I didn't suggest that people are good at making that effort. They arent. But the irony is that it's precisely in that difficulty that the act of verification lies. The fact that it's so difficult that it's not at all an…
From a user experience perspective it's interesting that it may be a worse experience to get a set of links and have to pick from them and use cognitive effort to discern which sources are reliable, than to simply use…
Oh man, I ate whale skin in Greenland. It was hairy and tasted like a decomposing car tire. You must have had the good kind.
Not that replace standard brushing, but I worked with a company in Denmark called Novozymes. They produce enzymes for a variety of applications including dental care. They have a set of enzymes that they license to…

Interesting, why is Nestjs used by so many online casinos? Is that random or is there some specific feature or approach used that is particularly valuable for that use case?
Is a blockchain strictly necessary for decentralization at all? If the issue with decentralization is control and governance rather than technology, why not have a cooperative model that still functions on a centralized…

I'll ignore everyone else here, but the comment on Dewey from that quote is absurd and a total mischaracterization (no doubt to discredit him because of ideological bias). Ironically, Dewey was the champion and creator…
"There isn’t good evidence that people overuse the ER" Have any of the people quoted been in an ER? Even accepting the premise that hospital prices are outrageous for ER visits, walk into any hospital and it should be…

Very interesting idea, look forward to seeing it. I try to work this way, but using different desktop spaces, but it doesn't work quite as well as I'd like. This is interesting if it can just keep one desktop but easily…
This is the line that got me: >And so we are fairly broadly deployed software and where we enjoy administrative privileges in customer environments. There is a lot of talk about shoring up security practices by many of…
An old one: Q: how many Microsoft engineers does it take to change a lightbulb? A: none they just change the standard to darkness.
For non-fiction, I'd add The Hell of Treblinka, by Vassily Grossman, a Red Army journalist who was one of the first to enter the death camp. One of the hardest things i've read. "It is the writer's duty to tell the…
