You would need a really big roller with a lot of knap too. Although I suppose you could paint most of the midwest and avoid the mountains with a flatter roller.

The need for the material to be tight fitting isn’t actually a problem for athletic wear. If you’re wearing a wicking shirt you would also want it to be tight fitting. And a lot of rash guards will be tight because they wick in addition to

No Amazon definitely destroys most returns. I was informed that anything you can take to a Kohl’s is destroyed after return. That’s why sometimes it’s not available as an option.

I’ve had a couple of ticks here in Washington. They’re more common in Eastern Washington.

permethrin is a contact neurotoxin that will kill or repel most insects. I treat my hiking clothes with it if I’m going into tick country. I’ve actually watched ticks scurry away and die after they make contact with treated clothing. It kil

A Qt install with all the bells and whistles is about 500 megabytes, so it’s very comparable in size to Electron. Qml is a lot easier to develop in than Node+browser though.

starch can also stimulate the uptake of water in your small intestine. Oral Rehydration Salts combine some dextrose and salts to mix into a liter of water. When properly mixed the salts are in a homeostatic quantity and won’t affect the sal

A lot of people can’t even afford to put down a security deposit on a new rental. Moving is completely out of reach for them.

Ziply was awful. We got screwed by them when they bought the fiber network in our area, canceled our autopay, and then didn’t bill us for three months until we had racked up a bunch of late fees. My wife spent hours on the phone with them g

2.4 Ghz is a very busy spectrum, and most protocols use some form of collision detect to avoid interference, so it’s probable that the spectrum is particularly busy in that area with the clear line of sight and buildings at four corners. Im

Some nitpicks: * IVF involves retrieval and then fertilization of eggs. There’s not usually leftover unfertilized eggs unless the woman is banking her eggs. * The success rates my partner and I have been quoted mean that we want to keep as

That class of errors is not an issue here. This program isn't meant to be multithreaded, it's meant to be multi-/process/. The difference is that each instance of the application has its own independent address space. So

I mean it makes sense. If you've never seen traffic lights be delivered to a new intersection you'd probably blithely assume you'll never encounter a stack of them that are unlit and moving. Somewhere at Tesla there's a

I just figured out how I can make sure self-driving cars stop for me when I'm trying to cross a street. Dress up as a red light.

The point I'm making isn't that you can't get insurance, it's that the insurance you have changes every time you change jobs. At one employer you might be on an HMO plan like Kaiser Permanente and be limited to their pro

Yeah, and the "midsize" trucks from 15 or 20 years ago are the same size as the full size trucks were 15 or 20 years ago. Everything is getting way bigger and harder to drive. I'd much rather have a Toyota Tacoma or Ford Rang

But when you change employers you risk losing access to your healthcare. Whereas if government pays for the health system you can maintain continuity of care, which can be essential to treat various psychiatric and medical conditions. Imagi

Yeah the assertion that older developers don't have time to learn new things is especially stupid. I'm 35 and I just wrote an entire playbook on how to move my employer off of some obsolete VM-based infrastructure and into the Azu

Isn't this promissory estoppel? Like they promised that you would start at a certain date, causing you to quit your current job. Then they withdrew the promise, causing you to be unemployed.

I can think of at least one society that formed in the 1930's for which this was an absolute mandate! But I don't recall reading much about them past about 1945, so perhaps you should do some further research.

The central question is how was the land abutting each station zoned? Did they change the zoning to allow for more development? Or did it remain mostly residential-zoned and just change from single-family to multi-family? The reason rail wo
