I was born in Croatia but grew up in Amsterdam and have been living for 20+ years in the US. In Holland swearing involves a lot of diseases.. for example klerelijer (cholera sufferer) kankerlijer or krijg de kanker (cancer sufferer, get cancer) In Croatia it's more like fuck your mother (jebem ti mater) God fucks your mother (jebo ti Bog mater)

In Istria we have a nicer version of telling someone to fuck God (jebi Boga) Marry God (idi Boga ženit)... you would say that to family members when you don't want to be vulgar but the message is still more or less the same :-)

In that case read the book "Range: Why Generalists Triumph in a Specialized World" from that list first. You will notice that the people that came up with solutions came from a total different discipline, while the people in that field were stuck

I wonder if central park and the other parks brings that down compared to Paris

he had heavenly feet... and godly hands......

It says it right in the article... "A key subject of the book Spam Kings by Brian McWilliams, Hawke was a Jewish-born American who’d legally changed his name from Andrew Britt Greenbaum. For many years, Hawke was a big time purveyor of spam emails hawking pornography and male enhancement supplements, such as herbal Viagra."

A good book is also the Terror by Dan Simmons, goes into more than scurvy..... https://www.amazon.com/Terror-Dan-Simmons/dp/0316486094

Just finished it yesterday.. recommended!!

That is why we can only access the prod db from a jump box in our shop.... And even then it's just certain people with less privileges than a sysadmin account. No way you can do this accidentally from your laptop then...

I used those with SQL Server back in the day. Sandisk bought them

You can maybe start charging some of these mobile devices via Solar Power Bank https://amzn.to/2RE10uT They can charge while you walk around by placing the panels on your backpack...

I know it's a small percentage of overall use, but if enough people start using solar to charge their devices and maybe in the future laptop batteries, cars and houses it's a step in the right direction

The biggest offender is the AC in the summer in the US... office is so cold people have to bring sweaters and vests

It's both isn't? In pill form it's a vitamin... from the sun it's a hormone

If you ever go to Pula, make sure to visit the Arena (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pula_Arena) and pass by Zlatna Vrata (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arch_of_the_Sergii) both are ~2000 year old

Why not just buy an OIL ETF when you think it hit the bottom.. for example https://finance.yahoo.com/quote/OIL?p=OIL

Same exists in Croatian... vozdra was very common....

The more interesting one is when you add the letter P and the syllable after the syllable For example.... Ja sam lud (I am nuts) becomes Japa sapam lupud or Ti si štupido (you are dumb/stupid ... more used in Istria instead of glup/budala) becomes tipi sipi štupuipidopo

Growing up in Holland there is no such thing really in Dutch... there is plat Amsterdams or Bargoens ... so whenever I spent time in Croatia with family I practiced my Šatrovački :-)

Also mentioned in the book Range: Why Generalists Triumph in a Specialized World

1st image has paser instead of parser...

Same here, heading has parser, sentence has paser

PARSER Paser used to generate a parse tree by reading a stream of tokens

I see this on the mail archive link

03/26/2019 - Validating a Coordination Protocol with Alloy, Using Sequence Properties to Verify a A Serial Port Transmitter, Enums In JavaScript 03/25/2019 - Boolean blindness, Ruby's Hidden Gems, StringScanner, Build yourself a DVCS

The link should be the following I think https://www.humanreadablemag.com/morningcupofcoding

I have 3 kids conceived by IVF as well. We donated the leftover fertilized eggs and a couple has now a 12 year old daughter. I have seen the pictures and my 3 kids know that they have a biological sister out there. It will be interesting to see if she will contact us once and if she finds out (We allowed for the option to contact us)

I would say yes.... for example if heart disease doesn't run in your 'family' but it does in the doctor's, it would be good to know.... same is true for other diseases

Interesting.. do a view source and you find this on the page
