iiinova — where your digital self keeps evolving

The article doesn't dismiss Covid but the trend predates Covid and Covid doesn't, at least directly, cause traffic accidents and fentanyl overdoses. It's just one of the factors. They suggest there are separate underlying causes.

Better than him in the White House basement (aka PEOC) talking about nuclear weapons.

Happy Anniversary. Make sure you cap it at noon. No need to become a UFA yourself.

“Double me!” You know I can’t resist a good language development video, which is why this one from shshshayla on TT jumped right to the top my list for sharing this week. Thread 🧵

Just like doctor metrics, production quality ≠ actual quality. If you record it, we're here for it.

The problem with most machine-based random number generators is that they’re not TRULY random, so if you need genuine randomness it is sometimes necessary to link your code to an external random process like a physical noise source or the current rate of US tariffs on a given country.

Maybe let's show some respect for the working Canadian who is going to have to clean that up. There are better, more productive, (and classier) ways to direct our energy.

But will this impact the age at which Canadian children learn the concept of a dozen relative to American children?

Belongs in professional wrestling, not hockey. He knew what he was doing. Driving someone's head into the ice is a potential serious head/neck injury.

It's a trade off. For every time you want someone to remind you, there will be 20 that you don't. Chances are, these will also be at inopportune times like your wedding reception, etc.

Maybe he got two fewer for not whining about it in his hearing. McDavid clearly did if the Oilers organization felt a statement of support was both advisable and necessary.

I'm surprised that many of commenters seem to think tech workers are the same ones running scams. Clearly it's fueling some of the animosity. Maybe I shouldn't be surprised that they don't realize how many people speak English in India.

I don't think she's asking for SOME studies. She's asking for THE studies. You can go to google scholar and find a single study with any conclusion. It's useful to see the actual studies news sources are referencing.

American healthcare is already a monopoly. True competition would come from the introduction of a public option to compete with the private one.

Interesting, but probably a bit of a distortion when the vast majority of the southern third are all in Tainan and Kaohsiung.
