In the pharmacy in the US there are about 1000 over the counter drugs made if varios combinaciones of about 50 ingredients. Many of them contain acetaminophen. I can see how accidental liver damage can occur.

On DayQuil specifically, the only time I took it I was about as useful as someone stoned. I would have been better off and less dangerous to society if I had just taken rest..

As far as pain management I personally find acetaminophen does nothing for pain and only helps with fever. Similar ibuprofen only helps me with sever muscle pain associated with over exertion or bruising.

Having unfortunately suffered from nerve pain I can say the pain relief opiates provide, even at low levels, is on a whole different level. My experience is that taking them only for pain, when it is unbearable, was not addictive and made pain on the level of I need to go to the hospital bearable.

Just my experience.

I suspect next months article will be pay for performance as measured by lines of code and production issues. Prepare for a 10x increase in code base and zero production changes until after bonuses hit the bank.

Breakfast of Champions by Vonnegut. Like others could change any day you ask. Social commentary is probably at the top followed by well researched recent historical works.

It's hard to reproduce in digital the feeling of checking off the last to-do on a page, ripping it out, balling it up and then making a 3 point trashketball shot to close out a week.

I'm confounded. Backup 30 years and replace Microsoft with at&t and it sounds like the chorus line. Somewhere between agile is bullshit and Microsoft is bullshit is something that makes life and work better for all. Where is it?

My Master's thesis was on high performance distributed computing. And my conclusion was you likely don't have a problem that is hard enough to justify it. Thank you for promoting reality!
