Slight correction: I just received an advertising blow-in from Ollie's listing Hanes and other brand women's tees for $1.99 each. That's for short sleeve, long sleeve or tank top in various colors. The indicated…
Add RCS to that list.
With powder bed printers overhangs and detached captured parts aren't a problem. Try making your own from an old inkjet printer.
Or perhaps the Lisa
I mean the following more to elucidate than criticize. A minor point of clarification (admittedly rather pedantic though in line with the many comments in this discussion which relate to scientific rigor) but the…
Your comment does not reflect history in the U.S.A.. And judging from the GP "our day to day lives" is very much U.S. centric. Transportation: ""By 1981, all GM vehicles would be equipped with their new Computer Command…
Others have mentioned using spaces with an en-dash or hyphen instead of an em-dash. Having used a typewriter -back in the day- I learned to produce text like this. How I learned the Unreadable: “Sometimes writing for…
Anecdata and another case against center-dash touch control panels -which are integrated with control units. Our 2013 Prius just had the center-dash unit crash likely due to the audio sub-system. And it would have…
I believe Alan drew his observation of the 'value rule' from work on ASP, Analytical Spreadsheet Package - a part of Analyst, done in the Xerox Special Information Systems Group. This system is also interesting because…
I took up the Arkansas Black cause from my grandmother who was born in the 1800's. They are unarguably hard. That contributes to them being amazing baking apples. Unfortunately whoever created this list of apples seems…
As to 70's and 80's programmers knowing about printing presses I'll point out that a significant early AI program (1968-1970) was named SHRDLU. One familiar with printing history might recognize those letters as part of…
Female ginkgo trees are the ones that bear fruit and hence produce the offensive odor. But branches of a male ginko tree can (rarely) change sex and bare fruit. I've never tried Ginko kernels roasted to the point they…
Would the early United States be considered an "individulistic society"? If so then consider the continental level genocidal practices which that society consciously adopted. Remember that all of North America was…
I encountered the idea of the 'night watch' and in fact the three traditional military watches of the night and their relationship with historical sleep patterns around the world thanks to The Paleolithic Prescription…
As klyrs mentioned, university bookstores typically have a section for writing implements where one can try out pens. Additionally, every decent art supply store I've been in has had a section for pens with paper to try…
Most radio receivers transmit a very weak signal slightly higher than the carrier frequency of the station tuned as a result of how they enhance received signals. Look up superheterodyne for details.
My favorite statement of this idea is that, "life is that which reverses entropy."

VistA has been a very successful open source project and is being continued in OpenVistA [1]. Originating as a software project in the Veterans Administration (named VA MUMPS) in 1977 it only took on the name VistA in…
Programmers have a wonderful solution that builds on shared presence -reducing loneliness- while enhancing focus. By using a shared screen for WFH, pair programming seems an ideal fit for the current situation. It also…

Squawroot is another oddly beautiful parasitic plant. It relies on the roots of living trees for sustenance.
I would prefer a sunsetting scheme along the lines of tenuring objects in generation scavenging garbage collection. In essence newly created laws would be up for review after a short period of time at which point they…
