The alternative is 24/7 care in a long-term care facility with multiple RCWs per floor and a couple of RNs. There are definitely enough Human Resources available to support this initiative.

Is this because they know some whales that want the +1 model are going to jump at the opportunity to buy whatever is on the market, and then buy again when higher-range models are released?

The next UI direction for iOS should be coloured or textured glass (with bubbles or glass block refraction) with dark mode options that mimic uranium- or cerium-doped glass.

I don’t get why backward compatibility is even expected, other than a nice-to-have. Historically, gamepads weren’t portable between generations of systems. I’ve got a Logitech steering wheel that I can’t use on 64-bit Windows because of the

The cooking-by-force does seem unintuitive, but kitchen gadgets like cooking blenders for soups do exactly this by pushing blades through high-viscosity mixtures in order to achieve the desired effect.

Serves this city right for putting all its eggs into one basket. Where are the alternate forms transport: the bike paths and bike shares, LRTs/buses, and yes, roads? What about other upstream policy levers such as WFH mandates, and a d

My university had bound catalogues of “letterpress blocks” you could order for letterpresses. These were from about 50-100 years ago, and were great for scanning in and converting to vector art as various design elements. Usually these were

The article phrased the situation as generations of ants feeding on each other over many years. At some point, the energy value of the food drops because it’s consumed.

VW (and others) was using QNX as the base for its infotainment UI. Snappy and responsive. Got the job done.

Jim Lehrer was more recent and an excellent voice on a national scale in North America. Ontario has Steve Paikin who, until very recently, hosted a current affairs show on public television. He is easily in the top 0.0001% of people who can

Everyone wanted to be gritty in the 2010s and now no one is gritty because of it. I want the opposite now, and have a source with a coherent, reliable voice which I sort of get with the Economist.

The first thing that jumps out at me is the concept of perseveration (repeated fixed obsessions) that happens in dementia syndromes. It would be interesting to consider whether this is a chicken-or-egg scenario, whether individuals tended t

My HAM radio instructor (VE3XT) was a transmitter engineer who lamented the resurgence of tube amps in the 2000s. He said that what young people call “warmth” in sound is distortion that his kinfolk worked tirelessly to eliminate. I didn’t
