Heh, "Eunuchs 69."
This gives me hope! I was reading some of Dianna Kennedy's ("The Julia Child of Mexico") books and she goes into some detail of the loss of heirloom varieties of different crops in Mexico due to cheap imports. The…
I'm not a sleep researcher, so I'm not really qualified to say. I did poke around and find some papers on caffeine's affects on sleep, but there honestly wasn't (IMO) a huge amount a research, and what I did find mostly…
Warning: ill-formed rant below I'm in my mid-30's and I feel like I've seen the change in my time. Some parents of kids my age were of the helicopter variety, but that was more of an exception. Most parents I know now…
> By bedtime it is all metabolized. According to Pollan, for most people, there's still enough in your system to disrupt your natural sleep; your brain doesn't shut down enough to get a good rest. IIRC, he was…
That looks like it, but I heard it in 2022 or 2023, might have been a re-run. I can't listen to it right now, but I remember in the program he was talking about publishing some of his books describing his experiences…
I've actually been cutting out caffeine after listening to Michael Pollan talk about drugs and society on NPR. Turns out the half life is typically long enough that using caffeine every day long term will lead to…
> Kids these days rarely have patience for this sort of thing, at least my kid doesn't. It's not just your kid, I know some long-time K-12 teachers and they would agree with you, to say the least. This is something…
I usually lurk, then make an account with a random password if the urge to comment comes upon me. I'll use the account until I clear my cookies and repeat the whole process. Part of this is to dodge textual analysis by…
Thank you!
I've been noticing a lot of Christians on HN lately. I'm not saying it's a coordinated effort, but I've seen more in the past 2 weeks than I've seen in the past decade.
Funny how we're coming back around to pop-ups, except they're called "modals" now. I had to use a browser without ublock a little while back, and I honestly don't know how people use the web anymore if they don't have…
I'd be interested in seeing this if anyone could link me. Speaking of other invoicing software, does anyone know what generates those ASCII invoices you'll receive occasionally? The 80-column ones that look like a shell…
This brings something up which I don't understand about US tax code. Why can't I be taxed on income which I've already earned instead of having to estimate to within ~5% (IIRC) what I should earn? I'm sure there are…

Besides the habit loss for the grassland birds, which lost over 50% of their population, I wonder how much of this is due to pesticides killing off their primary food source. If you get rid of pesticides, you need more…
Yeah chest holster is a must. Or suspenders with a belt and hip holster.
I don't necessarily disagree, 10mm has better range, capacity and recoil characteristics, but I figure in most scenarios with a grizzly charging you, you're only getting off a couple of shots at close range anyway. I'm…
I'd use a 10mm in cougar country and get a .454 for griz TBH. /$.02
