Stack Overflow's annual developer survey the most used operating system was Windows with 45.8% of respondents, and MacOS and Linux split the rest pretty evenly.…
They still haven't fixed it. My partner works for the federal government. She was bumped up to a new pay scale and suddenly stopped being paid for 2 months. When she did start getting paid it was at the old level and…
Was the repeal a result of it not working, or a result of a more billionaire-friendly party returning to power?
It has nothing to do with whether or not the job is hard. I've worked retail, food service, and landscaping jobs through high school and university. I know those jobs aren't easy. The difference is that those jobs…

No.
Smaller dogs don't need as long usually. They have shorter legs so it's more of a workout for them to walk around the block than it is for larger dogs. Just think about how many times their little legs have to step to…
According to the article they reimbursed the owner $2000, two months after $4500 worth of equipment was stolen. Still not confidence inspiring.
The third google link is to an article on PetaPixel [0] with just as much detail as this and a very similar headline "How I Lent My $4,500 Camera Kit for $95 and Had It Stolen", from October 2018. The author here…
Domestic cats are an invasive species. They're not a natural part of the food chain, they're not doing any good by killing or even eating what they kill, they just do it for fun. They basically have no predators because…
I've never understood why cats are allowed to roam the world unsupervised to kill birds and poop in my tomato garden.
Reading about the Oostvaardersplassen is interesting, it seems to have a lot of major problems, mostly related to being too small. I'm not sure that introducing wolves is a good idea, don't they typically need more…
The article is a commentary on the vilification of wolves, not whether or not they're literally prey animals.
The lawyer was surprised that someone actually read the contract, not that the contract contained a satisfaction clause. The lawyer was probably already aware that the clause was there, and it's a standard contract that…
> Renewable energy is not really a proven concept yet. What do you mean by this?
That seems like a separate issue to me, the general consumerism around wanting a new car/phone/widget every year or two. For the time being though, I don't think that's necessarily a problem with electric cars. Sure,…
Really - you can't think of any solutions for heating and cooling houses without burning fossil fuels? Electric baseboard heaters have been a thing forever, just power those with solar or wind or nuclear and we're done.…
You're confusing the concept of a social construct with "things invented by humans".
Any building can be insulated, you just have to spend the money and sacrifice some internal space. Frame the inside of the walls and put in insulation.
Neat video, really drives home how essential super chargers are to the usefulness of electric vehicles. Sitting for 12 hours in a trailer park to get another 200 miles of range is insane. Also, this guy has some serious…
Might be a little bit of self selection bias going on here.
Pretty easy to understand if you swap what the software is detecting to "asteroids which are on impact course with earth". Basic functionality is to detect asteroids which are on a collision course with earth. The fact…

"Student volunteer" probably refers to undergrad students who are working on their theses.
