I had more success with the Prolog language track on https://exercism.org/tracks/prolog
It's a mind-bending language and if you want to experience the feeling of learning programming from the beginning again this would be it
The confusing part of this is there are now two distinct kinds of profiles: the old profiles that you create through about:profiles and the new profiles that you create in this profile switcher, which appear to be nested within the old profile
Haskell practically encourages this style of programming. Any function that touches IO needs to wrap outputs with an appropriate monad. It becomes easier to push all IO out to the edges of your program and keep your core purely functional with no monads
Exoskeletons are usually made of chitin and not keratin. But maybe it works the same way
This one has to take the cake for one of the worst tracking consent screens I've ever seen
I just want to be able to message people on Instagram without getting sucked into reels
I'll believe it when they make a phone screen that can survive a fall onto ceramic tile
Drug plans often bring this down to $0-600/year out of pocket
That might not be enough without any assessment of the subject's typing skill. Touch typists have effectively memorized the keyboard layout and would need less effort to find the key to type, even if limited to one finger at a time

I'm a software engineer with around 15 years experience (5 in management). I've mostly worked for small startups and mid-sized companies. I support engineers on my team by addressing pain points in their tech stack, team process and training. Currently seeking a hands on engineering role.
I think the big difference here is that the Qattara Sea would be a major engineering project involving specialized skills and machinery.
The Great Green Wall is more open in that anyone can contribute to its construction. All you need is a shovel and some seeds.
It may have taken 5 minutes to write the code, but it sounds like they spent years thinking about the change to make.
Can we just name this a rocket candle?
These terms sound like they were mistranslated from another language
I can't seem to open the Notion page. I keep getting redirected to the last doc I had open in a different Notion space. Are the permissions set to public?
I think Flattr does exactly this https://flattr.com/ but it looks like they may have changed their business model recently
They're not saying it explicitly but it sounds like the software for managing this thing will be closed source. Customizations will only work on Mac and windows. Hard pass from me unless someone reverse engineers the configuration protocol
I've had good experiences running OpenWRT on the TP-Link Archer C7. It's a popular router and I've been able to find plenty of them used for around $40
Since you mention prescriptions and providers, does this mean you intend to distribute the product through dentists?
I'm sure there's more to it than this, but I think that a bit of unfortunate timing may have contributed to Quibi's demise. This may have had a chance in the pre-lockdown world when everyone was rushing around, and had a few short moments of boredom in between.
With most people no longer commuting and most forms of entertainment and recreation closed, a lot of people have fewer things competing for their time. I think many people are now spending their time on things that use up longer chunks of time: watching TV or movies, going outside, and hobbies.

One thing that isn't clear is how effective female trees are at removing pollen from the air. Is it possible that even with a much higher population but a more balanced sex ratio, there would still be a lower airborne pollen count?
This is such an interesting insight into how urban planning decisions can affect health.
What are the chances that airborne allergens increase rates of food allergies?
Excel in the streets, Haskell in the sheets
In other news, rumours report that the next iMac will reintroduce the floppy drive
I'm really not a fan of absolute paths in the compose file:
services:
volumes:
- /path/to/my/code/on/my/dev/machine:/path/to/the/code/in/the/container
In the case where you have a compose file that builds multiple projects (See: double time!), keep the compose file in one git repo, and then include the code for the other two projects (webappone and webapptwo) as submodules.
Build-args and ENVs are not the same thing. Build-args use the ARG syntax and are baked in during docker build. ENVs are not baked in; the values are passed in during docker run or docker exec.
"The Uber brand guidelines were sure to make clear that they doesn't want their logo to be urinated on or to be associated with condoms or sex. Because there was a real danger that might have happened."
I see ads for Uber on Grindr all the time. What's that about not associating the brand with sex?
