For most users who are emailing, reading some web forum, social media, and maybe office that matters very little. Even fully up to date there is always another zero day, so for individuals doing nothing of particular importance the best bet

Tom green was even ahead of them. Who can forget the air brushed lesbians on his dads car, his dad deciding to take the bus to his government job, and then Tom trying to pick his dad up at the bus stop in the car.

Say people with the skills and incentives to build these systems all go to faangs where they can make 500k/yr and have the budget to build the system since that system is the revenue generator. Everywhere else it is 150k-200k a year wi

A 777-300 holds 388 passengers, so 39,000 lbs extra would be significant. Is the average American 100 lbs heavier than the average person from the rest of the world? Probably nowhere near that.

Only when demand exceeds supply and people have that extra income. Edit: which is common in desirable places with lots of well paying jobs. There are cheap places to rent and buy in the fly over states but not as much opportunity, hence the

Thanks for your comment. In ww1 about 25,000 conscripted Canadians were sent over seas, in ww2 12,000. Many more were conscripted but didn’t leave the country. I didn’t realize Canada had conscription at all, or the divide between French a

Wow, I happened to watch the pianist last night, a movie about the Jewish ghetto in Warsaw during world war 2, which only mentioned treblinka in passing, and then came across your comment today. I read the whole interview. Both the movie an

They did have samples of a 98% similar virus collected from the miners working in the bat cave who had died years earlier. The virus had a different name like ratg or something.

The lab leak theory doesn’t imply that the virus was created, or gain of functioned, in the lab, merely that it was studied there and escaped. The lab leak theory doesn’t imply unnatural origins.

Thank you. The article notes that other pressures such as overfishing also contribute to the decline of fish populations, and that fish ladders on the Columbia river are successful. No doubt there are some ineffective fish ladders out there

Thanks for the details. I have not worked on a plant that had intake gates upstream of a headpond so was curious as to what the layout was. The nice thing about hydro is that just about every plant is unique!
