It turns out that they do have Starlink, as of 2024. Notable impacts have been improved telemedicine, remote learning opportunities for the school, and reduced attendance at the pu…

20m customers * 17% * 4 cents * 'x' transactions per customer = $136,000 * x I suppose this makes some sense. In a worst case situation, if every customer makes 10-20 transactions …

Vibe coding is a great for 'home cooked software.' Lots of people are making tools that fill a particular need for themselves. https://www.robinsloan.com/notes/home-cooked-app/ As …

I love how clean it is! One personal use case that I'd love to see supported (when you get your mobile apps implemented) is the ability to add articles via the 'share' shortcuts. I…

I tried to do exactly that once. I was offering between $20-$40 per image to make a few coloring pages as a mother's day gift for my wife. Not complex images either -- just basic c…

I imagine asking would likely do the trick. As an escalation, considering we're paying them to hold these people, we could threaten to stop paying them. They're not locking up our …

"No amount of success at work makes up for failure at home." I suppose 60 hours might be a good spot for someone who doesn't have a family and isn't interested in having one.

I'd use Familysearch Memories. There are limitations on what you can upload (15mb per PDF or image file), but it's entire purpose is to preserve family history for as long as possi…

If the author reads this, I'd like to suggest a change in font. At certain scales, the website's font puts emphasis on the cross-bar in the letter 'e', and the letter 'g'. It's inc…

There’s an interesting museum in Cody, Wyoming that has thousands of guns, including some very interesting ones like whaling guns from the 1800s. Well worth a visit if you have an …

Is anyone aware of any good iPad apps for writing notes in shorthand, then converting to text? I currently use an app called Nebo to write notes and journal entries, then convert t…

Drive north (mountains on your right) until you get to 900 North, take a right, and drive down until you get to #1259. As opposed to finding 'Oak Terrace', when a map book has 4 pa…

Am I understanding correctly that the enterprise license allows offline scanning, but that it's not possible for the standard tiers? I'm using one of the other commercial offerings…

It's actually quite public. The 'raw' doctrinal backing comes from 'Doctrine and Covenants, Section 89': https://www.churchofjesuschrist.org/study/history/topics/wor... Clarificati…

Unschooling works for some, mostly those who have a desire to self-direct. That's not everyone. Some need the assistance of external structure to be successful, and if left entirel…

You might look into a trainer for a few sessions. I'm in a similar situation, and just getting back into lifting with a set of at-home weights. Thankfully, one of my company benefi…

Could be a person testing out stolen cards with a low-value purchase, to verify that the cards are legitimate. They then can use them elsewhere for much larger purchases.

Let me explain a bit more of the procedures, and it may explain why I think this is at least one factor (though I agree that more buildings also means there will be more shoddy bui…

The Architect of Record isn't just signing off on paint colors and finish quality, but on things like the seals around windows, flashing on roofing elements, fireproofing on the st…

This is anecdotal, but back when I was working in architecture (10ish years ago), I visited the principal of our Chinese sister firm in Beijing, and we walked around and talked abo…

Convenience. Renting from a rental shop involved ordering online using a bad UI, showing up at an office, waiting in line, getting told the car you'd requested isn't available, wou…

The asynchronous nature of email is useful. If I get a chat message in slack or teams, I generally assume a response is needed immediately. If I get a notification, I'll drop what …
