Parent here. I want to clarify a few points. The issue here isn't manufacturing jobs. The issue here is that I want to live in a stable and prosperous society. Among other things, that means ordinary men and women need to have a nar

Rust Belt checking in here. My hometown's in a northern union stronghold where waves of plant closings starting in the 1980's completely wrecked the local and regional economy. Which still hasn't recovered -- and seems to b

I think the theory at the end of the article sounds quite plausible. Namely that blood types are playing rock-paper-scissors against bacteria / viruses. Pathogens can learn to target a single blood type if it's predominant (just

They teach you in school, drugs are bad. Don't do drugs. Just say no. At least where and when I went to school, they went out of their way, above and beyond to ensure this simple message was hammered into every single child. The ima

My modern frontend experience is pretty limited, but AFAICT there is no "this year's recommended header list." Rather, these issues are presented to developers as a bunch of independent problems, each one of which you have t

It seems like about two semesters' worth of material in here, so 3 hours classroom time + 7 hours homework/self-study time, for 36 weeks, would give 360 hours. 900 pages divided by 360 hours is 2.5 pages per hour, a rather reason

I wish the slides went more into detail about what is meant by a "Jaguar Cache." It immediately made me think of [1] but clearly no one is writing games for it in 2017. [1] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atari

Much has been made of inequality recently. If a rich person makes N times as much a poor person but doesn't consume N times as much, they'll tend to park their excess income in financial assets. So if money's trickling up t
