Yes, iirc Valve popularized the concept in the west with TF2, Dota 2 and CS:GO.

I believe that was implemented for people getting the mobile version after having played on another platform and not wanting to unlock everything again?
But yeah, you can certainly go that route, making it all mechanics and no numbers
Largely mechanics, apart from the need to unlock jokers.
Fun for a game so centered around numbers to not actually be numbers
Heavy on the sauce
By the power of podcasts, I have become equipped to handle the Sisyphean daily tasks. I used to dread them, now I don't mind them at all.
Without actually knowing how much constructing the physical buttons cost, I would guess that the real savings are in process optimization - if all you have for the interface is a screen, then you don't need to have the interface design done before constructing the car - you can parallelize these tasks.
Insufficient as far as justifications go, but understandably lucrative.
3.2 is like less than 10 minutes on a bike, which can easily carry more than a week's worth of groceries with the right type of equipment.
Anything Turing-complete is a powerful tool, but the reason people are reacting negatively is because of how much of the wrong tool it is.
- Does an excel-based solution offer adequate runtime performance? No
- Does an excel-based solution offer adequate write concurrency? No
- Does an excel-based solution offer appropriate data durability guarantees? No
Basically the only saving grace of Excel-based solutions is that they are built in tools that finance workers comprehend, and that is quite simply not enough. To base systems at this scale on Excel is criminally negligent.
That blows. Glad the infrastructure helps your chair get around, though. Also, every biker not using a car gives you more space, so that's an additional plus
Sorry, a car can't take me across the ocean. From now on, all of my trips will be made by airplane as this is the only vehicle that can cover all of my needs.
I run studded tyres during winter, but the city also uses a clearing technique where they first clear off all of the snow from the bike lanes and then salt them to prevent ice. This kind of wreaks havoc on your components through corrosion, but leaves the lanes highly usable throughout winter.
I use the studded tyres as an insurance policy against any poorly cleared spots. They are usually pretty good about it, but sometimes the weather will just be bad.
I've been told that fat bikes do better on full snow, but I've never ridden one myself so I can't confirm it.
I believe there was a 100% tariff in place pre-Trump meltdown on Chinese EVs in the U.S, making them less viable in that market. The EU also tariffs them heavily, which is quite a pity.
