Hmm, just a gray screen here. I allowed Javascript and even permitted it to read canvas data. Does this only work on some specific browser?

Align it with business needs and observable outcomes. Does the company suffer from outages? (Not just have them—but actually suffer from them.) When there's a production incident, do a root cause analysis. If some of the root causes

Ouch, yeah, so the situation may actually be getting worse. The best camera is the one you have... and I'm not going to have any if I have to carry around extra lenses. Most of my photos are spur of the moment so I rely on being able t

What I can't figure out is how, in this day and age, to get a digital camera that does both macro and telephoto without requiring interchangeable lenses. 15 years ago, you'd get a Canon Powershot S1 or some other "bridge"

That is also not what the article is saying, which is that whales eat krill which eat phytoplankton which "eat" CO2—more whales = more phytoplankton.

Amalgam also requires larger fillings, meaning they remove more healthy tooth to fit it in. And the tooth has to be undercut a bit, since it doesn't bond like composite does. So amalgam also increases the chances of a tooth cracking la

As long as you're only doing reads, though, you can forego the locking and it's pretty nice! Definitely would not use in a read/write situation for a web API for various reasons, though. :-)

Wait, can I grow hemp now? (I'm in Massachusetts.) I've been wanting to grow it for a while as a fiber plant, which is what it used to be used for. (I mean, I'm going to do my research first to check state and federal laws,

Doctors often want to keep pneumonia patients "dry", that is, somewhat dehydrated. (That's maybe contributing to the kidney failure.) To what extent could this also be resulting in increased clotting?

Mozilla developed Rust specifically for this kind of rewrite. That was the entire point of it. (As relayed to me by one of the designers in 2011 or so.) They didn't think just a rewrite in C would be enough, they didn't think an
