Not at all dumb. Source: I worked summers making toothpicks in one of the Forster mills (the name is in the patent). Toothpick making was big business in Maine until the late 1970's. It's mostly done overseas now.
The idiom "ferret away" means to store something in a secret place, and the idiom "ferret out" means to find something by careful searching. Seems like a pretty good name for a database.
I don't know which interview you're talking about, but in any event you don't know what his motivation was for saying what he said when he said it. Perhaps he was wrong, perhaps he changed his mind, perhaps he was…
> He said that masks wouldn't be helpful march 08 2020. A month layer New York had a thousand detected covid deaths a day, so people really should have started to wear masks march 08 2020 since deaths lags infections by…
I know his recommendations have changed over time, but can you cite well documented instances where he lied?
What in the world is going on with that URL?
I have a similar problem with my 2017 Pacifica that replaced my 2005 Voyager. Using the touch screen to control the heat and air-conditioning is extremely slow in the Pacifica, and you can't do it without looking at the…
My brain kept spoonerizing the alias to "Bill Benemy". Google searches show that "Benemy" is a real surname, but it's not very common. Google also informed me that "Benemy" (or "Benami") means "no name" in Urdu, so if…
Could also be "Business Logic Layer"
If I understand you correctly, then it does seem true to me that nature has no agency. However, when the choice a consumer has is to either pay the asking price for a <em>needed</em> drug or to die then I think the…
Is the market for drugs really free though? I believe that in a free market there is supposed to be no coercion between the parties to a transaction. In the case of drug purchases there may be a kind of coercion…
It's pretty quick to plant bare-root seedlings using a spade or "dibble". About 45 years ago another Boy Scout and I planted approximately 1,000 pine seedlings on a tree farm in a single day using a variant of the…

I'm in total agreement. I'd add that for me the worst kind of distraction is having a co-worker talking about something interesting on the phone. As focused as I try to be, I find my brain defies me and tries to fill in…

If mining is profitable at all, why wouldn't a manufacturer of ASICs or GPUs run its own mining operation?
Well, the author was talking about organs, not genes. Generally speaking the organ arrangement described in the article (external testes, internal ovaries) is pretty well conserved among placental land mammals even if…
I think I understand. To be fair, I haven't heard United claim that $1350 was the limit, but I've heard people on CNN and elswhere claim that (in effect) the airline's hands were tied and they could not offer more than…
Are there any lawyers around who can explain the $1350 limit? Some sites like DailyKOS[1] have claimed that the $1350 "limit" has been misinterpreted. What it really means is that $1350 (or four times the fare,…
