This is a hollow appeal to authority (the FDA is infallible) mixed with an appeal to emotion (fear of death) with no attempt to provide concrete information or to present thinking towards a conclusion.

Is the seal important if the vial is going to be fully used up ~now? Presumably the needle has to be clean regardless of whether the seal exists at all (e.g., it could be dirty inside the bore and the seal state would be irrelevant), so the

It's really hard to grok why 15-vs-10 doses in a bottle should be a problem. Sure you've got the out-of-fridge time, but that hardly seems like an issue when the population is itching to get vaccinated.

Buried capacitance is typically just a thin layer for improved sheet capacitance and used primarily for supply decoupling. As such, it's not really a relevant circuit element for reverse engineering. I've yet to see a consumer boa

This channel is the only one where I find real utility in Newpipe's ability to go faster than that.

I watched that movie and wished that I could have been the beneficiary of such editing. Once it's possible it seems obvious to want to do it. What's the problem?

On the bright side, gigabit Ethernet is pretty low-spec these days and not hard to get right-enough. Curious to know what you're up to!

Progress indication and scrollability indication. I'd actually like to see scrollbars enhanced rather than diminished. So for example I would love to see indicators of headings or breaks or page bookmarks. The latter could even be clic

Real shame if this domain got blocked because of a contraband file, eh? Just pay us and we'll make sure you don't have any problems.

That would be great. My older BMW doesn't let me do that despite having physical buttons for almost everything. I got stranded once because of this. Manual said to call roadside assistance, which is real helpful when I don't have

I had to copy all the text out into a text editor to be able to read the article, not just the links. Contrast is out of vogue I guess.

Why does one mean it isn't the other? Clearly it's both. It's just not government censorship, for which there's a bit of text in the US bill of rights.

Good luck convincing many people in the US of the same. I'm certainly not convinced. As you point out, Singapore has already abused the system. If some abuse is technically possible, it's probably already happening. But there&#x27

Things like the "where do I get masks" map don't seem antithetical to personal privacy the way a contact tracing tool is. That's pretty low-hanging fruit that we didn't appear to make any attempt to pick.

Piling on to the thank-you wagon. My cousin works at the GAO and often has interesting stories about policy nuance that would be really difficult to realize without that inside perspective.

It's important to list what bugs you fixed. You can do fancy things like group your changelogs under headings if you want to make it easier to maintain focus for different audiences. A CAD tool I use, for example, lists every single bu

I don't know where the fear comes from. They seem like amazeballs ROI and like everyone should be champing at the bit to get them.

I'm not sure what GP had in mind either. But if I were trying to build on that statement, I'd say that a single party political landscape hasn't been good. Having at least three or four healthy competitive parties and a need

There's tons of places with effectively unlimited money. But very few places that have nearly unlimited resources. Some key resources are usually inversely correlated with money: decision-making latency and throughput, clear focus, and

> Hydrogen really doesn't like to be stored though. It also ruins any storage vessel it is kept in long term. It's true that it's the smallest atom, but it's not the smallest molecule. Helium is more prone to escapeme

It looks like you can blend something in the neighborhood of 10-15% hydrogen into the existing natural gas infrastructure without negative consequence. That's not game changing, but it's a significant environmental improvement if

I think we're going to see a diversification in energy storage and power delivery systems for different applications. There's lots of uses for hydrogen beyond running your passenger car. It's a feedstock into a lot of chemist

We still need up-front transparency on what codes will be billed to whom, from whom, and for how much. I want a comprehensible restaurant-like menu. And we need to break up regional monopolies so that there's actually a choice of provi

Does anyone know the mechanism by which they can possibly make the out of state tax stick? If it doesn't, I'd probably move to the Midwest. If it does, there are other citizenships.

Would it even be a problem if they did? Like presumably people are generally free to do things to themselves. If they self-administered and they were allowed to consume the resource (e.g., it wasn't theft) who was harmed?

I stopped in a bike lane to take a picture of an illegally parked Uber driver. He used his vehicle to try and plow me out of the lane and cut short my window of opportunity for a photo. Reaction from police and Uber to a photo with the plat
