Thanks for being skeptical, looked it up because of that. Looks like the primary study people cite is this one, which indicates around 65% of people filing for bankruptcy cite a medical contributor of their bankruptcy. That includes medical

The person you replied to specifically listed multiple studies that do account for socioeconomic factors. Take a look at the second paper, and in the introduction you’ll see that they did sub group analysis for multiple socioeconomic factor

Brilliant write up, glad you made the effort. Trying to understand better where the JWT vulnerability was here, you said: “So you could log in with my username and password, grab the JWT, and then send that along with your request.” Am I un

I mean, as someone who's played drums from a very young age (30+ years now), I disagree with that description of how playing drums works. I went ahead and looked up that phrase, and it seems to be popular in the last couple of years, b

Nah, it's fine to be nitty. If you glance at my comment again, you'll see my usage devolve from A to amp halfway through, my brain can't help but write what it sounds like to me. Yes though, ampacity is the correct word (for

It's not dangerous in practice. Reading through NEC in the US, there's plenty of leeway for mixing ampacity ratings on circuits, within certain limits. For example, it's fine to have 10x 15A duplex on a 20A circuit. It result

Just wanted to say that I checked out your app, and it’s really impressive! When building it, did you bootstrap by asking it what developers like me would want out of a site like that?

This is not true since the vast majority of electric whole home heating units sold today are heat pumps, which are up to 300% efficient [1]. If the power generation and distribution is 33% or higher efficiency, then a heat pump will outperf

It took me a couple of readings to make sure I understood what you were saying, thanks for the reply. I think my misunderstanding was from not knowing Julia and thinking about promotion of values as having a permanent effect on the variable

Wouldn’t that last example be incorrect mathematically? For example, if the Int8 was -10 and the UInt16 was 10, what would that casting do? Would a better promotion be Int32 for both? Just curious, Julia is a language I’ve been very interes

Hemochromatosis is one, I was suspected to have it when I was younger and regular blood donations was an effective way to reduce my blood iron. Turns out I don't actually have the condition (it's genetic and doesn't go away a

Haha, this happened to me for the first time recently. Asked a question, didn’t get any answers, ended up updating my post with the answer I eventually found. Even had a couple of responses thanking me for the follow up. Five years later, r
