This brings me so much joy to see.
No kidding. This might get really nasty.
This funding round is less about securing long-term profitability and more about long-term partnerships and scaling their portfolio of products[1] deeper into other third-parties such as Salesforce (and beyond):
> “The problem we’re tying to solve is likely multigenerational. It can take the rest of our lives and we need to pass it on to the generation that comes after to continue to work on it. Hopefully for the rest of humanity because I can’t imagine a time when humanity cannot benefit from an open, free, connected web,” Mullenweg told me.
> When it comes to today’s funding round, Salesforce Ventures isn’t your traditional investor — and Mullenweg is well aware of that. There could be some partnerships and integrations between Salesforce and Automattic in the future.

21 Months well earned if you ask me. I hope he loses the appeal.

Anything that improves the livelihood of the warehouse workers is a win in my book.
> The presence of methane is significant because the gas decays quickly.
If there were microbes on these spacecrafts and probes, there would have to be a massive rotting carcass producing a size-able amount of methane sitting right in front of the gas analyzers to throw off the instruments. It's more likely that the measurements of methane on Mars are (A) negligible, and (B) are naturally occurring. Especially given that methane on Earth (at any given altitude) is a about 1800ppb [1]. Contrasting with the probes *average measurements of 4ppb.
I'm no scientist, however I am an avid science reader. Here's a great summary quote from Wikipedia on the chemical relationship of methane and carbon dioxide:
> As methane rises into the air, it reacts with the hydroxyl radical to create water vapor and carbon dioxide. The lifespan of methane in the atmosphere was estimated at 9.6 years as of 2001; however, increasing emissions of methane over time reduce the concentration of the hydroxyl radical in the atmosphere.
That's just the nature of the methane here on Earth. [2] But you can probably imagine the relationship is about the same on Mars. In fact, you can read a summary about the chemical relationship here in this abstract. [3] But I would recommend some serious problem solving to piece together what this piece is trying to communicate...
Consider this hypothesis about Mars:
- Organic matter may have existed > now no longer exists.
- Methane was once at Earthen levels > now no longer is.
- Carbon dioxide was once at Earthen levels > now it exceeds it.
- Methane decays into carbon dioxide.
- Is it possible that organic matter continues to exist on Mars in a seasonal/irregular pattern?
What does the data suggest to you /u/sholladay? That these sensors were broken/contaminated? Or that we are trying our best to parse Mars' veiled past?
It's not irresponsible to consider contamination plainly because it's irrelevant — the tenants of this hypothesis are grounded in chemical observations, not biological observations.

Long answer: if you’re white, under the age of 65, and live in suburban America — then yes, you are more prone to addiction because of your geographic make-up and likely have access to healthcare options that predominantly over prescribe opioids.

I fear that many will not prefer attribute bloat in their markup.
And many are moving to React, does this sort of toolset matter anymore? Not being negative, genuinely serious. Does this tool make sense for apps going forward? To me it seems Tailwind is for little html things.
