Absolutely. Living in Alberta which is very far north, I've seen what can happen if you don't take proper vitamin d supplements regularly. Almost everyone I know is on a very high regular dosage of vitamin d over the winter and a

My bad. I didn't mean scuttle and leave there. I meant take apart with welding torches. Not sure what the proper term is for that. However they got it moving so we are all good to go.

I'm not cheering anything on. I'm saying that there are many reputable groups that tried and got results. Including NASA themselves. It's important to disprove this solidly by having more than one group test and have a negati

There's a reason to separate your accounts receivable from payables. To separate invoicing from receipts. And so on and so on. You don't realize it until you suddenly realize why it was such a bad idea to have one point of failure

Oh absolutely. Medication should be a last option or an emergency option for most cases.

The item I find with this is once it's online... it's never going away. Not without some form of incredible draconian overarching system. What could even be done with situations like this. Short of insisting that any content provi

Having worked on billing and accounting systems for decades now. I am constantly amazed by all of the edge cases and situations that have to be handled to ensure that every bill is correct and nothing is missed or misbilled. Especially sinc

One of the biggest surprises to me when I was taking advanced psychopathology courses was how little certainty there was around antidepressants and much of the drugs used to treat psychological disorders. For some people they work absolutel

Pretty much. The code base is likely immense. The amount of cost for lawyers and engineers would easily outweigh any benefit for LG.

So every city with tax credits. Every county with a tax benefit. Taxes is not just a federal thing here.

I am being unbelievably charitable. Honestly I chalk it up to culture and the elitist attitude that permeates it. However at the same time there is a reason I specifically state after a few drinks. At least then it gives them an out. I know

I used to joke when I left academia that this combined with the imposter effect was why academia in the west is totally stalled. So many professors are positive they understand everything outside of their little silo as deeply as their silo

It's funny because this goes both ways. So often people copy and paste the code from an answer without looking closely at it and understanding it. In some cases potentially opening themselves up to some major issues. But yeah. Just lik

I find the concern about ML wiping out jobs to be someone misplaced. Similar to the fear of automation getting rid of jobs. Many more jobs came to fruition from the creation and maintenance of the machines. As well the machines opened up mo

I would love to hear how they intend to enforce such a global minimum tax rate. As well how they would guarantee that no country offers a tax credit or otherwise to lower the numbers. And then, of course, there's the really common tric

To be honest. I've been introduced to some translated soviet Russian literature of late that is absolutely fascinating. Especially in the descriptions of daily life and struggles in the soviet cities which do not deviate anywhere near

While I will accept these results if valid. I sincerely hope that other labs are able to reproduce these results and the concept isn't dismissed out of hand. While it's good to have multiple labs trying to reproduce results, that

This is absolutely fascinating to watch how a single ship van basically stop 10-15% of world trade cold with little effort. It's especially amazing finding out more and more how thoroughly stuck this ship is.
