The most poignant and human part of his retelling, was the stranger's smile while he was waiting in the car. That is what made him start moving away from the darkness. It's such a seemingly banal action, but so fundamentally human

Is it really TCP though? Was each packet ACKnowledged? Would it be more UDP if any were dropped? Might also be a touch of SMTP, or maybe NSSMTP (No So SMTP)!

Of course not. "Friday" isn't universal. Clearly, `-f` is the "Finally" flag

Fortunately, I still get to see a banner advertising their streaming music service, or to watch the World Series through Youtube. Nice to see their ad-service platform isn't impacted. /s

Sounds a lot like the work done by William Ury, whose works can be found online (TED talks, Yoytube copies of some talks, his book "Getting to Yes"). That is, listening, and HEARING what the other person is saying, not "primi

It is, particularly since there is a) a premium price on the rental (3-5x last I checked) for that one day b) rental windows are shrunk (3-4 hours max is typical) and c) rentals are reserved back-to-back-to-back, such as 6-10,10-2,2-6,6-10,

I've often wondered, especially as I cringe, clench and brace as I encounter another pothole (or chasm) why this is still an issue? Particularly since there are very well known and enduring roadways capable of handling much heavier loa

While shopping the toy section at Target a few weeks ago, in the science/educational section, I came across a few variations of a "//code programming game series"[0] by Thinkfun[1]. The titles I saw were "Robot

All three manufactured/retail products listed also contain a non-insignificant amount of potassium, particularly the Pedialyte, to which the homemade solution matches best. Is the value added by potassium minimal enough to not include

There was a great "external observer" type account in a BBC article [0] a short while back. Granted it wasn't fully impartial, given the author is the mother and addict her daughter, but I believe the account to be rather tel

There were two major standout points to me in the article. The first was that the main engines (SSMEs) were replaced so that the originals could be used for the next generation system. The other thing that's piqued my curiosity is that

Great advice on your point to not beat yourself up at slip ups. I was also advised to learn to forgive myself (it's seriously much more difficult than it sounds). Also, major kudos on being clean for five years. While I can't rela

Article seems to state they got a vehicle wrap for it. Probably not part of the 4000$ rental, but can't imagine it being more than maybe 1000$ to "print"? Random large-ish dollar amount I came up with on the fly.

Oh really? I thought those were just little balls of lint and fabric. Now I feel like a jerk.

I've also seen similar (LCD based shelf tags) at Whole Foods in Plano, TX, for the better part of the last decade.

Feedly. From all the trials and searches I've done as a former Google Reader devotee, it's the closest to it from interaction perspective, but much MUCH better with integrations, including sending an article to Instapaper.

Agreed. I've tried nearly a dozen readers (online) during the frenzied Google Reader shutdown frenzy. Felt like the smoothest transition, fullest feature set and fairly straightforward. To the point that I've been a paid subscribe

For me, the difference between keyboard shortcuts, and command line interface for that matter is that the same operation can be done semi-autonomously with the emphasis being on the variation (filename, path, flags, etc.) for the task at ha

I'll second the Shortcat recommendation. Got a license pretty much as soon as I installed and used it (after the trial period, because I can be stingy). Between it and Alfred, I can do most everything I need from the keyboard. For me,

And then more ships built quicker to lesser safety standards (we don't need no stinkin' regulations) which will in turn busy tbe shipyards even more, until we end up with a maritime version of the "Spruce Goose"! Or mayb

I am curious how the compensation of the engineers compares to that of the traders, whose job function their systems have replaced. Not only base salary, but bonuses, commissions, and all those extras. Do the engineers get comparable extras

Very nice and handy reference! Will give me something to compare against and my Pixel and Amazon headset. Apparently, vol up on the headset triggers the assistant, while all other buttons work as expected. Oddly, the same headset worked fla

I have already experienced this in several sites, which I didn't make note of. Comically enough, since they detect that I'm on a Mac (correct), they determine that showing a Safari-esque fake notification would be good enough? Usi
