I see that that works. In this particular case obviously better than "in". I guess I'll use this in the future, but I'm sticking with that this is a bug, not something inherently wrong with using "in".

But it wasn't. I get the same result for this exact query. It seems to be like explained in another answer: Google interprets the "m" as million and the "in" as inch, so it gives you just some conversion for 17 million inches. It's a bit random here how Google interprets things. "17.21 m in" (that one really could mean 17 million inches) is correctly taken as a meter-inch conversion, while "17.21m in" does a conversion from 17.21 meters to kilometers (where are they coming from?).
There's no correct and incorrect here. The help page (https://support.google.com/websearch/answer/3284611) doesn't even mention which word you should use, and it of course depends on the language you use. As a German speaker, I naturally use "in", and that always worked for me (I use this a lot), except for this example.
True. And just as true is that there sure have been a lot of long, time-consuming, non-productive, non-entertaining, maybe even destructive discussions that could have been completely avoided or diverted into a completely different direction if someone would have said "google it" right at the beginning.
One thing that hasn't been mentioned yet is that Lemmy simply is older and better known, and both leads to more communities being created there, which then leads to more content being created there, even if it's kbin users creating that content.
While kbin was only launched a few months ago (April?), Lemmy launched in 2019. Both didn't get much traction before the Reddit blackout, but for the Lemmy users there was more time to create communities which already were there then when kbin users started looking for them. Even those communities that were created on both had a chance of already having a parallel community on Lemmy that possibly was more active (i.e. had at least some posts), so future posters might have decided for the Lemmy one more likely.
And for the "more popular" thing: Lemmy usually was named as the alternative to Reddit, so many Reddit users came to Lemmy, looked for communities they were missing, and created them, possibly before learning of kbin and eventually moving there themselves.
Developer familiarity trumps language trendiness every time.
Developer familiarity is a huge pro, of course. But language trendiness is important, too. You can try to code in an obscure language that nobody knows, but you won't get many useful libraries and frameworks and tools there. You can code in a language that once was popular and has most of the libraries you'll need, but it will be hard to find other developers to hire or, like here, voluntarily engage in your project.
PHP is still popular enough that these won't really be problems here, but there sure are cases where developer familiarity won't beat language trendiness because it will result in much more work or much less helpers.
Did they start later? Where Tesla had an advance was integrating major parts of a self-driving system into actual customer cars and collecting tons of real-world data. The internal research on autonomous cars probably started on most automakers long before Tesla was founded.
I was thinking whether I should add a remark that you can add your Gmail account to outlook.com as well, but I didn't want to over-complicate it. In the end, both Outlook (the program) and outlook.com are mail clients of a sort, the latter being a webmail client.
That's a poor example, as Outlook basically is a mail client and you actually can use it to access your Gmail mails.
Brunnen-Flüelen geht (und dauert mit dem Bummelschiff auch "nur" 40 Minuten), wer aber tatsächlich konkret die 6 km von Brunnen nach Sisikon will, darf zumindest ausserhalb der Touristensaison dann in Flüelen noch umsteigen und nochmal 'ne halbe Stunde fahren.
Nachtrag: Die Zeiten natürlich beachten. In der Nebensaison gibt's genau einmal täglich eine Verbindung, in der Hauptsaison auch nur alle paar Stunden.
The Hummer EV is the single most extreme example of an EV, an abnormal big monster car with an abnormal big monster battery. But still those 2500 lbs mean that it's just about 50% heavier than the Hummer H2 (starting at 6400 lbs vs EV's 9000 lbs), which, though also being an abnormal big monster car, still was much smaller than the EV, which is 13 inch longer and 5 inch wider than the H2's long version.
Technically yes, but the birth certificate for both might be filled with the place of the landing simply.
At least for German law (and probably other ones) that's what de facto would be required: You enter the exact town the child was born in, if known (but when moving 800 km/h over invisible town boundaries, who takes note of in which town you were at the exact moments the two were born?), or the place where the mother sets foot to ground otherwise.
