I am having the same tingling issue where my hands fall asleep easily. Almost exactly as you describe. What could be causing this? I’m going to see a doctor in a couple weeks but wondering if I should try to see one sooner. Could it be caus

I prefer to use the grammatically correct and gender neutral latine/latines. That term seems to be embraced by Mexicans. Julieta Venegas is a proponent so is the show House of Flowers on Netflix. LatinX is just really awkward to say a

Off topic but Facebook’s developer portal has a create test user capability that works pretty well. I don’t use Facebook either but if I need it for work I create a Facebook with my work email.

Yes absolutely. There are plenty of dropshippers that have relationships with manufacturers and wholesalers that only buy from the authentic manufacturer.

Spider solitaire is my jam. I played it every day of my commute on my phone for a year. Still go back to it sometimes. Definitely need to try other kinds.

Slightly tangential but I really like Linq syntax. The only problem I have with it is that it is really hard to debug if there is a logic error. I often see developers write linq find out the record set they get back is incorrect and then b

This is the exact same situation my company finds itself in. We are stuck with it because they have decent APM metrics for .NET Java and JavaScript and it’s nice it’s all in one dashboard. The new UI is pretty difficult to use and way too b

I really do not understand what the hold up is. In California I know over ten people whose results have taken more than seven or eight days to come back. This is in the past two weeks. I am still waiting for my results from Sunday six days

I agree with the GP about the air pollution. I also find the Salt Lake reeks in the summer. When I would go with my dad as a kid on his business trips, the smell in the summer was really off-putting. I think it's the same problem Mexic

The federal government is made up of many different actors with different goals. The $600 unemployment pandemic bonus was only added to the relief package because of the house democrats insistence. I think it’s hard to believe that was not

I always thought the point was to keep people home during the pandemic instead of working odd jobs to compensate. Incentivizing people to not work by paying them more to stay at home was a public health policy choice. Of course, the bills w

To be honest, I found that book all over the place. It was interesting, but its message could be condensed to half its length. There was a lot of musing and scattered anecdotes but not much direction. I hope a higher quality book can come o
