I've heavily worked out for 2 hours and worked in the office for 8 hours with a cloth mask without wetness issues. My experience may not be the same for others, but 15 minutes is an exaggeration. As early as April 2020 there was resea

As a user I am usually disappointed by open source software when paid alternatives exist (adobe CC, games, office, 3d CAD) with few exceptions (blender), so no.

My point is not that your personal benefit isn't potentially good with organic, but like reducing carbon emissions, there is a deferred, nebulous benefit to consuming organic which is hard to value against the immediate increased cost.

I’ve noticed that projects like this primarily focus on recruiting for software roles (which is understandable if they are shared here), but what are the roadblocks to listing traditional engineering roles (mechanical, electrical, etc). Lac

Just spitballing here: when I copy photos from my iPhone via usb to pc there are two files: the image and a .mov for a Live Photo. My guess is the metadata is lost when exporting to google photos, like usb, so you lose the “Live Photo”.

I think the reality is not just that Best Buy is (maybe) creating fake reviews or removing bad ones, but that most reviewers only rate with 1 star or 5 stars. The majority of reviews I find are in one of those two buckets, and only a handfu

But this is true for the game console market in the comment I originally replied to. When you buy a game you are locked in, you can't put your Halo disk in a playstation or transfer your Nintendo store purchases to Xbox. If you have an

I imagine there is a lack of incentive to take on additional 0% loans unless legally required, due to the repayment becoming a loss for not even covering inflation.

In addition to increased equity, I’d argue original residents also have an opportunity to take advantage of the increase in commerce with increased foot traffic to existing businesses or creating and supporting new businesses.

I’m skeptical of this metric because the data seems to come from app usage and excludes auto traffic as a transit focused app. In SF I would peg the movement well above 8%. Maybe this app is mostly used by Euros and tourism is the gap...

I blame this on iTunes, not Spotify, when I first got into music because I didn’t want to spend all my cash on an entire album for just one or two tracks I really liked. Up until the last 5 or so years I rarely took the time to listen to a
