I see that it works fine for me also on mobile. Somehow they have managed to neuter the desktop experience. A perfect demonstration of PWA today.

This page was the first time I had heard of the Contact Picker API. I tried to select the text to google it and this page has somehow disabled select/copy/paste of text. This is an ironic way to show that the web is just as capabl

The requirement [0] is “Must reject entry to anyone using a fake or duplicate ID.” I gather that the bars have determined that the easiest way to detect duplicate IDs is to outsource to these services that capture IDs and can be queried at

Do you think it is acceptable for scooters to be blocking sidewalks? Quite a few elderly people in my neighborhood have thanked me for removing them.

I was surprised to learn that scooters can report when they have fallen over. Every time I encounter one blocking a sidewalk, I move it off the sidewalk and knock it over. I am pleased to know that this might show up as a metric when custom

Absolutely not. I think we should fund a Natural Responsible Motherhood Clearinghouse and host it at motherhood.gov. But telling women to be responsible mothers is not as politically easy as telling men to be responsible fathers.

In my experience, many mothers are not getting any prenatal care. Many are pregnant before they know it and do not discontinue activities which will harm their child.

That there is a Federally funded Natural Responsible Fatherhood Clearinghouse at fatherhood.gov and not an equivalent motherhood.gov reminds me of Paul Graham's "What You Can't Say" [0][1][2]. How much suffering could we

I would hope that there is some optimal balance. A lot of my childhood was spent doing manual labor for money. A lot of that was wasted opportunity to learn more and get experience that would have benefited me financially later on.

From the context, I would guess that your cabin in the woods has at least one smartphone in it. Does it have an Alexa or other device that is known to listen?

I find them very useful when decomposing large functions that have a lot of internal state and when using callbacks without exposing more state outside of the function. I wish more languages supported them.

I am an employer who is required to use E-Verify. Very few employers use E-Verify. There is no verification of the social security number done for an I-9 form if the employer is not using E-Verify.
