Its certainly quaint and lucky to be able to solve problems that easily I suppose. I have 4 people in my immediate social orbit. Two of them have serious behavioral disorders - one has been in inpatient psychiatry (twice), the other has ne

FWIW Teeters was apparently one of the more dovish from that era and didn't think the high rates were a great idea: “You are pulling the financial fabric of this country so tight that it’s going to rip...once you tear a piece of fabri

I don't think speed dating is going to replace apps. I did some dating pre-app, it wasn't big then. Its unnatural, and doesn't appeal to many personalities. I'm one of the men apps don't work for, easy to see why

FWIW, Hinge has been owned by match for some years now. Bumble is still independent by their stock is down ~92% over 5 years. I think they will eventually be bought out by match.

In the US, I highly doubt any insurance would pay for a prostate MRI in a 51 year old with a PSA of 1.1, negative finding on DRE and no family history of the disease.

I hope if there is a regulatory backlash it results in loot crates in games getting regulated, ideally outlawed. Apologists for that practice claimed there was no harm in it, but now we see the harm - a generation of young men trained on th

Doesn't work for every case, but I think for a lot of cases nowadays, if you are using an interpreter and its slow, you should just generate web assembly. Libraries like walrus for rust make this pretty easy to do, and wasmtime provid

The MD shortage is entirely artificial - limited by the number of taxpayer-funded residency slots, itself a result of federal congressional action (or inaction). You may ask, why is the taxpayer on the hook for resident training, when ther

ACA plans are going up even more on average than employer based plans, at the same time subsidies are being reduced. The ACA exchanges are possibly doomed long term. People on that skew mid to lower income (but higher than medicaid), and m

$396 (if un-subsidized) probably means you are on a bronze tier plan. And yes many of those are hot garbage. However, if you are paying that for a crap plan and getting a subsidy too, you're probably getting ripped off. Most people

I made one using fltk for rust, but I only use it for my diary. They have an editor sample to get you started. I think its not a bad choice if you like rust. Like a true nerd, I also integrated my own homebrew scripting language.
