Small teams prioritize expertise and agency. Large teams prioritize service resilience and depth of coverage.
Two large lotteries in my area: Lotto Max: 1:33,294,800 Lotto 649 1:14,000,000 (excluding the smaller pool draws of 5/6, 4/6, etc) One ticket as the width of a human hair (60-80 µm). The winning numbers are a hole the…

I find HN rife with its own form of "I'm too smart" bro-science. Your cardiologist spoke directly with you; they're a trained, accredited, licensed, and in good standing professional. Go with your interpretation of what…

I heard this presented as a photography class. Doing a quick search shows that it's from a memory plot in "Atomic Habits" by James Clear. The story features Jerry Uelsmann and having his class of photographers either…
This used to be a feature in Opera a decade ago IIRC.
Thank you for giving that insight against my assumption! I discovered GPSJam a few months ago, and have enjoyed some of your content on Twitter, and really enjoyed your work on the longer form article from a few years…
(major assumption) That's more than likely the position of the USS Gerald R. Ford (CVN-78). Its support planes are in the area [1], and it was sighted on Sep 28 near Italy [2], and if I understand it correctly, has been…

The codes are possibly (also) related to incidents that CDC or other organizations would like statistics on. Lemur's aren't common, ducks are, and "Chlamydia psittaci in ducks: a hidden health risk for poultry workers"…
I have more trust for eBay then Amazon at this point. However, I think the last purchase I made through Amazon was super specific (particular model of washing machine agitator motor) and unlikely to be glump-binned. So…
My first comment on this site was about Bombardier. Bombardier went into high-risk, high-reward territory, and failed: 1) project they'd never done before 2) technology they'd never used to build and model 3) highly…

Canada's "The Trucker's Protest" is more commonly referred to as a hostile occupation and blockade. There is a strong white-washing attempt by certain unsavory elements to recast it as a benign protest movement.
This issue has come up in the past on other forums, I think one of the answers that I identified the most with was saying: "I'm not sure I agree with that, and I have a few significant concerns. I'm not comfortable…
That's a fair point, and I think you're giving a good example of a certain context of established-expert wrt beginner and how to treat it. FWIW, I had a friend indicate that because (tenured?) teaching positions are…
