It took my dad last year, diagnosis in April, gone by mid-June. It was so aggressive he chose "medical assistance in death" (MAID), because he didn't want to be in hospitals all-the-time. He had half-completed the process,

I am in-between - so, the way I used instructions was for ideas on how things could be put together that were "non-obvious". I would build it once, then play with that model for a bit, then deconstruct it, put it into my box of lo

Heh - just did a road-trip from Ontario to DC a couple weeks ago, alone, brand new Audi rental - and my phone loaded with tunes. About 10-hrs each way, enjoyed it immensely.

Thanks - I was going to chime in on this. However - I was also an instructor (not high-school, but IT professionals) - and the biggest problem with "15-minute" bugs, or basic knowledge-gaps (like... how to open a command prompt an

Exactly. Asbestos has been banned for most usage in Canada since the early 1990's. However... Canada continues to be one of the biggest exporter of Asbestos in global-trade. Can't allow multi-national - and national corporations w

It's good to know that I am not the only one who gets a little choked up about spaceflight. Yes, we have many things we need to do on this planet - but, we cannot keep all of our eggs in one single basket - humanity needs to reach for

Heh - it's a "project" - myself, between learning to do 3d printing, in order to build parts/widgets to get my diode laser running for etching/engraving/cutting, it is an endless stream of tweaking this or that

Correct - but Delphi was available in the VB3-4 timeframe, years ahead of .NET. When .NET was in beta, I managed to participate through a Microsoft friend - and, saw that the writing-was-on-the-wall... I dropped my tentative exploration of

...It's like a state hiring a known liar... Even worse than a star witness, the US let a known liar run their entire country for 4 years... So, frankly... people will love ChatGPT and other similar clones - people love bullshit.
