In English, it is Saint James.
Strangely enough, both James and Diego are linguistic descendants of Jacob. Each has its own tortured history of pronunciation changes over the last 2 or 3 millennia.
Yacob = Jacobus = Jacomus = James
Yacob = Iago = Diego


@curbstickle@anarchist.nexus This is a very reasonable approach. Many people don’t appreciate the effort involved to be a moderator, so let me just say thank you for your work here!


I would expect the job wasn’t just “we’ll pay you drive around non-stop for 9 hours/day”. I bet it was probably more like “use this car for your commute and stuff, but be sure to have it up to 6km in X weeks” or something like that.
It would probably take a long time to run up 6k on a dyno, completely occupying that dyno for just one car. Doubt that would have been worth the cost of one (or multiple) dynos.

So, if we have the choice of something 90% open and 10% closed, versus 100% closed, you’re saying the first option is invalid to even desire, because it isn’t 100% open.
Wow. Just, wow.

Ah yes, that makes sense; thank you.


poorly structured,
yes, that’s bad
requires too many attempts to get a mildly useful block.
yes, that’s bad
more verbose,
How is that bad? I can’t count how many times I’ve revisited my work a year or more later, and wondered what I was thinking, having taken 2 minutes to parse something dense that I wrote, and then thought “why didn’t I make this a little clearer at the time?”
Eh, I removed the SIM chip from my 2015 Nissan Leaf. Took about 15 minutes with a screwdriver and YouTube.
