Where I am, it's light out from 7 a.m. to 4 p.m. during the shortest days of the winter. The thing is a lot of people aren't even awake at 7 a.m. and if they are (I am), they're doing indoor things like making breakfast/

FYI, I've taken 10mg Xanax during a trip that wasn't going well and it did literally nothing. Normally, 0.5mg would put me to sleep. Seroquel (Quetiapine), on the other hand, does work if you want an escape hatch and don't mi

I was curious so I looked it up and found: https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/factcheck/2021/07/14/fac... The examples they give in the article are Ebola in 2016, West Nile Virus in 1999, and

We haven't had the technology to create novel viruses for very long so you statement is meaningless.

I just read a couple Kiwi Farms threads and damn that place is depressing. Just an entire forum filled with cruel, shitty people.

No, it's an attitude of haughty dismissal, which the media has a real problem with too.

It's almost like the media is taking cues from the Biden administration.

If that's the only evidence you've seen so far, you're not looking very hard.

It's actually this exact attitude that kept it out of the media. I'm curious: what is your goal? Everyone can see the glaringly obvious circumstantial evidence that it was a lab leak. At this point, comments like your's just

Maybe it's just me, but I can't think of anything more depressing than doing the exact same thing my entire career. I think the need to stay current is an advantage of the tech industry.

Because there's an obvious implication that Trump is pushing the drug because he has a financial interest in pushing the drug. But if his financial interest is so small that he stood to gain hundreds of dollars, maybe thousands at most

I don't know if the subject matter is just coloring my perception, but this is the first time I've ever felt that a web page design was pretentious.

I encourage everyone to never, ever fly a 737 MAX under any circumstances. Boeing has not been sufficiently punished (as in their future behavior will change). If people refuse to fly the 737 MAX, hopefully they go bankrupt and the existing

This is one of the scammiest companies to ipo in a while. They're dumping shitty stock on the public and doordash will never, ever make a profit. The way they handle tips should be illegal.

Well, there was will to change that and a bipartisan piece of legislation did -- McCain Feingold. What happened is that the undemocratic supreme court struck down with bullshit justification.

So, instead of ugly commercial monstrosities we're going to get rows of tiny, dark apartments in a weird building that doesn't really use space efficiently. And this is a best case conversion: historic building in an urban area. I

I feel like Sweden's approach is a red herring. Everything I've read suggests that life in Sweden right now is very similar to other countries with more restrictive lockdowns. Like restaurants/shops haven't been forced t

Not surprised. Amazon has been completely useless since the pandemic hit the US. Everything I want is out of stock or shipping in weeks. I guess some people must be getting orders though.

You can't ethically test a vaccine once a disease has disappeared so I'm not sure what you'd expect them to do in the SARS case.

My personal experience is that all subscription management platforms fall over when you're doing enterprise SaaS. At a certain level (because literally your most valuable customers insist), you have to deal with credit cards, ACH, wire

I agree. An even bigger problem is that most of the benchmark suite is completely irrelevant to what these CPU's are going to be used for. These are meant for servers. They should keep that in mind when selecting what benchmarks and wh

I think the only thing that can actually fix Boeing is bankruptcy, so I hope that people refuse to fly on the Max even after recertification and it ends up being too big of a financial blow to recover from.
