Yup. Affordability in area is always hard because the companies pay the minimum to get someone to walk through the door. When you're new, you're competing for work with people who already have housing and are looking for a new job

Yup. I concur. This is what I'm hearing from friends. Nasty time.

In the winter time, I get free heat from my server. In the summer, I have to pay to run an AC to get it out of the envelope.

The taxes up there are outrageous. I'm a super woke person, but even I can't agree with some of the ways that they're just handing out money like it's candy. The taxes are driving out the people who work. Are the program

I've often wondered if human hair is some how a slightly different organism. But I guess it has the same DNA as the spit from our mouth so I guess not.

And I believe that there was a clever legal game played.At first, the band tried to get MS to use a live version because it would cut some band members out of the royalties. You can read more in Brad Chase's memoirs. https://

When I look at the list of things they did, they seem to be largely research of the open literature. Am I missing something?

If they're drunk, can they reasonably assess the quality of the code? Can they do a legit code audit while drunk? Seriously, can they even decide anything?

Works fine when I log on. At the beginning of the Musk era, everyone said the technology would fail. That hasn't been my experience. Plenty of tweets appear when I go to the site. Now you might argue that the social networks are failin

They won capitalism? The government regulations are entirely responsible for the lack of competition. As it stands, competition found away around the wired line regulations. The wireless devices came along. And soon the satellite networks w

Any idea of how much the tax might be in Japan? And how does it affect taxes in the US?

But is it bad for there to be a cache of data for research? I don't even care if they make a great profit because if there's a great profit to be had it means that some drug came out of the research. While I'm generally cynic

The article seems to suggest that this is bad and "heartbreaking", but at least it does admit that the animals are doing it by choice. Maybe they like the colorful detritus and they gain status by wearing it? After all, humans use

I think what many people miss about the Europeanization of North America is how often the Euros formed alliances with different tribes. Some tribes formed a bond with the French, some with the Spanish, English, Portugeuse and probably a few

In many cases, the geometry of antennae matter. I would worry that a flexible antenna like this might be bent or stretched enough to degrade performance. Am I right?

Mostly plant-based? This is kind of wishful thinking. Okinawa, for instance, eats plenty of fish. The Greeks and the Italians eat plenty of fish, meat and cheese. The poorest countries have the greatest percentage of plant-based food and, n

I wouldn't even be so sure that it qualifies as real academic plagiarism. Some of the recent newsworthy examples from Harvard, for instance, were close to full paragraphs. This example, for instance, is just a phrase and a cliche at th

Do you think so? There are already several sad examples of political leaders who insisted on people of their favorite race or sex. The bridges collapsed. The problem with the system is that the political leaders are spending other peoples m

If demand drops for your chosen neighborhood, it probably has nothing to do with people hoping for lower rents. It usually means people don't want to live in a place because it's less attractive. And that means it's not as ni

A wonderful series written by a real life engineer. I read them as a kid and read them to my children. (As did several of my friends.) Some of the details are a bit dated. The stories are meant to be contemporary, but Bertrand Brinley wrote

When I was younger, I heard lots of stories about how Margaret Mead was the best anthropologist. Then, later I started hearing about how some rivals were digging up how she just made up half of the stories because she wanted to believe some
