Now facebook will access to my contact list :( It is really difficult to remove Whatsapp as it the primary communication tool for most of my network. Really sad news.

I haven't been excited about my career in a while but I am getting more and more excited about data science. I have a new desire to learn and to actually finish my masters degree. Thanks for putting these resources together.

I liked the video. I hate it when people take themselves too seriously. Good luck to the team.

I feel like I have been living in a cave. I have never heard of Penny Arcade but people are referring to them as legendary. Visiting their site feels like going back to 2006. What am I missing?

I agree. It also causes my fans to spin up which isn't very relaxing.

It makes my skin crawl when I see it. I really hope this "because noun " thing doesn't become anything more than the irritating form of humour that it started out as. It is almost as irritating as "on accident".

I think it just activates an alarm when it comes into contact with water. It's not a floatation device as far as I can see.

Does the alligator actually die in this video? I was expecting a very short shock that would scare the alligator, not the prolonged discharge shown.

I like this. Being able to do it in your own time relieves the pressure of being put on the spot and working in a foreign environment.

Of course I would mind, what does that have to do with electronic cigarettes?

I wish people would stop sneezing, coughing, stinking, wearing perfume etc in public but we can't have everything our own way when we interact with other people.

> And, take this with a grain of salt (sample size of one), but I feel way better. No more coughing in the mornings, I take hills on my bike like a pro, and I'd swear I look healthier. This is the same for me. A huge thing for me i

You really don't have to eat that much protein (maybe two grams per kg of lean body mass) just make sure that you are eating several hundred calories over your maintenance every day and you are lifting consistently, with good intensity

> For example, I need to eat 6 meals a day @ 40g protein / 40g carbs / 20g fat in each meal. The importance of meal frequency is pretty much regarded as bro-science these days.

and the problem with this is that the groups have a conflict of interest, if they do solve the problem that they are addressing then no one will continue to fund them. So the only way that they can stay in business is to make sure that the

I wouldn't say that it is irrational. It's about wanting to be in control of your own fate as much as you can be.

You are describing the processes in our universe that allow the existence of the created universe. From within that universe, the actors would have no knowledge of these processes or even the existence of our universe unless the creators ex
