Yes, just to keep a current version in the decade. My first repurchase was either because moving from powerPC to Intel compatibility or wanting docx files with a big Office shift. …

I’ve always bought a fresh perpetual license to office home and student with every new computer since 2005. That is four mac computers total and I assume ~$600 in office licenses o…

Methane >> carbon dioxide as a polyethylene/linear polymers feed stock. Double bonded oxygens are hella higher affinity than four loose hydrogens. Also as pointed out, even in a co…

The carbon isn’t valuable elementally as much as it is structurally and molecularly. I mean that as aromatic rings and other ready made building blocks that conveniently can be fra…

Don’t use hsv color wheel to intuit color space. CIE x,y $year_standard is superior to view color space and understand the tricolor values Z = f(X,Y) in every way. https://en.wikip…

Nah, I like organizing and packing my own bags to unpack into my refrigerator and pantry. And I appreciate the reprieve from small talk to the cashier or feeling the person behind …

Latitude may affect the eddy currents and resulting convective shear on the film surface imparted by angular momentum from the earth’s spin. This is what humors me about analytical…

I’m having a really hard time reading with the background particles.

Non-scientific anecdote here but I feel like the lawlessness is due to lack of enforcement for traffic violations vs an uptick in weed usage. Possibly covid scrambled our brains an…

How is this easier than pulling the plant out of the soil?

I think this says more about how much of our tasks and demonstrations of ability as developers revolve around boilerplate and design patterns than it does about the Cognitive abili…

I’ve used respirators through prior lab work and be warned the ammonia grade and organic solvent grades are distinct filter packing.

Noted, that confirms my suspicion. Thanks.

I’ve always worked in a datacenter (non cloud) with separate db servers to the app servers. Besides network latency, what is the advantage of collocating the http server and databa…

This is a QVC product with the name of a US tech city slapped on it. Signed, a guy living nearby the home of QVC in a decidedly non-tech area of the US. Ps. don’t buy future e-wast…

I think that has more to do with our willingness or ability to value labor in a highly abstracted overseas and automated economy. In addition, there has been a complete disconnect …

Independent projects but not unrelated since there was a historical dependency from OpenSSH to OpenSSL. https://serverfault.com/questions/780476/generating-ssh-keys... My knowledge…

Lower and median IQ people still benefit from literacy, numeracy, and art to function in society. The point of education systems isn’t to boost individuals’ dimensionally reduced 1…

If you hadn’t discovered this already with you mac CLI commands, OpenSSH from OpenSSL ‘ssh-keygen’ command is a good way to create SSH keys in ClI and ships in many OSes or is a li…

I cannot stand the latency using a local app. Same with rendering views of local file systems. Frontend reactivity as the expense of responsive performance is the problem with mode…

As an aside, my preference for a class container is dataclass(slots=True) for typing. I’d normally used dataclasses as np array containers vs serialized tuple row objects.

Radon fan drawing from two basement surfaces (concrete slab crawlspace addition and original stone foundation with cement floor): $1,200.00 usd in 2020 with warrantied fan and incl…

We use coconut oil for kids’ diapers and as skin moisturizer. The melting point (above room temperature in winter) and skin absorption makes it less greasy to me. And it seems ok a…

Cool, thank you for the response and details.

Cool visualization for your personal logbook. How is the raw or display data stored? The globe map reminds me of this hexagonal grid article from my bookmarks I’d found on here or …
