If you want sources I will find them, but there are studied and not simply anecdotal instances of multiple infections of covid, yes. The outcomes range somewhat across the board from subsequent risks of severe infection or death, in a way t

It amazes me that there remains this misguided view that vaccination efficacy around protecting others is a binary mechanism. It's not. There is evidence of at least partial reduction in infection, not just outcome, by being vaccinated

Can you explain what you mean by fossil being a competitor for github, rather than git? Fossil is a scm with additional features for usage, but (the last I used it, and to my memory) it was just the command line fossil very much like git, a

Being very honest, the first season was by far the best for me. I enjoyed and watched the remainder, but the feel of the first was incredibly difficult to replicate. I would still recommend watching the rest.

Thank you for your response, and candor. It certainly gives me a better understanding and new things to consider.

By "used to", it sounds as though you have navigated to a better place in life, and that is great. When you look back, do you think that it is possible that some of the bad sleep/lack of exercise/smoking too much dope&#x

There are theaters in Canada that have it, too.

Interesting! For reference, it did happen once before. In 1976 and 1977, Doyle Brunson won the WSOP with the same hand - 10-2 (a terrible hand), and it's now named after him. The odds of the same person winning the WSOP now at all are

I'm curious about your WSOP mention - did you single this one out because it (remarkably) did happen before? Or were you speculating it could happen again in the future?

If anyone could point me to a spiritual successor to Privateer, I would be so extremely happy. Does such a thing exist?

Having worked extensively with CANBUS and other vehicle interfaces, I cannot remember ever using the word "fun" to describe that line of hacking... :)

Educate both, perhaps? Someday those kids will be adults and have kids of their own, with hopefully more inclusive and accepting views. Perhaps it will even encourage them to challenge the ideas, words, and views their parents present.

Fair answer! I don't use either myself so your perspective on it sheds a lot of light. Thank you.

I didn't downvote, but some research shows that this is a controversial truth, even among those in the industry. The history is not controversial but the treatment of marijuana as a racist term is, from what I can see.

I don't know anything about it, but how is it known that this is not the case with Snapchat as well? (I realize you're not the OP in this comment chain, but still.)

This matches my experience. Deja vu is not something I remember from a past event, but from something happening right at the moment. If I understand the article correctly, and a candidate theory for deja vu encountered on Wikipedia, this mi

Thanks for the dialogue and information! I've bookmarked this and will make my way through it as well.

I also just finished the first Mistborn book. I REALLY enjoyed that, much more than Kingkiller Chronicles (of which I've read two books). I'm moving onto the next one and am excited that there are a number of them I can consume in

Holy wow. I just finished reading the first of the Kingkiller Chronicle books, The Name of the Wind. I did not realize this central theme was so similar (and/or derivative). My exposure to sci-fi and fantasy is more deep than broad, a

Harm, yes, but embarrass - what would be the grounds for suit? (Not a lawyer, just can't fathom any legal grounds for action here...)

With accompanying payment structures and caps, yes.

This is exactly what I, too, found the most interesting part of the article. Wow. Contributions to the war effort came in any number of unusual forms.

Coming from a town that does underground, hard rock mining in western Canada, I would agree with this idea generally speaking, with an add-on, though: While the act of extraction is relatively benign, the act of processing and refining for

I think your point is fair, but there are also some humans (who are not just politically correct ideals) who don't lace their speech or writing with swears, even under duress or stressful conditions - they're still talking like hu

Not OP but I've heard (anecdotally here and there) that many sites reject email from Amazon IP blocks because of historical spam problems. I only encountered it personally a handful of times when using SES for delivery, and it was usua

Facts don't have any bias, as I understand it. The collection of facts presented or absorbed can be picked or ignored with bias.

Just as a heads up: The deeper a comment chain gets, the longer HN hits the pause button on allowing a reply (to prevent flame-warring, I think). I understand that it's not maybe intended to be a jerk or has the deeper purpose of getti
