In Sydney, it's generally the case for established neighbourhoods close to the CBD. Walkability in inner city suburbs like Balmain, Leichhardt, Rozelle, any of the eastern suburbs really is super high.

Contrast this to urban-sprawl created suburbs like Marsden Park and a few of the Hills district burbs and it's the opposite - barely any public transport and next to no community infrastructure.

There's a good channel on YT that documents this sort of stuff here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JDhbm-t3dXU


I have used lodash/fp successfully in Javascript projects at current and previous job. Not sure about the TypeScript support.


It's recently been re-optioned after the initial deal fell through to a company called Six Studios: https://www.tor.com/2022/02/03/riftwar-cycle-series-in-devel...


The article also mentions this:

> February 10 was the last day Wordle was still available at its old site.

Which doesn't appear to be the case, it is still accessible at the powerlanguage address.


No it isn't. The powerlanguage address [1] redirects to the New York Times's version [2].

[1] https://www.powerlanguage.co.uk/wordle/

[2] https://www.nytimes.com/games/wordle/index.html


Picking at nits I know, but it is available via that site, not at it.

And via a cookie wall. From a quick scan of NYT's policy I got the impression clicking "reject" might only reject their direct tracking not that of 3rd parties, though I didn't have time to look in detail first time I was redirected, and I've not yet found the right combination of free time and inclination to nip back since, so I could have come to the wrong conclusion there.


That URL currently redirects to the NYT version of the game, although it's possible that browsers may continue to cache and display a previously-requested version of the page contents (avoiding a redirect, at least while the cache remains valid).


That's what I've got on my phone, hasn't redirected to new york times and still running the version on powerlanguage


The future appears to be unevenly distributed. Some get redirected some don’t.


Several people were redirected to the NYT version before I was, as discussed in my Wordle group. I suspect they did this as a gradual transition to validate the migration. I wasn’t redirected until yesterday.


If you like the minimalist rendering style, you can buy prints that are similar from https://routelines.com/


Another very deep hole to fall into if you're into log cabin builds is Nik Rijavec's build here: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCMjAl_0yeKwUAQ2A3tQFcnA

And for the cabin/upcycling vibe, Modern Self Reliance: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UClhInAMlPM1UcjD8lI4o7UA

And for more solitary living-off-the-land type stuff, Shawn James at My Self Reliance: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCIMXKin1fXXCeq2UJePJEog


These are the two that I came to post. James is just getting started on a whole new cabin (he's moving) so I'm pretty excited to see him apply the leassons he's learned.

It looks like Medium is opening their paywall modal based on viewed articles (and cookies). Therefore, you could try private browsing.


can confirm. opening link in incognito worked for me.


To your last point: have Spain changed their position since they said they would not veto a Scottish application to rejoin [1]? I haven’t seen anything to suggest they have.

1. https://www.theguardian.com/politics/2017/apr/02/spain-drops...


The article is over 2 years old and Alfonso Dastis isn't the current foreign minister.

In any event Scottish Independence isn't going to happen anytime soon with Boris Johnson shutting down any possibility of an Indy Ref 2 last week.


So how then do you know that Spain will veto a Scottish application to rejoin? Have Spain produced a more up to date statement changing their position? If not, then are you not just spreading FUD?

edit: Also, Johnson shutting down the possibility of a second independence referendum is not the be all and end all: the Scottish government could pass legislation for one without a section 30, which would likely be challenged in court by the UK government. If the supreme court upholds the right for Scots to vote in a referendum, then it goes ahead.


> So how then do you know that Spain will veto a Scottish application to rejoin?

It is what I suspect after living in Spain as an Expat near Gibraltar for 3-4 years. I wasn't aware the official position has changed, however the Spanish Politics is all over the place especially after Vox (a Nationalist / Anti-Immigration party) did quite well in Andalusia.

> Have Spain produced a more up to date statement changing their position?

I think it is irrelevant and I qualified why in my previous post.

> If not, then are you not just spreading FUD?

It is simply a political opinion based on what I have observed after previously living there.

> edit: Also, Johnson shutting down the possibility of a second independence referendum is not the be all and end all: the Scottish government could pass legislation for one without a section 30, which would likely be challenged in court by the UK government.

Boris Johnson is going curtain the Supreme Courts interference with how the Commons work so I wouldn't count on that. If one is to believe David Starkey (who is a historian) he believes that the Supreme court shouldn't exist and is something invented by Tony Blair. Dominic Cummings is doing a shake up of the Civil Service. So I wouldn't count on any of that being relevant for too much longer.


Some other issues that I don't think have been mentioned:

- A lot of the trees are eucalypts which are super oily and incredibly flammable. Some have been known to explode when they get too hot.

- It's been getting incredibly windy, which is taking burning embers far ahead of the main firefront and starting advance fires. Recently, a firey was crushed to death after the fire engine was blown over on top of him the winds are that strong.
