Although your bill might only show one bundled price depending on who supplies and delivers your electricity, the cost of electricity in the US usually includes both a "supply" or "generation" charge and a "delivery"…
It depends on the climate where you live though, right? Where I am there's plenty of congestion. There's also plenty of rain, snow, slush, and road construction. The snow removal and construction really take a toll on…
I'm also in the northeast US (more specifically New England) and that's the issue I couldn't get around when I looked into it. My AC unit is only 1.5 tons but my furnace is 40k BTU and, unlike the 75k BTU furnace it…
The second sentence of the article is > A strange tip had arrived from Belgium’s gambling commission. I can't speak to Belgium specifically, but in many areas one of the responsibilities of the gambling/gaming…
Five tests of "I made a pot of tea" on the other hand were far less successful. 1. "I have made a teaspoon" 2. "I lived in a stain" 3. "I'm drinking tea" 4. "I have made a single potential" 5. "I made a basket"
The languages it gets translated to aren't deterministic so I put the same sentence in 10 times. I was curious if a simple statement that has a conceptual equivalent in many cultures would tend to survive relatively…
>The FDA approved Tezpire as a breakthrough drug for asthma in December 2021. Tezspire excluded morbidly obese people from their efficacy trials. This statement is very misleading because morbidly obese people were only…
To me, a lot of this reads more like some sort of "Team/Company Values and Culture" document than the user manual of a single individual. Things like "Default to action" are pretty dependent on team/company culture and…
The requirement the GP was referring to comes from the combination of the Telecommunications Act of 1996 and the 21st Century Communications and Video Accessibility Act (CVAA) rather than the ADA. The Telecommunications…
By how much and why the cost of labor has changed over time is an interesting question. I'd assume that the bulk of the cost of labor is wages, but there are some other direct and indirect costs that might contribute in…
I'd guess personal preference of the musicians themselves is part of the reason microtones aren't more common in "western" music. Most of the musicians that I personally know at least seem to prefer creating/performing…
Someone who works in medical research once pointed out to me that some research is intended to be confirmatory (i.e. confirming a hypothesis) but other research is actually intended to be hypothesis-generating. This…
After reading the actual submission by Apple that the article links to, I think the article (especially the title) somewhat misrepresents what Apple said. The overview section of Apple's submission states (numbering in…
In freight "backhaul" typically refers to transporting goods during the return journey. During the principle (non-return) journey, often the starting location is more central, like a distribution center, and the…
I don't tend to experience hunger and, as a result, interrupting my activities to eat multiple times per day can feel like a bit of an inconvenience. So I've frequently fasted daily since before "intermittent fasting"…
I used to work for a small tech company in the suburbs outside of St Louis, which is definitely not a HCOL area. When I left (to move back to a HCOL tech hub), probably about half of the engineering staff were H1-B visa…
Assuming you're deleting the row because it shouldn't be used by read queries, constraints like you described prevent the problem of having orphaned records in the child table but also prevent you from achieving your…
Did they make risk adjustments for any confounding factors? It seems like all they found is correlation so it doesn't necessarily follow that eating mushrooms was actually the reason for the reduced risk.
Not a doctor but I have seen a neurologist for migraine before and my understanding is that migraine causes a pretty unique constellation of symptoms. If someone has repeated episodes of moderate to severe throbbing…
Personally I like leading commas for the ergonomics rather than the aesthetics. When I'm developing or debugging a query the first column is typically the one I'm least likely to change. I tend to build up the query…
My understanding is that fear of not being able to fall asleep often contributes to the perpetuation of insomnia. So while the recommendation of CBT-I might be helpful, if the book also increases someone's fear of not…
Listening requires allowing your conversation partner to fill the silence with their thoughts rather than filling it with yours. So at the risk of pointing out the obvious, to improve your listening skill try talking…
An option for entry-level remote work that might be worth looking into is working as an insurance claims adjuster. I work for a company that makes software for the insurance industry and from what I've heard from…
Back in 1926 when Monsanto was a chemical manufacturer they incorporated the village of Monsanto, Illinois (later renamed Sauget) and had a chemical plant constructed there. The village is less than 5 square miles but,…
Awhile ago I read a blog post by someone who had stuck to an uberman schedule longer than most. From what I remember social pressure was part of the reason he stopped but more than that it was just very inflexible.…
