quality sand is incredibly abundant and cheap everywhere I lived. It wouldn't be economically feasible to export sand from Greenland.

agreed. A long term lease would be acceptable to both sides, but at this point there's no such offer as US already has a presence there, much cheaper.

AFAIK that's not enough calories burned to get you into caloric deficit. You need more intensive or longer exercise

How would you decide what to block? Wikipedia or Stack Overflow can be extremely useful but you can waste time there as easily as on Facebook, Twitter or Hacker News.

Why? It's just artificial money, what's the concrete negative impact? (I probably agree, I just think it needs to be concrete and justified)

Just Google for it from an incognito session to get the full article. I quoted the gist of the research in the other post but here goes: Because there's a limit to how much a human body can eat a day, body also regulates how many calo

"runners were expending about two and a half times their resting metabolic rate each day, a notable decline from the early days of the event, when they were burning at least three and a half times their resting rate" Not sure why

My kids went through Sphero, Mindstorms and a couple of other robots where you can program them in Scratch and similar. To me such a toy would have been a godsend. They got bored pretty quickly. Another issue is that gimbal adds to video

I'm sorry but you're just muddying the water here - Facebook's currency is centralised by both Facebook and peg to USD and there's no need for interoperability at the currency level - Facebook will provide the APIs for w

I really struggle as a potential investor in this (after IPO). The business is real and lucrative and profitable. This is already so much better than say Uber. But the equities market demands perpetual growth and I'm not seeing enoug

So what's a good alternative for burning fat that you already have? I am in a caloric deficit and do long exercises to burn fat but I'm not sure if it actually works - my weight is down a bit but it usually is in the spring anyway

App stores and various middlemen like Uber getting a cut funded a lot of tech innovations and SV fortunes, I wouldn't say low fees are absolutely best. In this case though, the fees are mostly spent on electricity and are rather large

Why can't they just carry on charging people like they used to. Greed + middle management stupidity. Someone at Facebook is proud of their smartness and will probably get a title like Senior Manager for messaging advertising. The trou

what's a good way for vim to have that when you ssh into a remote box? Would you do the rebinding in the Terminal app or something, agent forwarding or something similar? I ssh into newly provisioned boxes regularly to edit some config

Unfortunately Poland still is positioned in an area where enemy can come from any direction (and they have - Russia, Germany, Austira, Sweden etc) and it sucks geopolitically.

Basically processed food is much more dense in calories so you can easily eat more calories than you need. You'd have to eat a lot of vegetables and salad to get calories. The study is new, but the conclusion is ' hacker diet&#x2

Yeah, I think they'll struggle with adoption over the existing docker ecosystem and they should not be introducing such barriers just yet.

The title doesn't cover the nuance so please go ahead and RTFM. The argument is that Kubernetes is like Linux was some time ago - for geeks and hackers who spent the extra time and dealt with the annoyances and bugs because Linux offe
