Totally me. I’ve read far more than I’ll ever hear. And I’m terrible at pronouncing things correctly because it’s almost pure visual memory.

And steal all their data and be generally aweful vs the relative “we just pass the mail” of the USPS. No thanks.

More people need to talk about what Purdue is doing. They’ve held tuition constant for 8 years since Mitch Daniels took over. https://www.purdue.edu/newsroom/releases/2019/Q1/purdue-anno...

Don’t use Tex if you’re aiming for web formats. There’s technically ways to do it but I’ve never found it effective. There’s a few high cost options used by technical writers that are likely overkill for what you need (Madcap Flare is one

That’s exactly what sentencing is for. The law is the law, but the judge and prosecutors adjust for severity.

Go find a biotech company hiring software engineers where the biochemists are in the same room/ building. Get a job there. Get to know biochemists and ask them about their work and work problems, listen to their talks, read a lot. Get

How about ... rural Indiana? Or any one of the local Midwest cities should be fine as long as you have a tornado cellar.

The bigger hurdle is the cost to redo roads. 2-6 million per mile of road. 4 million+ miles of road in US. It’s not so much the roads though, it’s the other cars and other things/people/animals in the way

Interesting thing I just found out about Bird scooters. They will allow you to drive into some neighborhoods, but can't be activated from that neighborhood. The neighborhoods you can't activate one from? Poor ones. If anyone has m

Totally agree. Verizon 5G just moved into my neigbhorhood. It was a Spectrum/Brighthouse monopoly until then. As a response, Spectrum cuts price by 65% to compete. Amazing what a little competition can do.

Counterpoint: My fortune 200 employer uses GitHub enterprise on site. It works great. I don’t get how you can say GitLab is the only choice?

You mean like what the sketchy reputation websites have? Or dark pattern home listing sites? Or pump and dump academia “social networks”? It’ll burn any goodwill you have in my book. No one wants to know you sucked up info about them and th

But, the best we know is the laws of physics are not deterministic! The quantum states that your neurons fire to is unknowable in advance and determined only at the point of measurement. Therefore, you are _free_ in the exact results of you

I think a couple of these stretch the credulity of being criteria of a “safe” device, compared to your original list. The hardware/software must be fully documented reads as “must be open source”. There needs to be some incentive for q

I hear you, but “ethical failure year is worse than the sale of tobacco” is a stretch. Tobacco killed millions. Homeopathic stuff is typically harmless and not a major killer. Also I usually find Tylenol PM just fine at my cvs. Along with b

We don't take away from the democratic process that which is hard to understand. Your concern has been raised by politicians for hundreds of years. All it would take (in the US) for the the representative congress to pass a new law whi

Two counterpoints: 1) There’s _tons_ of other reasons to get a PhD than to become a professor. So the number is a lot higher than 1.1. 2) I can only see it as naive on the part of students to think they can become one unless they’re able to

So, has anyone made a “old school smartphone dock”? What I want is a dock I can put my smartphone into and then the old phone interface takes over. Preferably one with links to 1-2 other docks in the house so all three ring if I get a call.

Agreed here. If any breastfeeding issues definitely check for tongue tie. Also know that some hospitals won’t diagnose it at all (but not tell you that’s their policy) or only the severe cases. Check with an independent specialist if that’s

It doesn’t need to be any better to satisfy this user. I also pull it out 2-4 times a year and am happy that everything has more or less stayed the same for 8+ years.
