Zaphod would be quite happy.

I'm slowly recovering from 4 moves in the last 4 months (and a tiny bit of homelessness). My lease expired and rent was raised too much for me to justify staying where I was. Thoug…

Betting someone will kill themselves or go to prison is far from constructive, and is triggering to many. Go to prison is one thing. Suicide is another. It's not a joke. EDIT: Suic…

Funny enough, not a nurse, but took over a 2 year "sabbatical" to do COVID testing and Vaccination. As someone who is used to making design decisions on an EHR in previous consulti…

Can confirm - did once for my 100th jump, and once on a birthday. Nothing quite like naked skydiving.

I'm curious as to why you think the planes should be fixed, but "that's kind of not the point"? It seems to me that it's pretty far out of the frequency boundaries.

Perhaps a bad photo or low quality? The one I tested was highly compressed and far from original resolution and scored quite high. Very interested in the dataset though.

Not sure how reliable it is - although I put up one of my more favorite pictures I've shot and it earned a 7.98 and was better than 97% of photos uploaded... Interesting stuff. Cou…

There are various types of PCR tests - I suspect you are referring to a Nasopharyngeal swab - which goes from tip of the nose to base of the ear (and it much smaller than a long Q-…

Going back to COVID testing for a bit before I jump back into my technical side. There is some serious need, and I have a good amount of experience last year. It's now been a 2 yea…

I so want to respond with Orbital lyrics... but this is a very good point.

I am not. I reported something and was fired the next day. I was also wearing a PAPR (N100 Powered Air Purifying Resperator) for the time I was doing testing. Though I was in close…

I put myself out there as a frontline healthcare worker and was vaccinated prior to Christmas. My second dose fell before the 1/20 time frame by over a week. It was a one-off thing…

Just a note - the link to the position is broken, and I'm not able to find the position on your careers page.

Some are - at least most doing COVID Vaccination administration are people that I can personally say are using "lots" of hand sanitizer each day. (yes, my hands still hurt)

This was a reason I inadvertently got some previous co-workers over-excited about a feature (only to find it was only in the betas I happened to be running). Still remember having …

Will be actively doing testing, and will likely be among the first wave of "guinea pigs". Still going to take it, unless science says otherwise at that moment. There's a lot to be …

If anyone has suggestions that work in the current COVID world - it would help. Attending regular gatherings just isn't a thing anymore that I'm seeing. Meeting new people when man…

While I certainly don't have all the answers, I have met with the founder, and am happy to connect anyone to someone who does. I will answer any questions that I personally can, ho…

One of the most hard-hitting movies for me lately: Wheels (2014)[1] - Especially after spending a decent amount of the last year in a wheelchair. [1]: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt…

Volunteering at our homeless shelter doing health assessments and triage was certainly much better than sitting at home watching TV and worrying more. Many of my prospects disappea…

My comment said it's not an option. And yes I would sacrifice said things right now. but again - not an option.
