I suspect it is fairly popular. Some of my friends who use Clubhouse talk about listening to groups of tea farmers in China talk about tea. Voice chat is very popular in China anyway, since it is easy and accessible to people who have not l

Exactly. I don't want to feel like I'm acting amorally when I want to water my garden. If I go over my allotment of naturally provided water, then I should start paying desalination rates, but I should not feel bad because I'

Using old technology does not have to mean doing the same work. I write a lot of C for embedded systems, but it remains fun and exciting despite the language being 40 years old and the chips I program 15 years old. The systems I create are

Did they even complete an FMEA on this product? When I first saw the headline a couple months back it was obvious from looking at product photos that they have a serious design flaw. The wrap around, unguarded track looks great. The safety

Thank you for the explanation, that makes perfect sense. So... the energy content in wax is about 45MJ/kg. An 8 in ch taper candle weights about 40g. This means it contains about 1.8 MJ of energy. Of that 40g about 20 nanograms turned

It would require an advance in theory. When I took a graph theory course it fascinated me how the Ramsey theory problem goes from paper and pencil complexity to beyond computing power in two steps (R(3,3) = 6, R(4,4) = 18, R(5,5)=(43..48?))

Indded it feels like that. It's like you are paying with your data and here is where you choose the plan you want. Oh, you don't want the pro plan but would rather the free plan? It has less features.

I guess so? I'm not sure if the intent is there or if they realize that the holidays cost too much and need to return some.

One of my friends works at Costco. He says that before the holidays they sell a lot of furniture and after the holidays they see a lot of furniture returns.

Oh, I stayed in one in Xiamen like that. AirBnB did not make it clear on their website that in Xiamen AirBnB's are illegal (some cities in China they are legal and have a deal to do hotel registration with the police for you). We arriv

In my work it is very common to make the memory map a little smaller than it has to be. If you can't ship an initial version in a reduced footprint you will have no hope of shipping future bugfixes.

I lost about 20 pounds since the start of the pandemic. The biggest change I noticed was that I stopped over eating at lunch. Since I am home and there are plenty of snacks (both healthy and not) I don't feel any need to eat too much a

One thing with Shopify that drives the high abandonment rate is that shipping rates are usually not calculated until the second page of checkout. On many stores the only way to get a shipping estimate is to add something to a cart and get t
