There's a typo in the post:

> Anyways

I think you obviously meant "anyway".

I'm colorblind and this looks way better, thanks!

It's confusing for native English speakers as well.

> It is ironic that the person who first described how hard spaceflight by rocket is, due to the exponential nature of the deltaV equation, is also the person who described the best way to side-step that problem with non-rocket launch.

That's not ironic at all!!

Similar to this? https://www.digitalocean.com/community/tutorials/how-to-use-...

It could also be used for recreating voices for people that have lost theirs, like Roger Ebert. I think he benefited by having so much of his voice already recorded, this would make it much easier for regular people.

I think we used to call it Pink Panther.

> In fact, health officials say the virus is so contagious that if an unvaccinated person walks through a room two hours after someone with measles has left, there’s a 90 percent chance that an unvaccinated person will get the disease. People can spread measles for four days before the rash appears and for four days after.

Yikes!

I just set up with Stripe. I'm looking forward to getting Buy Me a Coffee set up tomorrow night. Thank you so much!!

I read the first Malazan book but it never really gripped me. I've heard that it really gets good at book three. Do you agree?

To me, "soft magic" is the same as "a hacker did it" that so many bad movies and TV shows use these days.

Can anyone recommend a good resource for learning PostresQL? I have a decent understanding of SQL, I've used MySQL in the past, but every time I see the latest features of Postres I'm left thinking I'll need to buy a book and take a pretty deep dive to figure out how to apply the new features.

I think the difference is not that public school systems are being dismantled but that a higher percentage of private school parents value education and are engaged in their childrens' learning.

I'm a big fan of 3-2-1 as well. What temperature do you aim for? 225F?

Any more info on your recommendation system? Anything we can check out?

I don't like Facebook, Reader was essentially my social network. All of my friends used it. I think they killed Reader to push users to Google Plus. If they had just built Reader into Google Plus I probably would have used it.

We bought a Samsung fridge and while we didn't have the serious issues you're experiencing we did have a problem with Samsung's warranty policy. Within a month of owning it the freezer handle started to crack, Samsung claimed that it wasn't covered by the warranty. We contacted them several times hoping for a different customer service agent with a different response, no dice.

Is this just survivorship bias?

Just last night I was happy to find that Safari Books Online had a 'night' feature, automatically switching would have saved me thirty minutes of burned retinas.

...just soft and pink.

Same here, I've mainly learned from just guess and check. Any tutorials I've tried (admittedly not many) are too basic and haven't given me a good mental model of how to approach a problem with CSS.

I'm colorblind and thought theirs was one of the best online tests available, but it seems they've changed it. I took their old test a few times and it seemed quite accurate to me (based on the symptoms they list). With their current test I keep getting "inconclusive". Here are my results from the "good" test, I agree 100% with the symptoms but I don't agree with the simulation: http://enchroma.com/test/result/strong-protan/?completed=1&r...

Often, especially in the DC metro area, police do not live in the same jurisdictions that they work in.

Heat maps aren't always easy to make sense of for colorblind people like myself.

Because we should be saying "one third", "one fourth", etc., but it's a little bit faster to say "a third".

Break something before you finish your day. Fix it first thing next morning.

I wish I didn't have a phone at my desk.

There's a great Radiolab episode, Patient Zero (http://www.radiolab.org/2011/nov/14/), that covers the the spread of AIDS and tracing the disease back to its origin.
