It's a release page. If ever in doubt of where you are, look at the URL. Guacamole is quite well known in the Linux world. Release page being linked is appropriate given the title.

Maybe these journals should get together and duplicate the Scihub interface which pulls from whatever sources the user should have access to. I have never used these services at a University. Do they even require a login? Or do you get au

More interesting to me is the process the medical industry has to go through to deal with the testing kits. Apparently they are in short supply. Lots of good nuggets in this thread. Yes, it's Twitter, but this can be cross-checked. ht

Here's another source which mentions the 44K number. The previous comment might have got the name wrong. http://www.cidrap.umn.edu/news-perspective/2020/01/experts-n...

It would be interesting to see what the process is for testing for this, costs involved and what the bottlenecks are. For example, you might not even get treated in the Philippines if you don't bring money with you or don't have i

I believe we're only a couple days out from the total confirmed cases of Coronavirus to match the total confirmed cases of SARS. At that point, SARS will still have far more deaths. There's a lot of graphs on projections vs actual

I don't think we know the answer to this yet. Without an answer, it pays to be paranoid.

Who was your instructor? Do you remember any of the old guard there? What project did you get into after training? I got stuffed into Windows 95/98 and then sucked into XP when it blew up. XP manager was Rohn Eloul (originally from Pal

I have been remote working for many years. And I have done a handful of office working. I would have considered myself (probably wrongly) the worst procrastinator. It seemed like most of the people I worked with were able to get things done

Depends on what you value. If living a hedonistic lifestyle is your life goal, then you can have as much fun as any 20 year old way past 37 and for little money. People in their 20's are more likely to live that lifestyle before discov

Congrats on your KB article. ;) Looking at the dates again, records I was part of was probably before this date. I believe I was gone by 2005. That may also be around the time the Tucson location moved from the IBM campus to the Convergy&#x

I imagine most of these are support issues handled by contractors they have had over the years. Windows 95 through XP had Keane and Convergy's in Tucson running their Windows support (which then forked into Canada and India.) Not sure

It's insanely expensive if you are comparing the price and functionality to existing apps. I would expect a "me too" app to have "me too" pricing. The reason people are talking about Roam is because it's not li

Touché, I haven't tried the JSON export yet. Thanks!

You can export, but you lose the links and ID's of the sections.

by gexla 7y ago
So do lots of other apps. You can link between files. Even just plain markdown would allow you to link between files. You could just include a build step and edit MD files and read HTML. But ROAM also allows you to reference sections. Links

Not if there's no other app which doesn't have the same functionality. I would rather get the power of the app now and then lose that power in 5 years rather than disregard it completely. If the work I did in the app provides an R

I believe the founder mentioned that they will eventually allow you to encrypt your data. If you do any sort of public writing, you could use it for your writing process since that info would be private eventually anyways. Or you could expa

Yeah, I probably misunderstood you. However, I do think it's useful to know the narratives which are being spun out of the facts. Then when you have a discussion with someone, you understand how they arrived to whatever crazy beliefs t

Maybe the real story here is that Facebook is barely functional at most things but managed to get their crap enough together to focus on being a #1 social network. Like if you went out all night, got drunk, woke up with a severe hangover an
