I think if you're looking from a normal couch to TV distance, you probably can't tell the difference. If you're sitting computer desk to monitor distance (close enough to read text), you probably can tell a difference. From t

The importance of "learning how to learn" has been emphasized by all of my teachers since I was in highschool, or maybe even 8th grade, decades ago. My computer engineering professors also emphasized user centered design. For one

I understand it's personal, but I also recognize they went out of their way to bring it up. Some people, including me, are more willing to discuss things anonymously because it adds a layer of impersonality. This is just a discussion b

PA has closed primaries though, so he likely would have fixed it if it was a mistake. In any case, if you're looking for nuance, there's not a lot of it in political violence in the US. Ruby Ridge, Waco, Timothy McVeigh, Jim Adkis
