Can't wait to see this story used on some growth hacker / seeking new opportunities LinkedIn post talking about planning for success.

Most Walmarts that I've come across at least have other stores nearby. I can't help but wonder how these will impact poorer, rural areas where Dollar General is king.

DG already has already faced lawsuits related to their advertised pricing vs price at the register. Surge pricing in a food desert sounds like a Late Stage Capitalism wet dream.

Not a father but a "fun uncle" to my buddy's kids. I bought them a snap circuit set and they absolutely loved building out the projects in the booklet. In a couple years (the oldest was five at the time), I hope to revisit the snap circuits and introduce how this all works.

The unit I'm affiliated with was tasked by the university to run replications and ultimately assist with the retractions. This was all done by my colleagues but I heard about it quite often. Past that I am going to refrain on commenting more as I'm unqualified to do so.

Two published replication studies (used for retractions) can be found here:

I really enjoy my pair of BeatsX. They have the same W1 chip as the AirPods which makes pairing simple. They do have a cord between the buds but also have an inline mic and volume / music controls.

They aren't as sexy as the AirPods but I was able to pick them up on sale for $75 so I have no real gripes.

I also agree with her and have had similar instances in my life where I chose to be silent.

My interpretation of this silence is an evaluation of opportunity cost. I choose to be silent even though I might have something to say because I value the time saved avoiding a pissing match by forgoing any benefit of speaking my mind.

I might be totally missing the mark on her intended meaning. Regardless of my interpretation, it is pretty disheartening that advancements in various areas can be stalled due to people reacting (read wanting to be offended) rather than listening, processing and engaging.

I picked up this little device for $39 when they ran that sale a couple weeks ago. I ended up downgrading to Fire OS 5.1.2 and then rooted and flashed on ASOP. Basically have a Nexus-eque device on the cheap and have been enjoying it thus far.

All in all it took me 45 mins to complete the root / install but this was mostly just going slow and reading up on the process. The actual flashing and rooting portion of the job only took 15 mins.

For those interested I have bookmarked a few links that guided me through the process (this was my first Android device. Yes I am late to the party).

Scat!: https://getsc.at Issue tracking utility for Slack.

Still a work in progress but with Scat you will be able to use Slack commands to create and manage issues. The command will respond with a bot to list out issues based on the initial prompt. The goal is to have nearly everything related to an issue built into Slack commands and off load some of the editing to a lightweight web UI.

I'm sure something like this already exists but it has been a blast so far playing around with the Slack API.

Never expected to read an article about this on HN. I had Kawasaki's and was extremely lucky that my doctor recognized it from another case they had with a boy from the next town over.
