I didn’t expect a global pandemic either. Nobody expects the Spanish Inquisition. Nobody is forcing anybody to house people for free. Sure, you can’t evict, but you can sell your property and let that be someone else’s problem. The fact i

As a landlord, I expected to loose money during the pandemic. One of the risks you take on is that the rental market changes and you can't get as much money for your property as you planned on. I have no sympathy for landlords who go

The decision talks about a gates-up-or-down analysis, which seems like the seed of a reasonable test: when the gates are up, entering a restricted area isn’t criminalized; when the gates are down, picking the lock or finding a home in the w

What’s really missing in the analysis is the base rate of WIV workers visiting the hospital with cold symptoms. I’ve heard plausible explanations for why it might be pedestrian or why it might be exceptional, but it’s all meaningless witho

I think the problem with the deception test is that if the login screen for the DMV database access had a checkbox that said "I am only using the system in a way consistent with department policies" or something, then you could ar

It varies by population density. Where i grew up, a small town surrounded by many rural and semi-rural areas, the nearest high school to mine was about 20mi away, and most attendees did not live in reasonable walking distance to any high sc

A resistive electric heater can be PWM'ed to provide variable output. If you want to maintain a narrow temperature band, you can do that better by feeding the water temperature into your PID loop and have it control the PWM duty cycle

55kW at 240V is only 230A. A typical house gets 200A service. It’s a lot of power, but you wouldn’t have to move mountains to get it if you worked at a lab that needed it. It could be had for less than the price of many used cars.

Unless the cops were told they absconded with the truck. An abusive trucking company can accuse their drivers of steeling trucks or cargo when they're behind schedule. I've never heard of that happening, but I don't doubt th

As other responders have pointed out, the interest should be 2.5% x 1,000 Guilders, not 2.5% of the amount of gold that was in 1,000 Guilders in 1,648. Its worth going through the math: 2.5% x 1,000 Guilders = 25 Guilders. The Netherlands

Auto layout is still pretty terrible and used sparingly. I would guess it’s more 30 years improvement in CAD - it’s easier to keep fiddling with the layout until you make it work than it used to be.

I live in an exceptionally dry area - I'm taking the humidity from too-low-to-register-on-the-hygrometer to 30%RH - so there's no material mold risk either around the windows or in the HVAC ducting.

Last winter I installed a whole house humidifier and I couldn’t be happier. Very little maintenance, marked reduction in dry nose and cracked skin. Easily handles the whole house. As a DIY project I would rate it’s difficulty as moderate.

I followed your first link on Safari. Some things look fine. Some things are ugly, which is too bad but tolerable. If it was just that, I might consider MathML. But some things are rendered in a way that changes their meaning, and that’s to
