Yes. I did. Full extraction of upper right #2 molar. They did topical numbing, then 4 shots in numbed area. The extractor device is 2 prongs on one side, and 1 on the other. It mates with your tooth's root. There's also a gum sepa

Wow. And here I thought they were going to discuss vectorization of the English language, akin to how Word2Vec does it. Instead it's first grader style writing with fake subtraction of letters such. That's a tremendous let down.

This potentially derails the conversation, but also falls within your ire of fellow US citizens' thoughts. What can I do, aside voting and emigration, that will make the US not "export democracy" and in general, not tamper wi

I'm a US citizen, and I'm ashamed of what my government does in my name. I was born here: no choice in that matter. My taxes are used to fund horrid and despicable things in our collective name, including messing in others soverei

Depends how those "containers" interact with the system at large. In the Windows world, it's common to have the libraries you need stored in ~/Program Files/Program_name/ . Now, each program dumps in its progra

That's full well and true for "transportation". The underlying issue is machine learning is making more and more jobs unemployable. Those jobs would not be economical for humans to do at any price (ie: $0). And saying that so

But the game isn't the performance on a machine, or even a few machines. The game are tools like Kubernetes and Apache Mesos. I have X thousand VMs spread out through the world, with a few hundred per datacenter for geo-stability. If a

I know I want to die. Not now. But later on. And then I want to be reborn soon there after to continue my works. The body will grow old, frail. It will slowly deteriorate, whereas my mental faculties will still be tied to this body. So let

But when I have to pay to play, I'll pass. It's a fools errand to extend a private platform like Slack. They're already adding IRC features to their system, along with running a modified IRC bouncer. Why play catch-up or copy
