Just change your number to a 1-900 number, and you're set!

Isn’t this what STIR/SHAKEN was supposed to address?

Pretty sure there was some bill-writing done by companies to call it that, though.

The article was a bit of a rant. But the part that stuck out to me was the irreversibility of Medicare advantage, in some cases. That definitely excludes your last statement as a possible choice. If you’re battling a life-threatening diseas

Probably the advertised inclusion of dental and vision, and for some, the comfort of staying with the same insurance company you had before retirement. There’s also the confusion/difficulty in signing up for Medicare. Apparently it’s n

Not sure what genres it was trained on, but this didn’t match my expectations, haha. https://beatbot.fm/song/9c865b69b68447af96d2a818da1e51b4

I took it as establishing credentials. They didn’t compare your project to their’s, and they offered helpful alternatives.

You could bio-engineer a virus without gain of function, I presume. My point was that a lab leak does not also mean bio-engineering.

A lab leak doesn’t mean gain of function, bio-engineered virus, or other engineering. It just means that the virus was spread via a lab leak. > The October 2021 report said that there was a consensus that Covid-19 wasn’t the result of a

“Low confidence” does not equate to “overwhelming evidence”.

Verbal violence shuts down conversation, allowing the aggressor to dominate the conversation.

Exactly. Zoho offers a slick UI but has a pretty bad record of keeping their products stable and secure.

MS has a few similar tools. MS Bookings is pretty similar, but last I checked was more work to setup for an individual than Calendly. https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoft-365/business/sched... Their mobi

What is this, and how does it relate to the topic?

I’ll check it out. But this seems to approach accessibility as a feature to be turned on or off. Most of what it enables, based on Apple docs, is not just enabled in Windows and many Linux window managers I’ve used, but it’s something that

I switched from windows to macOS, which I’ve been using as my daily driver for the last year or so. Using the touchpad (or maybe the Magic Mouse) is basically a requirement to use “vanilla” macOS. Yes, you can install additional programs to

I agree. Yes, you can support comments using a non-standard method, but the standard needs to include them.

Not in my experience. Handling transformation in e.g. Python doesn't require you to know much about the SQL language variant that the db is using.

Here’s a Twitter thread where a lawyer used their service for a few items. The results are significantly subpar. The noise about criminal referrals is just cover for the fact that their service was so bad, in my opinion. https://

I think the joke is the inscarcity of tech groups that have chosen an aviation-themed .io domain to show off their venture.

Exactly. Being descriptive is how you get a service that does something completely unrelated to its name, later on. Or worse, you end up with 2 services with similar names that do similar things, and users aren’t sure why there are 2, but j

Reminds me of a less-snarky version of Ryland Grace’s paper (from Project Hail Mary). The absolute extremes a living organism would need to be able to survive are insane.

The potholes here were so big that it burst car tires and dented rims. The idea seems great, but not sure why it was so bad here.

In Middle TN, at least, asphalt is coming back in favor. Apparently concrete doesn’t handle the freeze/thaw cycle very well, and is harder to repair than asphalt. In a side note, TN Department of Transportation recently experimented wi

Pretty sure this study was put out to see if his remarks had any merit at all.

You do recall the extreme levels of misinformation that were present during 2020, right? Hospitals running out of medical equipment while people were stocking up and re-selling them? Civil War was a concern, at least in my part of the count

Every now and then I’ll get a spam call and the caller ID has spaces in the wrong place. My iPhone tells me the call is from +33 1 … which is in Paris, instead of area code 331, which is Chicago. I don’t know if the phone system is relying

Pretty sure I’ve seen a version of this cable that had a solid tab that bent in the middle. I have no idea what the brand/name is, and just spent way too long looking for it. It wasn’t metal, but sounds like a plastic version of what y

The adapter actually looks easier to use than the tab on some Ethernet cables.

That’s actually what I meant, but my comment didn’t describe very well.
