I agree but have found that I'm better at copyediting my own copy the further I am from it. If I wrote something in the last week I might as well be a spellchecker. If I wrote something last month I will catch more things but not as

I was a fan of that until I experienced that they don't actually test the code. I've had it break in entertaining ways, most recently getting a new monitor from Dell and trying to enter a phone number (on Firefox on Android, both

I wasn't aware of Answers.com; that's a great counter-example! I knew of a few of the others before this comment and I've viewed them as providing some amount of service or support for the price paid so yes they are selling

Thank you for the reply - I last looked into it for someone before the UCLA article came out and their doctor wasn't convinced by the French study but also wasn't completely against it. The person opted to not get the vaccine at

Have you intentionally exposed yourself to your previous triggers (assuming you had them)? How long has it been since you had the zoster vaccine? Were you of an on-label age for the zoster vaccine at receipt or was it off-label usage? Put

I've always thought that a bit unlikely - if someone is going through the trouble to resell they take on business costs, probably some support or maintenance costs, and a desire to profit (otherwise they'd just post the GPL'e

That's actually one of the general issues with heatpumps - because they aren't literally lighting something on fire (or using resistive heating which just lights money on fire) they have smaller temperature deltas when designed pr

Teams has an option for PSTN conferencing so if that's the only reason holding on to WebEx, it might be cheaper to add the PSTN option to Teams and ditch WebEx. Pricing: https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoft-36

1. I don't think you can quantify the two in equal units such that they can be compared - they both played a part. 2. Probably not or at least not significantly. Ducting occurs frequently and Saharan dust is blown out to sea every yea
