In Japan, houses and apartments usually have at most one transparent window. The rest are heavily frosted. It took a while to adjust to that model but once I did I wished we did this more in the US. You get more light during the day, s

Not a personal attack. These posters are smarter than I am, just ribbing them about misusing the terminology. "Maxima" is plural, "maximum" is singular. So you would say "a local maximum," or "several lo

Not a single one of you bigbrains used the word "maxima" correctly and it's driving me crazy.

I used to use plumbum for Pythonic(ish) shell scripting. It was great for a specific use case.

Found this comment while trying to figure out if this is a joke. What an amazing sport.

Came here to see if anyone else had a problem with that timeline.

Huh. I wish I had encountered this way of thinking sooner.

Is this this the Mitchell translation?

This is the truth. A Fuji apple in Japan is life-changing. A Fuji apple in Minnesota is flavorless and either hard as a rock or mushy and granular. It’s all about the source.

That was not anticlimactic.

Interesting. Do you have a source for that? I had hypothesized that the antibiotics were either giving my immune system a boost which was tamping down some underlying inflammation somewhere, or were helping fight some intestinal flora that

Almost nothing stated here is accurate…

If they put you on probiotics at the same time, it might have been that. Took me weeks to figure out that it wasn’t the meds making me sick, it was the probiotics they recommended to keep the meds from damaging my gut. I just didn’t toler

Can you elaborate on affect changes? I had a similar regimen and experienced a weird sense of mental clarity and sociability for a couple of weeks after. Never have figured out what the mechanism was.

I can back up the magnesium theory. Started pounding the stuff (100% chelated) a few years ago after reading about how many processes it's involved in and how little of it we actually get in our diets, and it was a game-changer. B12

Since you're willing to try some out-there stuff, here are the two things that turned my life around: a shamanic healing ceremony (literally saved my life) and EFT/tapping (allowed me to work through what was left). I was in the s

In the US this is precisely the traditional approach. The country was built by immigrants who would arrive in an area -- San Francisco or New York for example -- decide that if they didn't want to work in a sweat shop they would have

Came here to say a variation of this. Dark mode is "cool" right now because it's still a relatively new thing. In five years when everything is dark mode by default this same poll would yield a totally different, maybe even

96% true positive, 0% false positive. Agreed that this seems like a measurement of something other than vocabulary.
