I saw something similar decades ago. I believe you.

Mild climate is something to be proud of? Sure glad we all pulled together on that one and changed the climate!

Ah, mineral deficiency. This would be the same for people drinking distilled water they bought at the grocery store, so it might not be fair to pin it on desalinated water. The link title implies all of these things were associated, but the

With the attendant increase in carbon emissions to transport it though.

Both are blood-to-blood, rather than respiratory. They are not at all contagious, compared to flus and colds. A lot more deadly, but they can be stopped much more easily. Ebola spread is not stopped so much by it’s deadliness, but by the fa

Also the median age seemed pretty high for miners in a country with lots more young people than old.

There are some unintended consequences of shutting off the power preventively though. Two seasons ago someone had switched on the three generators they had installed because of these "high-winds" shutoffs, one of which caught fire

But it’s not ratting on your neighbors. They’re not your neighbors anymore when they moved away from your neighborhood and rented their place out to people from outside your neighborhood who are not going to stay long enough to be your neig

I think the take-away was: go build it yourself. Don’t spend your time talking to people, spend your time building, deploying, testing and gathering data from real users. Don’t try to get other people to implement your idea, if you really b

Or Zoom. They’re like the 8th try at this, but they crafted a product with much higher value, out of an old idea.

by spfzero 5y ago
So true. The first implementation is not necessarily the best, and good execution can be at least as important as a good idea with mediocre execution.

Totally feel for you. You bumped into a bad apple. Please know that those are rare, and don’t be discouraged from going at it again. If you did it once, you can do it again, and most likely won’t run into a parasitic community member often.

There was no “swat like behavior”. There was no unnecessary use of force. At least that’s my reading.

You can definitely spend less when your mortgage is paid off. But I'll admit that part of my reason for buying was to prevent the situation where I might be living on a fixed income some day, and having my rent go up every year. That s

That's right, then I'd just have a mirror of the original problem. I could store empty lists to represent false, but that's not really any better.

You're right, standard CAFO-raised beef requires lots of corn. Grass-fed not so much.

I may have mixed up the two, but one of Allegro or Lispworks mentioned additional licensing. Or I might have mistook the required license upgrade if you distribute, for a run-time license.

NIL equating to the empty list is fine. The empty list equating to: didn’t find what you wanted, but here’s an empty list instead? Hope you weren’t looking for an empty list though, then you’d be really confused, sorry. Nah, I’ll take “fals

The points made here about land utilization are important. The conversation around soil runoff and glyphosphate needs to take precedence. Far more damage is being done to human health by industrial wheat, corn, and soy farming, than cattle

Using it for maybe five years as my primary language for tools, simulators, testing embedded devices, games, etc. compared to common lisp, clojure, etc. it’s just less overhead for modules, packaging, compiling to executables... I would lov

What they actually don’t want to do, is chastise their funding base. With enough funding, your campaign can convince all the voters they need.

In CA, the state wants to replace nuclear power plants with natural gas. That’s many times more carbon emission than forcing some number of new homes to be built with electric ranges. As always, some sacrifice from regular people is the fir

Yes, no one at the advertising agency is going "let's make sure each person gets relevant ads." They are saying, "let's make sure we can charge more by assuring the buyer that their ad went to the demographic they a

I believe they'd say it fell under their "covid misinformation" ban. I don't know how they can say that some video of a thing that actually happened, as it was happening, could be "misinformation", but that ter

If you look at people on an axis other than liberal/conservative, you find that the people that object are the same people regardless of their politics. They're the people that can't stand the idea of other people seeing read

Architecture also has an additional risk factor in that it is somewhat market dependent. You might graduate when construction is hot and firms are hiring, or it might be a downturn and no one is hiring. It's a roll of the dice unfortun

They should at least let you know how long you'd need to work in an average, entry-level-plus job in that field, to realistically pay back the loan. That should be on the disclosure form for the loan.

Still, it hasn't passed the standard testing to show that it is safe and efficacious. That's why it is only allowed under EAU for the moment. It has not passed the testing that a vaccine needs to have, to be FDA approved. Especial
