I re-did my homepage recently with this thought in mind. My previous one was the usual big hero section at the top, second section with three highlight cards, etc, etc. My goal is to show my personality and not use a CSS framework. Partiall

Is this something limited to art? What markets commonly have 7.5 times growth in 3 years? Also, it seems that getting an appraisal at a value that nobody would pay seems off to me. What is the appraiser basing the valuation off of if not ot

>What else would a flight of fancy be other than imagining something that we currently have absolutely zero evidence for? Exactly, but that was spirit of OP's question. I do think that the fact that we can rewind our own history and

My comment was was rhetorical. The purpose was to point out that the OP was asking for research to back up a claim but not offering anything but their anecdotal experience for the contrary view.

I never really thought that Amazon was the cheapest. The draw for me was always the free shipping and convenience. I actually don't remember Amazon ever marketing their service as having the cheapest price but I could be mistaken?

Do you know research to backup what you believe?

That makes a lot of sense. Thanks.

I was saying this from my perspective. I was comparing what I saw on GC to my past experience with AWS. I have some experience using AWS in the past and it has always been super confusing to me. The other day was my first experience looking

I'm in Atlanta and have had a few discussions with people at Chik-fil-A (CFA) about joining on of their teams. I have a good friend that just moved from Intel to CFA working on business analytics. It seems like a really great place to

Could you keep some running score of the entire carbon footprint of the current chunk? Then if the player moved into a new chunk, you would use the old chunk's last score as having some effect on the current chunk? I guess that wouldn&

I've been out of the theoretical physics game a little while, what are the leading "untestable" quantum-gravity theories out there today?

No and I'm having a hard time articulating what I mean. First, I am no longer in academia. :) I left because it felt a lot like an extension of government. I am not a fan of how the funding operates at all. I was trying to say that I b

Probably you were down-voted because of you starting with "What you are saying is wrong." People probably didn't like your tone and the original comment was only somewhat inaccurate. There still are more features in f.lux tha

I fail to see how your comment supports the claims in the article. If what you say is true than the results would be that in general female doctors are better but this data shows that they are only better with other female patients.

by wuliwong 8y ago
That is not the most obvious explanation from my perspective. A more "obvious" perspective to me is that female doctors are better at treating female patients because they possess a better understanding of them. I believe that a b

This made me smile. I'm actually somewhat skilled as an artist (just compared to the average person) but I can assure you I have never drawn a respectable image of a bicycle. I really liked taking these sketches and making them more re

I think just a single line somewhere easy to see that tells the user that they edit in the console and can see the changes in your toolbar would suffice.

I think these giant corporations are effectively quasi-government organizations. Just like the large banks have spent large amounts of money lobbying and have populated influential positions in the treasury for years. These corporations lik

If I was opposed to the Sicilian mafia, that doesn't make me racist against all Sicilians. I don't understand how this is different.

In Atlanta At&T, Google and Comcast all offer fiber. I don't believe we have Verizon here. Also, just because one company offers a faster connection than another does not make it a monopoly. Whatever company that sells the fastest

I feel really stupid but I don't know how to use it. I clicked the button to open the toolbar in the footer but after that, I don't see where I am supposed to actually input my CSS edits.

This looks really cool. I've occasionally dabbled with messing with CSS on sites before. I installed it, I'll give it a whirl when I get a chance.
