Stop narcing on them on the internet, friend.
the best case scenario for means testing is always perverse incentives like this. Just give it away, man. K-16, ezpz. If you want to find efficiencies go after the sub provost to the assistant registrar for the vice…
I strongly recommend. The audiobook is good too!
too many of us work for companies willing to support this. We workers could put pressure on our employers not to. In fact, maybe we have to.
And here, for comparison, is the original Wired hype article I remember first reading which led me to wondering "hey what ever happened…" a few years ago. https://www.wired.com/2008/08/ff-agassi/
Buying the car and hot swapping the batteries (with an automated machine similar to going through a car wash, no less) was the vision of A Better Place, a short lived Israeli startup. That company failed, but I wouldn't…
I'm on a 56 key split right now but I used to use a 48, which had only F2 (of all the F keys) on any layer because it's used for jumping in Sublime Text or Atom or something. Layers vs dedicated keys becomes a matter of…
QMK has been the most joyful open source thing I've ever used. Typing on my second split keyboard with weird chording right now. I've seen a spike in rotary encoder support lately (on the Planck and an upcoming new…
For a sense of the scale of this problem, the retro reflectors that we left on the moon return 1 photon out of the 10^17 we shoot at them and that's not even that reliable. This thing would be a mind bendingly further…
> And some studies include the elderly which lowers measured progress because the elderly are an increasing share of the population and they are less likely to be working full-time if at all Should probably just burn…
The nerve of humans deigning to follow their only drives: survive and replace themselves. Disgusting. A 1.2 billion year unbroken line of sexual reproduction should be enough for anyone.
>I always wondered how "inshallah" became "ojalá". The 'j' sound in 'ojala' is the same as in 'pájaro' which in Ladino-as the article points out--is "pasharo" thus supplying the explanation. You might enjoy, as I did,…
>If some enterprising people in New York had tried to set up their own ad hoc sanitation service where they'd drive around a neighborhood in a van and for a dollar a bag they'd drive your trash to the dump they'd be…
When the Union blockaded the Confederacy, cotton workers in Lancashire, England (who were out of work without raw material) rallied against the Royal Navy breaking the blockade though it would have been in their…
This remains my favorite software ever written. It's so simple but you can do so much with it. You can end up "rediscovering" bezier curves, ellipses, and parabolas as loci of various forms. It's really something else.…
Yeah convenient as having your residence, work, and some shopping in one building would be, it's got paid-in-scrip written all over it. Also where do you meet new people? Where do you go on dates? Malls are rarely…
That's almost still true if you turn a globe to show the pacific.
The Cabot family [1], one of the big Boston Brahmin families made their bones shipping slaves and opium. If the name is familiar, Henry Cabot Lodge Jr. was one of their most prominent sons. [1]…
Please say you pronounce it "Teevee Stomp 4." Also this is a rad idea. Well done!
Huge oversight on my part, the string starts with 0xC1C, 0xC4D, 0xC1E, 0xC3E i.e. without the ZWNJ. I'm stumped https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/%E0%B0%9C%E0%B1%8D%E0%B0%9E%E...
This sequence begins the Telugu word for "knowledge" so maybe someone texted that to someone and it went viral from there. This is, of course, only speculation.
There is a fantastic pair of episodes of Citations Needed on exactly this topic. They cover the Olympics, HQ2, and sports stadiums. And you're right: city after city gives the whole farm away for these big ticket things…
I find it nuts that numbers are unmodified but delimiters like that are not when I mostly use my (US ANSI macOS layout) keyboard for front end coding. My fix was space cadet modifiers. Tapping left/right shift produces…
There is a good 99% Invisible episode about adding "Person in the lotus position" and "person with headscarf" if you'd like to know more about the process. The reporter only wanted to document the process but ended up…
Good way to hold yourself to that total: sign up for a meet as far out as you can. Or if you're competing in a fed that has an annual membership (USAPL or USPA, for instance) buy your membership now. Putting some money…
