It's worth making the distinction between frontlit and backlit ereaders too. I have a frontlit Nook and other than the lights being a bit bluer than I'd like, it's much more comfortable to read on than my tablet at the lowest

My POV: Even with extraordinarily high taxes at the higher tiers of the brackets, is that not enough for the rich to live quite well? IFF funding government (for example, if an effective basic income program was in place) was better than ev

As the other reply says " Please learn how marginal tax brackets and rates work before talking about the issue where people can hear you. "

Thanks! Added another table with modern day $$$. Big numbers!

Tax brackets. The government isn't entitled to 80% of what _any_ person earns, just a portion of what the _richest_ earn. Looking at GP's PDF for 1945: Income Take home $10,000 $7,060 $20,000

Thanks for correcting me. I knew the physics behind it, so I'm not entirely sure why I've never self corrected that belief.

Active noise cancelling still adds to the absolute volume, doesn't it? I use some headphones intended for muffling yardwork at the lowest setting to have music drown out frequent background noises (carts moving by, nearby keyboards) bu

It's not just capital cost for equipment that needs to be considered at this stage, but also the research needed to make suitable equipment for large scale production. Per the article, a 1"x1" section of metal takes an hour.

Then you use normal graph paper!

Yes, an easy way to tell is it will also be light green/yellow. I only have experience with Comet brand from the campus store. It used to be kind of hard to find engineering paper at a decent price online, so I just stock up whenever I

My favorite kind of graph paper is engineering paper. The grid is printed on the back, so when scanned it isn't visible. What it looks like in person: https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/5/55&#

I would guess worse, but in different ways. Your foot can shift in the sand left/right when landing, causing havoc on other joints (knee, hip) when you apply pressure and they're getting unexpected horizontal motion.

If you're not asking about running replacements in particular, there are books and books on primarily bodyweight exercises. That seems to be the appeal for running, that you can just do it with very little investment.

Yep, doing budgeting at the end of the month and I found a $20 Amazon charge. Turns out it was from a little bit of data I left on their DB service (which took _a lot_ of clicking to find the one I was actually using) after my free year had

Sounds like a good dichotomy to me. You are agreeing that autonomous <-> executive are two extremes of a spectrum, no?

Hardware: Closer to autonomous functions. Require no thought, you just do it. Example: Saying "Thank you" reflexively when someone does something kind. Software: Have to mentally process the situation. Did this person do something

Where did you see this was for a masters programme? Also, it depends. When I was working on my masters (which I didn't finish :) ), there were three options: * Thesis * Project * Extra Courses
