    In the late 80s/early 90s when I was kite-battling, it was common to use these glass coated strings. I haven't played in decades, but it does seem quite dangerous now that I think …

    Congratulations on the launching to real users. I know how challenging that is and especially when your users are kids, I can imagine the pressure is much higher. One piece of feed…

    A "real" demo video was exactly what I was looking for as well. Since the concept is so novel, seeing the product in action would increase my trust, and willingness to buy signific…

    In addition, UIUC closed their in-person MBA program not long ago. Maybe a sign of things to come? https://www.insidehighered.com/quicktakes/2019/05/28/illinoi...

    Great to hear and congratulations to the team. Amazing persistence. I used to be a huge Textmate fan - it was so revolutionary in its time. Unfortunately, I think it is too late. T…

    You must have taken the standard RIPE therapy which consists of 4 powerful drugs: rifampin, isoniazid, pyrazinamide, and ethambutol. Plus sometimes doctors add some other pills to …

    The reason is that in some trials of Delamanid, a rare but serious side effect called QT prolongation was uncovered. To monitor for this side effect, a patient needs to have regula…
