You have major phone producers removing 3.5mm jacks to save space, by the aame attitude I think it's safe to assume no one will add a "thick" cooling system.

I absolutely agree that memorization and repetition trump conceptual understanding when dealing with intermediate level of mathematics (I am taking a course on probability and integration and even though I have a good grasp of the basic concepts, if I don't keep up with the nitty gritty details and properties, I completely go astray when the teacher introduces a new concept built using those details.)

I.e. you need to master your tools (theorems, formulas etc) by repeating them so that you can use them to build something. Even if you knew what a hammer is good for (conceptual understanding) but didn't know how to hold it, it would still be pointless.

Yes.

My laptop is long pass the warranty so I did it myself.

HN's own r/shittyaskscience, I like it.

So that's like ~$400M of income per month? Their expenses are mostly royalties and those are probably spare change compared to that income. Not bad!

"Joutnalists" really have their work cut out for them these days, quoting Reddit and HN comments is hard!

I agree that Mint is very much polished but I actually started recommending Elementary over it just because of well it looks, it's quite subjective.

Adobe suite and VS are also the sole reason I have a Windows dual boot set up. Hopefully in the future but I honestly doubt it.

And they say Linux can't be pretty. If only this distribution had more support! The team hs already done wonders making it the most well-polished Linux distribution out there. Perfect for those transitioning from a Mac/Windows.

I've been using it on Freya and it works very well with my Gmail account.

I apologize.

I agree.

>Article doesn't mention any steps the organizers are making to fix it

That's because they are making none. The "steps" (rituals) of Hajj have been the same for over 1400 years, there's no reason for such accidents to happen when you:

Know where people are headed.

When people are headed there.

The number of those people.

And most importantly UNLIMITED fucking ressources!

Knowing that many people lost their lives because incompetent idiots can't manage shit infuriates me and especially when a royal Saudi clerk (can't find an English source) says that the Sub-Saharan victims were better off dying in the "holy lands" than in their messy countries.

I am so glad I've renounced my religion, people often poke fun at the materialism of christianity by mentioning Indulgence and not realize Hajj is the most exploitive religious act anyone can engage in.

In essence, fuck the Saudi Royal Family.
