Sounds like an inverse of the homebrew project...

Fair guess would be that you leaked that information somewhere along the way - putting the address into google maps, pulling up the dr office phone number on google proper etc.

I've had my professional-subscription Wall Street Journal app run a full page ad for frozen jamaican hot beef patties (so good...) that I bought a box of at costco earlier that morning. Pretty amusing, just given how off-brand that is

I would bet a large amount of money this is the correct answer. It certainly is the approach facebook has taken with their marketplace place search engine, where the signal to noise is just barely high enough to keep the audience and there

What's even the definition of "inclusive language"? I thought the whole idea behind certain groups embracing post-modernism lately was to avoid inconvenient things like reality; meaning is meaningless.

I find myself appending the word "forum" to a large percentage of my google queries these days, to avoid the dynamic you mentioned. This essentially filters the results for real/original content of other people that were look

This has been educational for me as well - I happen to have a clear view of the building from the coffee area of our office and have been wondering for quite some time now what that neo-brutalist looking thing actually is. Vaguely reminisce

Rather than anything related to my personal views, there is a pattern of what I mentioned above coming from people that identify as progressive; and certainly the narrative that I alluded to(and the broader idea behind it(1) ) is a progress

"forced to overwork and underpay people in jobs which have suckers lining up to fill them" The first half of your sentence is incongruent with latter half. If you have people lining up for the position, you are demonstrably not un

People see what people want to see. An average family with two toddlers using bicycles to get around in the dead of Chicago winter. Sure, sure. I would wager that the vast majority of the folk here that are pushing this romanticized idea of

It's peculiar that left leaning people profess that supply/demand based systems work only in circumstances that line up with their preset beliefs (or more accurately, the narrative they are to express); almost certainly a cognitiv

The worse part, at least to me, is that that these shallow gestures presumably work, that somehow empty posturing on progressive-cause-du-jour actually does buy them goodwill in the western world. It's either that, or this entire thing

I'm guessing the harness of the paint was the issue - virtually all of them would start to rust from the beltline door trim, presumably because the trim itself managed to wear through the paint.

Broadcasting your bona fides far and wide is certainly en vogue in certain circles; anecdotally speaking, the incidence of people manifesting their vanilla pronouns is orders of magnitude higher than otherwise. Seems it's on par with y

> Do you disagree that illegal numbers exist? Well yes, the notion of illegal numbers is a construct of the silly argument presented. You can decompose anything proscribed into the elements that make it up and then try to claim the eleme

This line of argument is rather asinine - any information can obviously be encoded into a number, prime or otherwise. Given that there are infinite primes and any amount of proscribed information (national security information, child pornog

IMO Facebook got caught up in the media Trump hysteria over the "hacked elections" narrative and at that point they were SOL. PR in that context is ineffective, because Facebook's message would be going against deep-set belie

DTCC is a central authority by definition; there's no amount of handwaving that you can do to make a distributed quorum system fit this particular problem...unless you're just trying to raise VC money.
