I'm always wary of a Sir Gawain and Greenknight sort of situation. And sure you'll say it's only ping pong: But that's how they get you.

I imagine he could do a fair amount of cool stuff with a mill, but his shtick (as far as I can tell) is to push 3d printing as far as he can to implement interesting stuff.

Yeah, I suspect doctors would usually just call it by the abbreviation, SHH or what not and leave it at that. Osteomorphs doesn't sound that bad as long as the doctor doesn't add the origin. Sounds like a standard Greek medical

Someone in the middle (ercot) could also go bankrupt (strategically or not). It'll be interesting to see if TX makes any major structural fixes or just slaps a band-aid on it (e.g., legislate some max rate or maybe special rules under

I didn't mean to imply they were in state. My split up wasn't orthogonal: I just wanted to note the interesting parts were small-money donations (as you note from in and out of state) as well as money from the national committees

A ton of small-dollar donations are flowing into Harrison's campaign as well as plenty from national sources. Graham is not well-liked by either side really.

Yeah, I don't know the area well at all. It seems like at some point you'll have to pay for the grid directly (ie, the power will be free-ish, you'll pay for the size of the wire to your house).

I'm sure GP means they are not explicitly about calculating a circle. Lots of values of pi occur in various formulas all of which end up going back to a circle or trig function at some point, (for example fourier transforms, normal dis
