There are ligatures in fixed-width fonts[0], like VSCode with the Fira Code font! I've been using it for a week or two now and like it so far. [0] HN discussion: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=14821446
There are a lot of comments about smoking more to make up for reduced nicotine levels, but this is a little bit misguided. Keep in mind the time it takes to consume nicotine. If you have a 5-minute smoke break at work…
From the announcement: "Importantly, the anticipated new enforcement policy will not affect any current requirements for cigarettes and smokeless tobacco, only the newly-regulated tobacco products such as cigars and…
That's fair, but when I shop I don't buy food with just one meal in mind. Sure, at home maybe I'll have a bit less onion one day then I would prefer because I used half of it the night before, but storing excess in the…
You don't _have_ to shop on Amazon. But I feel like being a cognizant consumer is your own responsibility. By that I mean I don't have to cross-reference with 8 other sites, I feel like the prices are fair, and as best…
How does meal-kit distribution eliminate a lot of food waste?
You'd need, like, electronic locks to randomize the unlock code or something. Seems like a reasonable way to keep people from stealing. As-is they just gave everyone an umbrella that only they could unlock!
Well some people don't have a few hundred dollars to drop on a new phone when they need one. At that point you're at the whim of the carrier anyways.
Glad that worked out for you! Highly dependent on circumstances, though. I have a 30 minute _drive_ to get to my office, and it's supposed to be 117 degrees next Monday. Walking is pretty impractical in Phoenix in…
That's true, but you can see if any of your FB friends are also using the same service! 'Importing' isn't ok, but verifying via API is ok.[0] [0]: https://developers.facebook.com/docs/graph-api/common-scenar...
I mean, I really want us as a country to follow the agreement, but not so badly that I want to dissolve the entirety of the United States and legally unravel our entire country over it. This, IMO, is not Civil…
Because states can't leave the Union.
I had one on infini-loan from a non-fidgety coworker, but then I changed desks. I didn't want to outright steal their spinner so I've gone back to playing with pens. Haven't yet felt the need to go buy a spinner, pens…
They exploded in to popularity at my office. And if my coworkers are all about the spinners they are def no longer cool.
So, if we assume that the dinosaur has 1 billion base pairs in its genome (huge assumption, see my other comment), it has degraded over 110 million years with a half life of 512 years, there is functionally 0 base pairs…
How would you know where to align the sequences? I am not an evolutionary biologist so maybe one of those people have a "yes, actually!", but consider modern descendants of dinosaurs have 1 billion base pairs and…
For something that's expected to sell for over $10m, I doubt they figured one internet article would surely help sell it. I'm fairly confident anyone who seriously wants to buy one of these already knows it's up for…
