Our 2.5 yo daughter was IVF- we were told there was “total tubal blockage” and “next logical step [was] IVF” after frozen transfer, genetic testing, injections, implementation etc, we were certainly close to that $50k (US.SoCal). roll in $3

I read this and thought; I sure hope so if I’ve made it this far in life not knowing. I believe someone’s rectangle plant-identified this particular one as European Yew (Taxus baccata). None of us had encountered it before and this particul

I was in Cape Cod for a wedding late last year with some friends, and came across what we later learned was a Yew. Some of us had popped into an ice cream shop, and one of the members of my party apparently decided to eat a sweet berry whil

Both TFA and your comment raise valid concerns. That said, some points in both seem to conflate Bitcoin with traditional monetary systems in ways that don’t quite hold for me. TFA: Bitcoin and Quantum Risk > Global Infrastructure can be

Yes it is. I was on mobile definitely didn’t scroll far enough for the giant “Why Rust” where the TFA addresses my needless snark head on. > It’s tempting to try to sweep this under the rug because it feels gauche to say, but it’s actual

Me too. I just keep watching the crustea-culting and wondering if I’m actually missing out.

Worked for them in various capacities for 6 years. It’s still what’s mostly in my house and mostly what I recommend for lighting control on projects. I’ll admit I have been eying Casambi with some interest.

and we’re all better off for it, including PG&E, who doesn’t have to transmission lines over more (un)maintained wilderness, which is where many of the fires come from in the first place.

Same here. When you say your own email, do you mean Fastmail? I love Proton and they got me and my SO largely off of Google. Fastmail is just so good, I’m going to migrate everything there eventually.

Takes me back over a decade ago, working for a manufacturer that used a “Wi-Fi setup network” on many of their products, I started encountering early versions of “WIPS” (wireless intrusion prevention systems) that would leverage these deaut

I’d also be interested in this. Right now, I use Fastmail with a partner and we use the new “Notes” feature to track what’s been open/plan for response.

Do you have any details on your workflow for reports? I “think” in .mds and the. use a VScode extension that creates to PDF on .md save with a custom/header footer template- works 95% of the time but it’s more brittle than I’d like.

I’ve been running quarto [0] for a few months now and I’m happy with it. Posts are saved as .qmd, with a little bit of special front matter for formatting and tagging. `quarto render` converts the .qmd(s) according to a simple config file.

I agree! Visualizing a workflow or a project this way seems to have a ton of potential. I already keep most of my knowledge in Obsidian or template folder structures, and this provides a really neat way to visualize it. An immediate use cas

Since no other navy nukes have chimed in on this thread to speak about ETMS—eutectic point is a huge piece of the puzzle and there are tradeoffs for selecting between 60/40 and 63/37. Fillets suck, bifurcated terminals are worse.

I think the comment from cosmicradiance is more in the spirit of HN. I’m guessing I’m 10 years older than OP, and started devops when LAMP was king. It’s a lot less abstract when you actual install, configure and start the service, as oppos

I acknowledged that in my comment. Part of my point here is that UL is not exactly a disinterested 3rd-party when it comes to endorsing additional layers of certification.

That’s what I remember. Someone got me “Chicken Soup for the Teenage Soul” (I was 8 or 9). It had a section called “Tough Stuff” and it had stories of abusive parents and family. I think my parents blindly let me read it because of the “Cri

Yes, the thermostatic mixing valve is worth understanding- it’s pretty neat.

How does, “people who have no business SCUBA diving a protected reef due to lack of fitness” strike you? As with eBikes, just about anyone could strap on a SCUBA and visit places they otherwise couldn’t (IMO shouldn’t). The fact is, some

I top post because I hate the inconsistency of how message threads are handled. If someone can point me to a primer I’d greatly appreciate it. Outlook, Apple Mail, iOS all seem to handle it slightly differently.

I have to admit, begrudgingly, that the Tesla App experience “JustWorksTM.” This is the 3rd I’ve picked up (3, Y, Y) and this time, I didn’t even have to pair my phone. I was signed into my existing app and my new Y just changed from an ord
