I've spent the last decade exclusively on lower-end and more obscure linux laptops. Haven't had a single issue. I'm probably the exception that proves the rule though. I've found that most of the time it's not a lin

The meta-analysis is based on NO levels in the home, not stove use. Primarily this relates to gas heating. I'm aware of what it says. I'm not sure how what you're saying relates to my points. It looks to me like this article

It's purely a regression on latitude, temperature, and asthma prevalence by age group. I'm not suggesting that cold weather contributes to gas usage. Gas stoves / heat are more common the further north you get.

I'm going to put together two points that people have raised in this thread: 1) Asthma is strongly correlated with gas heating and stove use. 2) Gas heating and stove use is strongly correlated with latitude. This is a case of

I was really taken by the ideas behind this language the first time I saw it come up here. I'm really happy to see that it's still moving forward despite getting a somewhat lackluster response initially. I'm also really happy

As a right-handed person imagining writing left handed, I think the minimal inconvenience of learning to write with the other hand sounds like it far outweighs a lifetime of smeared ink. I don't think it would cause me too much inconve

I've seen this claim and associated study pop up a couple of times. The study is done year on year and it's been amusing watching the increasingly long lengths they go to to hide the fact that their comparing _average_ rent for a

We've been domesticating certain types of monkeys since before the pyramids my guy. They're not common pets in the western world, but we have been keeping them as pets for thousands of years.

This is likely because stabilizers don't make sense for the usecase of those in the southern US. Canoes there were typically used navigating between rivers, creeks, and lakes where the stabilizer would be cumbersome due to plant life a

But it does matter here, where we're talking about charging under time constraints...

And then the EV has to stop and charge for a couple hours. The ICE stops for gas for 10min. Also, check out records like the cross-country NY to LA cannonball run. Cars used there add additional gas tanks to extend range. I'd bet by th

Interested in why writing it in PHP made selling it a non-starter. I'd expect that if it provided value it wouldn't really matter much what it was written in.

I've started enjoying the game a lot more when I lowered my population limit (like to 10-15) and started playing smaller forts. Makes FPS death much less of a problem and means I can actually take care of my dwarves instead of rushing

I think it's a really important consideration of design that gets forgotten about in the name of "useability" and "discoverability". With a little practice a consistent keyboard interface is very fast. _Nobody_ is f

I am also not a seal, but this sounds really fascinating and so tantalizingly plausible.

Fair point if true, but without a source it sounds like speculation I'd still say that by the end of january, there was absolutely plenty of reason to sell off stock. A reasonable person absolutely would have made that decision based o

Okay, really though, what information did they have access to that wasn't publicly available already? It's one thing to trade on the knowledge of a bill or piece of legislation that you're voting on, especially if you're

Can you hook me up with a source? I'd check the torrent sites, but I want to support the artists ya'know.

I agree that this comment wasn't _quite_ as substance based as many others in this thread, but I think it made an interesting comparison that I hadn't seen elsewhere. I've read the same thing said a hundred different ways in

Aaahhh! Yeah, that makes total sense. I was thinking about newly introduced symbols using let. I recently jumped from scheme to common lisp so I'm used to lets just shadowing other variables. Most of the major scheme implementations I&

by ruste 9y ago
I don't think so. _let_ is lexically scoped. What I was remembering was a syntax called parameterize in chicken scheme that would bind a set of values to a set of dynamic variables. You can see an example of it here: https:/&#x2F

by ruste 9y ago
IIRC scheme and probably common lisp have something like this: (call-with-dynamic-bind ((var1 val1)(var2 val2)...) stuff...) It lets you introduce dynamically scoped variables that work pretty much the way you described.
