It’s not only more comfortable to file off those sharp edges but also makes the laptop less dangerous to carry around. Those sharp edges not only cause discomfort but can chip paint, damage furniture, and inflict damage in general. If you had to you could use it as a weapon I suppose.

There’s an OBGYN we’ve long had a relationship with who takes on residents and cross pollinates with them for a win win knowledge transfer. They also volunteer overseas with charitable medical efforts. Those are probably interesting avenues for keeping up with things from the outside to some degree I imagine.

I don’t know one way or another but what specifically are the pain points of deflation and how do those compare to the never ending inflation? I’ve lived under inflation all my life, it’s a slow creeping nearly sub threshold insidious process that erodes the value of money. Buy what is life like under deflation, is there pain but ultimate correction to a sane state? It feels like there is no correction to inflation.

characterize it in terms of truth, clarity of truth, simplicity, and correctness. I think we should always evaluate things along those dimensions. Is it true, does it produce truthful things. It makes the evaluation very objective.

every attempt I've attempted thus far has failed at first run, but it was close to a solution that could be adapted and fixed. This has been especially helpful in areas where I'm charting very unfamiliar territory for very narrow scoped problems.

But hearing your 10 line constraint gives me a very https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Infinite_monkey_theorem vibe to the challenge.

On July 1, 2011, HP launched the TouchPad tablet running WebOS 3.0. While Apple was selling 9 million iPads that same quarter, TouchPads were gathering dust on store shelves.

Ipad's first release was 4/2010 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IPad_(1st_generation), we're talking a year later to enter the tablet market. Would folks agree that's still a pretty fresh market to enter into? What exactly differentiated PDAs from tablets?

I can imagine these "relative text patches" could just commit as is written but could be committed with a corresponding metadata and referential locations array backed by some kind of encoding that lands in the same commit. That would unlock a visualization tool that could render a strikeout for the earlier precedent legal text or something like that in whatever way the modification applies.

that's an excellent verifiable test! I've been struggling to articulate the behavior too, advertisements and slanted search results have effectively gotten in-between my information retrieval and being steered to products and services. It's so hard to find what I'm looking for a times I often just give up and move onto something else.

we haven't done an experiment like that but I've had family know what medium certain topics were expressed and discussed over and those topics that landed in the ads that startled with their topic intersection were topics discussed only verbally vs typed into some search field or connected to some other web interaction etc.

That's kind of the smoking gun when you can create a disjoint set of topics and a disjoint set of mediums of communication delivery and see what shows up in the ad space from those discussion topics strictly expressed verbally.

this seems true and explains my inability to locate the plugin tooling for the latest version of Acrobat to develop some local extensions. My next move was to contact Adobe and ask directly where the corresponding SDK is to be downloaded for the latest local version of Acrobat. Sometimes companies give you some internal link that you can't find publicly or can't navigate to from the present version of their website.

it's terrible, I often have to drive one handed for a short time while I hold up my other hand to block the light from whatever direction its source is. Sometimes this means shielding the side view mirrors which also get intensely bright from the reflection.

yah that may be worth turning on that feature or altering the debug trace during a debug session to see what line comes up, not a bad suggestion. We turn off line traces in general so that the debug logs can be diffed after stripping off variant fields in the log records like object addresses and timestamps. While a project is in development the log line numbers would add a lot of diff noise.
