I don't think you should be expecting people per square mile to scale 1:1 with mortality rate anyhow. I would guess putting twice as many people within a square would result in the virus spreading an order of magnitude faster. Similar

Beyerdynamics make great headphones, have had my dt770 for 8 years. Their earbuds on the other hand; I have not owned a pair which lasted through the warranty period (3 pairs).

I Haskell you simply put a "_" in the annotation and the compiler suggests the correct type.

You can use iCloud without an account? Is iCloud available outside of Apple ecosystem? Otherwise it doesn't seem very relevant since its not a general solution.

Maybe you own a $150 chromebook and can't run video editing software locally? I could see this being useful for youtubers without access to decent hardware.

The graph shows SO vs GH rank, and if I'm reading it correctly it seems like C is slightly more popular on SO relative to GH while JS falls pretty much on the line. Wouldn't that imply that C programmers resort to SO more often th

Obviously a political and economic union will impose laws on its member states. Your country, holding 2% of the votes, being able to overrule the entire union wouldn't be very democratic either. It sounds like you want to have the cake

This is one of my pet peeves in Visual Studio Code. If you type a language keyword it put it on top of the suggestion list. So "de" might suggest "defaultdict" but if I add an "f" and auto complete it gives me

Simply looking at its position in that list will tell you nothing without looking at what is above and below. I don't use Phoenix or Elixir but from what I understand Phoenix tries to be for Elixir what Rails is for Ruby. That is, it i
