Based on personal experience it seems like his sons would have a general idea of what was stored in the garage or attic. Considering he threw his brother under the bus to the city newspaper, I suspect he had been keeping an eye on those box

9 seems adequate to get some kind of statistical significance from the results. Additionally if this somehow has a very high mortality rate, due to unseen consequences, 9 is a lower number than say, 300. In reality though, running medical t

That is possibly the least coherent press release/call to action I've seen in a while. If there is a convincing argument to be had there, it's buried in twelve paragraphs of flowery language.

It can be rebranded, that's pretty straightforward for something that's such an industry standard. "Oh yeah? Earthworks? That's the open source fork of Terraform" pretty simple. If it were a lesser known technology

John Carmack has been fairly vocal about releasing the source code for his games, particularly the Quake/Doom series for as long as I can remember, going back to at least Quakecon 2004 during one of his keynotes there. I think at the k

Roofs generally last for 30 years. In my neighborhood at least, which was all built-out in a 3 year period in the mid-1970s, most of the roofs were replaced about 10-15 years ago (they're rated for 30 years, but everyone pushes their l

We might see a pull back to December 2019 prices but there's no way absolute house prices will crash to 2014 or 2012 prices. Weak markets might continue to see a decline in prices but in competitive markets (read: where the jobs/g

I also do not like how toxic tylenol is, but I'll echo the other (probably parents) posters pointing out that dropping a fever from 104.2 down to 100.9 is... pretty awesome when you have a screaming 6 month old and panicking mother. Ar
