Personal experience with the mother telling the nurse emphatically not to use an intervention, to have it ignored and done anyway at the behest of a doctor that isn't even on site. It was convenient for the doctor and had nothing to d

Many doctors nudge, or even push, decisions towards things that are convenient or good for them. Time table for the birth, treatment that enriches them... This includes unnecessary surgeries and labor inducement. The decision is left up to

One of the secrets to a relatively easy teenager is to be very active in spending time with them, and especially listen to your children when they are younger. Hear the fanciful stories and their young adventures and treat them with dignit

39 isn't too old to have a child. Yes, some of the risk factors are higher but it can reasonably be done and lots of people have done it. You can also adopt. Talk to your spouse and figure out how to dive in. You were meant to be a f

Might call node.js the same thing. Deno has a rust shell and bun is zig. Just-js had spent a lot of resources optimizing the input and output gateways to the V8 engine and it obviously pays off nicely. It does serve requests with the JS.

And yet the top js entry is above all c# and go entries. It takes the top overall on the composite score. Not that it is representative of actual use cases. Can't use just-js in production as it's hyper optimized for this benchm

Most of these stated problems just go away if you choose a co-location vs your previous on prem. Whenever I price out cloud rentals, I consistently find that the fees will equal the cost of the machine in less than a year.

Yet your conclusion, spoken as if it is a universal truth, is wrong in many instances. There have been numerous events of a concealed weapon holder killing an individual intent on a mass murder event that's just getting started. They

My speculative call is that it will go down, haven't hit bottom yet. Nvidia is sitting on a bunch of ampere stock, the miner liquidation, and new gen cards coming out. My guess is January-February when the Christmas buying season is pa

The numbers aren't as good as the native proponents claim. A lot of sites put on a full court press to use native going so far as to intentionally cripple web in mobile. This is the environment that produces the numbers cited from ti

They do enough to avoid the ire of the business that would get them fired. Coasting because they can. Which I thought fits pretty well.

There are plenty who don't really engage in work during regular working hours. I lead a team and don't ask for overtime and try to shield my reports from such demands from above. It's not a good long term strategy, I prefer

I use borg backup for this very use case. Not free, certainly. But it's a system requirement there to be able to rebuild the system in a non AWS environment.

I like offline first app design, and have built several. However, I don't do it anymore unless there is a very clear use case and direct customer benefit. Some apps just don't work offline at all. One of the decision trees is yo

First assumption is faulty. That a nuclear war would "destroy the earth". It would not destroy the planet nor render it significantly uninhabitable. Which leads you to poor conclusions. It does have significant consequences, wi
