I think I am one of the laziest people around and even I can't imagine doing this. The first thing that got me was the part about having sensitive data. If you're doing this, how s…

Times are getting so much tougher. I remember my early morning organic chemistry classes using top hat. I never showed up to class, but I had my top hat app open. The answers were …

I would love to have known. I would imagine the steel mill would have a larger turnover rate than other places. The idea of an impact to the body that significantly disrupts the ab…

I'm not sure about the Intel thing, but I agree that it would be nice to be able to use it the way you want. You're talking about a company that limits you from having a comma on t…

I'm not really against phones, but I don't understand when they became acceptable to begin with. I keep reading about them being recently banned in my area as well, but I distinctl…

AI has been really interesting. I definitely feel its benefits when I want to cram some learning in. On the other hand, it has introduced a new and novel issue for me that feels an…
