Ghost is pretty decent, but it ties you to the node/npm upgrade treadmill and has a few weirdnesses like pushing very hard to get people to sign up for Mailgun instead of using their own mail server.

Approving a drug based on a theory that it might help is not a good approach. If you're asking for approval to sell a drug to the public you need more than a hope. Some degree of solid proof that there are better outcomes with it than

It says available to them, not that they have to have another citizenship or that they can actually obtain one. All the government has to do is declare they're eligible regardless of what the other country says.

I'm not sure "known" is very comforting when we have no reason to believe that we have a complete inventory of all possible prion diseases in humans.

It looks like instead of the config option switching everything to use the same normalization it keeps a second copy of the name in a database to compare to. What a horrible kludge, I wonder how they even got into this situation of using di

It's not just the non-police record holder's own liability, it's very common to be subpoenaed over a case you're not party to and those can easily turn into expensive fishing expeditions. No excuse for the cops and prett

Supporting 911 calls with the bare 911 number is not the same as overriding the phone's default 911 handling and I doubt the FCC has any regulation that says a provider functioning as a third party on a phone is required to _replace_ &

That's a really weak gotcha: Perl 4 was deprecated 28 years ago and Perl 6 is a completely different language that's been called Raku since 2019. There are no dependencies to resolve between them. It's like worry about depend
