Most toilets in the US are created to be "green" when it comes to water usage, but the reality is it takes at least 2+ flushes most of the time instead of 1 because of it - but as long as the amount of water per flush is low it pa

Same thing in our new building. They lower it for a few moments, then full blast. I wear blue blockers for more than just my screen these days. The other issue - my boss has his own lamps in his office and keeps the room light off. But it g

My house gets on- and off-peak usage rates, so if I charge at night I get a better rate. My last bill had an on-peak rate of $.0886, but the off-peak rate was $.0327. So it's even better if I set the timer and only charge after a certa

When mentioning C# (not sure about any other language), I would have mentioned the using statement and IDesposable objects. This way each object's needed cleanup is encapsulated in each objects dispose method(s). Granted using compiles

I was just thinking about the whole "what happened in the last decade". While the 90s ended with the rise of the web, and the 00s saw the rise of what we can do with the web, the 10s felt like an experiment of what NOT to do with

Having just watched them movie Dark Waters[1], I'm surprised I hear more about this than I do of that [2]. That said, while I'm glad that they're doing these studies, I'd like to here something more conclusive. [1] http

I think the point of the article was more that you didn't get to to do what you wanted to do, regardless of what that thing is. If you wanted to watch TV because you enjoy it, fine (the time you enjoy wasting is not wasted time). But i

The only thing that's going to change things is the freedom of being able to travel directly from point A to point B without having to go to other points in between. Right your at your house "A" and you need to go your job &q

I remember when this happened, when it went "digital" and I know why it takes a second to switch channels, but it ruined the experience for me. While, at the time there was ways to watch video on the computer or from a DVD or VHS,

Personally, I've switched from angular to vuejs after angular 2 (3, 4) came out. I found that vuejs was a better update from angular 1 than angular 2 was.

It's a broadcast station, meaning that they can only serve customers in the range of their antenna. The programming itself is syndicated - and maybe created by a different company as well as the local advertising. I suspect that you&#x

A big part of why this isn't viable for most is that not only don't they have the time to cook, a lot of the food you buy is perishable. Meaning that you'll throw it out before you use it.

I tried that kiosk once (I don't often go to McDonald's) and was surprised to find that you could not order by number/meal. It took me 10 minutes to figure out how to order what we wanted and then at the end there were no &qu

The echo is a way for you to buy stuff from them - so that's where the advantage is for Amazon. It's like saying "I got a really good deal on a billboard for my house." and all it does is show ads for someone else.

Yes, it's been illegal for years - but EVERY DAY I see people on their phones - talking, texting. My favorite move is when they're holding their phone like a waiter - it's on speaker phone, but I would consider that in no way

I thought the issue with Facebook was that they were creating funny accounts that shared memes and then switching them to be political accounts. And also using post farms to share funny political memes that people share to sway group though

They're not talking about whether or not a field is considered a foreign key to another table, but whether or not to define those keys in the database itself so that it also creates a constraint. Really the post is about having a const

Since first seeing the Ulam spiral on Numberphile, it wasn't surprising to me that lines like that would appear. Being that prime numbers are all the combinations by which you cannot stack a two dimensional area of pixels in a fully fi

In vue you can do <button @click="increment()"> and it treats it the same. I tend to put the (), especially since I am almost always passing in some sort of object inside a loop.
