There’s not much wrong with the original other than using the term “accuracy” when what is actually meant is “sensitivity”. But it is not colloquial. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sensitivity_and_specificity > hea

No this is not true at all. Procedural documentation in the US is exquisitely detailed both for medical-legal reasons and billing. Any polyp in the colon will be grossly described, it’s approximate position and if any intervention or send o

Purpose built barcode scanners typically don’t fumble with autofocus have faster 0-latency autoexposure (adjusted during frame readout) and even the good 2D CMOS sensor ones will start decoding linear or stacked codes such as PDF417 while t

The problem with this theory, despite lobbied funding for the Morgellons foundation with very extensive testing including histological and biochemical, no evidence of an organism has been found associated with it. It’s not like nobody has

They removed it from the master dictionary as well.

No that’s the point - there wasn’t evidence that any of 1, 2, or 3 was ever done. Some mime guy puts together a gas sensor and tinyml setup - the kid makes some report on the hypothetical ability to use to diagnose fungal pneumonia in ref

Good Examples? There’s the Abrash classic, and I did enjoy the Lamothe titles though they were more basic.

Lol, guilty - years ago I wrote a hardware manual / datasheet for a device with I2C interface. And I wrote yet another thorough I2C protocol section - and if I recall, nobody in the documentation department specifically asked for it -

I’m not saying freer markets in some aspects of medicine would be better - but the libertarian dream in medicine is probably very naive and fails to learn from history to boot (medicine, especially pharm was much freer 120 years ago - it di

Well you did say: “ NodeJS relies on V8, which is perhaps the world's most highly optimised interpreter (/JIT compiler/runner)” But even in manpower this is pretty hyperbolic compared to Java and .NET. There was probably more

The outsider perspective of (especially online) advertising or for those that work with it is overtly rotten and “evil” - it’s doesn’t follow that somehow it’s better on the inside. It isn’t a sausage factory, it’s a sewage treatment plan

And Xcode was based on the proprietary Project Builder - so again I don't see the point in making a distinction here.

Most residential electrical service in the US is 200A or well below that. Especially if you have a place with gas heat, hot water, dryer, range you do not need that much. But even with electric appliances and a typical pool heater, 200A is

And how is that relevant to whether it was a FOSS IDE project prior to Xcode.

Eclipse was free and open source from the beginning and predates Xcode. That it was derived from an even older commercial product doesn’t seem that relevant.

Who mentioned anything about an Ars article? I read the whole debacle on mailing lists and Twitter. That was enough to form my own conclusions and I did not come away from that impressed with the FreeBSD development environs. It definitely

Does it really look at second letter first or is that snippet taken out of context (it isn’t implied that it does in that email, just that it doesn’t use a library function) ? Since most requests are GET it still makes sense to handle that

As you will see in the schematic of chapter 4 the fixed temp switches vary two voltage combinations (that you get “for free” with split phase power) and two coils to get the limited power levels. But this requires multiple coils per burner

Acyclovir is shown to decrease viral replication in vivo. There is no such evidence for monolaurin. So there’s that.

They are not new. Xerox bought that technology from Tektronix when they bought their printer division. They date back to the 80s and predate widespread adoption of inkjets by a few years.

The preposition “for” as opposed to “of” makes the meaning distinct and correct as it implies something you might get to use during 2022. Imagine if it’s “best calendars for 2022.” You’re not going to be interested in them at the end of the
