There is a lot of corruption. At this point that is not a partisan reality. Managing who performs the task of representing us ordinary people matters because of what happens when corruption combines with non corruption. Could be everyone e

Apple end game: Apple ISA. Might take them a decade, but in the end, they will eventually do all their own thing.

I oppose the law, because it seemed poorly written. Some of the cop watchers I saw were basically using the distance measure to ward off calls to retreat, saying "soon, it is 8 feet"

This one was interesting. Many were critics of the law. Cop watchers in AZ were basically going to test it and the clarity on distance saw a lot of positive comments.

Why, and why? Serious question! I want to know.

Still have a machine running 7. It is fast, terribly insecure due to not being updated for all the Spectre type attacks, and rock solid. I do some development on it, and it holds a license for super expensive software that would cost me a

This software is usable at the stock 1Mhz system clock found on all Apple 2 type computers except the GS (2.5 Mhz) and //c+ (4 Mhz). At 1Mhz it is impressive. There are cards that offer up to 16Mhz clock speeds. And some can als

Delivering care counts toward their margins, regulated by the ACA. I forget the exact number, but it is 80 percent to be spent on care, something like that. The key thing is more care = more dollars = more in the bank. One response to that

I find them slow too. Depending on the author, I can read a novel in an evening. Mostly, I do quick bursts for time reasons. My average is a few nights. An audio book can take a long time. Listening fast is a mixed bag. I generally hav

Hmmm... "Best" informed seems to be a mess in the making. Best at consuming Cable News productions? Best at status quo narratives? How many of those have been shown to be really wrong not too long after they were put out there? T

I really am missing forums. One area of interest of mine has a good one and it has a solid population. I value it increasingly highly.

First, a bit of housekeeping: I did not say best ever thinker. I did say one of our best ever thinkers. The difference is significant! Now, back to our discussion: He [Feynman] would say the same! My logic speaks to the value and importanc

Well, yes! That is the "don't get me wrong" part of my comment above. My objection is the "up sell" in the press release, not the use of advanced numerical capabilities, nor what they suggest.

Well, if one really wants to taste the subtle tastes of an egg, cooking sans oil does that. By subtle, I mean similar to the difference between veggie oil and olive or canola oil. These all have a distinct taste to me, and I dislike canola

We had a similar experience tooling up our kitchen. I ended up buying used, high quality appliances from an earlier era. Best move ever! Our Kitchen Aid mixer, for example, is metal construction, has servicable motor parts, and just works

Indeed it is early, and a fine quote. Here's to hoping better becomes a more dominant norm! My take on this is simple: Live and work as example. This is powerful advocacy. Doing that does improve our corner of the world and it can be

It is not silly, depending on what one does with it. This is a bit linger than you may expect, but I do take this topic quite seriously and wish more people would. I have a specific set of criteria for how I evaluate media[0] The two sides
