And once it stops working for insomnia, get ready for some restless limbs. That was my experience, at least. I've found melatonin and a tea with valerian root, chamomile, and a few other extracts (called sleepytime tea) works much bett

Known dose, sure. A lot of medical shops are posting independent lab measurements of all of the independent cannabinoids (most importantly: thc, cbd, cbn, cbg). So if you had a mg-accurate scale, and a bit of math, and assuming 100% uptake

Someone who isn't me helped work on this portion of the project. The system UI was written and re-written a half dozen times. They tried to do it internally, they tried design agencies, they tried consultants, and all failed miserably.

The real problem is that to compete in today's world, your website: 1. Needs to have great design 2. Needs to be rock-solid in terms of stability 3. Needs to be snappy to use 4. Needs to be able to handle a Reddit traffic swarm 5. Need

If your primary point of "this is garbage" is because it's funded by labor unions, you've got bigger problems than your flawed logic.

Once you start calling colleges "Indoctrination Factories," we can safely ignore anything else you have to say. If your point is salient, you won't have to insult the very people you're trying to convince.

That's fine, unless the last 5+ years of bokeh-fetishism has turned it into the modern-day equivalent of solar flare photoshops. It's basically a big "look how much lens I can afford!" dick-waving contest. Since you&#x27

That's the real advantage of the lasers. The beams will essentially travel at the speed of light. At 10 miles, and a C of 186,000 miles per second, that's 10/186000 seconds to go 10 miles. At that distance, refraction and dif

i think it's largely a misinformation campaign to keep people who aren't doing anything illegal from anonymizing their traffic. I like the idea of using Tor, but from what I can see, there's nothing of value for me on there.

Your browser fingerprint appears to be unique among the 4,697,679 tested so far. Currently, we estimate that your browser has a fingerprint that conveys at least 22.16 bits of identifying information. Well, shit. I'm a snowflake.

I think the benefit is that people don't want to say they're Java programmers. It's like a hipster thing. Most modern scala programmers don't even use the language correctly, or couldn't write "hello world" if it wasn't in the play framewor

yes, but you also don't get paid out vacation time when you leave, and there's always this social pressure to not take long trips (3 weeks, anyone?)

This is why any competent computer worker should never accept a salaried position. Sure, it's cool to say "I make 100k/yr!", but it's much cooler to say "I make 65/hr, but I got paid for that 4-hour conference call last night to troubleshoo

I think the reason we haven't is many-fold: - We all believe we're above average in our field, and unions would hold us back. - We all know people who have skated by on incompetence, and wouldn't want a union to protect their jobs. - Our fi

Transcribing audio is not programming. Programming has very exacting syntax. Anything that helps (color coding, syntax highlighting, etc) speeds things up. Have you ever tried to write Java without an ide? There's no possible world in which

It might just be me, but personally I don't understand what is so bad about plain old Rocks. Everything I've ever hammered (except at work where I'm forced to use other) has been done by Rocks (or, if I'm feeling in the mood to have some re

when i last used ec2, it was almost exclusively for async backend processes. in those cases, high throughput is important, but latency is not a factor in the same way. If there's a 300ms delay talking to the system from the outside world, i
