One sparsely populated county in Colorado has chosen to test every individual. It will be interesting to see if it makes much of a difference.

It will never be enough for people who demand perfect safety.

If people fail to internalize information, they will need to cede some relating of information to algorithms.

Ceaseless abdominal pain and lack of energy from food really paralyze productivity or constructive thinking

I've struggled some with trying to generate MIDI files from code. The encodings are a PITA but I've had more problems with understanding why my files become malformed when I increase duration beyond a few measures. Feels like I obey the spec but I've missed something basic.

Ditto Microsoft

Ultimately you need to depend on them to safeguard the decrypted plaintext as well from any threat in the context

It seems that any medium that people find useful for communication will eventually be dominated by spam. It's too easy to produce relative to useful content.

I think that the existing state of the internet infrastructure has been deemed too big to fail, and that anything that threatens its stability will not be treated kindly. When ILECs started struggling during competition with CLECs as the first tech bubble came apart, the mandated leasing of line stuff to the CLECs was terminated, and I don't see anything heading in that direction at all after things stabilized. They want the big players to stay healthy.

They were about $7 around a year ago from Walmart

Feels the same. A new driver introduced periodic stuttering in games and somehow destabilized the installer environment enough to make uninstalling the driver impossible. Had to reinstall Windows and have decided to just leave the original driver that works in place.

I have thought about it as a blind man on a merry-go-round in deep space. The apparent force required to remain in place or Coriolis effect with radial movement is an obvious measurement of rotation. If it could be accelerated, there is only one rotational speed destination speed at which these effects will zero.

I've usually preferred to use manual note taking for long meetings. There's something about transcribing the thought to script that solidifies it in memory

Few young people are willing to be corrected about anything these days. Even if it's a factual issue about which they're wrong, they'd rather chalk it up to a "typo" or difference of opinion, thereby accepting no responsibility for ignorance, and move on with their crummy knowledge. It's a bad state of affairs as it makes learning very difficult.

This is no longer the case per the German suicide pilot. The doors are supposed to withstand an hour of entry attempts.
