Just checked my Moccamaster and it says that it uses PET 7 plastic, which supposedly designates "other" resin. Not sure what that means if anything for food safety.

Regardless of your water source and/or lead contamination level, it's advisable to install a reverse osmosis filtration system. They're relatively affordable and will remove most contaminants. As a bonus reverse osmosis will

My mom works for our local municipal government administering a HUD lead abatement grant. The state of lead contamination in many older homes in low income areas is just awful.

Ah, yes, Google testing blog. From the same company shipping products recommending we eat "at least one small rock per day".

Thanks! Seems to be working now. Next issue I see is that the formatting of a paper discussion page seems to be rendering content out of bounds of the view on mobile Safari.

I did. Northern Appalachian/Allegheny Plateau region. Lots of cheap real estate with low natural disaster risk. Also a great region for small scale agriculture. Climate change might even help this region's arability.

My guess is that WWDC will be more focused on AI this year, but I will remain hopeful.

I like some UX aspects of iPadOS, but need the functionality of macOS for work.

I feel the same way. I just can't justify upgrading from my 10.5" Pro from years ago. It's got pro motion and runs most apps fine. Sure, the battery isn't great after all these years, but it's not like it's get

In all seriousness, you're right. Sandboxing Xcode but making it fully featured is surely a nightmare engineering problem for Apple. However, I feel like some kind of containerized macOS running in the app sandbox could be possible.

Why are we running these high end CPUs on tablets without the ability to run pro apps like Xcode? Until I can run Xcode on an iPad (not Swift Playgrounds), it's a pass for me. Hear me out: I don't want to bring both an iPad and Ma

It isn't difficult to be granted this permission. All an app needs to do is supply a reason defined in https://developer.apple.com/documentation/bundleresources/pr... as to why it's being used in the app

I've had the exact opposite experience. Ten years ago I had to go through all sorts of multi-round coding tests, and in my last two jobs it's only been one or just a high level technical discussion.

Chromeos flex could be worth looking at, and depending on the build of their old machine, they may not need to buy a new computer at all. CPU, RAM, and SSD upgrades could help if it's 15+ years old though. I recently did this to my fam

We're targeting ads here, not heads.

Is the issue just that the developer didn't give credit, or that even giving credit was enough to violate the guidelines?

In some states it is the law to single click cancel. In others it is not, and requires a phone call to cancel. It's not impossible to cancel, but they bank on people not wanting to call in. They'll also try to negotiate down your

I agree with you completely, and there are voices within the organization advocating for that as well. Big legacy mainstream media companies move at a glacial pace and making that kind of change takes a lot of time and buy-in throughout the

I'm all for it, and while we're at it let's break up Google's ad monopoly, which is partially why we need Taboola in the first place.

If donating to NPR is a tax write off, it is publicly funded. If the majority of those donors are politically biased, they will create a feedback loop where news is catered to those donating to them. This isn't wrong per se, but just w

It's a balancing act, of course, and as long as the optimization function of churn and revenue is trending positively it will remain. There are dozens of data scientists working on this problem. Taboola ads are at the bottom of pages a

If NPR only represents a fraction of our nation’s viewpoints, they are not living up to their namesake of national public radio. If they wanted to call themselves progressive public radio I’d take no issue.

You have no interest at all in if cronyism is affecting your local politics? Do you care about how your taxes are spent?
