Yeah... I don't see anyway for the study that 'more white' (or whatever the card color was) wasn't what the bees learned. Particularly since this is the actual correlation. "Howard trained one group of bees to under

What do you do with the air measurements? Are there things you can do to improve air quality?

My kid was into Daniel Tiger and our first attempts at getting into Mr. Rogers didn't really get anywhere. Now that he's 5, he's all about it (although Nature shows are starting to be the usual pick). That being said, we&#x27

If so any JVM based datastore could probably benefit. I wonder how long before we see a similar result from ElasticSearch. (Only other huge JVM based store I can think of).

Fascinating. I'm regularly coaching individuals to avoid absolutist words more as a means so they don't stir the pot with team members. This study points out a correlation that makes me rethink how I approach that advice. It seems

Thank you for the links, these were just vague concepts to me before where I understood the intent, but I shall read up on the specifics now. In planned events and traditional health care your argument makes sense. I was specifically thinki

A further complication in my mind of healthcare operating as a market is a hippocratic oath. The ability for a doctor (merchant) to refuse service in certain situations just doesn't exist without violating an ethical boundary.

Very true. The risk applies at almost every stage.

Regarding the sidenote, I can visualize an engineer making that mistake way more than a UX person. "I need something to enter dates, oh here's a calendar widget library. done." The reason for product to own UX more is they s

Features bring in revenue, bugs represent risk to lose that revenue. If you're over-leveraged (as in debt) then you eventually hit an inflection point. However what I haven't seen is a good study of what that inflection point look

Just had a brief discussion at work about bagels that started with a complaint about how they're never sliced all the way through. After a couple minutes of back and forth an epiphany was realized that if they were pre-cut all the way

I was skeptical of this graveyard because it gets referenced a lot, largely due to how we humans constantly ignore the sunk-cost fallacy all the time. BUT it turns out the FDA is what prevents that from happening, and yes less drugs are get

Just triggered the thought that we should be trying to exploit the property of light to pursue the shortest path as a means to calculate hard problems. No idea how this would actually work... but I would gander someone already thought of th

I don't understand this view of the world. I'd like to ask some questions to better understand. Not debate, understand. I spent a lot of time picking apart the various parts. I largely see immigration issues as capitalist vs. soci

This is a common complaint in Texas as well. Dallas and Austin growth has been crazy and California companies keep relocating. Great for those of us already with houses, terrible for those who don't and don't want to live in remot

This is on point, GCP is modeled after Google's infrastructure not how Google itself is run. Whereas Amazon runs on the same technology just not in the same datacenter. (My impression is that Amazon operates out of a different region t

Thanks for the suggestion. After poking around a bit I realized I probably need to factor in weight as well. Good news for me since lighter is cheaper.

Quick search on Amazon seems to reveal some results. I am the target market for this. I recently rented a cabin that had a standard telescope and although I knew exactly where Jupiter was it still took me 20-30 minutes to line it up just ri

That would be the trick in delegation. Giving others the authority to get things done. I don't know the specifics of what your dealing with but it might be defining a common starting place like an API contract with some architectural&#

I've been on the wrong-side of this unfortunately. Rather than implementing a sane archive delete strategy, data was left there to collect so there was pretty much no hope for a particular join not to generate page miss. Eventually we

I've always viewed 24 hour news channels in the same vein. Twitter just puts a layer of social validation on top of it. Social media is driving traditional channels to be worse so that those channels can be more relevant on social medi

What I think your actually complaining about is High Deductible Health Plans and HSAs which came into law in 2003. It's just taken time for them proliferate. The reason they are becoming popular is that they are intended to incentivize
