From the paper[0]: > Four predetermined questions were posed regarding sun exposure: (i) How often do you sunbathe during the summertime? (never, 1−14 times, 15−30 times, >30 times…

Instead, I will assume that the FDA has not reversed a decades-long policy without evidence stronger than a local news station which uses a local weed doctor as their quotable sour…

I've been hunting for the related source for this (and similar) article today. I cannot find any FDA press releases[1] which point to any documents like this being released. From a…

The javadoc tool is useful for creating simple HTML documentation directly from the source code. But you end up choosing between making the documentation comments legible as source…

Confusingly, that wikipedia page cites the same IBTrACS system that I referred to, and in that page[0] the max intensity is listed at 213 knots. The data shows that the 213 knot sp…

UX suggestion: allow dropping on an already-played piece. If the tile you are dropping comes from the tray, put the already-played piece into the tray. If the tile was in the grid,…

Check out the "Natural Number Game"[0], which is sort of a practical tutorial but leaves a LOT of things unexplained. I took a few proofs-heavy university classes among the math/cs…

In several organizations, I have been the person who writes high-quality documentation. I enjoy writing (and reading) good technical documentation, so this is a self-appointed resp…

At scale distances from the 27m sphere planetarium (as the sun), earth would be a 24 cm sphere at distance of 2.8 km. From looking at a map, this could be a basketball somewhere a …

The premise of this article is better than its execution. The author even points in the direction of open and honest sharing, saying "others could surely have learned from the mist…

Woodward and Bernstein were already investigating (for many months prior to the crash), and Nixon's later coverups (after March 1973) don't seem to be connected to the crash in any…
