    Serious question: could this work in reverse if you took a fecal transplant from someone with “severe” autism and gave it to someone below the ASD cutoff?

    I’m really sorry you feel that way. I’m very thankful for the stability and opportunities being a union member has provided my family since I left the tech field, and I wish my fri…

    The article touches on this. Pilot wages are very similar across major US airlines due to heavy unionization and pattern bargaining, so labor is more-or-less a fixed cost (and not …

    What deck are you using? I’ve been wanting to supplement my Spanish learning with an Anki deck for a while now.

    For what it’s worth, I am washing them in a top loader. I wonder if that does make a difference.

    It’s uncomfortably close to bribery, but Precheck/Global Entry is worth every penny.

    I agree with you about the breathability of those merino t-shirts, but I think the author is right about their fragility. I feel like mine constantly get runs or shrink even though…

    May also happens to be the month construction began on one of EWR’s two commonly used runways (though they do have a smaller third runway). This severely reduced the amount of traf…

    A note for Kobo users: a lot of us (myself included) use Calibre to manage and upload our ebooks. Something about Calibre messes up Kepub files and strips out a lot of the formatti…

    I contacted support in 2021 as well, trying to regain access to my account made in 2010. They told me that they wouldn’t help me.

    RNAV RNP approaches can contain curved descents. They’re usually used in areas with high terrain but I don’t see why they couldn’t be used down here. LPV minimums seem to usually b…

    Grew up in ND/MT. In my experience the ranchers would use a tractor to move the carcass somewhere deserted, and then let the coyotes do the final clean-up.

    I’m not sure I have any suggestions on how to fix it, but the Skypath integration with the moving map in Jepp FD Pro is way too cluttered. There’s already quite a bit of informatio…

    You guys have a great product, I fly for a major airline and really like it. Hurry up and get Delta onboard so we can get their data too: I’ve used their in-house app at my old job…

    Sounds quite a bit like wake turbulence. As planes move through the air, they leave air vortices called “wake” (much like a boat does in water). This effect is worse when airplanes…

    I didn’t go through it myself, but for him placement rate was the #1 thing he made his decision on. TE was about 75% coding and 25% interview skills from what I was told. He liked …

    As recently as 10 months ago, my brother did a boot camp with no prior experience and landed a job as a junior dev with a ~$100k package. His class had a placement rate of maybe 2 …

    I’m not going to shill too hard for a tax prep company, but I’ve used FreeTaxUSA for years and am satisfied. Cheap, simple, no hidden fees I’ve noticed.

    I work in aviation and have moved that wheel out of curiosity. As expected, the jet bridge moved up and down with the wheel!
