It's a fascinating achievement! I, and others at my org, want to do this for technical writing. Some want LaTex -- others Markdown -- so we must answer that question first. Did you implement an example for them, demonstrate, and get a

The outside is beautiful, but you’d really need to be onboard with the interior design to live there. It would also be a crime to change it.

I have been (well, was) doing this to improve my handwriting. Habits are hard to form, excuses are easy to make.

I've been very critical of Sonos since before these incidents, but TBF, they've properly addressed both. I'm not sure WHY the client depends on the speaker's hardware capabilities, but I'd guess the old client sourc

This is the giant's shoulders I like to stand on! Need to see more projects abstracting away the hard stuff (I'm looking at you, GUI libraries!)

Pimping my favorite translator of the Illiad, EV Rieu, though I guess I need to try Emily Wilson. I have his version of the Odyssey but haven't read it yet. The Literature and History podcast has great coverage of the Illiad and Odysse

Ignoring Amazon, my beef is with everything sold at MSRP. Americans don’t have a history of haggling, and most stores’ employees probably aren’t equipped to give you 10% off. I have had luck getting a discount off a new Mac, though usually

TBF, they've priced it at $70/year due to Apple's "tax", and Netflix has economies of scale Muse can only dream of. If you find value in their product, and use it frequently, is $100/yr that much? I haven&#x27

Another person addressed the window material problem (the tech doesn't exist). Given that, I think it would be more attractive to have more spacious interiors, namely higher ceilings and wider corridors.

The rule used to be it has to be the same price. Has that changed, has Dropbox received special treatment, or is the Euro market granting them the pricing exception?

We’ve been asking for ala cart cable pricing for a long time. Netflix is pocket change and my family gets more value from it than anything other subscription besides trash and recycling. I’d pay 2x as much for reliable, newsworthy, and suc

A feature I miss from an old, discarded read later service was browser search bar integration. It was very convenient searching from one place across multiple locations.

epipelagic isn't even in either of the MacOS dictionaries I have installed (British & American). To make it worse, MacOS tries to define it as a mis-spelled epileptic, overriding the "pelagic zone" which is more useful.

There are quite a few schools in America already doing this. A friend’s kids attended all the way to 18yo. They seem to have turned out ok, but I haven’t checked in recently. IIRC, they found jobs doing things they love. They are given pret

I don't see why it is suspicious. It may have been redacted but there's nothing intrinsically wrong AFAICT. Howard Markel, M.D., Ph.D. of the University of Michigan Center for the History of Medicine talks about the 2nd hump: htt

Are there any realistic attempts, fictional or otherwise, at describing a market encouraging a more balanced society, but reasonably, but not excessively, rewarding successful risk takers?

Those cities were also probably built by slaves/serfs/forced labor or with very cheap labor and with little to no societal regulation.

The Economist is my favorite reading material when flying, which I don't do enough to sustain a subscription. I wish they (and others!) would release an essentials podcast w/ a reasonable subscription -- a succinct (1-2h?) present

Sadly, "prevalent" represents a range degrees. From "universal" to "widespread" to "frequent" to "common". I'm not sure I would normally consider all of these to be reference the same w

I’ve run into a few situations in the last 6 years, all in the last year, where my system wasn’t detected and I needed to reboot a few speakers. However, I’ve never lost any settings or had any other issues. I’m still worried they are going
