I don't know where you live, if you even live in the US, but that is a travesty that you weren't able to access quick testing. In the Bay Area, I get free testing through Project Baseline. My family has alternated getting tested o

PG&E charges much more than 20c. Depending on the tier, it could be over $0.30/kWh. If you have time of day charges, it's even higher during the day, something ridiculously high.

Sometimes, the "science" is wrong. Everything from low-fat diets, to high sodium diets, to DDT, to MSG. Many of the things that we have literally been indoctrinated with have been fully wrong. Most recently, when the government, m

If these ridiculous interviews don't produce top notch performance reviews after a year on the job, then the interviews are worthless. If I were to ever try a startup (I won't), my philosophy would be to hire easily and fire easil

Yap. It doesn't make sense to destroy the language just to get in a particular feature. You don't need a language to do everything. It needs to be good at everything it's meant to be good at.

Anything that breaks and changes semantics should not be allowed into the language. Let Python be Python, not a Frankenstein's monster of ideas like C++. If it were an idea that were Pythonic, you would not see the confusing examples I

Just another example of how a virtual monopoly can get away with terrible, shameful and nonexistent customer support because they can. It's monopolistic behavior, but an passive form of it. Instead of actively engaging in monopolistic

We need regulations to enforce adequate customer service and SLAs in these huge companies. Google is getting away with this behavior because of their monopolistic behavior. If they had competition, they would be spending billions on custome

If that's the only route in, then no. Because most of that is expelled gasses due to heat, there's no way that oxygen could go in if the gasses and smoke were being driven out by the fire.

What exactly is burning at this point? I would suspect there is little oxygen left down there. Is it some other form of chemical reaction? They can't just dump boatloads of water to douse the flames? There appears to be enough water fo

I pray that you succeed against this battle. I know several people who have successfully battled cancer, one who is doing it at UCSF right now and UCSF is a great hospital for that. You're young and look healthy, I am looking forward t

I fully support using the proper resources to tackle these non-violent problems instead of sending cops which could very easily turn into someone dead. What I do not support is completely decriminalization or disincarceration like the curre

"There is no war in Ba Sing Se." It's pretty easy for RH to just dismiss this without doing any research but it's also pretty easy to figure out. Have RH sit down with people who say they were affected, and go through th

Ligand Pharmaceuticals appears to be ripe for a GME-style short squeeze.

So it really is liquidity issues then. Anyone who keeps their trading at RH is seriously jeopardizing their money.

If you read this drivel, and don't close your Robin Hood account today, then you're part of the problem. I closed mine and I hope everyone else does too. I read a comment on reddit recently that is pertinent. The prey in Africa, i

It's not just Ranitidine. It's all blood pressure medications like Valsartan, losartan and irbesartan, and metformin the diabetes drug. These are just the ones that have been tracked. Sometimes the drugs come in with higher doses

Do you check for impurities in the drugs? One of the biggest issues these days is impurities of carcinogenic chemicals in many of the generic drugs.

Pointing to someone's bad code example and saying "This is why all OO is pointless", is truly a lazy effort. Good OOP is good. Bad OOP is bad. That's like every other piece of coding. Some excellent examples of great OO

As someone who grew up in the 80s with the fullblown AIDS crisis, this really is a testament to human ingenuity. When we were kids, this sounded like the end of the world: a virus that attacks the immune system itself. It was so terrifying

Once companies become monopolies like Google, Facebook etc, I believe the government should impose regulations like mandatory SLAs for customer support. Right now, companies like Google can completely ignore customer service because they ar

The only time people care is when they care. And you can't predict when that will happen. It's like a flock of birds flying in the air, you can't figure out which individual bird caused the first change in direction, but it q

Time travel violates the law of conservation of energy. By travelling back in time, you yourself are injecting more mass/energy into a system. So it's great as a science fiction trope, but if you're going to talk physics, tha

That's their right to spew whatever they want. Just because it's worthless doesn't mean we should stop it. I personally think every single conversation in Twitter is absolutely worthless, maybe even has negative value. Does t

Maybe no one system is best, but the US system is definitely the worst. So many things about our lives are dictated by precedents set by ridiculous law suits, we don't see it anymore. I went on a bicycle tour in Italy, and the owner wa
