mark on their right hands or on their foreheads, so that they could not buy or sell unless they had the mark, which is the name of the beast or the number of its name."--Revelation 13:16-17 (NIV).
Besides, wouldn't the majority end up losing health insurance during winter in northern latitudes? There, daily high temperatures are often below the freezing point of water, causing roads to be dangerous for cyclists.

So, don't want to mess around with the SSD on your T2 equipped (or other Intel) Mac. Simply stick that Linux Install on a fast EXTERNAL drive
Once T2 reaches MacBooks, good luck putting a sleeping MacBook booted to an external drive back in your bag without putting undue stress on the USB connector.
MacBook users switching to System76 will have to start carrying two laptops: one on which to run Xcode or other macOS-exclusive applications and one on which to run X11/Linux applications. In your experience, how practical is it to carry two laptops?
One easy way that most every virtualization package I've seen supports is a USB pass through. The freeware VM packages might throttle this to 100 Mbps speeds
Last I checked, VirtualBox's USB passthrough without the extension pack was limited to USB 1.1. That means 12 Mbps speeds, not 100 Mbps. The extension pack supports newer USB versions, but a commercial use license for the extension pack starts at $5,000. Which virtualization package were you thinking of?
If the goal is to test software on multiple platforms then I'm a bit doubtful one needs to run on the metal anyway. The only things that I can think of that need that kind of access to hardware would be drivers
Virtualization instead of dual booting means you need to buy twice as much RAM: half to run the host and half to run the guest. In addition, last I checked, a developer of an application that uses the GPU would be foolish to rely on performance in a VM as representative of performance on bare metal.
If you don't control both end points though H.264 is now almost universal as long as you're willing to use Cisco's OpenH264 patent licensed binary or one of the many other open source decoders, which is 99.99% of the market. That was as late as 2013 though, so it's only been 5 years since missing codecs actually was an end user problem.
Here's one: Video calling between end users. This requires both sides to have an audio encoder, video encoder, audio decoder, and video decoder for the codec suite used for the call.
As for audio: Apple WebKit appears to support Opus (webrtcHacks).
As for video: Apple WebKit supports only H.264 (webrtcHacks; bug 173141) and therefore doesn't fully conform to WebRTC (RFC 7742 section 5). If one end of a WebRTC video call is an iOS device running Safari or another Apple WebKit wrapper, then the call must use H.264, and the other device must also include a licensed H.264 encoder. Does OpenH264 encode, or is it only a decoder?
P.S. VP8 in WebRTC was added to Apple WebKit 37 days ago (bug 189976), but it may take months for this fix to reach the version of Apple WebKit included with iOS.
Chromecast receivers rely heavily on hardware decoders. Once AV1 silicon is out, I'm almost certain that new Chromecast models will include AV1 decoding.
Adjusted for inflation, the average cost per square-foot has barely changed.
But has the minimum size in square feet that a given city's zoning law allows a home builder to build changed? I seem to remember some cities were fighting the tiny house movement in court.
Basically, you move with the person that makes the most money, right?
It's the golden rule: "He who makes the most gold, makes the rules".
Sexist pig!
I see no sexist asymmetry in cayenne8's comment. As I understand the comment, if he makes more money than she does, he and she ought to live close to where he works. If she makes more money than he does, he and she ought to live close to where she works.

If you ignore it, then years later you create something that's too similar, you run the risk of it still being considered accidental infringement.

You can run Linux in a VM on macOS.
At the cost of dramatically increased swap pressure. please see replies to King_TJ's comment
Why can't you just run Linux in a VM?
You ask the same question as King_TJ's comment. Please see answers there.

A Mac running X11/Linux is the only (legal) way to develop and test macOS and X11/Linux versions of one application on one machine.
The environment does not direct the evolution. [...] 3/ environment exerts some selective pressure
"Direct" is a metaphor for this selective pressure.

Since when? Even if Google has dropped Oracle Database, it's still using Oracle MySQL and Oracle OpenJDK, and now it has to pay Oracle billions of dollars after losing its fair use defense in Oracle v. Google on grounds that Google impeded interoperability rather than pursuing it.
Chromecast receivers rely heavily on hardware decoders. Once AV1 silicon is out, I'm almost certain that new Chromecast models will include AV1 decoding.
VLC media player 3.0.0 reportedly introduces AV1 playback.

Let me guess. You live in Los Angeles.
Citilink in Fort Wayne, Indiana, also runs a hub and spoke arrangement, with all but three lines meeting at the downtown transfer station.
