Each week, Netflix releases a list of the Top 10 films and TV shows dominating the platform, and for the week of July 14, we noticed that not one, but two seasons of a TV show called Sullivan's Crossing are sitting among the most-watched titles. The poster for the series features two actors I'm pretty well-acquainted with: Scott Patterson and Chad Michael Murray. They both co-starred in Gilmore Girls, although Murray's stint was just for a few episodes early in the series before he got his real

Bus Bunching

news.ycombinator.com Greg Ross 2025-12-31 22:24:02

When two or more buses are scheduled at regular intervals on the same route, planners may expect that each will make the same progress, pausing at each stop for the same interval (1). But if Bus B is delayed by traffic congestion (2), it incurs a penalty: Because it arrives late to the next stop, it will pick up some passengers who’d planned to take Bus C (3). Accommodating these passengers delays Bus B even longer, putting it even further behind schedule. Meanwhile, Bus C begins to make unusual

To do this, Aeneas takes in partial transcriptions of an inscription alongside a scanned image of it. Using these, it gives possible dates and places of origins for the engraving, along with potential fill-ins for any missing text. For example, a slab damaged at the start and continuing with ... us populusque Romanus would likely prompt Aeneas to guess that Senat comes before us to create the phrase Senatus populusque Romanus, “The Senate and the people of Rome.” This is similar to how Ithaca w
