If the ultimate goal is saving lives, how much of your daily life are you willing to sacrifice for public health? Willing to forego car ownership? End two day shipping speeds for non essential purchases?

Getting ready to leave my blue state home. Born and raised in California, but the autoritarian writing is on the wall, and I'm making my preparations.

You start climbing ladders at the bottom rung. Do you have 40 to 60 year data? Or are you just avoiding the 5-10 year scale by redirecting?

Technically, you can use any language, including Python. Python cares about the number of whitespace characters, not the sizing of them. Any other languages will have the same issue of your columns / pretty formatting not lining up e

The reports of it are correlated to the rarity, except in instances where reports are not generated, such as apps that do not collect error telemetry.

It's not that your argument was incorrect. It's that it is tangential to the parent comment. hnarn was not making the point of something being rare, they were demonstrating that a developer can estimate the rarity based on the c

I don’t necessarily disagree, but prioritize water bottlers like Arrowhead above agriculture. I’d also like to see more money put into ocean desalination (solar powered, to cover another great natural resource we have).

How terrible that local laws, written and enacted by the voting population they preside over, take precedent over international laws written and enacted by legislators several times more distantly removed from the population. Hopefully the

I love these things. The scent and feel of wood burning to keep you warm is ingrained through nearly a million years of human history and evolution. It's more a part of the human experience than the concept of living in a group of mo

I'm going off the argument chain that grilling produces CO and CO2, which are greenhouse gasses, which melt sea ice, which raise sea levels. And FWIW I usually use charcoal/wood.

I was under an incorrect impression that gas stoves were more common in more wealthy homes. Every crap place I rented had an electric stove. Every nice place I've lived came with a gas range. I was incorrectly extrapolating from the
