I frequently go from SQL query results to HTML table to excel in a similar manner, but I haven't had issues w/ any proprietary CSS properties. Using Paste Special -> Match Destination Formatting it always comes out without any

The article speaks to how this phrase is a shortcut that doesn't get to the fact that mental health issues like depression can have a range of factors behind them including genetics and environmental factors

Yes, but there is more helpful detail in the article. Specifically taking five minutes each morning to block out my calendar for specific tasks is something that has greatly improved my working days

I find that perfectly quantized tracks sound artificial over time. Not sure how close “aisatsana” sticks to perfectly on-(half)-beat, but adding slightly random quantization offsets to each generated note could be interesting to lend the re

Yes. My favorite Aphex Twin track. Relatedly, would strongly recommend the Booka Shade DJ-Kicks album - Alberto Balsam is one of the tracks they selected https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=onLPjryBtns

Would it be nice? Flying is already a tremendous environmental burden with the focus on fuel economy. I'm happy to sit in my seat a few minutes longer if it means taking away some of that emissions impact

Completely disagree. It says he can call himself an engineer in a non-professional context. Having a ChBE BS, I am an engineer (although no longer working as one). I am not a Professional Engineer (not a licensed PE). There’s a difference -
