The prevalence of dementia vs. latitude would be an interesting factor to see included in any study regarding Vitamin D. I must be missing something... too easy? What is it? This study seemed to miss some pretty basic baselines: > They

It was a great OS, NT 4.0 with the rough edges smoothed off. I stayed with it as long as I could.

I have both and there is nothing the electric one (Makita 36V) can't shift. You just have to walk a bit closer... The downside for me really is the runtime.

IMO where they really excel is getting grass clippings and detritus out of flower beds and off gravel, places where a broom or rake don't work at all. And once you're using a blower for that, you may as well use it for the leaves

Borrowing from the Sinclair QL? https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sinclair_QL It did not do well, but not due to the name. Brilliant commercial though! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AO5BUIKykMM

Right, don't make a non-reversible connector appear reversible... I would have thought this is Connector 101. It's so bad it takes me 3 attempts to plug in USB-A blind, at least 50% of the time.

Wow, those watercolors are astonishing.

"solution looking for a problem" Which is perhaps why it really only has a (consumer) foothold in gaming; it's not offering a solution to a real problem, it's selling an entertainment experience.

I had a lot of fun with Dog's Life!! "The software development was chaotic. The chaos provided a lot of freedom and opportunity but caused some serious problems too." Love this insight.

Viability is a given. But palatability? That's like giving up and saying there are no solutions to hard problems.

Yes this might be: Windows is included with an Office 365 sub.

If this comes to pass that might actually be true in some sense.

Conveniently ignoring the persecution of minorities. This has been going on for decades and continues to this day. E.g. the Baha’is From 2008. Just the first paragraph will do. https://news.bahai.org/story/632/ 20

I love my CD collection, also been collecting since 1989/90, a new one arrived in the mail today and I buy used on eBay frequently. It's a musical guide to my life since then. I also went through the MP3/streaming route but i

A 233Mhz StrongARM coprocessor plugged into an Acorn RISC PC around 1994 was astonishing to behold. 233Mhz! RiscOS flew! That could have been the future.

Cars have gotten heavier and heavier, which explains some of it but not all of it. My 10 year old 4000lbs 3.5L sedan gets better mpg than lighter 2024 cars with less powerful, smaller engines... I think aero probably plays a part (sleek sed

That's a reaction to deep if-else's - and they can happen in the happy path, independently of error handling. I don't recall this requiring much code mangling though? It means defining the return variable at entry and set its

This is why I don't feel bad ordering smaller items from Amazon when I could drive across town and get it myself. But Uber eats and DoorDash are a reality, and I would pay someone to pick something up for me from Home Depot within the
