It’s a “choice,” but the extremely strong default is a sedentary lifestyle. Many people have to actively fight that default to overcome it, day in and day out, and it’s hard.

Well, there are two ways to get population - babies and immigration.

The Cold War-era guidance I’ve seen online said that the main threat is aggregate fallout in the first few days, and that it doesn’t take all that much mass and distance to attenuate the radiation. So if you are in a basement surrounded by

Honestly that seemed really high to me. I went to my first funeral at 41. I did go to a couple of viewings/wakes before that. I’m not religious, and I guess I just don’t know enough people who would invite me to a funeral.

I don't have any concrete examples. But I will say that I have literally never used !g with Kagi or felt any inclination to. I agree about prior engines. I tried DDG for a short period but it felt like junk, and same for Bing. With Bin

Have you tried Kagi? I’ve set all my devices to use it, and I’m at the point where I get annoyed when something goes to Google by mistake and I see crappy results. Kagi just gives much better results.

It sounds like you are basing this on a single decision by a single judge facing a pretty unique situation. Delaware still has the most certainty, by far. You are much better off there the vast majority of the time. Delaware has a court (th

Agreed. It could be some mix too (e.g. heavy LLM “assistance”). It’s sad that these days everything is suspect.

I only rarely encounter people who use Google Docs, but when I do it’s a huge pain if you care about preserving the formatting at all.

Honestly Senator Coons is a good guy acting in his constituents’ interest, and this is not based on campaign donations from corporations or patent trolls. He represents a small district home to a big pharmaceutical company, and that is also

One of the points in the article is that he made many bets, some of them panned out really well, others didn't, but on the whole he set Microsoft on a really good path. Buying Yahoo would have been a bet that didn't work out, prob

I've seen this too, in the northeast US. I didn't go to our family doctor of 10+ years for 18 months during COVID-19. When I called for a new appointment, they said I had was no longer a patient and had to wait at least 90 days fo

Ugh. These are rarely as good as real keyboard in my experience, and they take up space on your desk. I play competitively and I still have never found a use for these - real keyboards all the way IMO.

Agreed. I like my Leopold FC660C too but the Topre switches can’t don’t even come close to today’s quiet/lubricated mechanical switches. My custom Python M60 board feels significantly better to type on and is far quieter than the Topre

I run a blog for an organization. We do one post per business day on average, with typically around 3 posters. I set it up years ago with Django/Wagtail/Puput and it has happily chugged along ever since. I can’t imagine how annoyi

It's already there. I've been trying, and failing, to convince my wife that we don't need a $7,000 "real" diamond for a ring she wants, and that a <$1000 lab-created diamond is better. Not only is it cheaper, but

Completely agreed. Beyond that , the cost of adding a headphone jack is not the price of the physical component. It’s the fact that it forces the phone to be bulkier in one dimension or another. There is less space for other components.

I keep coming back to this one too. It’s just a really well done movie, and I still sometimes notice new details when re-watching it.

Yeah. Somehow the Hobbit movies have all of the ingredients but just don’t come together.

I don’t know why you got downvoted, you’re absolutely right. It’s very rewatchable.

You’re getting downvoted but it’s true. A lot of these suits are patent trolls, and a lack of secrecy mostly hurts the victims, not the aggressors. If you think it’s bad that you got sued by a patent troll, wait until the court makes you re
