My wife and I struggle with infertility, I have family members with a history of miscarriage, and my wife leads a women’s infertility support group. American culture does not know what to do about natal issues. (Arguably, no culture ever ha

Really appreciate that @antirez takes the time to add features in a way that doesn’t negatively impact old features where possible, for example if I don’t want to use ACL, I don’t have to jump through hoops or assign universal high level ac

Paraphrased - How should giving feedback work? > Precisely how it will be received most effectively. - How is that? > You must learn that for every person. Here are some ideas. This is something that I feel like many in engineering

Part of it is just people - I had a co-worker once that their supervisor (remote) did the same thing, bought training courses for them, instructed them to make it part of their schedule to do the courses and learn more, assigned another dev

Don’t have immediate plans to homeschool our children (4 and less than a year). We have found that the 4 year old does much better with outside authority than with us, plus he is a highly social creature who will benefit from the relations

Yes, you are essentially correct - it was a well-intentioned reform that has not been re-evaluated for current times, or it is judges who lack personal finance skills or realities to know that the bails they impose are not realistic for tho

In theory you get the money back. In practice, you have to borrow the money from a bail bondsman who has the cash on hand to post bail, and then pay him a percentage for his services. There are also jurisdictions which charge filing and han

Not a linguist, but isn’t the influence of Arabic on both languages at around the same time seem worthy of considering? There seem some similarities with some of the words they mention as similar between Basque and Armenian (note, also not

Likely due to the 1200 baud modem used having some traits that aren’t easily handled and would require some very specialized code to handle. Great, now you have two pieces of esoteric code that need to be supported. They likely have a comf

I'm a big fan of Chris Taylor and his games, the modding community around TA led 14-15 year old me to learn how to program so I could make my own mods. I think one of the most underrated things about the best of Chris' games is t

Kabuli Pulau is fantastic. I used to live down the street from a kebab shop that had the best kebab and pulau, all cooked on outdoor grills in front of it. Fantastic food, and I wish there were more good Afghan places in the U.S. I'

Depending on where you live, the reason also could be because there is a refugee population that has been resettled in that city. Omaha, where I live, has a growing local chain of Thai restaurants (Salween, if you live here) that are owned

I worked for a company that has been in the tech side of this space since 2004 until acquisition last year. You'll notice that the discussion in this article (which seems to be submarine PR for Cargill) talks about Cargill and ADM&#x2

Going by this : https://www.philanthropy.com/article/What-Donor-Advised-Fund... it looks like average fees are around 1% for DAFs. Vanguard is cheaper, at .6 percent, but the SVCF, referenced in the article, is at 1%.

The two major problems with DAFs stem from the fact that they are designed to give advantages to donors immediately but not require any further interaction. Problem - the organization most benefited by DAFs seem not to be charities, but Van

Obviously, there are many different ways to view the Bible and Christianity. As another practicing Christian, I'd say that the most important thing to understand that the Bible is about the revelation of Jesus, and the book is through

That makes sense. The data set is going to be in the health area, and I'm less concerned about processes for the individuals in the organization having access (like what you've suggested) and more thinking about how to structure

But if I do need the original data back, say, the driver needs to produce an expense report with the hours, what would you do in that case? I have thoughts, but trying to bounce off of someone else.

This is a question that I've thought of recently, as I am going to be working with a set of data that is the kind of data that may have damaging personal repercussions if identified with you but is good for society as a whole to be tr

Probably not on quinoa, I have no idea. But something like Kernza needs a jumpstart to market, and if it is easy to grow in the backyard or in a community plot, that could be a jumpstart.

by russnewcomer 9y ago
Absolutely, it's not easy to process. But if it can be easy to grow like a decorative grass, space is less of an issue as it can be like a decorative grass. And my point is not that Americans will ever grow something like Kernza en m

This is one reason why I think they need to push the home-growing aspect more. If they can get people introduced to the taste and concept, and it becomes some trendy thing like quinoa, the market for farmers explodes.

Toys! Our local library has tons of toys to checkout. Been great to give our small child who likes new things for a while a semi-constant stream of new toys, that are in better shape or fancier than the $1 garage sale toys he usually gets
