It is ironic that the person who first described how hard spaceflight by rocket is, due to the exponential nature of the deltaV equation, is also the person who described the best way to side-step that problem with non-rocket launch.

That's not ironic at all!!

In fact, health officials say the virus is so contagious that if an unvaccinated person walks through a room two hours after someone with measles has left, there’s a 90 percent chance that an unvaccinated person will get the disease. People can spread measles for four days before the rash appears and for four days after.

Yikes!

Can anyone recommend a good resource for learning PostresQL? I have a decent understanding of SQL, I've used MySQL in the past, but every time I see the latest features of Postres I'm left thinking I'll need to buy a book and take a pretty deep dive to figure out how to apply the new features.

We bought a Samsung fridge and while we didn't have the serious issues you're experiencing we did have a problem with Samsung's warranty policy. Within a month of owning it the freezer handle started to crack, Samsung claimed that it wasn't covered by the warranty. We contacted them several times hoping for a different customer service agent with a different response, no dice.

Same here, I've mainly learned from just guess and check. Any tutorials I've tried (admittedly not many) are too basic and haven't given me a good mental model of how to approach a problem with CSS.

I'm colorblind and thought theirs was one of the best online tests available, but it seems they've changed it. I took their old test a few times and it seemed quite accurate to me (based on the symptoms they list). With their current test I keep getting "inconclusive". Here are my results from the "good" test, I agree 100% with the symptoms but I don't agree with the simulation: http://enchroma.com/test/result/strong-protan/?completed=1&r...
