Dipping into the pool of piss is a curious design choice.

Part of the problem seems to be imposing labels and identities on yourself and others.

There's a saying that labels make you dumber and the (largely downvoted) comments mentioned in the article demonstrate this.

This is the cue for IT to make the switch from Windows.

Came here to say just this.

Another interesting one is the auricular tubercle[1], where the genetic trait of a "pointy" ear found in other mammals reappears in some humans.

Do NOT put your phone on permanently silent so that phone calls don't ring.

Disable most notifications altogether, especially: email and any form of group messages (like WhatsApp group).

For 1-on-1 instant messages / SMS, display a silent notification.

For specific email, create a special notify tag and sparingly assign it to urgent threads and some sent messages. You can also use filters to assign the tag automatically.

Deny notifications for most apps.

All calls should ring. It may be something urgent even if you don't recognize the number. It may be someone close to you calling with a hospital phone before heading out to emergency surgery. It may be the police. This is why you don't want to default to blocking hidden numbers unless you really have to.

You don't _need_ the competition, either. Just pretend it's 2005 and acquire food some other way.

You should update your CV accordingly: "Likely to pass several technical interviews (as assessed by the North Korean Reconnaissance General Bureau)."

I thought it was a coherent story with a lot of short pauses for comedic effect rather.

In the context of documents, the lack of font choice regarding Times New Roman could be partly attributed to the fact that it was the default font on Microsoft Word until 2007. The irony is, of course, that it was replaced by none other than Calibri.

Beware of the racist under construction progress bar.

Nice problem! I wonder if there is a generic way of testing such a problem with different board arrangements. For example, could you apply knot theory or another concept?

I'd personally want to hear new voices, not more of the same. I wonder if products like this take away from the opportunity for new talent to arise.

It's important to note that there's geographic variability in guidelines. Also, the article doesn't give enough information about the author's other risk factors. For a similar patient (based on the initial lab results), treated by a doctor adhering to the European guidelines, at least the following items would have been considered:

- Lipid lowering drugs

- ApoB testing

- Coronary CT (if the pre-test likelihood of obstructive coronary artery disease was estimated to be > 5%)

- Diabetes tests

- Kidney tests

There are numerous other options for supporting smoking cessation that do not risk lung injury.

How about en dash usage? Has that been used as a similar false indicator?

As a matter of fact, even the good ingredients are 100% chemical.

Congratulations! Beautiful work!

It's not a new form factor for Ascent Aerosystems, either. They did a Kickstarter for a coaxial drone in 2017.

These algorithms do exist.

Indeed the victory for the AI here is the ability to convince the author to take immediate action. The second win for the AI is the concise one liner the author tells the triage nurse so that her further diagnosis and treatment may proceed. A regular human being would be likely to start with a long form story of not feeling well for some time.

What is this? The Journal of Tautology? They repeat the exact same thing 6 times in a row.

Back in the day, cops used to touch the tail lights of cars they pulled over in order to leave fingerprints as evidence. Reader’s Digest spoke with experts who said that the practice marked a car in case the stop went wrong — leaving evidence that the officer had been there:

According to Nick Fresolone, a retired police-academy instructor with the New Jersey State Police Academy in Sea Girt, New Jersey, the “taillight tap” leaves fingerprint evidence on the glass of the taillight to prove that the officer was present at the scene. Ultimately, says Fresolone, if things escalate or otherwise go awry, the officer’s touch to the car’s taillight will have left a fingerprint in a place where investigators would know to look for it.

Criminal defense attorney Joe Hoelscher says that this routine maneuver serves as a sort of breadcrumb left to prove that the police officer had approached that particular vehicle. “Leaving a thumbprint on the brake light is an old-school way to tag a car with a fingerprint, so it can be identified conclusively as the vehicle involved in a stop should the officer become incapacitated,” explains Hoelscher.

You might want to look into books about H. Tracy Hall. He's one of the inventors of lab-grown diamonds, the hardest things ever done.

Wake up, shower & toothbrushing, out.

"The very definition of news is something that hardly ever happens. If an incident is in the news, we shouldn't worry about it." — Bruce Schneier

I know it's subjective but...

Font rendering with ClearType on Windows used to be so awful you had to install an external library[0] to get something closer to a Mac experience.

The problem with most perpetual multiplayer games is that they are potentially limitless time sinks. They are often inherently addictive with no natural end or resolution to them. Of course there are single player games that do this too, so it's not the only differentiator.

In contrast, single player campaigns (or co-op campaigns for that matter) are often story driven. They have a beginning and an end. They offer catharsis. If it's good, you may play through it again, but it will end eventually.

Judging by the Vitsœ shelving and the Lego Porsche 911, I'd guess aesthetics played a role in the purchase decision.

From a strictly subjective and non-technical point of view, aesthetics is one of Ubiquiti's merits.

They really should. The recovery of the one secret the device is supposed to keep is catastrophic. Sure, the recovery itself might be an edge case, but Yubikey users buy the product to protect themselves from edge cases.

Character names from the novel Wittgenstein's Mistress. For example "Kate".

Emotions such as 'pirate'.

Very impressive nonetheless.
