Interestingly, when I was part of a weight loss diet study at my local university I actually gained muscle whilst losing weight. I had multiple full body dexascans during the programme. I didn’t change my exercise routine at all. I wasn’t h

I don’t know for sure. It’s dual link DVI. So maybe you’d need Dual Link DVI to mDP, then mDP to USBC? Or maybe a TB2 style adapter to TB3. Instead of mDP. I think Apple sold one of those? I googled and Dual Link DVI to mDP seems to exist!

My strategy would be to go for redundancy: The physical book can contain a QR Code, Barcode, printed URL and so on, that’s correct at the time of print. But then leave hints on how to search and find the book online if those resources are n

Dev tools: Familiarity and muscle memory for the layout of the chrome dev tools is what keeps me using Chrome during the day. That and Chrome profiles! I do happily switch to another browser for actual web browsing things.

There is a maxim in marketing that consumer spending slows on the run up to an election. Something like the 2024 US election has an impact globally. Like I say, it’s a maxim and YMMV! However, the election distraction effect could certainly

There is Good Stress, and there is Bad Stress! Being in a stressful situation that you have little or no control over is likely creating a bad form of stress. Such as being trapped in a corporate job under a toxic management structure. Howe

Why don't they have 360 vision? Why does it need to turn its head or it's torso? Maybe just to make it more humanoid?

I hate gambling ads and casinos. But I reckon in this case, if I had to guess, I think maybe it's an external or internal developer that's making lots of Casino websites. Maybe they work for a group that owns all those brands? Sur

I also recently started taking Saxenda, and I’ll give my take on what they mean: I found it remarkable that almost immediately after taking the drug it began to work. And by work I mean that it removed any thoughts I had about eating. What

Who’s to say they won’t at some point? This isn’t about punishing Apple. It’s about economic opportunity for EU citizens and businesses. The EU has a responsibility to promote the prosperity of its citizens. If that means dictating how a US

To encourage this, here in South Australia, households can get free power between 11am and 2pm, to charge their EVs. We also charge our home batteries and run other things like the dishwasher, washing machine and so on... It's actually

As an aside, The TV Miniseries 'DEVS' covers freewill in an interesting way. The TV show, is I believe, based on a book. DEVS focuses on the question of if humans exhibit freewill to make choices, or are our choices determined by
