There's a lack of nosological classification of meaningful sub-types of depression and their specific dysfunctions. It's currently scatter-gun, medieval treatments without bothering to measure or understand the systems affected.

From the comments as of writing, few read between the lines of this sloppy reporting: it's to standardize cloud-desktop apps for Amazon's internal use . Meta, for example, consolidated to Workplace + Google, away from Dropbox, Mi

The city of Austin is floating legislation to allow up to 3 housing units per property including campers, RVs, and tiny homes.

Find me one contemporary example (ANSI C) with a disassembled screenshot. This is writing sizeof(char) (== 1 almost everywhere) zero to address zero. It is not using a NULL macro or other predefined symbol. In the real world, this would gen

This statement would be technically legal on its own in x86 real mode if the compiler didn't do null pointer checks. However it would set the divide-by-zero IRQ handler to itself 0000:0000, and when the next division by zero happened,

If you're not building a PaaS while running stuff, you should either rent or build a platform because having a reusable platform enables scalability and manageability. And if you have 750+ employees, you better have an (endpoint) clien

The Target here in ATX next to downtown hired 2 ex-PMC's in full plate carriers. (APD's call backlog for nonviolent reports runs 36- to 48-hours, so it might as well be never. A private person must then either be equipped to defen

95% correct. "Planting a lot of trees" has been proven dead wrong because of simple math, plant matter decay, and increasing fucking forest fires. Instead, #teamtrees couldn't face reality while doing the disservice of misinf

In this time period, there are many people who are eager to cause mass suffering, murder, sabotage, and dissolution of civilization. With advances in technological organization, there is an increasing potential for coordinated autonomous at

The median population center of America is around Indiana, so the average delivery charge will be ~3k. The total delivered cost with tax will be about 30k. Also, there is a threat of municipalities, including states, suing the manufacturer

My '85 VW Westfalia poptop camper is still cheaper than that by acquisition price. (Not so cheap after solar, remodeling, restoration, and engine swap.)

That's immediately what I thought. Plus, there is no absolutely no way this will withstand a 70 mph windstorm while you can fold a travel trailer down in a reasonable amount of time. It's not a secure, real, permanent shelter that

These aren't ideal as they look fairly permanent. I don't see the labor or a time-lapse video of assembly or takedown.

Risking sounding like Mr. Wonderful: I can't tell if it's aspirational, pre-product marketing or a parody. If it wasn't a joke, then they've just reinvented the travel trailer without the convenience or the trailer. My c

Although not homeless per se, I lived in a 80's VW Westfalia along the curbs of Silicon Valley for 9 years without A/C. It had a solar panel and I didn't have to buy anything except to keep fragile West German engineering goi

Getting to it and making a living between it and elsewhere is the problem. (Most American's aren't office workers.) Also, much of the land isn't exactly ideal due to hazards.[0] Furthermore, being 10+ miles from a serious hos

Ah, the days of cubicles. Trimble Nav in Sunnyvale had medium-height, solid fabric-backed 6x8' and 8x8' cubicles in 2000. And it was nice to be tucked in a quiet corner of the building by the foosball table room before there was s

The problem with that statement is variance in taste, education, and ambiguity in the real world. Stephen King is making the classic mistake of an introvert projecting a blanket statement based on the mistaken pretense of a uniform vocabula

The fallacy is that they are "necessary" when they are entirely elective and a conscious or unconscious choice. There's always a choice that doesn't involve a Hobson's choice.

While bad, Houston is even worse. Large parts of it are littered petrochemical plant "bombs" that explode from time-to-time.

Comes off as snakeoil, just as ESWL and LiSWT are overhyped and largely ineffective. Their sample size was only 44. False hope in oncology is lethal.

It's surprising most rotor mast designs don't include a nested secondary nut and don't use lockwire. In Japan, motorcycle racing requires lockwire on almost everything. It's a shame helicopter safety engineering generall

Backwards rationalization / cognitive dissonance for a poor engineering tradeoff. The cost of zillions of the same panel mount connector will converge to dirt cheap. Although cents matter, user experience matters more if everyone hates

Ouch. Forget that. I had on-site repair with parts for 3 years. Had one repair during COVID due to a blown charging circuit. They had it for a month and replaced it. Out of warranty, I stocked up on parts from AliExpress. Need a spare CPU f
