Difference is in so-called "Nordic" skiing, only the front of the boot is attached to the ski and part of the technique is flexing the ankle and raising the heel during parts of the stroke.

For sure almost all cattle are 'fattened up' at so-called "feed lots" immediately before butchering. In fact "grass fed" is one of those misleading labels that imply one thing but the true way to get what &quo

I'm not rich, but I'm comfortable. Most of my choices, and certainly all of my major life choices (like where to live, what car to drive, what job to take) are still based around money. Edit: good points in the responses. I don&#

I would hope that someone of Tim Cook's experience and stature understands what a sunk cost is.

I think "the next Hitler" would in fact use this data to come to power, much less use it to retain power.

That seems like a very low cap. It will incentivize people to break up their "inventions" into as many possible separate "up to $150K" revenue streams as possible.

Perhaps I missed a zero, is the threshold for billing 30 or 3 dollars per quarter? (I guess viewing 30 filings vs 300?) Also I definitely gave up at the point they asked for a CC (which I didn't have handy at the time). The UX certai

I've been trying to look at the court filings over the lawsuit to extend Census data collection. I got 3/4 of the way through registering for PACER before I gave up. Apparently it's 10 cents per page, and if you incur less th

HHS (The agency that administers Medicare/Medicaid in the US) has a 2-person SWAT Team on the rolls?

I find it interesting that some states are trying to regulate something like this. What if you had a child read off every license plate they see and use voice recognition to record the license plates? Is it illegal in real time, but allowed

Yes, and this is a perception issue. Most people don't understand statistics.

I think it's like boiling a lobster. They won't transfer you immediately to a boiling pot of water. They will simply turn up the heat on the pot you're in, slowly but surely. Pretty soon you'll be sitting in a hot tub

So this is basically telling China: Hey we know you're spying using TikTok. Share the tool you use to spy so we can see, too. China said: OK fine but you can only spy on your own citizens. Plus we also still get to. Is that right?

Regardless of whether the average friendship length is similar, being FORCED to abandon your friends based on someone else's schedule is much more traumatic than friends entering and exiting your social circle due to the natural cycle

Luckily for me, I'm living in the same first house I bought straight out of grad school, 18 years and counting. All I ever wanted growing up was a sense of permanence. I am thankfully now able to provide that for myself physically.

The author seems to have a penchant for taking the most dangerous assignments. I'm a "diplomat brat" and most diplomatic careers are much more boring and pedestrian. I (US citizen) grew up in Japan, Venezuela, and Costa Rica

I still don't want Waze on my car's screen because it sits low in the dash. I intentionally mount my phone such that it's high up and I can still see the road while looking at my phone. It's absolutely less safe to look

Wait, deliverymen? I don't tip the UPS, FedEx, or USPS guys. The only type of person that comes to my house that I tip is the garbage guy, and only when I have a particularly large garbage pile to take out. They send out cards aroun

Neat article. EFF's favicon looks so similar to ESPN's that I thought I had opened an ESPN tab at first.

Is it really inconsistent? The technology is there to investigate if someone raises a stink, but if no complaint is made, no one investigates/correlates delivery reporting vs the data you mention. I honestly believe many delivery driv

Probably because at the time it was deemed politically unpopular for the state to prop up a private business.

Agreed. We are the country that designed, created, and operated the SR-71 Blackbird, put a man on the moon, and built the Hoover Dam, among other incredible feats of organization, engineering, and manufacturing. I fear as a country we are
