Really this question has little to do with mathematical proof, because the basis of science is deductive, statistical knowledge.
On the same plot, there is a massive spike in attraction to the partially bald head of Stavros Halkias.
I just don’t support dogmatic thinking and indoctrination, especially when it creeps into politics, which is inevitable at the scale of the most popular religions.
In theory I have no problem with other people’s faith, but in practice it degrades the critical thinking capacity of our population and, paradoxically, the moral capacity as well. That’s a net negative in my opinion.
Charities exist without religion. I think religions often teach good moral frameworks, though very traditional. But those come with a huge caveat that you cut out a big hole in your brain for the belief that God exists and cares about how you behave. That one idea leads to so much trouble, from false prophets to normalized misogyny and hatred of gay people.
Buy a portable AC unit and install it in your bedroom or living room window.
EDIT: I have this one that works well at least on a single room: https://www.amazon.com/Vremi-000-BTU-Portable-Conditioner/dp/B084H4B6NB?th=1
If I tried this again today I would perish need to be rescued
But with discipline and training, this climb is very achievable! You don’t need to be a technical climber for this one.
Probably climbing up the West Ridge of Quandary Peak in CO. I was with 3 college friends. I didn’t expect the altitude to affect me as much as it did, but I got pretty winded. It was a little snowy and wet, so our holds were sketchy at times. Along the ridge it’s class 3 climbing, and the crux is a crack in a steep rock with a dangerous fall behind you. That was probably the biggest adrenaline rush I’ve ever had.
Thankfully we were greeted by some friendly mountain goats on our descent.
Here’s a good video of the climb. The harder stuff starts about 9 minutes in.
Scientists have been saying these same things my entire life. While they are absolutely correct, the necessary change does not seem to be a priority for leaders. At best it gets lip service and underwhelming commitments. At worst conservatives completely deny the problem. We have social issues blocking our scientific solutions.
I don’t think our existing leadership is capable of being proactive, we are always slow and reactive. We need more radical social change, which I only see happening once a certain generation dies and another takes their place.
This chart would be more readable if the corruption perception index were explained by having the polarity of the scale labeled. I.e. is green “corrupt” or not?
By following the source link, it looks like green = “clean” and gray = “corrupt”.
Sounds like Vermont gas prices are going up. That’s what happened in Seattle when similar legislation was passed.
EDIT: Just to be clear, I wasn’t making any value judgements in my original comment. Of course it’s not fun to pay more for gas, though I’m happy to do it if the money actually goes to green energy initiatives. Maybe it’s obvious to some people, but it seems somewhat deceptive to say that oil companies would be punished when really it is just a cost passed on to the consumer. This legislation won’t affect profits.
As a US citizen, I’m starting to feel like a German during WWII. What the hell am I supposed to do when there is no real opposition to Israel running for president? The two party system has completely fucked the world up.
While on its face this bill seems like a way to counter terrorism, the wise among us see it as just another means of puppeteering a government office. The US is losing its status as a representational democracy for each bill like this one.
Maybe you should be directing this sentiment at the woman who keeps talking about how she killed her dog.
The fact that this is legal is what’s blowing my mind.
I’m pretty sure that’s not what edge computing is. You’ve just described client-side computing.
The “edge” is similar to a CDN. Usually some kind of application layer code that’s running in an ISP data center rather than in a cloud provider’s data center.
How does it maintain privacy?
It’s the worst option. It hurts everyone: Ticketmaster, artists, venues, fans, and yourself for missing out on the show you want to see.
Las Vegas beat you to it.
Eh, we don’t need to disavow them completely and burn a bridge with an ally. We just need to try literally anything to make them stop picking fights and committing war crimes. Like maybe stop funding their military and sending them weapons. Then maybe further sanctions. Problem is we are doing the opposite, and we seem to fully endorse Israel’s military objectives.
Delta AMEX offers a “free” checked bag on domestic flights.
I’m not in the market, but I’ve actually had similar thoughts of building a project on top of NixOS that’s focused on self-hosting for homes and small businesses. I recently deployed my own router/server on a BeeLink mini PC and instead of using something like OpenWRT, I used NixOS, systemd-networkd, nftables, etc.
DM me if you want to discuss more. I think the idea has potential and I might be interested in helping if you can get the business model right (even if it just ends up being some FOSS thing).
