My feedback is that I was ready to move on after I searched for pricing, and it appears that it's not shown anywhere unless I sign up. I'll give it a try because it looks interesting and I'm looking for something similar.

The whaling station is fascinating. It makes me wonder what would be the blend of smells in the air.

The intended goal was to get the other person to reply :) by inverting the mouth. Instead, the whole "frown face" was inverted.

The point of solidarity strikes is that there may not be a specific point. It's simply a way for workers from unrelated industries to show support. Apparently, even trash collectors and mail delivery personnel are skipping Tesla.

The cost of shipping overseas at scale (thanks to containerization, automated ports and gigantic ships) is lower than doing so locally with less efficient means (i.e. your chicken farmer's diesel van). Given that, even if the price of

The worst offenders are those without a link to unsubscribe, and who instead ask you to "reply unsubscribe", which happily for them is also a signal to the email provider that you've interacted with them and therefore are not

A similar, more passive approach is to tell the AI to conjure 3 or 4 personas representing the main points of view about a particular topic (i.e. "universal basic income"). Each persona is an eloquent expert in the field with a st

Precisely this. Other commenters are pointing out that the Spanish government doesn't want to lose the option to investigate secessionist leaders, but given the current good relationships between the socialist party and Puigdemont'

I was at Intel when they bought McAfee, whose HQ was essentially across the street. The running joke was similar.

There's past evidence of that. Some link the 2003 Columbia disaster to a slide-based presentation format with insufficient/unclear information. https://mcdreeamiemusings.com/blog/2019/4/13/gsux1

Thanks! Yes, Let's Encrypt does email you, and they provide extensive documentation for automatic renewals as you say. But even with that, I've had some WordPress instances go dark a few times because of some hard to debug problem

This is hilarious, but I think it may have some practical applications. Watch out for hackers though.

Exactly this. I'm sent down Sacramento or San Pablo regularly, instead of the California or King st boulevards. Most people who ride around don't need the directions, but now and then you see someone you can tell is following them

Pen-test! Just write pen-test and you don't elicit the same innuendo. This is especially true for human-to-human communications.

I suppose the risk of pollution would be too high, but it'd make for a cool demo. Once on a bike ride, I met a guy who worked painting the GGB. He said he was about 50, but look 65, so it seemed plausible. He wasn't wearing a helm

Didn't one of the most recent versions of Explorer integrate something like this natively? I remember thinking it's neat, but it's hard to reach critical mass, and without reaching it, it's not very useful.

I worked at Intel for 3 years and I felt similarly. I was in a group writing software to help the R&D physicists figure out the kinks of the low-level devices (next-gen transistors) way before going to silicon. The day-to-day work was r
