It's not a scientific publication though... it's the NYTimes. The main story is that the guys managed a summit in 3 days. For all the controversy around Xenon and it's effects as a PED in sport the combo of hypoxia tents and

Depends, it can also mean "this hasn't really been studied well" if there just hasn't been much research into it. I just pulled all the times it talked about studies or another expert talking about it being ineffective.

Holding your kid back because they'll be bored by the ponderous pace of public school education isn't the answer you're looking for. Continue to be an active parent and find them a different school or a program within the sch

I think that's unlikely if the kid is doing it on their own they're likely getting something out of it. Even if they're not fully understanding what they're reading it's REALLY unlikely they're just mechanicall

It's a trademark thing, brands are really protective of them because the rules around dilution are a bit murky so they err on the side of trying to stamp out any unauthorized use just to make it clear it's in use and protected so

You get a working web cam. It's a requirement for many remote proctoring services and if you don't have access to one you're screwed. I get why they use it, without it there's no way to know you're not on your phone

Remote proctoring programs at least are pretty rough these days. Their environment conditions are pretty exacting and then they expect you to just stare at the screen and think for basically the whole exam. Minor normal webcam problems can

There's still a lot of work to be done. It's good at making short individual scenes but when you start trying to string them together the wheels start to come off a lot. This [0] pretty basic police raid leads to shootout video fo

I also like 'last 4 digits only' as if that's not the most important parts and the part so many places use to validate your identity, the first 5 are just area and group so they're not exactly random.

It definitely feels like the US could have swung the other way, we were deeeep into eugenics over here long before the war and there was plenty of explicit support for the american Nazi party.

I wonder if there's similar gaps in AMD hardware? Seems like speculative execution is simply an extremely hard to patch vulnerability in a share processor space so I wonder how AMD has avoided it.

True I meant more in the political/economic sphere. Being isolated geographically from both WW1 and WW2 was a major boon to the US economy, we got the economic benefit of the wars without the damage (beyond lives lost of course). And a

My point is that dominance flows from the fact that every other major world power of the age got massively bombed and the US didn't. Just look at the graph of pre-War GDPs and note how far you have to scroll down before you see a count

If they're not drive why connect them at all? Why not have them mounted independently and eliminate the need for an extra part? My only real guess is it's easier for carrying capacity.
