People in the education field have casually dismissed substantive studies for a long time, too. The study itself acknowledges prior research in the area, and is far beyond mere empirical results confirming a hunch educators have had (and in

I just filled out the comment. And yes, just taking too long and costing to much is already a major hurdle that leaves children in another broken pipeline for far too long awaiting placement when they could be bonding with their adoptive pa

We can replace the primary and (formerly) indispensable product of a company with a $4T market cap for $5-10/month (less if annualized), and some people still gripe.

Have you ever looked at the browsing history of a non-technical, non-tech-addicted older person? I'm usually surprised by how little activity there typically is. The $5 plan is great for gifting Kagi to non-tech friends and relatives w

Why do you suppose Joanna Rutkowska made a point of calling Qubes OS "reasonably secure", rather than making claims like, "Qubes is not vulnerable" and "there is no attack vector"?

I know this isn't the case with all banks, but for whatever my anecdata is worth I've been using a number of banking apps on mine for years, so it's incorrect to say that banking apps can't be used.
