    We spend 68 million dollars on the military per hour. An aircraft carrier group alone costs somewhere between 2-3 million per day to operate. We spend huge amounts on force project…

    At the risk of being downvoted, any Pixel users enable "Hey Google" recognition on their phones only to regret it? I'm constantly dealing with the phone interpreting commands inten…

    Doesn't the AAMC regulate the number of nurse practitioners? My understanding was that increasing the pool of nurse practitioners would help alleviate the cost of treatment for bas…

    This is a cool product. The screenshots w/ uptime monitoring is useful on its own, but I esp. like that you provide a way to specify resolutions and locations. After looking at the…
