I grew up in Kern county where valley fever is prevalent and it is very serious. I've known many people that completely lost their summers from being so ill for months. The people who get chronic valley fever are the worst, just waisti

They'll just write bigger golden parachutes into their contacts to offset the risk. That or suddenly everyone is an EVP and the C levels all are just paid fall guys. But 25% revenue might work.

I feel like this is one of those projects missing missing an important "Why" section. It's an interesting project, but from the outside, I don't immediately understand why someone has done all this effort. Huge Minecraft

Under the hood, git is pretty simple and built out of a few primitives. That's why projects like this [1] are so fun! https://wyag.thb.lt/

The metered street parking right now in LA is usually $0.50-$2.00/hour depending on the area so that seems quite normal to me. Our meters are pretty good too and you can pay in coins or card: https://ladotparking.org/pa

I think it depends on whether the use is classified or not. I'm not aware of iPhone supporting red/black separation, not to mention a model without cameras for use in secure environments.

Fan fiction is illegal, or at best in a deeply gray area, it's just that most people realize suing your super-fans is a bad move. There are exceptions of course, Anne Rice was famously super litigious over any attempted fan fiction of

There are multi-million dollar domains [1], but stack.com, especially assuming no significant existing traffic, doesn't seem like it would rank that high as compared to these. Maybe it would be worth tens or hundreds of thousands, but

Microsoft had a cheaper office suite that they sold as a middle ground. I remember the "poor" kids in highschool couldn't edit their papers in certain ways at home and had to do some things on school computers instead. https

You need to read further to § 64.2005(2) which covers other categories of services: >(2) If a telecommunications carrier provides different categories of service, but a customer does not subscribe to more than one offering by the carrier

What part of 64.2005 excludes the opt-out consent? I read the whole thing. Please quote exactly.

I don't understand why everyone is saying this is illegal unless they are just not reading past §64.2003(k) as (l) provides for a the opt-out method, and §64.2007(b) is clear the providers can use either: >§64.2003(l) Opt-out approv

I never claimed that every nap taken in East Asia was performative, just that performative naps are prevalent there. For instance much ink has been spilled about "inemuri" in Japan and all the related social dynamics that drive it
